I will be going to Las Vegas, NV in a few weeks and was wondering where you can go with a family. Obviously, casinos and bars don't exactly work well with kids.

They have hundreds of things to do, many of them free.
If I knew the ages of your kids, I could give you a more age appropriate list of things to do. Without the ages I would just be guessing.
These are great for kids of all ages though
Fountains of Bellagio
Fremont Street Experience
Masquerade Show in the Sky - Rio
The kids are going to want to spend half the day in the pool anyway.
Caesars Palace & the Forum Shops>FAO Schwarz, Disney, Warner Bros etc
Gameworks by Steven Spielberg in the Showcase Mall next to MGM
The Lied Childrens Discovery Museum - 4th largest childrens museum in the world - 100 or so hands on exhibits - $6 for kids under 17
Siegfried & Roy's Secret Garden & Dolphin Habitat
great shows for kids
The Tournament of Kings - Excalibur
Dirk Arthur - Tropicana - "Extreme Magic" $30-$35 but 2-4-1 coupons are available in the LV magazines in your room or in the hotel gift shop.
Mac King - Harrah's $7.95 with coupon, available from the booth in the carnival court next to Harrah's
Rick Thomas - Magic - Orleans
We like the buffets for the variety, my favorites for great food at good prices
Main Street Station
Boulder Station
Orleans
Palace Station
My favorite burgers
Terrible Mike's - Orleans
for a dog
Slots-A-Fun $1.25 footlong 1/2lb with all the fixins
Hound Doggies
Orleans - Gold Coast - $1

You've already gotten a lot of good answers. Of course Circus, Circus is a must. One place kids love to go is the Sharks Reef at Mandalay Bay. I don't know how long you are staying but Zion's Canyon is about a 2 1/2 -3 hour drive.
Also, if you rent a car, don't rent from the airport, they have some pretty high fees attached to their rentals
Vegas.com should have some good ideas as well.

-Excalibur has some things going on (show for kids)in the different floor than casino ( I cant remember what floor, but once you are there its easy to find)
-Out door (pirate?) show in Treasure Island hotel

-Venetian has a nice atmosphere inside, just walk around with the kids or probably riding gondola
etc etc...the page will be full if I keep writting :)

Circus Circus has the worlds largest Indoor amusement park in the back and Circus Acts and Arcade in the front. My kids use to like it better than Disneyland.

The airport is a great place. You can get to Disney Land from there.
