Scout Quiz - Scouting Traditions Around The World

Across the globe, there is a wide variety of traditions among Scout groups. From America to India and the UK to Italy, each country's Scout groups have their own traditions that reflect their individual cultures and beliefs. For instance...

In Mexico, people celebrate the "Day of the Dead," known as "Día de los Muertos," where they honour deceased family members. Mexican Scouts take part in these celebrations by creating altars, crafting traditional decorations like papel picado (cut paper decorations), and participating in community events. This blends Scouting with cultural heritage.
