Junior Craft and Tinker

Ready, set, CRAFT! When you craft, you make something with care, skill, and imagination. You can craft with a computer and a 3-D printer. You can craft with recycled materials to help the planet. Makers turn ideas into objects. They also tinker or make changes to improve them. They might fix a broken clock. They might test what they make multiple times.

Junior Create and Innovate

Somebody invented the seat belt. Another person figured out how to make water safe to drink. Other people thought up the telephone, the hammer, the sandwich, and the bicycle. Makers use their imaginations to solve problems and build new things. They innovate or find new ways to solve problems. They can change the world, and you can, too!

Cadette Animal Helpers – Updated Badge Content and Design

Our planet’s ecosystems are made up of people, plants, and animals supporting one another to survive. Humans benefit by using animals for food, clothing, and other resources. Animals also provide us with companionship, love, and security. Service pets assist people with disabilities: guide dogs help people who are blind navigate their environment and hearing dogs can alert people who are deaf to specific sounds. Therapy animals provide comfort to people experiencing challenges, such as hospital stays or other stressful situations. Animals even help rescue lost people and discover tumors. Discover all the amazing ways animals help humans and how you can help animals, too.
