SCOTD - Genius Challenge

Today's Corona Cub Challenge is to gather random items for a REPURPOSING CHALLENGE!



Your challenge is to take a plastic grocery bag and go on an all-out treasure hunt through your house to find items that you can repurpose into something creative!  Look at the bottom of your toy box, in the junk drawer, garage, recycle bin...

Once you've gathered your treasures, let a parent or guardian inspect them to ensure they are not something critical to the functionality of your home...

Take those items, combine them, cut them, glue them, screw them together, tape them, paint them.... Make them into anything to do with... Scouts... you could make a camp site, a recycled cub scout, something representative of Leave No Trace... really the sky is the limit! 

I can’t wait to see what amazing and GENIUS inventions our Cub Scouts will come up with!
We will have your den tables set up at the April Pack meeting to display. Bring your creation and use the appropriate den level table to display your work. This is a lot of fun for everyone!
