Looking for ways on how you can spend family bonding time in Singapore?
Check out these 7 attractions that’s sure to be a hit with the kids and the adults alike.
Gardens By The Bay is a veritable paradise found right at the heart of Singapore. The reclaimed land spans around 101 hectares and is split up into two parts- the Bay East Garden and the Bay South Garden, and each one has its own thrilling specialty for guests and visitors to see.
The horticultural attraction is in close proximity to the Children’s Garden, which is a must-visit if you have young children. It has water gardens you can play in and interactive playgrounds that promise an afternoon of good fun.
Visiting in the summer? Then you must see the artificial domes with natural environments contained within them. The Cloud Forest is named as such because of the mist that sprays out of the largest indoor waterfall.
Gardens By The Bay also has the distinction of having the largest greenhouse made of glass, displaying Mediterranean flowers and plants. Don’t forget to take a photo of the Supertree Grove and pass through the elevated boardwalk for breathtaking views of the Singapore Flyer, the Marina Bay Sands and the city skyline.
You won’t need to book in advance, and there are several packages you can choose on the website. The water rides in Wild Wild Wet are amazingly diverse. For instance, there’s the Ular-Lah, the 1st indoor white water raft ride in Southeast Asia; the Shiok River is great for when you want to relax or even take a nap as you float on a slow, gentle stream.
Adventurous family members can try out the Water Works, a flume-style attraction that drops you into a pool, Torpedo, a daring free-fall slide that’s 18 meters high, and the Side Up, a half-pipe ride that has exciting zips and turns.
For lunch, you can visit the nearby restaurants and cafes for a quick bite. Don’t forget to visit the shops for souvenirs.
Family day Singapore can be the perfect event to bring family members closer together via team-building activities.
Technologically-inclined kids can play a Game of Drones, and those who grew up with Mario can try out the HoverGP game. For something new, there’s the Sandbox VR, a virtual reality-type activity that requires teamwork, cooperation and good shooting skills. You can also try an Escape Room theme, where the object of the game is to escape a horde of ravenous zombies by finding clues and solving puzzles.
Each activity is geared towards bringing family members together at the end of the day. Plus, it’s novel, fun and beats spending the weekends at home.
