  • Cub Scouts and adult partners  

Before the meeting 

  1. Learn about smoke detectors from the Consumer Product Safety Commission.  
  2. The day before the meeting ask parents, legal guardians, and adult partners to be familiar with the layout of their home and the location of smoke detectors.  Let them know that the den activity will include making a map of the building the Cub Scout lives in and smoke detectors locations.   
  3. Set up the meeting location so Cub Scouts and adult partners can work on the activity together.  
  4. Identify the type of smoke detectors in your meeting location and how to test them. 

During the meeting: 

  1. Share with the den the importance of smoke detectors.  Point out the smoke detectors in your meeting location and if possible, demonstrate how to test them.  Share with Cub Scouts and adult partners that they should be familiar with the type of smoke detectors they have at home and how to test them and if needed when to change the batteries.  
  2. When everyone has completed the activity, the Cub Scouts work with their adult partners to create a map of the building they live in using the graph paper.  Have them make a circle where the smoke detectors in their home are located.
