Directions

Before the meeting:

Identify a safe area free of obstacles where the den can conduct the yo-yo Adventure.
Become familiar with the safety rules for using a yo-yo.
- Only use a yo-yo in a safe area where there are no hazards or other people. Say, “Drawing your circle on the ground is one way to do this.”
- Before you throw, always make sure your yo-yo is attached to the string and the string is securely attached to your finger.
- Be careful not to hit anyone or anything with your yo-yo.

During the meeting:

Discuss with the Cub Scouts these basic safety rules:
- Only use a yo-yo in a safe area where there are no hazards or other people. Say, “Drawing your circle on the ground is one way to do this.”
- Before you throw, always make sure your yo-yo is attached to the string and the string is securely attached to your finger.
- Be careful not to hit anyone or anything with your yo-yo.
Hand each Cub Scout a 3-foot piece of regular string or yarn.
Using the sidewalk chalk have each Cub Scout draw a circle on the ground.
- The Cub Scout will hold the chalk and one end of the string in the same hand and draw the circle while an adult or den chief holds the other end of the string.
- When finished, the Cub Scout will have drawn a “safe circle” in which to use the yo-yo.
