December 2023: Please note that the Cub program will be changing as of June 1, 2024. Some of these items may be able to still be used, but they will not follow the program exactly. Perhaps they can be a spring board for those who are planning their Cub years.
In high school, I was voted “Most Likely to Finish Her Life Three Years Before She Dies.” Once I set my mind to a project, I want to get it done. So it’s no surprise that in January of my Wolf year I went ahead and started planning for my Bear year.
As I have not gone through this myself just yet, I don’t have a lot of advice to offer. However, the plan covers everything in the modified requirements handout plus a few extra awards the Cubs can earn.

Update August 2022:
Please note that as of May 31, 2022, 19 Cub adventures have been retired. You will need to remove these and replace with other activities or pack outings. I would recommend looking at including the age-appropriate religious emblem program that fits your unit if parents agree.
The retired Bear adventures are:
Beat of the Drum
World of Sound
Make It Move
Robotics
***
Supplemental Links and Materials
Baloo the Builder/Marble Madness
Make it Move
Whittling Chip
