| - This is a great little children's museum in the middle of Sin City. I have been to a number of much bigger and better museums, but living in the adult playground of Las Vegas- I will take what I can get...
I have been here 3 times now. After seeing my 3 year old daughter's excitement during the first visit, I knew we had to get a membership. And with every visit, she is just as excited. We usually stay for a couple hours, exploring the exhibit of the month, role-playing in the bank, grocery store, airport, and auto shop. (She would spend hours in the grocery store pretending to shop and ringing up the items on the cash register if I let her.) She also enjoys playing with the bubbles, and exploring the different musical sounds on the 2nd floor. She also loves to sing and the "recording studio" is one of her favorites. There are also arts and crafts appropriate for different age levels.
It is a great way to escape the heat in the summer -and let the little ones learn and explore year round.
Quick Tips:
* Food and drinks aren't allowed in the actual museum, but there is an area of tables, chairs, and a vending machine by the entrance where you can take a snack break if needed. (I never leave the house without snacks!)
* It gets crowded on weekends and it can get a bit stressful with all of the older rowdy kids running around, but if you go on a weekday- it is a much calmer experience.
* Note that there are a number of homeless people hanging around the parking lot by the library next door.
