As summer officially kicks off, we’re all looking for cool family-friendly things to do around Las Vegas! Introducing one of my all-time FAVORITE summertime treats (and local small businesses): Purple Penguin Snowcone Shack! I don’t know about you, but nothing screams summer more to me than a delicious snowcone!
Purple Penguin Snowcone Shack started in 2009, through a leap of faith (as the owners say) and has now blossomed into 5 locations across Henderson and Las Vegas. These beautiful purple trucks provide a great way to spend a summer afternoon. Lean into the Las Vegas heat and enjoy a delicious icy treat that’s become a summertime staple in our household! This is seriously one of my favorite places to grab something cool during the summer!!!!
I love finding family-friendly activities around Las Vegas, and food is always a great way to spend some time with your little ones. Grab a snowcone, find a bench, and enjoy this little taste of summertime! There’s tons of flavor options – which means even your pickiest eater will find something they enjoy! Check out their website for up to date information about the safest way to order as we continue to re-open around the city.
