Pretty much the same as scouts anywhere else.
Beaver Scouts are a division of scouting for boys too young for Cub Scouts, often down to the age of 5. They are mostly active by that name in the UK and Canada and are called Castors (French for beaver) in French speaking provinces of Canada.Scouting in France is governed by several different organizations so this is a more difficult matter to discuss in that country. At least one of the French organizations, Scouts de France, does offer what they consider to be the equivalent of Beaver Scouts called Sarabandes.Similar sections are in other countries under other names:Australia has Joeys.New Zealand has Keas.Switzerland has unofficial groups called Beaver Scouts, Fünkli, Füchse or Murmeli.The U.S. has a Tiger Cub program for 1st grade/ 6 year old Scouts. They are testing the idea of Lion Scouts for Kindergarteners (5 years old).

There are five main scouting organizations in France which are members of the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS), all of which have either Girl Guides or Girl Scouts as members.

It depends on the organization. There are five World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS) member organizations in France. Four use the term "Girl Scout" and one uses "Girl Guide".
As in Boy Scouts or Girl scouts? Yes but their activities differ from scouts in the US.
Beaver Scouts is youngest age section for some Scouting organizations such as the Scout Association in the UK. Common ages are 6 to 8. Scouts Canada also has Beaver Scouts, called Castors for the French speaking groups. Scout Australia calls this age group Joey Scouts after the kangaroo young. Scouts New Zealand has Keas, named after a parrot. The Boy Scouts of America has Tiger Cubs but they are part of the Cub Scouting division. In the Scout Association, the leader of a Beaver Scout colony is called the Beaver Scout Leader.
They are called Boy Scouts. Scouts ages 5-10 are called Cub Scouts. Scouts ages 14-21 can become Venture Scouts.
