Note: In May, 2021, BSA announced that Four of the Tiger elective adventures would be retired on May 31, 2022.

First graders work toward the Tiger rank. The Tiger rank is earned by completing seven adventures as described below.

Although participation with an adult partner is required for all Tiger awards, recognition items are for the Scouts only.

  1. Complete each of the six required Adventures.
  2. In addition to the six required adventures listed above, complete at least one elective Adventure of your den's or family's choosing.
  3. With your parent, guardian, or other caring adult, complete the exercises in the pamphlet entitled How to Protect Your Children From Child Abuse: A Parent's Guide.
  4. Earn the Cyber Chip award for your age. (The Cyber Chip portion of this requirement may be waived by your parent or guardian if you do not have access to the internet.)
    Watch the Protect Yourself Rules video for 1st Grade, Tiger.
    (The video is located at https://vimeo.com/325064660 and can be watched on-line or downloaded and viewed off-line.)
    OR Earn the Protect Yourself Rules Preview Adventure for Tiger

Tiger Cub Scouts may also complete the Protect Yourself Rules Preview Adventure for requirement 2, or the Cyber Chip requirement (4) may be replaced with earning the Protect Yourself Rules Adventure. If Cub Scouts use the Protect Yourself Rules Adventure in place of the Cyber Chip requirement 4 the adventure can not be used as an elective for rank requirement 2. .
