Wupataki in September may be OK but it was outrageously hot when we were there in summer. If you are going to Grand Canyon I'd suggest doing Mesa Verde on the way back. The ruins are much more extensive and more accessible. If you go there make tour reservations online before you get there. Hovenweep is in the same area with different ruin types by the same group of Indians. Then you can drive back east thru the Colorado mountains to Durango and head south from there into NM. Or if you still have an extra day keep going east to Great Sand Dunes NM which is a major hit with the kids.
