About Tiger Cubs
  

Tiger Cubs, BSA, is a school year program for first-grade boys. Each boy participates with a parent (or another adult family member) in family-oriented activities. These include things from family camping to preparing for emergencies.

The time you and your son spend in Tiger Cubs is meant to be fun, a chance to get to know one another better and do things with your family, as well as other members of the Tiger Cub Den, whom you see at den meetings and pack activities.

Beads
The Tiger book also has a bunch of family activities associated with them.  Tigers are encouraged to complete as many of these activities with their families as possible.  For a list of suggested Family Activities, see the Tiger Cub Book that comes in the Family Fun Pack.

For each five family activities completed, the Tiger earns a white bead.  For each den activity completed, the tiger earns an orange bead and for learning the Tiger Cub Motto and the Promise they earn a special orange bead.

Activity beads are worn on the specially designed tiger paw that is called a Tiger Totem that hangs from right pocket:
