Compassion Opening
Lead the following discussion with the Cub Scouts:
Our Core Value for the month of March is “Compassion”.
Who can tell me what they think “Compassion” means?
[Hopefully Cub Scouts will have some idea of what Compassion means. Integrate
as many of their answers as possible while you make sure that they understand
that Compassion means being kind and considerate and showing concern for the
well-being of others.]
How can a Cub Scout have compassion?
[Listen to their responses and remind them that Cub Scouts should be looking for
ways to be helpful and kind to others. During March we will also be reviewing
some first aid information. How are we showing compassion when we give first
aid to someone who is hurt?]
Core Values: Compassion, Responsibility, Respect
First Aid & Safety Review – Tiger, Wolf, Bear
Materials:
-Adhesive bandages for each Tiger, Wolf and Bear so that they can cover their “pretend” cut.
Instructions:
For this activity, this will mostly be a discussion of Wolf Requirements 3b, 3c and Bear
Requirements 11a, 11b, 11c, 11d and 11g.
Wolf 3b - Tell four ways to stop the spread of colds.
1. If you have a cold, stay away from other people.
2. Get lots of rest.
3. Turn your head away from others when you sneeze or cough.
Cover your mouth and nose.
4. Wash your hands often, and always wash them after you sneeze.
[The Cub Scouts probably know this information – it just needs to be
reviewed.]
Wolf 3c – Show what to do for a small cut on your finger.
[Review these steps and then have the Cub Scouts do a role play.]
1. Tell a grown-up about the cut. [Why tell a grown-up?]
2. Let the cut bleed a little. [What will this do?]
3. Wash it with soap and water.
4. Cover it with a stick-on bandage.
Step 3 in the role play can be well done – role play turning on the
water, putting soap on your hands, etc. Don’t forget to turn the
water off!
Step 4 Using a real adhesive bandage (especially for the Wolf Cub Scouts), the Cub Scouts can
learn how to put on a bandage – making sure not to touch the pad, etc.
Bear 11a – Tell what to do in case of an accident in the home. A family member needs help.
Someone’s clothes catch on fire.
What should you do if you are at home with a family member and he or she falls down the
stairs or off of a ladder and gets hurt? Talk it over with an adult and think about these things:
1. Be calm and make the person as comfortable as possible without moving him or her. Don’t
try to move an injured person. You might make the injury worse if you do.
2. GET HELP! If there is someone in the yard or nearby, send that person to get a neighbor or
call for an ambulance. Do it yourself if no one else is around.
3. Stay with the injured person. Use a blanket to keep him or her warm.
What should you do if someone’s clothes catch on fire? Talk it over with an adult.
1. Usually a person panics and starts to run – stop him! Running fans the flames and makes
them spread.
2. If the person can be caught, force him or her to the ground
or floor. Roll the victim over and over to smother the flames.
Wrap them with a rug, blanket, or sweater, working from the
neck down. If you can’t catch the victim, yell “Stop! Stop!
Stop!,” and then thrown yourself on the ground and roll so
the victim can see you and do what you do. Cover your face
so the victim will too.
3. As soon as you can, help the person get to a place where the burned parts of the body can be
covered with clean dressings and treated by a doctor.
What should you do if your own clothes catch on fire?
[This can be role-played.]
1. Stop where you are. Don’t run!
2. Drop to the floor or ground.
3. Roll and cover your face.
4. If you are indoors, grab a rug, blanket or coat and wrap yourself as you roll. Start at your
neck.
What should you do if your house catches on fire?
[This can be role-played.]
1. First, get everyone out of the house! Crawl along the floor to
avoid breathing smoke.
2. Don’t try to put the fire out yourself.
3. Call the fire department from a neighbor’s house.
4. When the firefighters arrive, let them know everyone is out of the house.
Remember: Never go back into a burning building for any reason.
Bear 11b – Tell what to do in case of a water accident.
A boat overturns and you are in it. What do you do?
1. Don’t panic. Grab the boat and stay with it.
2. Help the other passengers to find a place where they can hold on. No one should try to swim
ashore. Stay with the boat; it will support you. Wait for rescuers.
3. If the boat can be turned right side up, get inside and sit as low as possible on the bottom.
Someone slips off a bank into the water. What do you do?
1. Reach the person, if possible, with your hand or leg. Take
off your sweater or shirt and toss one end to the person. You
can also extend a stick, fishing pole, branch or anything that is
handy.
2. Throw something to the person that will float, such as a
cushion, inner tube, plank, or a ring buoy, if available.
Someone falls through the ice. What do you do?
