The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has launched “Get Out Minnesota”—a new website for kids ages 5 through 11. The site uses games and interactive tools to educate children about Minnesota’s state parks and trails.
Kids accrue points by playing games on the site and then visiting select Minnesota state parks, state recreation areas and state trails, where they have to seek out unique “code words” printed on posters. When kids return from their outdoor adventures, they log into the “Get Out Minnesota” website and enter the code words, which are worth 50 points each. When they earn 500 points, a certificate is unlocked that they can print and bring to a state park and redeem for a prize.
