About this program

Get ready for wild discoveries at Reading with a Ranger! Join a real National Park Service ranger for a storytime where animals, rivers, and big park adventures leap off the page. Kids can dive into our Discovery Table—a hands‑on activity station packed with fun props and curious objects that invite young explorers to touch, wonder, and learn.

Do you have a 4th grader in your crew? They can earn their Every Kid Outdoors pass—totally free! Just complete the quick online questionnaire and bring the printed voucher, and a ranger will help them redeem their pass so your family can start adventuring across America’s parks together: visit everykidoutdoors.gov to learn more!

What the EKO pass gets you:

• At places that charge per‑vehicle entrance fees, the pass covers the 4th grader and everyone riding in the same private, non‑commercial car (or up to two motorcycles)—perfect for a car full of explorers.

• At places that charge per‑person fees, the pass covers the 4th grader plus up to three adults; children 15 and under already get in free. Translation: bring the whole crew!

• The pass is good at many national parks and other federal public lands and historic sites—your ticket to big views, wildlife moments, and “we‑were‑there!” memories all year long.
