GATHERING ACTIVITIES

School of Fish

Santa Clara County Council

Pin pictures of fish on people as they arrive.  Have cutouts of swordfish, tuna, trout, catfish, etc.  On a signal, they are to see which “school of fish” can assemble first.

GUESS THE FISH EGGS

Circle Ten Council

As they enter, have participants guess the number of "fish eggs" (small jelly beans) in a jar. The winner is awarded the jar during the closing ceremony.

FISHY APPLAUSE

Circle Ten Council

Have each person reach into a large tub covered with Blue saran wrap (slit cut in middle for hand to go in) and catch one fish. Write names of several different fish on the back of the fish cutouts “ bass, swordfish, tuna, catfish, trout, flounder, squid, rockfish, salmon. Tell everyone to find other "fish" of the same kind. Have each "school" create an applause about their fish, to be performed at appropriate times during the pack meeting.

Mink in a Maze

Santa Clara County Council

Every wild animal must live in its chosen habitat.  The mink prefers a riparian habitat.  Can you help it find its way to the pond at the center of the maze?

 

You may wish to copy this maze down and enlarge it CD
