Kindergarten

Lion

Your child starts at the rank for the grade they are in now. The year is built from short adventures, not a textbook. Every den begins by learning the Scout Oath, the Scout Law, and how their den works.

A parent comes every time

Kindergarten Lions attend with a parent or other adult partner. You do the games, the walk, and the projects together. It is not a drop-off program.

The den meets on a time those families choose. Email us your child's grade and we will tell you when the Lions get together.

What Lions do and learn

How the den works

They learn the Scout Oath, the Scout Law, and the simple signs and words Cub Scouts use. This is the Bobcat adventure, and it comes first.

Moving and playing

Fun on the Run is active games. Lions practice using their bodies, taking turns, and having fun while they get tired in a good way.

What to do if they feel unsafe

Lion's Roar is personal safety. They practice who to tell and what to do when something does not feel right.

Their own family

Lion's Pride is about home. Families talk about their own traditions and faith in the way that fits them. That part stays with you.

Helping

King of the Jungle is a job that helps at home, plus a simple service project with the den.

A short walk outside

Mountain Lion is a walk of about 20 minutes. Lions notice animals, and they sort what is natural from what people made. They also learn the six things to bring on a walk.

The den also picks at least two extras, such as camping, fishing, building, a race, or another outdoor skill. Those are chosen by the families in the den. They are not a set pack calendar.
