Wolf Requirement- Running with the Pack

Running with the Pack

Running With the Pack

* 2017 BSA Modifications are exactly the same as in the handbook for Running with the Pack

 Complete the following requirements.

 Requirement 1. Play catch with someone in your den or family who is standing 5 steps away from you. Play until you can throw and catch successfully at this distance. 

Take a step back and see if you can improve your throwing and catching skills.

( Easy- had our boys do this with a ball from the dollar store . Did not take long.)

 2. Practice balancing as you walk forward, backward, and sideways. 

(did this at Camp on a tree that was down. The boys loved it.)

3. Practice flexibility and balance by doing a front roll, a back roll, and a frog stand. 

( Had the boys do this during a den meeting. Easy and they were laughing at how they looked.)

4. Play a sport or game with your den or family, and show good sportsmanship.

(We started playing this during a den meeting with just wolves but others started joining in .)

 5. Do at least two of the following: frog leap, inchworm walk, kangaroo hop, or crab walk.

( We did this at the same time as the front roll, back roll, ect from Req 3.)

 6. Demonstrate what it means to eat a balanced diet by helping to plan a healthy menu for a meal for your den or family. Make a shopping list of the food used to prepare the meal.

(My son decided on grilled chicken, corn on the cob, and salad. )

After that, your child will get the Running with the Pack  beltloop. 

Remember, have fun doing it!
