"Those searching for a fun and educational dude ranch experience should look no further than the luxury all-inclusive Brush Creek Ranch located on 30,000 acres of the North Platte River Valley in south-central Wyoming. A Lil’ Buckaroos program for babies and toddlers up to age three is available for an additional fee with fishing, arts and crafts, and lessons about animals that roam the property (Brush Creek Ranch is home to horses, goats, and llamas). Included in the nightly rate is the Lil’ Wranglers program for ranchers ages four to nine that offers an introduction to horsemanship, ranch ecology, history, and culture. Mini ranch hands can explore the on-site creamery, meet the Alpine, Nubian, and Mini Nigerian goats, and learn about milking. They’ll also go hiking, pan for gold, experience horseback riding, pond fishing, and baking classes, among other outdoor adventures." - Michelle Baran
