We brought the kids to the National Gallery for a short visit before we flew off for our family vacation. Decked in Rockin’ Baby clothes, Dana and Buddy explored the grounds of National Gallery in chic, casual comfort. Rockin’ Baby is a brand from the US that donates a piece of clothing for every piece it sells and is currently distributed in Singapore by Le Petit Society.

We spent considerable amount of time at The Balloon Forest which is a balloon installation set up as part of the Gallery’s Light to Night Festival (in conjunction with The National Gallery’s 1st Birthday Celebrations which ran from 25 November to 4 December 2016).  Who would have thought that a museum can be so colourful and child-friendly? For families with kids, we also recommend spending some time at the Keppel Centre for Art Education which you can easily spend an afternoon there. You can view some highlights of it inside this post which we wrote last November when it first opened.
