  2. Purposes of skits • THE MAIN PURPOSE FOR THE BOYS AND THE AUDIENCE IS TO HAVE FUN!!! • It’s always fun to ask each den to perform a skit or do a demonstration. It allows Scouts to showcase creativity while entertaining. • These performances can include: pantomimes, sketches, short plays, jokes, cheers and run-ons. • By practicing and performing in these informal skits, confidence and leadership skills begin to develop. • Working together as a den or pack to perform a skit encourages team work and incorporates many skills. • *Some Cub Scouts may want to just watch rather than take part in the skit. Ask them to handle the lights or offstage sound effects, or watch the time. Sometimes, playing a character who wears a mask or uses puppets helps lessen a boy's self-consciousness.
