PARENT'S ROLE

---

Parent's participation is very important to encourage your child's continuation in Scouting:

• it shows your child that you support their participation in Scouting

• you free up more leaders to provide activities to Beaver safely

• you can share your knowledge and personal experience with Beavers in the Colony

 

There are many ways to participate:

• As a Leader

• Helping out in the planning and delivery of an activity such as :

• Story Telling

• Songs

• Music

• Puppetry

• Games

• Crafts

• Helping out at outdoor activity :

• supervising Beavers during a Visit, Hike, Picnic

• preparation and serving meals at sleepovers

• Others :

• Organisation of and/or demonstration at a special event, e.g. Chinese New Year Family Night

• Photography

• Web Design

• Research for Activities

• Organising Car Pools

Even when parents are not able to support Scouting activities in person, they can help achieving our Goal by :

• arriving and departing on time

• ensuring and helping them to put on their uniform properly

• ensuring their uniform is in proper condition

• helping Beavers learn to keeps their craft equipment in the expected working orders

• encouraging Beavers to carry their own belongings

• encouraging them to tell you about their Scouting experience
