 Games used:

1.  BLUEBOTTLES (Steam release)

This game could be used for Caracal to get to know Jungle Animals or by the whole Pack as a revision game. Cubs walk round in a large circle chanting “Mowgli went to the jungle and what did Mowgli see?”  The Old Wolf or Cub Instructor shouts various jungle animals:

E.G. Bandarlog (Cubs continue in circle behaving like monkeys)

       Kaa               “          “       “    “          “        “a snake

       Hathi                                                               elephant

       Akela                                                               Wolf chants so on until the leader shouts “BLUEBOTTLES!” and all the cubs run in all directions because the Old Wolf then chases them with a whack-am stick (rolled up newspaper in a stocking) to see who he/she can catch. Then continue with the animals alternating with the bluebottles.

2.  RELAY GAME:  SURVIVAL

Equipment: Different colour cards, each colour representing a hat, knife, 1^st Aid Kit, matches, blanket and map – write name on reverse. All the cards are scattered around the hall blank side up. Cubs stand in relay formation at one end of hall and take turns to run up and collect one card at a time. The aim is to collect at least one of each colour representing the most important survival items.


Sense Training :- 

Each six is given the sheet of paper with all the jungle book characters coloured in, standing around council rock. They then have a few minutes to look at the names of the characters on the sheet and where the animals are placed. They will then line up in sixers in relay formation. Each six will be given the same picture except the animals and their names are missing. The Cubs then use the loose pictures of the animals and their names and place them in the correct place. The first six completed with the most correct placements, wins. It is basically a visual Kims game using the jungle book characters. You can choose not to use the names if your pack is young and then only use the pictures.

K-I-N-G spells king

The adult in charge will be at the one end of the hall, with the cubs standing at the opposite end of the hall. The adult will have their back to the cubs that will call out K-I-N-G spells king, as she is saying that the cubs are running towards her. As she says king they have to freeze, anyone who isn’t frozen goes back to the beginning, and they must touch the wall to be king. You can use any four letter word, e.g.: pack.

Cat and Mouse:

Cubs stand in a circle. One cub is a mouse inside the circle and another cat on the outside of the circle. The circle cubs hold hands to form arches for the cat and mouse to get in or out, they choose who to let in and keep out, the object is for the cat to catch the mouse. For cubs you can make the mouse Mowgli and the cat Shere khan.
