Las Vegas kid recs

[Shreddingbetty]

In one week we are going to Vegas and will be there 2 days. DH has a conference there so DD and I will pretty much be on our own. Any recs of things to do with kids on/near the strip (I know we are not staying on the strip but it is nearby). My friend mentioned the aquarium at the mirage and the M&M store. Any other recs? DD is 3.5.

thanks

There's an aquarium at Mandalay Bay that not free but it quite extensive, (Shark Reef Bay).

I've heard great things about their children's museum. www.discoverykidslv.org/

The children's museum in Las Vegas is really cool. I took my son when he was 3 and he really enjoyed it! We also did the natural history museum there which was just OK. We also took him to see the dolphins and the white tiger exhibit at the Mirage which we all loved!

Thanks! That should be plenty for us to do since we are only there for 2 days.

I was also going to say Shark Reef at Mandalay. And there's the lion habitat at MGM.
