Junior Ranger

Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument does not have a site specific Jr. Ranger booklet, or site specific Jr. Ranger badge yet. We are working on it and appreciate your patience! While we work on developing our Jr.Ranger program, we are offering the Junior Ranger Night Explorer booklet and the Junior Ranger Let's Go Fishing! booklet.
 
The Night Explorer badge is a round graphic showing the big dipper constellation surrounded by an outline of a bear.

Jr. Ranger Night Explorer!

The National Park Service has developed a Junior Ranger Night Explorer program, encouraging young park visitors to explore the starry side of their national parks.

Children can learn how to find the North Star, write their own creative mythology about the constellations, track the phases of the moon, learn about stars and galaxies, and use all their senses to explore the night environment at a national park.
