Answer 1

I wouldn't use de aquí, other than that it looks okay.

A native did. - jeezzle, Jan 18, 2011

They say haber instead of a ver too. :p well I think there is no need.. Because either way it's understood.. - culé, Jan 18, 2011

Answer 2

Lleva los niños al museo. Focus on the museum, take the kids to the museum. Llévate los niños al museo. Focus on the kids, take the kids to the museum.

I've never heard that changing the verb to pronomial would cause this kind of shift in focus. I could be wrong but it seems to me that the first sentence would be "Take the kids to the museum." and the second would be closer to "Take the kids with you to the museum." It's basicly two different ways of saying exactly the same thing.

Llévate los niños de aquí. - This sounds fine w/the aquí. Take the kids out of here.

Llévate los niños de aquí al museo. - That seems a little odd to me with the aquí but it's not wrong. Take the kids from here to the museum.

I heard it from Lazarus I'm pretty sure. - jeezzle, Jan 18, 2011

Well, if Lazarus said so then I guess he's right but if it changes the emphasis at all it seems like it would shift it to you, the person taking the kids, and not to the kids. - alba3, Jan 18, 2011

Is there a thread on it somewhere that he answered? Now I'm curious. - alba3, Jan 18, 2011
