Cache Valley is Family Friendly
Cache Valley is full of family activities to fit all lifestyles and budgets. The community offers a skateboard park, indoor and outdoor swimming, ice skating, a roller rink, a soft indoor playworld, several fall corn mazes and children's interpretive nature trails in Logan Canyon. Children can pet and feed farm animals at the Jensen Living Historical Farm, a living history farm set in the early 1900s, and visit black bears, monkeys and kangaroos at Willow Park Zoo, home to more than 600 animals. The Cache Valley Alliance for the Varied Arts, a nonprofit arts organization, offers dance, drama, ceramics and art classes for children. The annual Summerfest features face painting, drumming and puppet theater.
Utah State University Extension and 4-H hosts several Discovery Summer Science Camps each year to allow kids to discover and explore everything from bugs to forces of nature. The Utah History Fair helps students learn about historical issues, ideas, people and events. USU's Junior Engineering is a hands-on, interactive program designed to help students learn about space missions and engineering principles. Children can also enjoy all four seasons in Logan Canyon and strap on snowshoes and track wildlife in the winter or identify trees in summer at the Stokes Nature Center in Logan Canyon.
