The Penguins at Jurong Bird Park are Having a People Sleepover

By Laura Chew 

Singapore - Ready for a magical experience of a lifetime? Pack your blankets, snuggle up with your family and learn more about our cute little feathery friends at Jurong Bird Park in the “Sleep with the Penguins” camp! If you have always wanted to come face to face with penguins, now is the chance to do so with an exclusive meet-and-greet session. Discover things you never knew about your tuxedoed friends!

Spanning over two days and one night, the “Sleep with the Penguins” family camp is enriched with fun as well as educational activities like the meet-and-greet session with parrots, Lory Loft Guided Tour, and Avian Hospital Tour. Did you know that birds fall sick just like we do? Camp members will get a peek of the hospital for a firsthand experience of the unique treatments given to birds.

Did we also mention the mouth-watering barbeque dinner at the scenic Pelican Cove? Come nightfall, there will be an exciting , World of Darkness'  tour at the owl exhibit. Get set for a thrilling good time with bird riddles and games. Stalk the owls and find out why they are known as the silent killers of the night. And before the night ends, everyone can huddle round a bonfire for some supper and heart-warming merriment. 

That's not all. When the sun rises, a hearty breakfast spread and some chirpy friends will greet you and your family at the Early Bird Breakfast show. It's endless fun for one and all! Book your place soon as only a maximum of 40 participants are allowed.
