6 Free and Almost Free Things To Do In Henderson this Weekend

Firelight Barn

This Ace in the hole will not disappoint! From tots to seniors you can rest assured the entire family will be swaying in their seats to the pitches, beats, and foot-stomping good times!  Mama's Wranglers, the Jackson Family Band & Clogger, headlines Firelight Barn in more shows in a month than you can shake a stick at!  They offer special schedules for the social butterflies that include karaoke, Line Dancing, and Bunco! Firelight Barn even offers special engagements with Guest Artists of high caliber.

Uptown Jungle Fun Park

Uptown Jungle is your go-to family-friendly fun park!  You will spend hours and hours in the comfortable parent lounge while the kids are running, jumping, and climbing!  Once your stop, you will be back over and over again!  Consider an Annual Membership!  If you are looking for a place to have a Birthday Party to remember, mention Macaroni Kid!

Henderson Multigenerational Center

Do your kids like to climb the Rock wall?  Do your kiddos want to swim INDOORS? The Henderson MultiGen offers Battle Born Kids for the days that school is out and parents work or just need a break!  Classes are offered daily, and everything from kitchen classes to gymnastics!

Clark County Wetlands Park

Parks, Trailheads, and classes!  There is something for everyone at the Wetlands! With over 210 acres in the nature preserve the wetlands are your best bet for stretching those legs and seeking some education. It offers three distinct habitats along the miles and miles of paved and unpaved trails. Bring a picnic or register for the many art classes offered monthly.  

Clark County Museum

For the parents that are seeking in education, here is another gem! For a buck or two, you can spend a couple of hours exploring how Clark County came to be. You start the journey when Clark County was just giant wolves. Ok, I may need a refresher, but it follows the timeline with Native Americans and the games the kiddos played! Then Ragtown and the building of Hover Dam, all the way up the showgirls and old casino relics! There is even more outside. Honestly, this is in my top 5 Best places to take pictures in the area!

Henderson Bird Viewing Preserve

You will want to go bird watching as early as possible. In fact, the BVP is open early, even earlier in the summer months. They just added a new Butterfly Garden to compliment the 140 sprawling acres. Bring comfy play clothes, as this is not a paved trail. In the summer months, you can plan on seeing the tortoise. Be sure to ask for the Bird Scavenger Hunt!
