Ann-Marie’s challenge is part of the Team Leader Challenge badge for Cubs and Scouts and the Explorer Scout Young Leader scheme. For Cubs and Scouts it is to teach (help develop) a scouting skill to a person in your household. For the Young Leaders it is to produce a video that teaches a scouting skill. We are looking forward to seeing all your photos and videos.
