Inside the covers of the scout handbook that each boy should have, there are pictures of where to put each badge on the shirt.
The scout store has packages of sticky stuff that are the right shape to stick these badges to the shirt. No sewing. I don't know how good this stuff is. It used to be that it wasn't strong enough and the merit badges would fall off and get lost. It used to leave a gunky residue on the shirt, so it made it hard to pass the shirt on or sell it later. I don't know if the new stuff does these things.
A stapler works great in a pinch.
I sometimes just baste straight across the three merit badges in a row if I'm in a hurry, then sew it on later when I have more time.
