We aren't parents. But we likely will be someday. So as we were traveling through all 59 national parks in 2015-2016, we often looked at parks through the lens of someday coming back and experiencing them with our own future kids. Today on the podcast, we're sharing about two parks that (we think) would be great for families of all ages. We offer insight into our own experiences there, and we also share aspects that we think would be ideal for kids. Happy listening! Listen for more, and check out today's show notes at switchbackkids.com/podcast. And check out SwitchbackKids.com for blog posts, videos and ebooks with tips, info and visuals on each National Park. Or find us on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter for much more! Adventure on! Music: bensound.com
