Ranches are places where families can unplug from electronics in gorgeous surroundings. And Paradise Ranch in Buffalo, Wyoming (paradiseranch.com), is known for having great ranch programs for children. Infants to teens have their own programs, with age-appropriate activities supervised by specially trained kid wranglers. Preschoolers enjoy pony rides, while ages six and up have daily horseback-riding. Babysitters watch guests up to age three, while kids over three can participate in a full-day program (parents pick them up for lunch). The kids program includes Horse Day (roping and calf feeding), Fishing Day (making fishing poles, talent show practice and teen social of movie and ice cream), Native American Day (making dream catchers, headdresses, and totem poles), Tie-Dyeing Day, Nature Day (hikes, treasure hunt, rock painting, cookie making and a chuckwagon dinner) and Rodeo Day (chicken-chasing competition, bookmark and bird-feeder making and, of course, a rodeo).
