If your Cub is interested in working on an activity outside of the meeting, or you want to make it a family project, talk over your plans with the leaders. They can provide useful tips and tell you how well it fits into the weekly programs. Your talents, hobbies and interests are great program assets worth sharing with children. Find out how you can become a resource for the pack's programs. This will let you spend valuable time with your child and share experience.
Cubs really enjoy showing off for an adult family member who attends a meeting.
This sense of pride helps strengthen adult-child relations. When your child joins Cubs, you become part of the pack's support team. Become a leader. Leadership is fun and exciting. As well, the friendship and camaraderie you'll share with other parents can lead to long-lasting relationships and memories.
