Scouter Mom is one of my favorite places to go for scouting ideas. She has a gathering activity called a falling letter puzzle. She took the Cub Scout Promise and wrote it as a puzzle, but then all of the letters fell off and are down below the puzzle. The Cub Scouts have to write them back up in the puzzle in the correct order. The letters belong in the column directly above them. As they write a letter in the puzzle area, they need to scratch it out below so they know it has been used.
The second address is a dice game that you play to help kids learn/remember their bobcat badge requirements. These games would make good cooperation games for September. All you would have to do is allow them to work together.
I am hoping this address works because I know the address says law of the pack but it is really the cub scout promise. It looks like you will have to copy and paste the link into your browser.

Alternative Cub Scout Delivery System
There are two manuals that are great for small units that have to run more than one den together. If you have to run Tiger, Wolf, Bear, and/or Webelos together, this might be a great resourse for you. There is a manual for Year A and one for Year B. There is even a Year A for Spanish speaking units. You can download the manuals right to your computer. You may want to go to the link below and check this out. It does take a bit of time to download them. I was able to download both manuals to my iPad. At the Orem Scout Office a guy told me this new manual will be the thing he is presenting at Akala's Counsel this year. So here is a plug for Akala's Counsel--Sign Up! You will learn some cool things that you can share with the rest of us.
