Springs Preserve

This last weekend we drove to Las Vegas to see my parents, and they took us to the Las Vegas Springs Preserve on Saturday morning. It was really neat - right in the middle of town, but beautiful like you were in the middle of nowhere! There are two museums, which we didn't go to - we just walked along the trail and took Lauren to their really neat kids play area! They also had a big grassy pavilion where a kids bluegrass band was setting up for a concert. Unfortunately, we didn't stay for that - it was just TOO hot at 11AM! But, what a fun place for people to take their kids for the day!

This neat train made life-like sounds and had lots of neat gadgets to play with!


"Sand!" They had several sandbox play areas, and Lauren LOVES sand - we should have brought some toys because she could do this ALL day!




Once she found this sand and water table, she was hooked! We had to pry her away with promises of juice and a snack! :o)

This place was pretty amazing! Next time, we have GOT to see what they have that they actually charge you for!
