Hello Kids…
Here I am again with more fun insights for you about Vegas and the awesome wedding options there. Today I’d like to share with you a glimpse of the family friendly side of Las Vegas. One issue that seems to be inescapable is the idea that Vegas is only for adults. I have encouraged my friends and family to bring their children out for our wedding because the truth is Vegas is a family friendly destination. On my last trip I took the time to visit both the Natural History Museum and the Lied Discovery Children’s Museum which both promote friendly and educational experiences for children and families. Not only are there local museums to share with your children but there are also family friendly wedding venues as well as restaurants and hotels. Check out our favorite family friendly spots in Vegas…
The Place to Marry:
If your dream wedding includes a few kids we highly suggest Vegas Weddings. Not only do they have tons of options for wedding locations but the staff is super friendly. Any chapel can help you to include children but Vegas Weddings really offers the best customer service in town which makes it much easier to bring the little ones along. From easy access to restrooms and comfortable chapel seating I highly suggest using Vegas Wedding for ceremonies with children involved or attending. To be honest I recommend Vegas Weddings to anyone, for any type of ceremony they are the best in town!!!
The Place to Eat:
The Las Vegas Strip offers some of the best food in the world but not all of those amazing eateries are child friendly. If you’re looking for a good meal where you children will be welcomed I highly suggest Holsteins inside the Cosmopolitan Hotel and Casino. The menu is fresh and new but has something to offer everyone and if your kids finish all their food they might be treated for a tiny cowbell by the staff. Everyone at Holsteins is amazing they are always polite and happy to help. The big plus is you cannot go wrong with burgers and shakes; the food is top notch but not anything that your kids will be afraid to eat.
The Place to Sleep:
Hands down I highly suggest Excalibur Hotel and Casino for families. Who doesn’t want to stay the night in a castle? Excalibur offers a rare bit of the Vegas I knew as a kid…the carnival midway. The basement of Excalibur still houses a midway for kids complete with motion simulated movie rides and carnival games. It’s the perfect place to have an evening of family fun. The games are all pretty easy and offer prizes for the kids to take home…be warned you may need an extra suitcase for all the goodies your kids will get!!!
The Places for Educational Fun:
I simply could not decide between these two both offer great family experiences and are just a short drive past the Vegas Strip. The Las Vegas Natural History Museum is a hidden gem. They have a huge collection of exotic taxidermy animals. Your kids can get closer than ever to lions, hippos and birds of prey to name a few. To top it all off there is a GREAT section all about dinosaurs and a replica of ancient Egypt to finish off the tour. Once you’ve finished for history lesson you can check out the Lied Discovery Children’s Museum. The Lied Museum offers a wonderful hands-on experience for children. They can learn about everything from banking to nutrition by engaging with the exhibits there. Another unique attribute of this museum is the policy that adults may not enter unless accompanied by a child, the museum is for children and you must have a child with you to enter. Both museums are great places to visit with so much to offer both local and traveling families.
Overall these are just a handful of family friendly Vegas options. Whether you’ll be in Vegas for a wedding or just for fun feel free to ask us any questions about family friendly places to visit. Las Vegas has much more to offer than meets the eye so please don’t be afraid to share some neon with your kids!!!
