One of the most fun Cub Scout activities that our pack has done is the Tape Ball game that I told you about in this post.

Watch the video to learn how easy it is to make your tape ball!

I used packing tape for this, but many people use Saran Wrap instead. In hindsight, I wish I had used cling wrap. It would be easier for the Scouts to unwrap it.

The Saran Wrap ball game is a perfect game to play for your Christmas den or pack meeting.

Yours in Scouting,
Sherry

    I love the tape ball activity. We have done this in Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts and my own family’s Christmas get together. We always have fun!

  2. […] Has your pack ever played the Tape Ball game?  If not, you’re missing out because the boys love it!  You can watch a video of me making a tape ball. […]

  3. Love this idea, just wondering what Sherry means when she tells us, “you need the scissors to cut this when the boys turn it over.

    1. Hi, Vicki! At the end of his turn, a boy will have a long strip of tape with treats on it that’s still connected to the ball. I bring the scissors so that we can cut that boy’s tape strip off before we hand the ball to the next person. Does that make sense?
