A Fun Filled Children's Weekend at Jurong Bird Park and Singapore Zoo

By Isabel Cheng

Singapore - Sunny sky, trees billowing, birds tweeting and mischievous primates playfully swinging from branch to branch – a fun outdoor learning classroom to pique a child’s curiosity about wildlife! Learning is so cool!

At the Jurong Bird Park, children become eggs-perts through the interactive eggs-periment session – stand on ostrich eggs to test its strength, make shellless eggs and bounce them or see the egg’s inside using a candling machine and more.

Over at the Singapore Zoo, stimulating activities abound this Children’s Day with fun and exciting performances such as magic show. Discover more about animal babies and the different transformation stages of their life cycles to become adults at the Wildlife Learning Centre.

Don’t wait! Head down to Jurong Bird Park and Singapore Zoo this Children’s Day where we know what kids want.
