Cargo Operations

Planning skills

How to Run

Explain to your section that the everyday products they use come from all over the world! The food they eat, the clothes they wear and even the beds they sleep on! Ask the section to shout out if they know any countries where products come from!

Explain to the section that the Cargo Operations need help to make sure the products are picked up from the right places. Split the section into groups of 4-6 and hand them out their worksheets each Beaver should get a different worksheet or for larger groups some can be repeated. Using the print out worksheet have the young people complete the different mazes to match up the products to the countries they come from! After they’ve completed the worksheets ask them to take a moment to talk about where all the products have come from in their group. Then take the worksheets from them and explain they’ll be doing a quiz! Run this like a pub quiz where they can share answers as a team and guess where the products come from as you list them out. The winning team could get a small prize!!
