Four Best National Parks for Kids
Yellowstone National Park
Here, the bears may walk in front of your car, and the herd of deer is so close to you that you can roll down the window and touch them. The Hayden Valley, in the center of the park, and the Lamar Valley, in the northeast corner, are among the best places to spot of some of the park's more than 400 animal species. Visiting here is a great chance to see wildlife.
Glacier National Park
Even naughty kids will be attracted as you drive on the Going-to-the-Sun Road, a 52-mile highway that passes by waterfalls, and the Jackson Glacier, where they can get a good view of the seventh-largest glacier in the park. The glaciers are disappearing fast, so share with the kids while you still can.
Acadia National Park
At more than 1,500 feet, Cadillac Mountain is the highest point along the North Atlantic seaboard. However, it is easy to get to by ear. Standing on top of the mountain is always an extreme moment for the kids. On the way down, you may also keep your eyes open for the wild blueberry bush, which is really a different world, compared with the cities.
Badlands National Park
If you would prefer to take kids on a fossil hunt, this park is perfect for you, which is home to one of the world's richest savings of fossils. Starting off on the Fossil Exhibit Trail, a long boardwalk with copies of fossils found in the park and good signs, you can tell the kids what they're looking at. From there, take a scenic drive through the Badlands.
