Mission Impossible!

I am excited about this activity! I will post more as I put it together.
This is the pre-activity packet for each boy. It prepares them for the activity and gives them a skill to learn. Included: sticker mustache, ID card on lanyard, passport, mission assignment letter and skill to learn letter.
We are working on Bear and Wolf cub scout requirements and electives. The boys are each receiving a "top secret" packet a week before this activity to learn their skills before scouts. (The skills are things to learn in the scout handbook) Then the day of the activity the clues will be the same codes that the boys learn/ reviewed earlier. Man, that sounds confusing! 
 For example: The boys who must learn fingerprinting will get the ink and finger cards in their packets to practice before the activity. At the activity they will help finger print all the boys.
 Another will be a clue written in american sign language and the boy who had that assignment will help the others decipher the clue at the activity.

Their adorable ID cards.
These are some additional key codes we used that are not in the scout book.
***We did this for Family Home Evening too. I just changed the scout stuff to "the family is under attack" and we were searching for the clues to protect the family. We used "The Family: A Proclamation to the World.
