Tiger Scout
This is the first step of Cub Scouting. As a Tiger, our motto is Search, Discover, Share. We go on field trips "Go and See It"s to check out local places; we participate in family activities and den activites. At the end of our Tiger year, we earn our Bobcat badge as we move upward into a Wolf den.
Wolf Scout
This step is where many boys join Cub Scouting. As a Wolf, we learn to listen to our Akela. The Wolf Book has twelve achievements for us to complete to earn our Wolf badge--things such as learning about tools and the flag; testing our skills in outdoor activities; starting a collection; and learning about cooking. After we earn our Wolf, we can continue to learn and earn arrow points until we graduate into a Bear den.
Bear Scout
This is an exciting step to start at. As a Bear, we are really branching out and exploring all sorts of neat things--the Bear Book has 24 different achievements available, 12 of which we need to complete to earn our Bear badge. Some of the achievements include exploring our family's heritage, more flag etiquette, simple cooking, model building, and knot tying. After we earn our Bear, we can also earn arrow points until we graduate into a Webelos den.
Webelos Scout
This is the two year phase of Cub Scouting that prepares boys for Boy Scouts. As a Webelo, there are 20 different activity pins that can be earned, as well as an award called the Arrow of Light. The various pins that we can earn include such diverse activities as forester, geologist, scientist, communicator, craftsman, fitness, and aquanaut. These activities are even more challenging, but are especially geared towards what we need to know to earn merit badges in Boy Scouts.
