Post  Beaver Program Goals Reply with quote
In Beavers, "Sharing" is the major focus upon which all activities are based. Scouts Canada believes that the best way to teach young children and foster responsibility is to provide a program that demonstrates encouragement and caring in an atmosphere of cooperation and non-competitiveness.

Through the sharing theme, the Beaver program is intended to build self-confidence and feelings of self worth within the child. Through it, Beavers develop a sense of respect and caring for others as there is no pressure of the experience of competition.

For Beavers, the belief is that it's more important to:

  • It is better to try rather than to focus on the achievement
  • Better to gain experience rather than to focus on the win
  • Sharing with others is better than keeping for yourself
  • Learning to work and play together is more rewarding than pitting themselves against each other
