description:
Scouts practice winter rescue techniques by simulating saving someone who has fallen through thin ice. A volunteer lies in the snow about twenty feet from the 'shore' while the patrol races to tie several lengths of rope together and toss it to the 'victim' to pull them to safety.

rules:
Have a volunteer lay in the snow about twenty feet from the 'shore.' The rest of the patrol must race to tie several lengths of rope together and toss it to the 'victim' before pulling him to 'shore.' Optionally, allow the victim to sit on an inner tube for added adventure.

Joc de comunicare în cerc în care un obiect care simulează microfonul este transmis de la un copil la altul. Se permite a vorbi doar la microfon. Participanții decid singuri dacă vor să ia cuvântul. Se discută pe subiectul sugerat de cel care transmite microfonul.

rules:
Participanții formează un cerc. Microfonul (un obiect ce poate îndeplini această funcție) este transmis de la un copil la altul. Se permite a vorbi doar la microfon. Participanții decid singuri dacă vor sau nu vor să ia cuvântul. Se discută doar cu persoana care transmite microfonul (A primește microfonul de la B și discută despre subiectul propus de A, apoi B îi transmite microfonul lui C, discutând pe marginea subiectului sugerat de B etc.).

Joc dinamic asemănător scaunelor muzicale cu cercuri de gimnastică. Perechile sar în sală iar când muzica se oprește, formează echipe mai mari și încearcă să încapă cu toții în cercuri.

rules:
Participanții formează perechi în câte un cerc de gimnastică. Când pornește muzica, sar prin sală menținând cercul. Când muzica se oprește, două perechi mai apropiate formează o echipă în interiorul celor două cercuri. Procesul continuă. Varianta: cercuri pe jos, participanții sar în jur și intră când se oprește muzica, câte un cerc scăzut din joc.

variations:
Cercurile pot fi plasate pe jos; participanții sar în jur și intră în interior când se oprește muzica. De fiecare dată un cerc se scoate din joc.

source_excerpt:
Participanţii formează perechi şi fi ecare se plasează în interiorul unui cerc de gimnastică. Când animatorul include muzica, perechile trebuie să sară prin sală, menţinându-se în interiorul cercului.

description:
Doi echipe se aranjează față în față. Animatorul explică gesturile: prințesa - mâinile pe talie cu mișcări din șolduri spunând 'Ho-ho-ho'; cavalerul - piciorul drept înainte și degetul arătător ca o sabie strigând 'Ha!'; balaurul - mâinile ridicate cu urlet 'U-u-u!'. Regulile de câștig: prințesa > cavalerul, cavalerul > balaurul, balaurul > prințesa. Echipele aleg în secret un personaj și câștigătoarea prinde membrii celeilalte.

rules:
Prințesa bate cavalerul (îl seduce), cavalerul bate balaurul (îl biruie), balaurul bate prințesa (o fură); echipele aleg secret câte două personaje; la semnal arată personajul; echipa cu personajul mai puternic prinde adversarii; se repetă de mai multe ori.

source_excerpt:
Regulile: prinţesa este mai puternică decât cavalerul, pentru că îl poate seduce, cavalerul este mai puternic decât balaurul pentru că îl poate birui în luptă, iar balaurul este mai puternic decât prinţesa deoarece o poate fura.

Joc competitiv cu paraşuta în care mai multe echipe încearcă să treacă mingea proprie de pe partea adversă a paraşutei, împiedicând mingile celorlalți să treacă pe partea lor.

rules:
Ia câteva mingi ușoare, preferabil de culori diferite. Ajută participanții să formeze atâtea echipe câte mingi sunt și să se aranjeze în jurul paraşutei. Fiecare echipă va avea o minge.

Activitate prin care părinții și copiii sărbătoresc împreună etapele școlare (10 zile, 20 de zile, 100 de zile etc.). Se strâng aprecierile, desenele și realizările creative ale copilului, se expun, se listează aspectele nereușite și se caută soluții prin joc de rol sau joc de păpuși, se fixează un obiectiv pentru următoarele zile și se stabilește o zi de sărbătoare.

rules:
Se strâng toate aprecierile, desenele, realizările originale și creative ale copiilor și calificativele obținute și se expun (în vitrină, într-un tablou sau se poate înălța un zmeu pentru reușite). Se fixează momentul listării aspectelor nereușite și se caută soluții (joc de păpuși – joc de rol; o seară în mini-cort). Se fixează un obiectiv pentru următoarele 10 zile de școală (desenat pe o hârtie, lipit pe ușă), se fac invitații și se fixează ziua, data sărbătoririi – de preferat sâmbăta sau duminica.

