Hi Quest Scouts! For this micro quest we'll be letting the odds determine what we draw. So grab a six sided die and get ready to roll and draw!

Objective:

1) Gather your supplies. You'll need paper, drawing supplies of your choice, and a six sided die. 

2) Roll the die once for each of the three categories below. Match your die roll to the color, subject, and setting lists. (A, B and C.)

3) Draw what you rolled. For instance, if I rolled a 4 first, a 6 second and a 2 last, I would draw a green monkey in Paris, France. 

4) Share a photo of your drawing on Instagram or Twitter with the tag #QuestScouts. 

Remember, if you post to a public Instagram or Twitter account your photo will show up on our Scout Board for other Quest Scouts to view and interact with.
