Stay at Red Rocks or station casinos with a Kids Quest club. We did this with our 4/2 year old boys....they had a blast! They can stay there up to 5 hours a day and it is a little kids "vegas". I didn't believe it either but they kept calling me and convinced me and my wife. I had taken them for 56k on a trip that is why they kept wanting me to come "on them". Nice try... It was AWESOME and the Red Rocks park is right there...one of the best trips seriously...and the boys constantly ask when we are going -- actually they sound like my Red Rocks Casino Host.

But make no mistake, the tourist areas of Vegas are absolutely NOT a place for kids. Disneyland is a family-friendly vacation spot; the Vegas Strip is a place where sidewalks are lined by gamuts of people trying to hand out cards and flyers for escort services. The FirstTimeLasVegas.com position remains this: It's best to leave the children at home. Vegas is an adult playground.
