Cub Scout Art Projects

Camping Visor
Keep the sun out of your Cub Scout's eyes with a personalized plastic visor. Decorate a plain plastic visor with nature-themed stickers. Add your Cub Scout's name with alphabet stickers for easy identification in case it is lost.
CD Campfire
Turn an old CD into a campfire decoration for your Cub Scout's desk or dresser. Cover the CD with a thick layer of glue and sprinkle with sand until coated. Shake off the excess. Glue small stones around the border of the CD to form a circle. Arrange 4-inch pieces of sticks into a tent structure and glue into place. Allow drying for two hours. Add flames to the center of the stick formation by twisting small pieces of red and yellow tissue paper around toothpicks to form flames. Glue into place.
Rain Poncho
You never know when the clouds will unleash a rainstorm while your Cub Scout is on a camping trip. Send him out prepared with a personalized emergency rain poncho. Decorate the outside of the poncho pouch with foam insect stickers and your scout's name spelled out with alphabet stickers. Pierce a small hole on the top of the poncho pouch, careful not to damage the poncho inside, and hang a small, clip-style keychain from the hole. Clip the poncho onto your Cub Scout's backpack for easy retrieval.
Foam Frog Kerchief Slider
Cut a frog shape out of green craft foam and use a black permanent marker to add features such as eyes and a mouth. Outline the border of the frog for emphasis. Glue to a PVC ring with a hot glue gun. Slip it over your Cub Scout's kerchief the next time he puts on his uniform.
Camp Memory Box
Keep your Cub Scout's memories fresh with a camp memory box. Paint a ready-made wooden box and lid with acrylic paint. Glue wooden alphabet tiles onto the lid to spell out "Camp Memories" or another phrase. Allow for drying. Your scout can save leaves, stones and anything else that he finds while enjoying the great outdoors in the box.
