I always remember the three things that caught my interest. Making a lean to shelter. Making a bench to sit on. Throwing an axe at a dead tree (though I can't remember if we did this when no one was looking).
Other things I can think of that we did.
Making a stretcher out of two old coats and a couple of poles - then having a race carrying the 'injured'. Four boys carrying a fifth with two others running alongside to take a turn if one of the carriers got tired. there might have been a bit with a triangular bandage being applied as well.
Camouflage - shown the basics of camouflage then split into two teams one hiding along a track and other team walking down the track trying to spot the hidden ones. Then swap over. There was another game that involved stealthy movement.
Food prep, I think ours was fish, certainly don't remember seeing anything that was remotely cute or cuddly.
