Get ready for the presidential inauguration by brushing up on your knowledge of presidents and our system of government. With more than 400 national parks across the country of different shapes and sizes, we've got quite a few ties to U.S. presidents. There are many national parks that are dedicated in their honor, including homes, birthplaces, monuments, and memorials.

Try your hand at these games and challenges of national park trivia or quiz your family and friends. Answers are included, but no peeking until you answer. "Honest Abe" would not approve.

Kids—or the kids in all of us—can also play Junior Ranger games for more presidential fun!
