We stumbled on the Singapore Night Festival last year while we were in town and caught some of the outdoor acts. We fell in love with the experience immediately. So this year, when we saw the #SGNightFest2015 brochures, we knew we had to come. Visit Official Website here. What is it? The Singapore Night Festival is an annual festival celebrating heritage, arts, food and everything in between! It is held primarily around the vicinity of Singapore’s Arts and Heritage Precincts of Bras Basah, … [Read more...]
Moving, Mesmerizing, Magical! Disney on Classic – A Magical Night Asia Tour 2015 (SEA Premiere)
While we are all very familiar with Disney animations and musicals (and definitely not unfamiliar with Disneylands), we were not quite sure what to expect from this orchestral concert apart from knowing that it would be live singing and live orchestra on stage. As it turns out, this is one superb concert, one that every child or every child at heart should not miss. Conducted by illustrious Disney composer and conductor, Brad Kelly and boasting a New York cast of 8 veteran Disney singers, it … [Read more...]
Temasek Presents Jubilee at the Botanics – A Celebration in the Gardens!
Music plays a big part in any celebrations. From anthems to waltzes, fanfares to choruses, orchestral music has always accompanied national celebrations. They add to the pomp and pageantry of the occasions but most importantly, rouse the emotions of the people, uniting them in one spirit. It is therefore befitting for Singapore’s 50th Jubilee that we have our very own internationally renowned orchestra - the Singapore Symphony Orchestra, pay a musical tribute 'Jubilee at the Botanics' for all … [Read more...]
The Omni-Theatre Singapore: Where even the sky is no limit!

Imagine going into warp speed and beyond the Milky way, flying past pulsars and quasars into the final frontier while you sit comfortably in the revamped interior of the Omni-Theatre as the live presenter brings you ‘boldly where no man … [Read more...]
Every family wins at the Cold Storage Kids Run 2015
Dear Dana, Congratulations Darling! You’ve completed your first solo run. It was 800m and you ran with all your might. You told Mommy and I later that you “didn’t stop running” and when you were tired, you “ jogged and bounced”...Haha, things that Daddy taught you during those sessions we had in the gym and eventually at the running tracks nearby. We are very proud of you. For the record, we didn’t know which position you came in. Because it simply didn’t matter. What was important was you … [Read more...]
Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum (LKCNHM): Weird & Wonderful World
God made the wild animals of the earth…and God saw that it was good. (Genesis 1:25) With a faint ‘beep’ of the serial code on my ticket, I was in! Having visited the famed American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) in New York twice, I was dreaming of the day when Singapore would have a Natural History Museum of its very own. Well, that day is finally here and I was so excited I made sure I bought tickets to bring my family to visit it on its opening day! What is a Natural History … [Read more...]
Queenstown Heritage Trail: Dawson & Alexandra
At last year’s inaugural Queenstown Heritage Trail led by volunteers, we explored parts of the Tanglin Halt and Duchess which proved to be an eye-opening, educational experience for me. Being a naturalised Singaporean, I’ve always been keen to discover more about my adopted country and hopefully enthuse my children to do the same - to appreciate the heritage that is their home. So when the invitation came again to discover the other parts of the 'Queenstown Heritage Trail', I … [Read more...]

A couple of us Mommy Bloggers will be taking you island wide as we go in search for some of these beloved but not forgotten old-school playgrounds that hold special memories of our childhood.

The Safari Zoo Run 2015
Even before our daughter could walk, I’m already convinced that she would love running. I believe that perseverance and resilience can be cultivated through sports so I consciously built in activities which promote a love for the great outdoors. Since she was as young as 3, we’ve participated in several run events as Daddy-Daughter team. In fact, last year, I felt a tinge of sadness when I was told it would be the very last time we qualify for the parent-child race (after she turns 7yr old, she … [Read more...]
