What do you think of kids in Vegas ? 

You know what I'm talking about.  Young parents or parents in their 30's need some quality time with their kids, BUT, they also want to enjoy the Vegas Lifestyle too. 

In recent years, Vegas has accommodated kids between the ages of 5 to 16 years old, taking on the Big Apple Coaster and Arcades at New York New York, Las Vegas or at the Adventure Dome at Circus Circus.  Excalibur and Mandalay Bay also entertains the younger crowd, from the exciting Tournament of Kings to the Shark Reef and how about a view of Vegas with the Highroller.

Stratosphere, Las Vegas offers thrill seekers the choice rides, such as the  Insanity, X-Scream, Big Shot and the exhilarating Sky Jump.  The only thing here, there's a limit to age groups height and weight. Accordingly, you must be 48 inches tall to ride. 

Same with Circus, Circus, Las Vegas:


*AdventureDome Cost:
$6 - $12 per ride or roller coaster. All-day passes to the Adventuredome are $31.95 for adults and $17.95 for children 33-47 inches tall (free for toddlers under 33 inches with a paying adult). Locals receive a $2 discount with proof of a valid Nevada ID (Monday - Friday).

Overall though, there's plenty for kids to do in Vegas. 





Myself, I have never taken my kids to Vegas, just because in our younger days, Vegas was strictly a play land  for adults.  

Be things have changed.


Some say Vegas isn't a place for kids, while others will argue differently.  Each have their own opinions, while Vegas seems to accommodate both. 

The only thing I find distasteful is when you see someone pushing a stroller of babies at 1:00 am, still enjoying the nightlife.  My question is, " Shouldn't  those babies be snuggled in bed by 8:00 pm?" 

As a whole, Vegas offers the whole family an opportunity to enjoy their next vacation in Sin City.  After all, Vegas is about having FUN, no matter what age you are. 

So kids, get some quality time with Mom and Dad, while in Vegas!
