Inventions or Genius Kits

Place 13 or 14 items such as clothespins, pipe cleaners, ribbon, a nail, cork, lids, string, paperclip,
etc. in a bag for each Cub Scout. Then they have to use those items to invent something.
You can provide glue, tape or glue gun for them to stick it all together. Have a contest to see
who did the best job. This could be done at a pack meeting or prepared before and brought with.
