The IET has produced some resources for the Scout electronics badge. These are split into an activity pack containing sheets for Scouts and a leader pack with some additional guidance for leaders. Both packs are available for free download from the Scout website. One of the projects covered in this pack and described in the June / July 2013 "Get active" magazine that accompanies the Scouting magazine is the night light in a milk container project. This is project 5, starting on page 26 of the of the Scout Leaders' pack. If you would like to find out more about these resources and activities, click here. We recommend doing this activity indoors as the paint can take far too long to dry on a cold damp campsite.
