What do Las Vegas and a couple with a young child have in common? They both never sleep! With its reputation for high-roller gambling, adult-only shows and an active nightlife, you would be forgiven for believing that Sin City has a strict "no child" policy in place. However, that couldn’t be further from the truth. Under Vegas’ avaricious exterior lies a world of action and adventure just waiting to welcome your children in with open arms.
If you plan to travel to Vegas with your children, do not panic! In order to help you make the most of your trip, we’ve put together the top 5 kid-friendly attractions:
The Adventuredome at Circus Circus
Located on the North of the strip, the Adventuredome offers a fun, exciting day out for the whole family. Revered by all who visit, the Adventuredome offers budding thrill-seekers a chance to ride some of the best rollercoasters on not only the West Coast, but in all of the USA.
Amidst a plethora of water slides and kid-friendly rides lies “Canyon Blaster” – one of the most heart-stopping rides you're likely to experience. Blistering through Circus-Circus at breakneck speed, this attraction is definitely for the young at heart! In fact, in order to keep you old timers from embarrassing yourself, this ride should be fitted with a sign reading “Not Suitable For Adults.”
M&Ms and Coca-Cola Store
Every kid loves chocolate, and every kid loves Coca-Cola, it’s a fact! If you travel to Las Vegas Boulevard, make sure to make their day by stopping by these great attractions.
The M&M’s store comes equipped with a theater showing a 3D animated M&Ms movie – sure to keep them entertained!
Blue Man Group
Don’t worry, this isn’t your typical Vegas show. Swapping knee-high stockings for neon swords, the Blue Man Group offers clean, family friendly fun for audience members of all ages.
Travel to the Monte Carlo Resort and Casino to see the Blue Man Group amaze audiences with a show that attacks all senses. Making unbelievable use of sound effects and lighting, this techno-driven show comes with electrifying music, awe-inspiring visuals and some of the best audience participation to be found in Las Vegas. With tickets starting at $85.30, this isn’t exactly budget entertainment. However, it is definitely worth every penny!
The Mac King Comedy Magic Show
Comedian and sleight-of-hand extraordinaire Mac King hosts an unmissable show at Harrah’s hotel. His truly unique act blends slapstick comedy and quirky humour with a magic show that is as mind-blowing as his decision to wear a retro plaid suit and bowl cut hairstyle.
As one of the most talented magicians in Vegas (not an easy feat!), Mac King has perfected his craft to a level that will amaze all. Additionally, he does so with a humor and affection that will leave the whole family happy!
Kids Quest
You’ve taken your children to all the best shows, had a near death experience on Canyon Rock and walked endlessly around the M & Ms store. Now, before you go home, you want your one chance at making the big time in the casino. But what to do with the young ones?
That’s where Kids Quest comes in. With a highly trained, highly qualified staff, Kids Quest offers a haven in which to leave the children for a couple of hours so you can enjoy some well-earned “me time.” Located in various hotels throughout Vegas, Kids Quest offers video game rooms, karaoke and an indoor playground. Don’t feel guilty, they’ll probably be glad to have some time away from the parents!
