Kids to Parks Day is a national day of outdoor play celebrated annually on the third Saturday of May. The day connects kids and families with their local, state, and national parks and public lands through thousands of park events that promote discovery and exploration in the great outdoors. Join us in celebrating Kids to Parks Day by hosting an event in a local park or encouraging your town to proclaim the day!
