We spent the day up at Mt Rainier National Park the other day. As we always do when in a National Park (Or Monument) the kids did the Jr Ranger books. If your not familiar with them, next time your in a National Park, ask about it. Its an activity book that kids fill out. There are different activities for different age levels. And basically it teaches them about the history of the national park they are in. Both the heritage and science of it. This time, they also completed a Centennial Book. This one talked more about the history of the National Park system since they are celebrating the 100 year anniversary. That book got the kids a sweet Wood badge. The normal badges are plastic or iron/sew on patches. The kids have done several for many different parks. Check the program out HERE.
