Things to Do in Las Vegas With Kids

We were pleasantly surprised at the variety of things to do in Las Vegas with kids! Our January 2018 four day trip with the kids was packed full, and we had some activities saved for next time.

Las Vegas is about a 5-hour drive from Phoenix. We stopped at the Hoover Dam for a couple of hours driving up and just drove straight home returning. Our hotel was the Bluegreen Club 36, which was comfortable and clean, and had a pool. The pool was not heated, so we also made use of the hot tub.

Here is the list of things we did in Vegas!

    • The Discovery Children’s Museum has three floors of hands on exhibits, including a huge climbing tower and more!
    • Shop, eat and let the kids play on the multi-level playground at Container Park.
    • Town Square Park is another great stop with a playground, surrounded by shopping and restaurants.
    • Watch clowns, trapeze artists, acrobats and more for free at Circus Circus!
    • Hoover Dam is a short 40 minutes drive away! It’s free to drive across; there is also a pay garage and limited free parking.
    • The colorful Seven Magic Mountains are 30 minutes south of Vegas, and on display through May 2018.
    • See the view from top of the Eiffel Tower, a half size replica of the one in Paris.
    • Stop for lunch or dinner at the Eiffel Tower Restaurant.