Joc de concurs în trei participanți (părinte, bunic/ă și copil) în care se face patul cronometrat. Scopul este de a motiva copilul să învețe să facă patul, transformând o rutină zilnică într-o competiție amuzantă.

rules:
Părintele, bunicul și copilul au de făcut patul. Se stabilește un avans de X minute pentru copil. Părintele face patul insistând asupra pașilor pe care trebuie să-i urmeze cel mic, apoi se verifică fiecare aspect (să nu fie cute, să fie bine întinsă cuvertura, să fie perna deasupra/dedesubt – nu mai mult de 3 condiții). Se dă startul. Părintele face patul și este cronometrat de copil. Verifică, ambii, respectarea condițiilor. Patul este deranjat și încearcă cel mic. Se cronometrează și se adaugă avansul. Clasamentul trebuie să-i permită copilului accesul la a doua poziție. Jocul poate fi reluat săptămânal.

Joc în care copiii sar coarda și, pe parcurs, mărturisesc adulților o boacănă (greșeală) pe care au comis-o, specificând și ce sarcină corectivă vor îndeplini. Coarda în mișcare servește ca element de securizare emoțională în momentul destăinuirii.

rules:
Copiii sar coarda și, pe rând, mărturisesc ce boacănă au făcut. Destăinuirea se termina cu angajamentul de a sări 2 minute și de a îndeplini o sarcină reparatorie (de exemplu, cules prunele sau dus gâștele la apă). Adulții dau din cap și îi încurajează.

source_excerpt:
Coarda este un joc axat, în primul rând, pe mișcare, coordonare motrică și vizuală. Pentru a face o mărturisire suportabilă, când eram mici, eu și verii mei săream coarda și spuneam ce boacănă am făcut.

Tehnică de supraviețuire și orientare în pădure prin interpretarea corectă a marcajelor forestiere. Turistul rătăcit poate folosi benzile vopsite pe copaci pentru a găsi drumul: o bandă verticală roșie indică limita de parcelă și duce spre un pârâu, două benzi orizontale roșii separate de alb marchează intersecții de linii parcelare, iar litera H indică limita dintre două ocoale silvice (cumpăna apelor).

rules:
O bandă verticală roșie pe scoarța copacului indică limita de parcelă — urmând-o se ajunge la un pârâu, iar urmând cursul pârâului se ajunge la o localitate. Două benzi orizontale roșii separate de o bandă albă (+ număr) indică intersecții de linii parcelare, găsite pe culme sau vale. Litera H roșie indică limita dintre două ocoale silvice, întâlnită numai pe culme, marcând cumpăna apelor dintre două bazine hidrografice.

description:
Campers collect at least two leaves each on a nature walk. Back at camp, leaves are placed between squares of muslin fabric. Campers pound the leaf through the fabric until the color comes through, creating a leaf print they can take home. Leaders explain the concept of chlorophyll.

rules:
Take groups on a walk and have everyone pick up at least two leaves. Hand out squares of muslin fabric. Place fabric with leaf on a flat surface. Pound leaf until color comes through. Remove leaf remnants. The color comes out because the leaves hold color inside like a water balloon - when hit, they break and color comes out.

variations:
Can also be done with flowers or any other plants. Pound around the edges of the leaf and flip to pound from the other side to ensure the shape is complete.

description:
Girls learn to walk quietly in the woods using a technique from outside of foot to inside. One player is the sleeping animal and others try to sneak up; the animal points towards noises, eliminating those caught in the flashlight beam.

rules:
Teach girls to walk quietly going from the outside of the foot to the inside, slowly. Choose a sleeping animal (blindfolded, center) and a referee. Others spread in a circle and try to sneak up on the animal. If the animal hears noise, she points that way and referee determines if someone was caught. The caught sneaker sits out. Game continues until all predators are caught or one tags the animal.

source_excerpt:
One person is chosen to be a sleeping animal, and one person is a referee. Everyone else spreads out in a circle then tries to sneak up on the animal. As the animal hears a noise she can point towards it (without opening her eyes) and the referee determines whether the animal has heard someone sneaking up on them.

description:
A traditional Canadian camp bread with historical roots in the fur trade era. Two recipes are provided: Tiger's Bannock (tried and true) and Campfire Bannock. Can be made in a frying pan or in campfire coals.

rules:
Tiger's Bannock: Mix dry ingredients thoroughly then rub in butter until well incorporated. Add enough water to make a thick dough. Form into 1-inch thick cakes and place in greased cast iron frying pan. Cook on low heat until done on both sides, or prop the pan in the coals of the campfire.

Campfire Bannock: Mix dry ingredients thoroughly and stir in enough water to make a thick batter that pours out level. Mix rapidly with spoon until smooth. Pour into large greased frying pan and set on hot coals. Turn when bottom is brown. Cook until no dough sticks to sliver of wood poked into the middle.

variations:
For variety add dry fruits, raisins, blueberries etc. For pancakes, add a couple of eggs, omit the butter and substitute water for milk. For native style use half white flour and half corn flour. Individual portions can be measured into Ziploc bags and kneaded to avoid mess.

source_excerpt:
Bannock is a truly Canadian food and all Canadians should have the experience of making it. Our country was settled by many different ethnic groups therefore there isn't a single traditional recipe.
