Tips for Las Vegas for family

Hi, we will be staying in Las Vegas for 3 nights during a west coast trip next year, our kids will be 21, 15 and 11, I’m sure they will want some pool time while we are there but what other tips can anyone give me to do while we are there, hotels to see, restaurants, shops, anything really?😀

Not an expert as only going for first time this August (hopefully)
However other than checking out hotels on the strip, shopping and the sign. We plan on visiting Hoover dam, a couple of old ghost towns, taking pics of the Star Wars street signs.
Valley of fire, red rock canyon. Though we do have more time in LV than you.

Thanks for reply, we do plan on doing a raft ride from the Hoover dam as we did it years ago on a trip when it was just the two of us, it was a lovely day so I thoroughly recommend that😀

Red Rock and Valley of Fire are beautiful and interesting places for the kids to see! Also, the Fremont Street experience is cool (you can buy them a fried Twinkie there, lol). The Neon Sign Graveyard is fun. Of course, the fountains at the Bellagio is a good show. Hoover Dam is very interesting but it's hot as blazes out there, so double up on the sunscreen.

Our boys were 12 and 8 when we spent almost aweek in Vegas.
They loved walking through the casinos and down the strip. We spent a couple of afternoons at Wet n Wild.

We stayed in the signature suits at the MGM which we booked through Airbnb . All the hotel facilities and massive suit full kitchen etc.
