For our Cubmaster

I bought this for our Cubmaster - he really appreciated it. He plans to start a tradition and it pass it along to the next who takes his place...

Wonderful Stories to Provoke Thought

I carry this book with me daily and have several that are my favorite. Many of the stories evoke thought on the part of my Scouts, who I read to. Will there be another?

Great thoughts and easy prep

In the last several months I have been asked to give many a scouter's minute. Usually that is all the warning I have too. This book is a lifesaver in those instances - great little thoughts and great for building blocks to use in a bigger thought too. Wonderful tool for any scouter/scoutmaster because it has so many great thoughts and ideas. I'd recommend it to anyone that has anything to do with scouting - it goes everywhere with me, just like my handbook.

Scout oath and laws in a story format

Scoutmaster Minutes is a great resource for scoutmasters to use teaching moments to make scouts aware the scout oath and laws.

Great mini-stories for Scouts

I was looking for good short stories to end scout meetings, and this book has great ones. The concept of the "Scoutmaster's Minute" is not new to Costa Rica, but finding stories is not an easy task. Well, the search has just become easier.
