NPF Kids

Welcome to the National Park Foundation Kids page! Just like the parks themselves, there’s a lot here to explore! See how kids around the country are connecting to the parks and helping to protect them.

Get Active In Your National Parks

The National Park Foundation and  National Park Service have collaborated with Disney in a new public service announcement to encourage kids and families to explore the outdoors – and the national parks are the PERFECT place to do just that. The PSA, featuring Disney Channel star Caroline Sunshine (“Shake It Up”), is a joint effort between Disney Friends for Change and the Disney Worldwide Conservation Fund to help connect kids and families to nature.  Check it out and be inspired to plan your next adventure to one of the country’s over 400 national parks.
