Activity ideas
Listed under each requirement
Step 1 – Get to know your body
Record something about yourself (hair/eye color, favorites, what makes you feel happy/hungry/tired/nervous/sad/angry/thirsty, OR how are you unique) and share.
Step 2 – Eat and play in a healthy way
Try a new healthy habit (3 new foods, 3 types of exercises, OR a week of no sweetened soda/juice).
Step 3 – Find out how your body works
Learn a body fact (why tummies might hurt, why are temps high/low, OR how does the body make it’s own bandages).
Step 4 – Know what to do if something bugs you
Find one way to create happiness when feeling down (happy box, track feelings, OR movement for 5 minutes).
Step 5 – Meet a health helper
Meet a someone trained in healthcare (doctor, dentist, optometrist, nurse, counselor, EMT, OR firefighter).
GSUSA recommended a guest speaker.
- The Troop First Aider who has their current CPR Certification qualifies. Have them lead the meeting or one of the activities and answer any health questions the scouts have.
