This is my first aid buddy. Yes, I made him just for Cub Scouts.

He was in fine form to start with.

Then the Cub Scouts got hold of him.

Along with triangle bandages, they gave him a crash course in extreme yoga.

The Cubs practiced a chair carry, and pole and blanket stretcher carrying. I helped him run around the room pretending his clothes were on fire and they tackled him to the ground and smothered the "fire" with blankets. They practiced throwing a rescue line to him as he pretended to be drowning. "Buddy" took it in stride, and he never complained, but at the end of the den meeting he looked very run down.

Still, he turned an otherwise boring first aid lesson into something fun.

What a fabulous cub leader you are! It always seems like you're having so much fun with them! I bet they are learning lots too!
Oh to be flies on those boys walls. hahahaha. I would love to hear them talk about their cub scout meetings. You make the best meetings.
Couldn't have said it better than they did! DITO
I have got to show this to my husband. We might be making our own for the cubs down here.
That is awesome! That really would make first aid more fun
