The main objective is to complete more than four dozen activities -- puzzles, mysteries, quizzes, etc. -- to earn your "WebRanger" status. The activities vary in difficulty level and topic (parks, animals, nature, people, history, science, and puzzles). Kids can also upload their nature-related photos (they don't publish any identifiable pictures of children's faces) and stories (no personal informational allowed). There's no advertising.
