Since the publication of Scouting for Boys in 1908, all Scouts around the world have taken a promise to live up to ideals of the movement, and subscribed to a Scout Law. The Cub Scout promise is very similar to the Scout promise, however a few words have been simplified:

Typically, Cubs will make the three-fingered Scout Sign when reciting the promise.

We renew our promise every year in April.

The Cub Scout Promise

I promise that I will do my best
To do my duty to God and to the Queen
To help other people
And to keep the Cub Scout Law

The Cub Scout Law

Cub Scouts always do their best
Think of others before themselves
And do a good turn every day/em>

The Cub Scout Motto

Be Prepared
