Pre-booking tip: Don’t forget to rent a baby stroller or a booster seat

Two of the most important items you need to ferry your little one(s) around safely and comfortably are strollers and booster seats.

If you don’t own a booster seat, there are many places in Singapore that allow you to rent it. City Baby is one that offers baby seats and strollers.

Little Baby is another that offers a wide range of car seats and strollers, as well as baby slings, stroller accessories, and even feeding items like bottles and cups.

01 • Shop for clothes with your lil’ bubba

Your growing child always needs new clothes! Plus, why not make them fashionable, too?

Best of all, clothes shopping for your kids doesn’t have to be expensive. There’s plenty of affordable yet stylish choices available, such as Cotton On Kids and Love, Bonito. If you’re on the lookout for costumes for the upcoming National Day Parade, check out Little Kooma’s cute National Day collection.

02 • Have a blast all afternoon at an indoor playground

Don’t make the mistake of thinking that indoor playgrounds are only for older kids — there are baby-friendly places for your toddlers, too! For example, there’s Pororo Park, with highlights like the Express Train and Poby’s Gym. You can also head down to Buds by Shangri-La, which boasts an immersive play area and an outdoor water playground.

03 • Take your bubba for a swim to beat the afternoon heat

Did you know that infants are naturally great swimmers? Singapore has baby-friendly swimming centres that hone the Michael Phelps in them — plus, you also get to have a splashing good time together.

Our top recommendations are Little Splashes Aquatics, SmileSwimmers, and Happy Fish Swim School.

04 • Have a lunch picnic

Having a picnic is one of the easiest ways to bond with your children, even if your little one is an infant or toddler. All you have to do is cook or order a delicious meal, and drive down to a nice scenic location.

Don’t forget to bring along a radio or use your smartphone to play some tunes — as well as some toys like a football or frisbee for some playtime.

Some GetGoers-approved picnic spots include Botanic Gardens, Changi Beach, and Marina Barrage.

05 • Pamper your baby with a morning spa

You heard that right — there are spa centres for babies in Singapore! With services like baby massages and hydrotherapy, which involves letting your child float in the water while wearing a float ring. It’s said to improve joint movement and flexibility, as well as relax them.

Not only that, you can also take your child out for a pampering hair and nail session and have a girly good time together.

Our favourites are BabySPA, Shugar Spa, and Aramsa The Garden Spa.

06 • Go on a morning dinosaur safari

There’s no doubt that kids love dinosaurs. Perhaps, their top favourite is the T-Rex, known for its razor-sharp teeth and fearsome claws.

So, what better way to satisfy their fascination than with an outing at Changi Jurassic Mile? As you walk on down the 1-kilometre trail, take time to introduce your bubbas to more than 20 life-size dinos including the gentle giants that ate plants and those that flew!

 

07 • Spend the night stargazing

Another equally fascinating subject to kids is the outer space. So why not drive them to an open field for a night of stargazing? You can challenge each other to identify constellations and pick out planets from stars.

While it’s true that Singapore doesn’t have many stargazing spots but there are a few that are still worth a visit. Some top sites include Yishun Dam, Changi Bay Point, and Woodlands Galaxy Community Club.

08 • Go out for a stroll during the evening

The evening brings all sorts of new sights and sounds that your child should experience. Imagine crickets chirping, the setting sun casting a beautiful twilight scene, and the bustling of people heading home.

Take an evening stroll or explore a playground in nature. It’s the best way to soothe your lil’ bubbas and expose them to the outside world.

Some of our favourite places to visit with kids are HortPark, Jurong Lake Gardens, and the exciting COMO Adventure Grove at Botanic Gardens.

09 • Have a night meeting with animals

Animals are a big hit among kids of all ages. Night Safari’s 30th Anniversary features exhilarating activities like an animal feeding session, where you can witness nocturnal animals like the Indian Rhino and Clouded Leopard coming out for mealtime.

There’s also a hybrid fire performance that showcases skilled dancers with daring moves. Get up to 30% off your tickets for this limited-time tour!

Here’s to a fun family outing!
