Junior Space Ranger booklets are 6 pages long; activities are expecially suitable for children who like to find answers on the web.

Kids who finish the Junior Space Ranger Activity booklet get an iron-on cloth "rocker." (left) The rocker is meant to be worn below the junior ranger patch, but it can be earned without becoming a junior ranger first.

1. Pick up the booklet from park headquarters or a visitor center.
2. Return the completed booklet to a visitor center to check your answers with a ranger and to get your space ranger rocker.
