This old fashioned gas pump serves the best hot cocoa .
Susane G.

This place is just like you would have imagined the elves break room to look lime. Lots friendly people and lots of fun things to do with the whole family. This place is only open a few day of the year so don't miss your chance to experience of a life time.

We're always looking for fun things to do with a 2 year old, and Kringle's filling station was awesome! My son loved handing balls over for ski ball, sitting at the office, and of course the gas pump hot chocolate with extra whipped cream and sprinkles. It really was fun for the whole family.

Great family fun! Kids loved getting a delicious hot chocolate from an old timer gas pump! Unlimited ski-ball, ring toss and even some Christmas karaoke! Looking forward to coding Kringle's next season!

Pretty disappointing. I initially saw an ad on Instagram for Kringles and from the photos, it looked like it would be a great experience for adults. Located in an old mechanic shop/lot with several different kitschy type things photo ops that were perfect for Christmas. The tickets you purchase are on a timed entry, which make it seem like they control the amount of people that are there. That's not the case. People can just show up whenever and stay as long as they want. Your entrance ticket gives you a free cup of hot chocolate from an old gas-pump that's been reconfigured as a hot chocolate pump. The small game-room area has skee-ball and some other things, but there's no time limit, so people can stay on them as long as they want. There is also a "Santa hoopdie" that you can look at, but you have to pay extra for photos. There are no separate times for adults and for families w/kids, which would have definitely enhanced the experience. All in all, definitely not worth the cost. Will not be returning.

The photo package gets you a few of these bad boys

No parking. Had to park on 83rd street and walk over broken glass and needles. Park elsewhere. Kids loved the skee ball.

Super cute holiday spot to bring the kiddos. Ski ball, karaoke, and hot cocoa served out of gas pumps.

This free museum is filled with old fire trucks dating back to an 1834 hand pumper. A must see for young and old, and each fire truck has a print out, which is free, for one to take home and explains all about the particular vehicle.... I was so impressed. The entire museum is indoors. For details, activities and events in which LRFD participates see: www.lastresortfd.org The museum is free but a donation is requested. Your kids will love this place and so will you. Well worth the time to see.

As a firefighter with Las Vegas Fire & Rescue I would highly recommend stopping by Last Resort Fire Department for a quick tour of SFD history

Each class is prepared with activities and experiments, supplies and crafts to enhance the learning that has taken place. Kids are eager, excited and happy, engaged and participate in their own learning. KSL has given us a whole new take on teaching science to little ones, encouraging their thirst for knowledge and making learning so fun, you want to keep doing it!

My husband and I were debating where we were going to hold our daughter's 5th birthday party when…read morewe came across Tanya's review of her birthday party experience (see her yelp review below) and we were sold!!!! We booked the Big Birthday Blowout and it was AMAZING!!! Upon arrival, we were given a cart to wheel in whatever food we brought (it is a peanut-free facility, which we appreciate as our child has peanut allergies). The facility provides cups, napkins, cutlery and has cake cutting materials. You can also request they provide pitchers and cups of water) Their staff takes care of both the lab set up as well as the food set up (you bring the food, they set up). *Note - if you have smaller kids, they have a play area that smaller kids can play in with Magnatiles and blocks. We got 1 hour of time in the lab (we chose the slime theme) where the staff did an amazing job captivating and maintaining the attention of all of the kids at the party! The kids each get to wear a lab coat and lab googles which make for super cute pictures. After the Lab session, the staff lead the kids to the bathrooms to wash hands, and sat them down to eat. The staff then donned gloves and helped distribute the food as well as handling the cake cutting when it was time to cut the cake. They literally did EVERYTHING!!!! (The one thing I wished I had done was also ask the staff to set some plates and cutlery outside of the eating area so that parents can eat as well. I was able to move some of the food, plates, and cutlery out to make it more accessible to parents, but wished I had planned it better so that I was not on the staff's way when they were feeding the kids.) After everyone has eaten and gotten cake, the staff then distributed goodie bags (made by them and included in the cost of the party) to all the kids. It was an amazingly well-run machine. They also helped to load the cart of stuff to bring back to the car! We didn't have to clean up, they do it all!!!! Shout out to Mr. Sampson who lead the birthday party from Lab, to hand washing, to handing out gift bags. He was absolutely amazing! I describe him as the "Pied Piper of Science," because he had all the kids just enthralled with everything he did! He is super animated, super engaged - myself and many of the parents there were blown away by this man's energy and his ability to captivate and hold the attention of an audience of 3-5 year olds! We had a great experience, and I know the kids and other parents did as well! I highly recommend doing birthday parties there!

A great, little neighborhood playground. Perfect for younger and older children, complete with sand…read morebox, slides and a play structure. More than half of the block is a field for frisbee, soccer and running fun. Be mindful that a LOT of people use it as an off leash dog park and play fetch with their dogs (of all sizes), so use caution if bringing younger or fearful children/adults. Trees around the park make for a great cover in sunshiney times. A couple of picnic tables and benches are also interspersed near the playground. The park also hosts a wading pool, full and manned on select summer days. In the winters, if it snows, the hill becomes a sledding hill and is inundated with families having fun, building snow-people and igloos in the field.

Very quiet place during week days. So keep an eye out. I am glad they offer wading pool even with…read morenot that many kids as other pools. There were like 5 kids in a period of 1.5 hours. They would come and go. We stayed and played. Basketball court is a few steps from it just by the restrooms. I am glad parents keep looking for everybody's children. We avoid a couple of accidents like a toddler falling from a column there. I think it Parks and Recreation should take it away to avoid this kind of things. Even when watching kids, you won't be able to run if you are on the other side or in the pool with another kid. There were also people with unleashed dogs that were running and barking at a Runner.

We didn't get lucky with everything--the lion was taking a nap and completely out of sight--but honestly, that's part of the experience. The kids still had a great time seeing the giraffes and exploring the other exhibits. What really made our visit stand out was a small moment that turned into something special. We stopped by the VR area near the carousel and met Catherine, who was incredibly kind and welcoming. She asked what we wanted to watch, and my daughter ended up chatting with her and mentioned her birthday was coming up. Out of nowhere, Catherine surprised us with a couple of carousel passes and a little birthday clip. It completely made my daughter's day--you could see how excited she was, and that kind of genuine kindness sticks with you. We come here pretty often during the summer since we're members, and experiences like this are exactly why we keep coming back. The staff really goes the extra mile. If I had one small suggestion, it would be to add more hand sanitizer stations, especially around the food areas and restrooms. It would just make things a bit more convenient for families. Overall, we love this place and appreciate the effort they put into both the animals and the guest experience. Looking forward to many more visits.

The lanterns are spaced out well, so it never feels crowded or rushed, and there's a nice rhythm to the walk where you naturally slow down and take things in. Some sections feel calm and quiet, others are more colorful and playful, and it all flows really well along the zoo paths. I grabbed tacos from one of the food spots and a cappuccino from a coffee stand, which was exactly what I wanted on a cold evening. Simple, warm, and easy to enjoy while wandering. It's the kind of setup where you can snack, stroll, stop, and keep moving without breaking the mood. Overall, Wild Lanterns 2025 feels well thought out without being overdone. It works just as well for a relaxed solo walk as it does with friends or family, and it's one of the few seasonal events I'm genuinely happy to make a repeat tradition.
