One of the official suggested Webelos activity badges for May is Artist.
Here are the requirements for the Artist Webelos activity badge:
Do these:
1. Talk to an artist in your area or to your art teacher about the different occupations in the art field. Make a list of them.
2. Create a scrapbook (portfolio) of your Artist activity badge projects and show it to your den leader.
And do five of these:
3. Draw or paint an original picture out-of-doors, using the art materials you prefer. Frame the picture for your room or home.
4. List the primary and secondary colors. Explain what happens when you combine colors.
5. Using a computer, make six original designs using straight lines, curved lines, or both.
6. Draw a profile of a member of your family.
7. Use clay to sculpt a simple object.
8. Make a mobile, using your choice of materials.
9. Make an art construction, using your choice of materials.
10. Create a collage that expresses something about you.
11. While you are a Webelos Scout, earn the Cub Scout Academics belt loop for Art.
