REVIEW
Children will enjoy learning about U.S. National Parks with these engaging games and activities. Games are marked with the level of difficulty and are organized into seven categories: history, nature, puzzles, science, parks, animals, and people. The games can be searched by keyword, sorted by difficulty, or browsed in an alphabetical list. If users choose to sign up for the program, they can create their own ranger station, view Webcams, share pictures and stories, and track their progress, as well as earn a WebRangers patch by completing all the activities.
