Cubs run around with one or two "catchers" trying to tag them.  If you are touched, you are stuck in the mud until a team-mate releases you again.

Beads (at least 3 colours)

Gut/beading string

Binary code chart

Computers assign a string of 0s and 1s to different letters, symbols, and instructions, and this is called binary code. Each Cub is given a list of all the letters of the alphabet, and then pick one color of bead to represent 1 and another color to represent 0. The third colour beads are spaces (or delimiters) between the letters of their name.   Of course, you don’t actually need a delimiter to know when one character ends and another begins in ASCII (assuming you know the start of the whole message), because the size of each character doesn’t vary–we can always rely on each character using exactly 8 bits.

Using the template, Cubs need to write their names in binary code and then, using this as a guide, create their necklaces.

Have an old computer or a variety of broken electronic devices that can be taken apart to show the Cubs the various components.  See how many they can remember and  pass the items around if possible.

Create a maze using ropes or staves in the Hall or outside.  Place game counters or slices of pool noodles around the maze for Pacman to get.  There should be two exits for the maze where the pacman can deposit their counters.  One or two Cubs are the ghosts who move through the maze - they can only move forward unless they hit a dead end and then need to move at a steady pace.  Pacman (the Cub that is on), needs to go through the maze collecting the counters without being touched by the ghost.
