Best Answer

Lord Baden-Powell did his first experiment in scouting on Brownsea Island in 1907. He founded the Boy Scouts in England in 1908 and William Boyce founded the Boy Scouts of America in 1910 after a visit to England and meetings with Baden-Powell.

There were, however, other scouting organizations dating back to the late 1800's , mostly in the US.

Baden-Powell, the founder of scouting, immediately recognized the need for an organization for younger boys and established "Cubbing" in England in 1916.

Cubbing was initially resisted by the BSA for fear of diverting adult male leadership from the older boys. In 1930 they started an experimental program where Boy Scouts served as "den chiefs, and lead the youth "dens" with the support of their parents, especially the mothers who were called the den mothers. In 1936 the BSA officially adopted the program.
