10 Things to do Good for Kids in Henderson That You Shouldn't Miss

October 30, 2021 Stefan Strunk

Ideally situated just south of Las Vegas and just west of Lake Mead and the Hoover Dam, Henderson may lack Sin City's flamboyance, but it makes up for it in activities. Golf any of eight championship courses throughout the year, sample delectable treats from Ethel M Chocolates as you explore the Botanical Cactus Garden, the world’s largest cactus collection, pay respects at the Henderson Veteran's Memorial Wall or take your binoculars to the Bird Viewing Preserve.

On a recent trip to Las Vegas we visited this museum. There is a building with LOTS of things to see. As a former Earth Science teacher, I loved the fossil area, but that is only one small part of the viewing in this building. Then on the outside you walk along a Ghost Town and Mining Trail. Here there are numerous displays and small OLD TIME buildings. Then you walk across the street and see a pretend neighborhood with several homes. The insides of the homes are set up with displays that I, as a person in my 60's, remember either in my own home or my grandparents homes. That is such a hoot!!!! Like the Bellagio Conservatory, here are NUMEROUS PHOTO OPPORTUNITIES!!!! The cost for us seniors was $1.00 for other it is $2.00. You cannot beat that for an inexpensive time. You will need some time to go through the main building, walk around the Ghost Town, walk through other buildings such as a barn and church and to go through the homes in the neighborhood. Please go onto the website for the Clark County Museum as there are lots of pictures of this place.

Henderson Bird Viewing Preserve

Reviewed By 53Coop - Provincetown, United States

This is a brilliant gem near Las Vegas. We needed some outdoor time after two days indoors and this was great. Our Lyft driver had no idea it was there and planned to bring his kids there the next day. Roadrunners, verdin, Gambel’s quail, American avocet, northern shoveler, ruddy duck, cinnamon teal, hummingbirds, and much much more! The staff was wonderful and kind to this visitor from the East Coast. Go here if you love birding!
