We will surely check if a park supports the program in advance, we just thought Niagara Falls is so popular they MUST be in the scheme. Thank you for the website though 🙂

I just looked it up and it seems like Niagara does not have a Jr Ranger program! Here is a list of the parks that do: http://www.nps.gov/learn/juniorranger.cfm

Too bad- that would have been a cool badge!

I had not heard about the butterfly conservatory on-site there! We must have missed it when we were there!!!

My husband is always trying to steal Josh’s booklet so that he can get a badge as well. Last weekend we visited Niagara Falls and the beautiful butterfly conservatory. It was amazing the only fault was they doesn’t seem to support the ranger program since we couldn’t find any place to get badges…I tried checking online but I couldn’t find anything. Do you know if they support the ranger program? Thank you!
Kay

Kids have done Jr. Ranger programs before but this is our first visit to the Rockies – looking forward to some animal watching and hiking.

THat’s great Gina! After seeing all of the pictures that my friends sent in (many more than what I could include) it has completely inspired me to plan more vacations around our beautiful National Parks- truly breath-taking nature.

Thanks for all of the tips…we love heading out and exploring!
