Subject: [ RadSafe ] Boy Scouts nuclear science merit badge

I was asked to be a counselor for some boy scouts hoping to get merit
badges in nuclear science.  Most of the kids are ages 13-15.  Some of the
topics (basic physics, radiation safety, radiobiology etc) seem a bit
advanced for kids in their early teens.  Perhaps I'm wrong though.  Does
anyone have any experience they would like to share? Is there any advice on
teaching nuclear science to younger students or counseling this merit badge
specifically?

thanks
