Summer Junior Ranger Day at the Ulysses S. Grant National Historic Site offers a unique, educational outing for families in St. Louis. Located in the lovingly preserved home of President Ulysses S. Grant, this event invites children ages 5-12 to participate in hands-on activities designed to teach them about nature, history, and stewardship. Kids will complete activity stations, exploring the beautiful grounds and exhibits, and learning about Grant’s military legacy and the Civil War era. Once tasks are completed, each child earns their official Junior Ranger badge—a memorable keepsake and achievement. Parents can enjoy the tranquil trails and guided tours of historic buildings, making for a fun and meaningful day out. The spacious, friendly atmosphere of the site creates a relaxed environment where both children and adults can immerse themselves in history and the outdoors.
