I usually go with friends, but decided to take my mom & my seven year old daughter on a weekend trip. I have no idea what to do, besides sight seeing.... Anybody have any ideas on cool shows to take them to or fun places to visit?? Thanks!

Great family attractions - that are free
Fountains of Bellagio
Masquerade Show in the Sky - Rio
Fremont Street Experience - If you enjoy Artwork, Antiques & Artifacts check out Main Street Station, while you are downtown, they have a brochure to help you locate and identify everything. IMO MSS also has the best buffet in LV for the $$ - Fri/Sat night are seafood night and it's higher($$), lunch is always a bargain. If a seafood buffet sounds good, go to the one at the Fremont(Sun/Tue/Fri $15.99)
Aquarium - Silverton >Mermaids from 2p-7p Thursday through Sunday - Divers feed the Manta Rays 3 times during the afternoon as well.
Lion Habitat - MGM - have photo taken with lion cub($)
Volcano - Mirage >the Royal White Tigers are no longer free.
For a few $$
Top of the Stratosphere - Just before sunset is best.
The Fantasy Faire Midway - Excalibur - A lot of fun for your daughter.
The "Lied Childrens Discovery Museum" - A hundred or so hands on exhibits. $6
1-702-382-3445
Madame Tussauds - Venetian
Shows

My favorites >family shows
The Tournament of Kings - Excalibur
Mystere - Treasure Island
"O" - Bellagio
Blue Man Group - Venetian
Mac King - Harrah's
Dirk Arthur - Tropicana
If you want to see "Elvis" see the best - Trent Carlini is at the Sahara and you would think you were seeing a young Elvis in concert, he is that good.
Shopping
The Forum Shops at Caesars Palace - are far and away the best - The 2 fountain shows are an added bonus - FAO Schwarz alone makes this one great for the kids, but they have the Disney Store and Warner Bros as well, along with a couple of hundred awesome shops and restaurants.
Miracle Mile - Planet Hollywood
Grand Canal Shoppes - Venetian >the Venetian is a must see, it's beautiful.
Fashion Show Mall
For bargain shopping
The Premium Outlet Mall at I-15 & Charleston
The Primm Outlet Mall - There are free bus tours to this one

The Excalibur has the Tournament of Kings. This is a great dinner show for every family member. You are served a great dinner medieval style with no forks, spoons or knives .. Kids love that and the show is really fantastic. Great special effects, horses, knights, jousting matches, wizards ... and you yell and cheer your heads off. It is about $50 a person but worth every penny. Remember it includes dinner.

CircusCircus has quite a few things for kids to do.
Also, Roller Coasters...if she likes them and she's tall enough.
Stop by a Grocery Store,Gas Station or Strip Mall and pick up a free coupon booklet and Magazine that shows all the deals on various activities.
There's also really good arcades.

I'm not sure what there is to do with kids. I have only been there with adults. Search "Las Vegas Shows" and see what comes up. Have fun!

Go to Craigslist and look under babysitter in your own town. Find one, leave the kid where the kid belongs. Not in las Vegas.
