The Cub Pack

Cub Scouts, Cubs or Wolf Cubs are programs associated with Scouting for young children usually between 5 and 10, depending on the national organization to which they belong. A participant in the program is called a Cub. A group of Cubs is called a ‘Wolf Pack’. The Wolf Cub program was originated by The Boy Scouts Association in the United Kingdom in 1916 to provide a program for boys who were too young to be Boy Scouts It was adopted by many other Scouting organizations. The Wolf Cub scheme was started by The Boy Scouts Association in 1916, nine years after the idea of the Boy Scouts was conceived, in order to cater to the many younger boys who were too young to be Boy Scouts.It was originally a program of fun and games for children. Then the program grew with the idea of “fun and Learn” for boys aged 5 to 10 years. Hence a Cub gets satisfaction for meeting challenges, and overcoming them with learnings, discovering and mastering new skills. In the process , the child learns self-confidence and develops bond with other children.
