Here's a taste of the activities you can look forward to trying at this stage. Ask your leader about all the things you'll need to do to earn this badge.
Happy feet - Don’t let tired feet or being wet and cold stop you from exploring! Find out how to stay cosy and comfortable on your adventures.
A country walk - Find out how to keep you, others and animals safe. Grab your picnic, you’re off to the countryside!
Naughty elephants squirt water - If you don’t know which way you’re going, then you’ll get lost. Make a compass and lead the way.
Mapping it out - Maps help us explore cities and countryside but only if you know how to read them. Discover what they look like and how to use one.
Custom of customs - Think you’re a holiday packing pro? Get your suitcase ready and find out!
