My son has transitioned from Joeys to Cubs and has a shirt full of badges to be sewn onto the new Cubs shirt. Badges are mostly small (postage stamp sized), a few slightly larger. There is a specific layout to follow (to be provided). Badges need to be sewn on straight and firmly so they won’t come off in the washing machine. Roughly 12-13 badges to be done. Possibility for repeat tasks as badges accumulate and other kids progress through Scouts.
