Heading to Las Vegas with the family this summer? Not to worry, here's a quick list of my Top 5 picks to keep all ages satisfied:
Wet-N-Wild Las Vegas is the place to be this summer. Nevada's premier water park will offer over 25 slides and attractions. Several of the attractions are named after famous landmarks in the Southern Nevada region. Stay up to date on latest developments at www.WetNWildLasVegas.com.
It's always refreshing to see a new choice of hotel property near the San Francisco Airport -- and the options have gotten even better recently. Just a half mile from the airport, the hip and ultra modern new Aloft hotel is a great choice for a comfortable stay before or after flying or when visiting the Bay Area.
Great amenities like free Wi-fi, bottled water, and quality coffee make this a comfy choice in a loft-inspired lodging option.
The History Colorado Center is one of the newest museums in Downtown Denver. Since its opening last year, the History Colorado Center has been teaching visitors about Colorado in a fun and interactive way. The brightly colored displays draw visitors in and the hands-on activities will keep your children occupied for quite some time.
If you have children who are still in the single digits, you know that it’s hard to take them on a hike or nature walk. It’s like they have an auto-complain chip in their heads: “I can’t go any farther! My legs are tired! I have a pain in my side.”
We meet up in the spa, four women ready to tackle the mountain. We introduce ourselves to each other other and to Marla, the spunky petite blonde who’s our guide on this fitness excursion into the great outdoors.
Put it on your list right now of places to see when visiting Las Vegas because this children's museum is phenomenal! The brand new Discovery Children's Museum is a must-see on your next trip to Las Vegas.
