Where To Take The Kids This Weekend: Try These 6 Spots
1. Babyluxe - Have Fun with Organic and Safe Products!
The bath bomb-making workshop is brought to you by Babyluxe, an omni-channel 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!
What’s In Store for this Fun Parent-Child Bonding Activity
1. Fun and interactive 1-hour session that introduces you and your child to the fizzing world of hand-made bath bombs
Kids love colours and textures and this will be a great way for them to explore these. It’s a wonderful alternative to watching television and they will feel the satisfaction that comes with making something from nothing!
2. Learn the basics of making all-natural, non-toxic bath bombs from scratch
This fun parent-child bonding activity will go a long way in introducing your kids to the world of DIY! After this workshop, you can always make more bath bombs in the comfort of your own home. Furthermore, you and your kids can explore making other crafts and DIY projects after this. Along with enjoying the activity, your kids can learn that not everything has to be store-bought.
3. Customise your own bath to create your own fizzy fun, and bring home your own creation
Everyone loves to customise! Your kids will have the space to release their creative energy. And at the end of it, they will have a sense of pride and accomplishment when looking at their very own creation!
4. A sensory-play experience for your little ones
Sensory play boasts a host of benefits for the little ones. It encourages them to learn through exploration, curiosity, problem-solving and creativity. In addition, it helps to build nerve connections in the brain and encourages the development of motor skills!
5. A great way for you and your child to make memories together
Taking part in a fun parent-child bonding activity will definitely be a memory that your child will hold dear for a long time.
Mums and Dads, this activity is for kids aged 2.5 years old and above. Each workshop is priced at $90 per pair of adult-kid or adults. If you’d like a private workshop, you can arrange for it at $250 per workshop for up to 3 pairs of adults and kids, or just adults, and $320 per workshop for up to 4 pairs.
So there you go, a fun parent-child bonding activity in which you have fun, take home something and make a great memory! What better way to spend the day? If it sounds like something you’d enjoy, visit the Babyluxe website for more information. You can send them a direct message if you have any questions, or to make your booking.
Enjoy a fun, fizzy and fabulous day making bath bombs with your child!
2. Explore nature at NParks
NParks is where to take the kids this weekend for some outdoor fun! Their new initiative "Families for Nature" includes activities where you can experience the beauty of nature. These exciting events are divided into four categories: Nature Adventurer, Wildlife Guardian, CIN Ambassador, and SGBioAtlas Contributor.
Participate in the activities with the whole family to receive puzzle pieces after completing each task. Collect all four pieces and form a map of Singapore's rich biodiversity as you learn more about it.
3. Immerse yourself in the art of Dale Chihuly: Glass in Bloom
At Gardens by the Bay, you're sure to find a place where to take the kids this weekend! Our pick for this list is the new Dale Chihuly: Glass in Bloom display at the Flower Dome. Here, world-renowned glass artist Dale Chihuly will feature a landscape of incredible glass sculptures.
You can also snap family photos in the new installations of Electric Yellow and Deep Coral Tower, White Tower, Erbium Reeds and Trumpet Flowers and Neodymium Reeds. The sculptures will be available to see from 23 April to 1 August. So make sure to check them out!

This indoor playground located inside the National Library at Tampines is perfect for some safe indoor fun.
5. Celebrate Earth Day at Hard Rock Cafe
Only until 30 April, you can celebrate Earth Day with Hard Rock Cafe's Ultimate Earth Day Bundle. You can try their Vegetarian Beyond Burger, and even get your hands on denim tote bag, 3-piece reusable straw set, and a packet of seeds.
About five percent of the proceeds from the bundles will also be donated to Singapore Environment Council for their Training and Education initiatives. Let your kids learn more about how they can help keep our planet clean and climate-resilient and enjoy delicious food, simultaneously.
6. Get active with the whole family
Another fun activity to indulge in is happening at Gardens by the Bay. It's called Active Family Programme.
