Cub Scouts Overview Quiz - Test Your Cubs Knowledge

Cub Scouts were introduced in 1916, just before Christmas, nine years after the Scouting movement began. This new section was created by the founder of Scouts, Robert Baden-Powell, to teach its members a wide range of skills. They learn about outdoor survival, teamwork, and other practical skills. Cub Scouts develop a community mindset, long-lasting friendships, and self-respect.

The name "Cub Scout" was inspired by the much-loved children's book "The Jungle Book," written by Rudyard Kipling. The name "Cubs" came from the young wolf cubs in the story. The leader of a Cub Scout group is called "Akela," named after the alpha wolf of Mowgli's wolf pack.
