1 Boy Scout Nature Crafts and Outdoor Activities Plant Science Merit Badge Acorn Naturalists specializes in resources that enhance Boy Scout experiences, including nature crafts, campfire activities, outdoor skill development, nature lore knowledge, camp nature craft activity kits, and many other fun resources for scout patch and award programs. Boy Scouts, patrol leaders and outdoor education and service leaders are encouraged to visit our online or bricks and mortar store, each filled with activities that supplement Boy Scout programs and activities. Watch interest in nature and outdoor education grow while your scouts enjoy the great outdoors, all the while earning their scout patches and awards. The resources listed below can easily be found on the Acorn Naturalists website. When visiting acornnaturalists.com simply type in all or part of resource name into the search field located on every web page. You can then easily order online using our secure order form, or simply call us directly at (800) If you are in the area, visit us in person at our store (155 El Camino Real, Tustin, California 92780), or call to request our 200 page print catalog describing over 8000 hands-on education resources. We look forward to helping Boy Scouts achieve a high level of adventure, education and outdoor learning while developing valuable skills and, of course, having a lot of fun. This resource list has been developed by educators familiar with Boy Scout handbook, fieldbook, merit badge and award requirements, and is offered to enhance and enrich Boy Scout education activities described in those resources. Specific learning resources should be selected based on local environments and interests as they complement official Boy Scout programs, projects, patches, awards and activities.
