Cubmaster or Den Leader:

Let’s open our meeting today by all of saying the Scout Oath.

We’re going to make the Cub Scout sign and then I’ll say a few words and then

you say them back to me.

On my honor I will do my best

[Let Cub Scouts repeat]

To do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law;


To help other people at all times;


To keep myself physically strong, mentally away and morally straight.


Cubmaster: That’s wonderful. Let’s do it again. [Repeat the Scout Oath]

We will be saying this almost every week and we will talk about what the words

mean. We will do our best to learn the Scout Oath.

Let’s now say the Pledge of Allegiance to start off our fun today.

4. Punch the holes for the yarn.

5. Cut the yarn in half – make 2 10-12” pieces of yarn.

Trusty Tommy (sung to the tune of Yankee Doodle)

Trusty Tommy was a Scout

Loyal to his mother

Helpful to the friends about, and

Friendly to his brother

Courteous to all about

Kind unto the rabbits

Obedient to his father, too, and

Cheerful in his habits -

Thrifty saving for a need

Brave, and not a faker -

Clean in thought and word and deed, and

Reverent to his Maker.

Cub Scouts need to learn the Scout Law – and a song is fun way to learn it. The

only word that isn’t exactly the same in the Scout Law is “Trusty.” In the Scout

Law instead of “Trusty” we use the word “Trustworthy.”

If you are not familiar with the tune of “Yankee Doodle,” you can find a recording

of the song being sung at http://freekidsmusic.com/traditional-childrens-
