Kids to Parks Day is a nationwide celebration of the great outdoors organized by the National Parks Trust and is designed to connect kids and families with their local, state, and national parks and public lands. By discovering and exploring our public lands, kids across the country can learn about park stewardship, outdoor recreation, STEM (science, technology, engineering and math), and the history of our country. In addition, by teaching our kids to appreciate and enjoy our public lands, we can foster future outdoor enthusiasts and create the next generation of park stewards and caretakers of these important places. Because kids need parks – and parks need kids! At Garret Mountain Reservation we’re going to have fishing lessons, guided nature hikes, archery lessons, inflatable rides for kids, pony rides, a petting zoo, the Montclair Art Museum’s Art Truck and plenty more for the kids to enjoy!
