Springs Preserve

After our Easter weekend Weston was tied up with KFC meetings for the remainder of our stay in Vegas. The boys’ and I found plenty to do and even discovered a new favorite destination. Las Vegas Springs Preserve was a hit! It was a Science/Desert museum all rolled into one. Perfect for my little “brainy” boys! Weston’s Aunt Lorna was nice enough to join us and we had a very fun afternoon!

The Flash Flood exhibit was their favorite! Even though it did scare London a little. I think he really thought he would be swept away.

One section of the museum had an amazing Space Exhibit. Lots of really cool interactive games and displays. Carson now wants to be an astronaut. Winking smile

Pretty tight quarters on the space shuttle. The food didn’t look so great either. Winking smile

We really enjoyed walking through the gardens and spotting all the “Trash to Treasure” sculptures.

And to cap off our day the coolest playground ever! They could have spent hours climbing and playing hide and seek in here!
