Have Fun with Your Kids in Singapore

Singapore is the destination of thrilling adventures, natural beauties, and extraordinary animals. Whether it’s going on a River Safari or visiting the top Universal Studios, you’re likely to experience a lot of things in Singapore.

So, here are some of the fun things that you can do with your kids in Singapore: 



Take a Trip to Universal Studios

Universal Studios Singapore is divided into seven themed zones which is the perfect destination to visit with your kids. This is one of the most popular amusement parks in Singapore comprising 28 rides, shows and attractions that will appeal to people of all age groups. 

Universal Studios is located in Resort World Sentosa and is one of the properly constructed theme parks of Singapore. Apart from the rides, you can also enjoy shopping for souvenirs and dining on exquisite foods.

Ride the Sentosa Express

If you and your kids love visiting and exploring different places, you’re likely to get the experience of a lifetime on Sentosa Island. This adventure island is located on the coast of Singapore that you can access by bus, car and cable. If not these, take a ride on Sentosa Express to Sentosa Island. 

Sentosa Island houses aquariums, water parks and Madame Tussauds Wax Museum too. However, you may not be able to cover everything in Sentosa Island in one day so plan your trip accordingly. If you want to fascinate your kids, you may also consider booking lunch in the sky. 

Experience Magnificence in Ferris Wheel

The Ferris Wheel of Singapore is one of the wonders of Singapore that is situated 541 feet above sea level. When you’re on the top of the Ferris Wheel of Singapore, you can surprise your kids by letting them spot three major countries of Southeast Asia- Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore. 

The panoramic view from the Ferris Wheel is one of the best things you can ever witness. Your kids are sure to love the ride. If you’re worried about motion sickness, don’t worry, your kids are likely not to get it. The ferris wheel moves slowly and the ride will last for half-an-hour. Well, don’t worry about any dizziness on the top, because it’s all normal. 

Surprise them at Gardens by the Bay

There’s a reason why Singapore is known as the Garden City- that’s Gardens by the Bay. This futuristic, star attraction adds a true meaning to the ‘Urban Jungle’ especially with its Supertree Grove. Located around the Marina Bay Sands, Gardens by the Bay is one of the major attractions around the skyline of Singapore. 

The indoor gardens here have exotic plants which are built on an ecosystem of their own. You can also surprise your kids at the Cloud Forest Conservatory’s tallest indoor waterfalls which is again covered with clouds. The modern technology complimenting nature in a climate-controlled environment can foster imagination in your kids. Try to take your kids to Gardens by the Bay during the night. So that they can experience the beautiful lights. 

Watch Animals at Singapore Zoo

Singapore Zoo is one of the most loved destinations in Singapore by kids. Spanning across 70 acres, Singapore Zoo is every animal lover’s dream come true. It houses more than 3600 species of mammals, reptiles birds and other animals that your children are sure to find exciting. 

The exclusive zones in the zoo are carefully marked based on the animal’s behavior, habitat and habits. If your kid wants to watch the fantastic beasts, you can’t just miss out on taking them here. The zoo is home to numerous animals like lions, kangaroos, tigers and bears. 

It was a delight for us because teens burned off a lot of energy while soaking in the zoo and shooting lots of snaps. We had plenty of time to take photos of nature and its contrast with the concrete jungles of Singapore.

Trick Your Kids at Trick Eye Museum

Your kids are surely going to love this, because of all the unique tricks that they’re likely to experience at the Trick Eye Museum. Let the imagination of your kids fly as they delve into fighting dragons, visiting castles and so much more all within one roof. 

Not only fun adventures, the Trick Eye Museum is also the home to various art installations that are 2D and 3D. If you want to add an extra layer of fun for your kids, make sure to take them to the spot where 4D arts are installed. The architecture at the museum uses a fine blend of AR technology and art which is nothing less than a visual treat for your kids. 

Take Them on a DuckTOUR

The DuckTOUR is likely to be an experience of a lifetime for your kids, so don’t forget to take your kids here when you’re in Singapore. A World War II Vietnamese aircraft was remodeled to turn it into the DuckTour vehicle. During the tour, you’re likely to cross a wide range of places that will be quite surprising for the kids. 

Some of the iconic destinations that you’re likely to experience when you’re on the DuckTour include Esplanade Theaters on the Bay, Marina Bay on the Sands, Singapore Flyer, Gardens by the Bay, and Merlion Park.
