Dreamcatchers

The Adventure: A dreamcatcher is a traditional charm of the Ojibwe people. It is a small decorated hoop that is said to filter out bad dreams, ensuring a peaceful night’s sleep.

Making dreamcatchers is a fun activity that you can do at a meeting or at camp. You can make your own to show off your creativity. Perhaps best of all, making dreamcatchers is a good way to practise Scoutcraft skills that you can use in all kinds of ways.
