What do Squirrels get up to?
Squirrels is all about having fun, making friends and discovering the world around us!
For children aged 4 to 6, it’s the start of their Scouting adventure. Each week, we get together in our Squirrel Drey for a fun-filled session that usually includes:
-
Colouring and a song to get everyone settled and ready.
-
Our main activity or topic, where we might get creative, explore nature, learn a new skill or work towards earning badges.
-
A fun game to finish, if there’s time!
Along the way, there’s plenty to discover, learn and achieve.
Make friends and have fun
Being a Squirrel is about belonging. Children make new friends, learn to play together, take turns and discover how much fun it can be to be part of a team. There’s plenty of laughter, imagination and opportunity for everyone to join in.
Explore, discover and try new things
Every week brings a new adventure! We try all sorts of activities, from making things and exploring nature to learning new skills and discovering their community and the world around us. There are also opportunities to enjoy adventures beyond our usual meetings, including exciting sleepovers and camp!
Little adventures, big achievements
We celebrate every achievement, big or small! From earning badges and learning new skills to helping a friend or trying something for the first time, we celebrate every step along the way. Sleepovers are a brilliant example, giving Squirrels the chance to spend time away from home, build independence, grow in confidence and make special memories with their friends. Squirrels discover that they can do more than they think!
