{Tuesday's Tip} Junior Ranger Program


At most of our national parks they have junior ranger programs.  They vary a little, but generally the kids get a packet of stuff they need to finish while in the park.  If they finish everything they get a badge.  It is very fun and great way to keep your kids learning during the summer (and while on vacation).



Another fun thing to do while you are visiting national parks is to attend ranger lead programs and hikes.  Most parks have programs on native animals, plants, stars, rock formations, etc.  They are fun and informative, and make your trip a lot more meaningful because you are able to really appreciate your beautiful surroundings.


We are getting ready for vacation to a national park next week and I'll be sure to share some pictures when we get back. 

What fun things do you have planned for this summer??
