Yosemite Kids

Yosemite kids is my focus for this page! I have been coming to Yosemite since I was a kid and I now bring my own kids here regularly. So, I have a pretty good idea of things that interest kids in Yosemite NP.

There is so much for kids to do here in Yosemite National Park. And this is just the page to help kids look forward to a great vacation to this national park. It's easy to get a child excited about coming to Yosemite. All you have to do is educate them about what they will see when they come. Kids love to hike. Their great at spotting Yosemite wildlife.

They are fascinated with the night sky filled with stars. Most kiddos enjoy playing in the water, riding the horses, the stage coach, riding the train and riding the bikes. Let's not forget about climbing on rocks and fallen trees. OK all you Yosemite kids...let's begin!

Hey kids, Yosemite has bears! Big bears. Lots of bears. But you can observe them from afar and be completely safe. Watching bears in their natural habit can be a lot of fun and provide lasting memories.

When your hiking, you have very good chances of seeing animal tracks. Animal tracks are easy to spot in the dirt, the mud and the snow. And if the tracks are fresh, there is a good chance that the animal is still nearby.

Deer grow new antlers every year. Antlers grow, get fuzzy and then they fall off of the deers head. Only the male deer, called a buck, grows antlers.
