How were your fourth grade years? If you’re combing through the cobwebs trying to remember like us, it probably wasn’t a particularly eventful year. ⁠ ⁠ That’s all about to change for fourth graders this year. You can do something way cooler, like get your family free entry into national parks this summer. ⁠ ⁠ Why this particular grade you ask? Research shows that kids ages nine to 11 are beginning to learn about the world around them. They're open to new ideas, and they are likely to connect to nature and our history, so this is perfect timing. For any national park that charges an entrance fee per person, all children in the group under the age of 16 and up to three adults get in for free. Now that’s a deal. ⁠ ⁠ So, grab your fourth grader and start exploring!
