Etymology
Scoutcraft comes from scout (originally a person who watched or 'listened' for signs) and craft meaning 'skill', like in handicraft. A helpful way to remember it is to think of Scouts learning practical outdoor skills such as making shelters, reading maps, and starting fires. So scoutcraft means the skills needed for camping and outdoor life.
