Nevada

Let’s take our kids to Vegas! 😀

We got this question a lot…. ‘you’re taking your kids to Vegas?!’

The answer was ‘kind of’. We had about 7 total hours outside of sleeping to spend in Vegas. Did our kids learn a few new things… yes. Would we do it again, sure! They had a good time and it was certainly an experience.

We definitely did not explore Vegas to it’s fullest, and there would be different things on my list if I were to go with just adults. However, the things we did, they enjoyed!

This trip was taken March 2021.

What To Do With 1 Afternoon in Vegas (with kids!)

Check out the flamingo exhibit at the Flamingo Hotel
Walk through the shops at The Forum
See the Trevi Fountain
Stay in the Paris Hotel (gorgeous!)
Go to Rainforest Cafe … not really Vegas specific, but kids thought it was a vibe
Watch the Fountains at Bellagio Hotel
See the Vegas Sign (at 5:30am!)

Hoover Dam

The Hoover Dam was a highlight of our trip around Arizona!

It was a pretty quick trip from Vegas, with easy parking and then you can immediately walk up and you’re right there! It’s kind of amazing to see the massive scale of this dam. The kids enjoyed how close you could get, and how you could stand in between two states. We would have loved to take a tour or something, but viewing from above was worth it. What an interesting stop to add to your Vegas trip!
