Mesa Verde National Park
For Kids
 

Becoming a Junior Ranger

Junior Ranger Program

Children from age 4 to 12 can become a Junior Ranger at Mesa Verde. Just pick up an Activity Sheet at the Far View Visitor Center or Chapin Mesa Museum, complete the activities, and take it to a ranger at either location for review. A special Mesa Verde Junior Ranger badge is awarded for a job well done.

 


Kids of all ages
can learn about Mesa Verde National Park right at home.  Do you want to know more about Mesa Verde's cliff dwellings, see artifacts left by the Ancestral Puebloans, or learn about the history of Mesa Verde? Then click on the links below.

(*Note:  The last three links will take you to the previous InDepth pages of Mesa Verde National Park.  They will open in a new window.  When you are ready to return to this page, just close that window.)
