Theme & Amusement Parks in Spring Valley

Recognized as the Best Family Attraction by Best of Vegas in 2010, Sky Zone fuses fun and fitness into one atmospheric package for guests of all ages, sizes, and skill levels. Inside the facility's 3-D-walled playing fields, jumpers bound and ricochet across angled trampolines that transform traditional games such as dodge ball and long division into challenging new tests of aerial prowess. Additionally, SkyRobics fitness classes add a new dimension to exercise routines, and the Foam Zone lets guests cannonball into a plushy pit of foam boxes to experience what it would be like inside one of the moon's many FedEx locations.

In 1976, Joan Barnes—a California mom frustrated with the lack of spaces where she could take her kids for safe and age-appropriate play time—took matters into her own hands and founded Gymboree Play and Music. In the decades since Gymboree’s founding, Joan’s vision of a safe place where youngsters could build confidence and creativity has come to fruition and spread to 30 countries around the globe. Staffed by attentive and expertly trained instructors, each Gymboree outpost adheres to a curriculum of activities designed by experts to foster the development of children's cognitive, physical, and social skills through structured play and close readings of Goodnight Moon. The staffers also conduct entertaining classes for parents, newborns, and children under 1 year that cover subjects ranging from music to sports, imparting valuable lessons of imagination and physical activity to developing minds. To further set apart her business, Barnes employed nationally renowned playground designer Jay Beckwith to design the proprietary play equipment at her centers.

Inspired by Michelle Obama’s Let's Move! initiative, Lily Sirsy set out to do her part to fight childhood obesity and promote lifetimes of healthy habits. Her passion resulted in Jumpfit Kids, a safe, colorful space for Nevada families to play, exercise, and create. Amid the 3,000-square-foot play gym, tots can defy gravity in one of two indoor bounce houses, tell tall tales with puppet theater, or expand their palates and built-in water wings in a variety of art, cooking, and exercise classes. Junior-size cardio equipment in bright primary colors fills the kids' fitness center, encouraging whippersnappers to work up a sweat or produce enough electricity to power a gingerbread house.

Blood-curdling screams reverberate through the two haunted houses that make up Blood Village, a sleepy hollow of gruesome scenery and deranged tenants. Inside the Haunted Mansion, dark corridors and blood-soaked fiends bring guests' worst fears to life, particularly for those afraid of murderous clowns’ oversized pants, and an undead horde staggers through the Zombie Infection realm, eager to feast on idling brains. Blood Village also hosts the Last Ride attraction, which entombs customers in a wooden coffin, simulating the bone-chilling experience of being buried alive or waking up in a closed trundle bed.

Not content with the disappointing, dizzying carnival coasters of their youth, the Sahara entertainmentologists and the NASCAR speed shamans formed a holy alliance to create Speed–The Ride, a coaster that races along 1,364 feet of track. Your adventures in the Speedpocolypse begin when you are catapulted by a burst of electromagnetic energy, only to be plummeted 25 feet below the earth's surface through a misty sewer labyrinth. Because the only thing more attractive to speed addicts than riding a NASCAR-approved machine is riding that speed demon through a busy casino, passengers will hit up to 70 mph as they speed through the nearly 200-foot Sahara marquee. Utterly relentless, the ride's cheek-smashing climax features a stunning twist ending where you'll stop 224 feet in the air only to realize the whole ride is starting again in reverse, like favorite palindromes such as mom , racecar, and Drew Barrymore.
