re: Vegas with kids -7 and 4

Family member getting married in vegas soon. No one to leave kids with. Trying to decide if I should go with kids or just not go at all. Is there anything at all I could do with them once the 5 minute ceremony is over? Date set for November so I assume pool time is a negative.

in the 80s, they tried turning Vegas into a family destination suitable for young kids(see excalibur, etc.). They've gone away from this, and have turned it into a destination for young adults (night/day club explosion).

There will be stuff to entertain young kids, but it's either off the beaten path, or you will need to go to the lower budget hotels like excalibur or circus circus. Don't expect to find anything amusing for them at Cosmo, Wynn, Aria or any of the other 5 star places. You are correct, the pools will be closed in November.

Even just wandering the strip won't be enjoyable with your young kids. It's a complete shite show with drunk idiots.

You can bring the kids, but just plan to spend the entire time catering to them.
