kids & teens programs
When your kids are here, you'll never hear "I'm booooored.” You will hear how much fun everything is, how they’ve met so many new friends, and how excited they are about getting up tomorrow to do more cool things.
You won’t find a more comprehensive kid's program anywhere. At Colorado Trails Ranch, your children can ride, swim, and fish. They can also go rafting or to the petting zoo, learn archery or arts and crafts, and much more. (See list below.)
Our children’s and teen’s program is divided into three groups, each with their own counselor:
This allows them to participate in activities with their peers at their own level of energy. They’ll form friendships and feel comfortable surrounded by kids their own age. At the same time, the groups come together during the day, so brothers and sisters have plenty of time to hang out together, no matter their age.
Here are some of the activities included in the children’s program; they all incorporate instruction, to whatever degree your child needs or wants:
