Free Charity Event @ Child's Play
Please join us for a fun-filled day at Childs’ Play. Along with Celebrate Kids, Roos n More and Marcos Pizza, we will be hosting a charity event for Child Haven on Monday, December 20th from 11 am to 3 pm.
Everyone is invited. The admission is FREE! We are hoping for donations to help the children of Child Haven. If you would like to bring in an unused toy for one of these children in need, it would be much appreciated. Items such as cars and trucks, action figures, board games, Barbie dolls, baby dolls, puzzles and arts and craft items are all great ideas for these children at the holidays.
You may drop off a gift or you may stay and play for the day. In addition to the “open play”, we will have an entertainer from Celebrate Kids, pizza from Marco’s Pizza, and fun guests from Roos N More.
Not familiar with Roos N More? They are located in Moapa, NV and open to the public a few times each month. If you haven’t had a chance to go visit them, this is a “must” event here at Childs’ Play. Valerie Holt, the owner and veterinarian of Roos N More, has generously offered to bring a few of her furry friends to our facility for you to meet. You will learn about the animals in a hands-on environment. (They are a non-profit organization, as well. A cash donation of $3-5 per family towards their zoo would be greatly appreciated by them.)
There is no need to RSVP. Please just come and join the fun for a couple of great causes! Thank you and hope to see you at Childs’ Play at 7260 S. Cimarron Rd. Suite 100, Las Vegas NV 89113. Call us at 702-722-6041 with any questions. Thanks again...

New Zoo in Las Vegas
Entertainment options in Downtown Las Vegas could be expanding, in the form of a new zoo and some crocodile wrestling. That's according to Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman.
The project would be run by the family of the late Steve Irwin. Irwin is the famed crocodile hunter who tragically died three years ago after being hit in the chest by a stingray's barb while he was snorkeling on the Great Barrier Reef.
The Irwin family runs the Australia Zoo in Queensland and met this week with Mayor Goodman about opening a similar operation in Downtown Las Vegas.
"It looks like a great project with a crocodile-type enclosure where they would wrestle with the crocodiles and feed the crocodiles and have a real educational component to it and we're going to continue those discussions," said Mayor Goodman
The zoo would be a limited zoo. It's an Australian zoo. We're not gonna have lions and tigers and giraffes and all the things that Darcy Spears would want to have an investigative report about. We're just going to have wombats and platypuses and koalas and crocodiles. I'm a big crocodile fan. I love crocodiles. So it's my kind of zoo," said Mayor Goodman

Child's Play
Child's Play has it all..a great indoor play area, parent lounge, kids hair salon, photo studio and classes galore. It's an excellent party space. The prices are very reasonable and if you just check it out you will become a member too.
I will say the management is rather rigid and not very friendly at all. If you don't buy a membership or pass you are chopped liver.

Music Bug opens studio in Summerlin!
I'm excited to share that the Music Bug Creative Arts Center will be opening their 2nd location in the beginning of May at Sahara & Fort Apache (next to the Little Pastry Chefs, Jollibee, and Candy Elephant). I love that they have almost every class you could want for babies, toddler and kids: dance, spanish, art, music, performing arts, tumbling and yoga.
I personally can't wait.

What's new
The newest library is open in the Northwest, The Centennial Hills Library. It has the largest childrens collection in the city and features modern design. It is also next to the Centennial Hills Park, which won many design awards. Sounds like a fun filled day to me! The library website is showing incorrect storytime schedules so call for storytimes.

The Las Vegas Art Museum closed this year, it was located inside the Sahara West Library. With the closing of our only art museum I refuse to hear people complain about this city not having culture and arts. It takes people, visitors, true art lovers to make an art museum thrive, and the people have clearly spoken! Your'e not really that into art enough to actually go and see it! I think most people just need it to exsist to feel complete, so stop fooling yourselves that it's that important to you, and except this city for all the things that no other city has!

With the closing of our only art museum I refuse to hear people complain about this city not having culture and arts. It takes people, visitors, true art lovers to make an art museum thrive, and the people have clearly spoken! Your'e not really that into art enough to actually go and see it! I think most people just need it to exsist to feel complete, so stop fooling yourselves that it's that important to you, and except this city for all the things that no other city has!

Town Square
Finally the ultimate dining, shopping and play destination in this valley that belongs to all of us. Centrally located it's like our very own gaslamp district. The playground is the best in the city with it's tree house, maze and water feature. The older kids always take over the merry go round though. During Christmas they had a great parade and Easter brought on an egg hunt. Easter was a disaster, hopefully they'll figure it out better for next year. Did I mention the movie theatre and nightclub? There is too much to list, so just go already!
