Description:

One of the first things a Scout learns to make is a SWAP. If you don't know what that is, to me it is, Something With A Pin. All that means is something small that you have made that has a pin of some sort attached to it for you to attach it to something else (hat, vest, shirt, SWAP board, etc.) I remember making all kinds of SWAPs when I was in Scouts.

So, here is the deal. We will swap one SWAP with instructions with 2 partners. They can be the same SWAP or two different SWAPs. Please send each partner the SWAP itself and the instructions on how to make it. Please keep them fairly easy as we have a wide range of kids that we are involved with.

The SWAP can be something that you have already made with your scouts or something new that you would like to try out that you found in a magazine, on the Internet, etc. Please send clear instructions and any tips on how you made it easier for your scouts to make if you modified it in anyway.

Since this is a group swap and everyone has good ratings, I will not be putting a rating limit on this. Also, I will angel if need be, but please remember, A Scout is Always Honest and as such I hope we don't end up with any flakers. I will make this an ongoing swap if this goes well.

Here is a little bit of the history of SWAPs. There are also a few ideas on the page and links to more ideas, too.

I was thinking of making this a public swap after this one is closed. What do you think? We might get more responses that way.

FYI, post office is closed Oct. 8th, so anything mailed in the USA after perhaps noon on 10/6 may get a 10/9 postmark.
