12. Junior Rangers Program

If you have kids you will love the Junior Rangers program. Parents in the know claim it’s one of the best family-friendly activities offered there. It’s also a great way for children to make a real connection to the park.

Your kids can complete the activities in the car, during your lunch break and after each day of exploring comes to a close. Some parents claim you can even use this as part of the homeschooling science curriculum (although we have not confirmed that.) It certainly may help enhance your children’s literacy skills.

If you want to involve math then try comparing the height of different peaks there. The bottom line is you need to be sure to visit the Zion Canyon Visitor Center as soon as you get there so that you can pick up Junior Ranger books for your kids. Once your children have completed all the required activities be sure to see one of the rangers there so your kids can get their Junior Ranger badges. They even pledge to take care of our environment. (Who needs Greta?).