1. Remember, if you get too close, you might break through, too.
2. Find something to throw to the person.
3. Look around for a ladder, a long branch, or anything you can use to reach toward the person.
Lie flat on safe ice and push the item toward the person until he or she can grab it. Then you
can pull him or her out.
4. When the person is out of the water, get him or her to someplace warm.
Bear 11c – Tell what to do in case of a school bus accident.
1. Always know where emergency exits are
whenever you get on a bus.
2. In case of an accident, follow directions from the
driver. If the driver is injured, stay calm. Tell others
to take it easy and get out of the bus through the
emergency exits. Move to the side of the road, away from the traffic.
3. Help the bus driver get everyone out without pushing.
Bear 11d – Tell what to do in case of a car accident.
1. Be calm. Help the adults by doing what you are told.
2. Suggest to the driver that the car be left where it is until
the police come. Ask an adult to direct traffic around it.
3. Don’t go out into the road yourself. Watch for other cars.
All passengers should get out of the car on the side away
from traffic.
4. Don’t move anyone who might be badly injured.
Bear 11g – Complete the Character Connection for Courage.
[This should have be covered the previous week, so a quick review of the courage steps is
probably all that’s needed.]
Courage steps are – Be brave, Be calm, Be clear, Be careful.
If you have time, have the boys act out a situation where they use at least one of these courage
steps.
First Aid & Safety Review – Webelos Scouts
Materials:
Webelos Handbooks (not all information needed for the review – due to the amount of
information - is found here. It is best for the Scouts to have their handbooks so that they can
see all of the diagrams and instructions that are found in the book).
Instructions:
For this activity, this will mostly be a discussion and/or role play of the Readyman Activity
Badge requirements – 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10 and 14. There are requirements where the boys need to
demonstrate and show that they know what they need to do in emergency situations.
Readyman 4 – Demonstrate the Heimlich maneuver and tell when it is used.
Webelos Scout Handbook p. 379-380
If a bit of food sticks in a person’s throat, he will start choking. He may not be able to cough it
up by himself. Unless the person is a baby, use the Heimlich maneuver.
Stand behind the victim and put your arms around him. Make a fist with one
hand just above his belly button. Cover the fist with your other hand. Now make
four quick thrusts inward and upward to force air from his lungs. This should
dislodge the food. If it doesn’t, repeat until the food is
dislodged.
If the person is too big for you to do the Heimlich
maneuver standing up, have him lie down face up. Put one
open hand just above his belly button and put the other
hand over the first. Make four quick, upward thrusts.
Do not practice the thrust part of the Heimlich maneuver on a person. Thrusts should be used
only for actual choking cases.
Readyman 5 – Show what to do for these “hurry cases”:
-Serious bleeding
-Stopped breathing
-Internal poisoning
-Heart attack
Webelos Handbook p.371-376
First Aid for Hurry Cases
If a person cuts a leg and blood is oozing out, he or she needs first aid but isn’t going to die. A
broken arm is a serious injury, but it won’t kill.
Hurry cases are different. Unless you act fast and give the right first aid, the victim may die
within a few minutes. The four hurry cases are
-Breathing has stopped. It must be restarted quickly.
-Blood is spurting from a wound. The bleeding must be stopped quickly.
-Poison has been swallowed. The poison must be made harmless.
-Heart attack or stroke. Get help quickly.
See pages 372 -376 in the Webelos Handbook for all information on rescue breathing and
stopping severe bleeding, poisoning and heart attack. The information is very important and
the boys must be able to show what to do for hurry cases.
Readyman 6 – Show how to treat shock.
Webelos Handbook pages 376-377
When a person is injured or under great stress, his circulatory system might not provide enough
blood to all parts of his body. This is called shock. The person will feel weak. His face may get
pale. His skin will feel cold and clammy. He may shiver or vomit.
Don’t wait for these signals to appear. Give any badly injured person first aid for shock.
-Have him lie down.
-Raise his feet slightly, unless you think he has injuries to his head, neck, back, hips or legs. If
you don’t know, have him lie flat.
-If he is not awake, turn him on his side, not on his back.
-If the weather is cool, cover him. If it’s hot, don’t.
-Call for emergency help immediately. He needs expert medical care as soon as possible.
Readyman 7 – Show first aid for the following: cuts and scratches, burns and scalds, choking,
blisters on the hand and foot, tick bites, bites and stings, poisonous snakebite, nosebleed,
frostbite, sunburn.
Webelos Handbook pages 377-383.
Readyman 8 – Tell what steps must be taken for a safe swim with your Webelos den, pack,
family or other group. Explain the reasons for the buddy system.
