Try out a bath bomb-making workshop arranged by Babyluxe, an omnichannel retail store that also offers in-person workshops for both kids and adults. When it comes to bath bomb making, we understand that you might have concerns about what the products are made of. After all, as parents, it’s only natural that we want to minimise our kids’ exposure to unnecessary chemicals and toxins. 

Well, fret not, for Babyluxe’s products are organic and safe. Babyluxe is committed to bringing a gentler world to you and your little ones. The bath bombs that you will be making are all-natural, organic and non-toxic, so you can put your mind at ease while enjoying this fun parent-child bonding activity!

There go the birds

Bird watching might be boring to some people but for families who visit Jurong Bird Park. Go and witness seeing different beautiful species of birds for an exhilarating experience!

Jurong Bird Park, the largest bird park in the world, boasts 20-plus hectares of bird haven. It houses over four thousand birds. Adults and children alike can get a chance to pet different parrots and even enjoy breakfast with the elegantly pink flamingos.

Just Keep Swimming

Let your children experience the deep sea without getting wet by visiting the Underwater World Aquarium in Sentosa.

As Asia’s largest oceanarium, it features an 83-meter tunnel with a travelator so little kids and older individuals don’t easily get tired while enjoying the sight of over 2500 marine life including huge sharks, giant stingrays, schools of fish and more.

Fly high

If the entire family is not scared of heights, hop on to the Singapore Flyer. Surpassing the London Eye, the Singapore Flyer is considered as the highest Ferris Wheel in the world. Your family can soak in the breathtaking view of Singapore’s skyline while aboard! Plus, you might even get a glimpse of Malaysia while on top of the ride.

Food Trip

Singaporean cuisine is known all over the world because it is just simply delicious. Of course, no visit to the country is complete without sampling some of their delicacies.

For breakfast, we suggest you try the Kaya Toast, one of Singapore's staples. It is a sweet, pandan-flavoured spread that is placed on toast and served with eggs and tea.

For those with kids who can take the heat, go ahead and order the famous Singaporean Chilli Crab to test their spice tolerance. The Chilli Crab can be a bit messy to eat but it surely is worth it.

Religious places of interest

There are hundreds of temples, churches and mosques all over Singapore and no visit to the country is complete without visiting them. The most visited ones are those temples located in Little India.

These temples are beautiful and colourful. Children would have a great time posing for pictures and just inspecting the old temples. Don’t forget to teach them a thing or two about history as well.

Bloom it

Singapore is known as the Garden of Eden of Asia because of its many parks and gardens. But did you know that this country also has National Orchid Gardens?

The National Orchid Gardens is home to different orchids including some rare species. The entire family will surely be awed by the beauty and colours of these lovely orchids.
