The bush is calling.
Will you answer it, Ranger?
An on-demand wildlife adventure where kids join Kitimu the lion cub on real missions — tracking animals, reading the sky, and earning their stripes as a true Junior Ranger.
Led by Kitimu, the lion who teaches the bush
The On-Demand Junior Ranger Course turns curiosity about animals into a real conservation adventure. Every lesson opens with a mission from Kitimu the lion cub — a warm, wise guide who calls your child “Ranger” and leads them deeper into the wild.
Across 14 modules, young rangers explore the living planet: weather and the night sky, mammals, birds, frogs, reptiles, insects, trees, and the art of tracking. Each topic blends a short video, a hands-on game, a printable activity, and a real outdoor mission — so learning leaves the screen and heads into the garden.
As they go, kids collect Ranger Stars and unlock module badges, building toward their full Junior Ranger qualification. It’s screen time that sends them outside, looking closer at the world around them.