Webelos Handbook pages 384-385
Swimming is a lot of fun, but water can be a dangerous place if you aren’t prepared.
Scouting has a checklist called the Safe Swim Defense plan to make sure you are prepared. The
plan has eight points.
1. An adult is in charge. Follow the adult’s orders.
2. Physical fitness. Each swimmer must provide a current health history from his parent,
guardian, or doctor.
3. Safe swim area. The area is checked for underwater dangers. One area not more than 3½
feet deep is marked off for non-swimmers. Another area is marked for beginners; it can be a
little deeper. A third area of deep water is marked for good swimmers.
4. Lifeguards. Trained lifeguards are on shore, watching everybody who is in the water.
5. Lookout. A lookout is also on shore to direct the lifeguards if a person needs help.
6. Ability groups. The leaders divide the swimmers into three groups – 1) non-swimmers; 2)
beginners, who can swim at least 50 feet; and 3) swimmers, who can swim 100 yards and float.
Each group stays in its own area.
7. Buddy system. Each person is paired with another person who has the same swimming
ability. They go into the water together, stay together, and come out together.
8. Discipline. Everyone agrees to follow water safety rules. Everyone obeys the lifeguards or
other supervisors.
Readyman 10 – Explain the importance of wearing safety equipment when participating in
sports activities (skating, skateboarding, etc.)
Webelos Handbook page 387.
For all sports, it is important to wear equipment that will help prevent injury. For example,
during all street or pavement skating activities, participants should wear properly fitted helmets
that meet American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standards, padded gloves, wrist
supports, and elbow and knee pads. Your parent, guardian, or Webelos den leader can help you
learn what safety equipment is needed for each sport you want to learn.
Readyman 14 – Explain six safety rules you should remember when riding in a car.
Webelos Handbook page 390.
1. Always use your seat belt. You are much less likely to get hurt in an accident if you are
wearing a seat belt. In some states, wearing a seat belt is the law.
2. Don’t talk to the driver in heavy traffic. He or she must concentrate on driving.
3. Do talk to the driver when he or she is tired. It will help keep the driver alert.
4. Keep younger children from quarreling or jumping around in the car. Be sure they keep their
seat belts fastened or are in the car seats with the harness fastened.
5. Lock the doors. Then younger children won’t be able to open them accidentally.
6. Keep hands, head, and feet inside the car – even when it is parked.
7. Don’t ride or carry passengers in the bed of a pickup truck.
First Aid Baseball
Materials:
Question cards
Base sheets (Home plate, 1st
base, 2nd
base, 3rd
base –
placed on the floor as a baseball diamond)
Pencil and paper (scorekeeping)
Instructions:
Divide the Cub Scouts into equal (or mostly equal) teams. For every two teams
playing you will also need an umpire (to determine if an answer is right or wrong
and to determine advancing to bases in a partial answer situation) and a
scorekeeper. The umpire and scorekeeper could be the same person.
Game Play:
1.Determine which team will bat (or answer questions) first.
2. The team up to bat first stands behind home plate. The first player in line bats
first.
3. The first player chooses a card without reading it and hands the card to the
umpire.
4. The umpire reads the question on the card to the batter.
5. The batter does his best to answer the question without any help from other
team members.
6. The umpire decides if the question has been answered correctly or not. All
decisions of the umpire are final. Some of the questions have multiple part
answers. The umpire can decide to let the runner advance a base or two if he gets
part of the answer.
7. If the batter answers the question correctly, the batter advances the number of
bases indicated by the umpire. If he answers incorrectly – the scorekeeper
records an out for the batting team and the next player comes to “bat”.
8. If the batter answers a question correctly and there is another player on base
ahead of him, everyone on base advances the number of bases indicated on the
card.
9. When a player reaches home plate, the scorekeeper records a run for the team.
10. When a team has three outs – then it is the other team’s turn to bat.
11. Play for a certain amount of innings or for a certain amount of time. Make
sure that each team bats in each inning played.
12. The team with the most runs scored, wins the game!
Variations: This game can be played with any type of question – not just first aid
questions.

Cubmaster:
Today we’ve spent quite a bit of time talking about
how to help people when they are hurt and being safe.
In Cub Scouts we want to be as safe as possible. We have safety rules for many of
the activities that we might do where someone could get hurt – like bicycling and
swimming. You probably have safety rules at school and at home.
We need to make sure that we are following Akela wherever we are. Are we
being safe and following safety rules? Can we be better in following those rules so
that we don’t get hurt and so our friends and family members don’t get hurt?
Have a safe week, Cub Scouts!
