Celebrate the joy of books with the Book Worm Blanket Badge. This playful design shows a cute worm in glasses, proudly wearing a Scout necker and sheltering beneath a purple book. Finished with a white border, it’s a fun addition to blankets and ponchos and a brilliant gift for Squirrels and Beavers during National Storytelling Week or World Book Day.

Why this badge matters

Books help build confidence, spark imagination, and support communication skills - especially for younger sections like Squirrels and Beavers. By earning and displaying this badge, young people are encouraged to see reading as something fun, shared, and full of adventure. It’s a simple but powerful way to promote a lifelong love of books, whether during Storytelling Week, World Book Day, or everyday Scouting activities.
