It’s quite easy to get your kids excited
about a vacation, but keeping them engaged on the trip? That’s a whole other
story. Singapore happens to be one of the most kids-friendly countries, and you
can have a great holiday if you plan well. Singapore holidays offer a little bit of everything for the kids, nature and wildlife
at the various parks and zoos, entertainment and games and plenty of dining
options when they’re ravenous after a day out.
Here are some favorites among kids, so next time you book your tour
package to Singapore you can make sure you don’t miss any of these.
Jurong
Bird Park – Built on the Jurong hill slopes, this
bird park is home to more than 5000 birds.
The Birds ‘n’ Buddies Show is very popular, especially among kids. After
the show you can have them take a picture with the lovely bevy of parrots that
are extremely photogenic!
Singapore
Zoo and the Night Safari – These two attractions
are located next to each other, and you can plan a whole day out. The Singapore
Zoo has an open concept, or a cage-less environment, which will be a unique experience
for the kids. The Night Safari is among the best in the world, and you can be
sure the kids will thoroughly enjoy the walking trails and the tram ride to
explore the place.
Resorts
Word Sentosa and Universal Studios – Ask any kid
who has visited Singapore what his or her absolute favorite destination was. Not
an eyelid batted before the answer comes – Universal Studios. With its themed
zones such as Hollywood, Madagascar, and the Lost World (based on Jurassic
Park), it is a sure-shot hit with the kids. And what’s more? You have shops
that sell a variety of merchandise and goodies. Be prepared to handle
sugar-crazed kids and a lighter wallet!
Also check out other attractions on Sentosa
like the Marine Life Park and the Maritime Experiential Museum.
East
Coast Park – After all the glitz and glamour of Universal
Studios, if you want the kids to try something outdoorsy, head to the East
Coast Park for some cycling, rollerblading, or simply a family picnic with an
evening snack. Let them try their hand at the bowling alley before you head out
for a nice dinner.
Marina
Bay Sands Waterfront - The Marina Bay is one of the
most stunning parts of Singapore. The
Marina Bay Sands Resort is a spectacular sight at night, and you can have a
lazy evening stroll on the Promenade with the kids. Perhaps take them up on the Singapore flyer
to get a bird’s eye view of the city.
Singapore
is one place where you don’t need to worry while travelling with kids. There
are ramps for baby strollers in most places including shopping malls, if you’re
travelling with infants. Travelling with kids requires meticulous planning, so
it may be easier to book packages to Singapore so that you can travel stress free. So, stop
thinking, and get packing!
