  • Each Cub Scout will need their Tiger handbook
  • Scissors, enough to share

Before the meeting:

  1. Prepare meeting space for Cub Scouts and adult partners to make a craft.
  2. Use the Tiger handbook on page 5.

During the meeting:

  1. Have Cub Scouts open their Tiger handbook to page 5
  2. With help from their adult partner have Cub Scouts make a chatter box of the Scout Oath
  3. Cut out the chatterbox on page five.
  4. Start with the print side down.
  5. Crease a square piece of paper diagonally from each corner. Fold the top right corner to touch the bottom left corner. Crease the fold with your finger and then unfold it so your sheet is flat again. Then take the top left corner and fold it over to the bottom right corner.
  6. Fold the paper in half from each side. Bring the top edge of the paper to the bottom edge and crease the fold.
  7. Unfold the paper so it’s flat again and rotate it 90 degrees. Fold the new top edge of the paper to the bottom to crease it and then flatten it out again. Your paper will have four lines intersecting in the middle.
  8. Bring the corners to the center of the paper. Start with one of the bottom corners and fold it to the middle of the paper where the creases intersect.
  9. Press down on the fold with a fingernail so it stays in place.
  10. Turn paper 90 degrees and fold the other bottom corner toward the center. Keep rotating and folding paper until you’ve made a smaller square containing four triangles.
  11. Flip the paper over and fold each corner to the center again.
  12. Have Cub Scouts and adult partners take turns picking colors and numbers to become familiar with the Scout Oath. Have them continue until they have completed the Scout Oath.
