What is Jr. Ranger?
Learn MoreCharlie loves that nature is always changing! To him, every trip outside is a brand-new adventure because no two places are the same. He thinks nature is the best type of playground. His favorite things to do are finding big rocks to climb and searching for the perfect secret spots to build a fort. Whether he is exploring a new trail or a hidden forest, Charlie knows that nature always has a fun surprise waiting for him.
Charlie’s favorite animal is a chicken! He thinks they are the very best animal because they are super friendly, playful, and love snacking on tasty treats. Charlie even has a special pet chicken of his own named "Owl!" Even though Owl is a chicken, they make the perfect team. Whether they are playing in the yard or sharing a snack, Charlie and Owl are a true dynamic duo!
Charlie’s absolute favorite outdoor activity is playing in his mud pit! He is on a very important mission: digging all the way to the center of the earth. Even though he knows molten lava might be a bit of a problem later, he isn't stopping anytime soon. With his trusty shovel in hand, Charlie is an expert at digging through tough roots. He’s also a very kind explorer—he makes sure to carefully save every single worm he finds along the way!
