With the September school holidays and Children’s Day just around the corner, we get that planning a day filled with exciting activities for your kids can get a little overwhelming. Not to worry, we’ve got you covered.
With numerous activities happening at Changi Airport this September, take this opportunity to engage in some family bonding. Check out what we’ve prepared and get ready for a fun and fulfilling day out with your family!
11:00am: A playground with an incredible view of aeroplanes
Start your day off at the public playground at the Terminal 1 viewing gallery. Not only will your kids be able to run around freely, you can also relax and enjoy the view of the planes on the runway.
If your children are fans of the hilarious Mr. Bean, be sure to check out the Mr. Bean-themed playground, Teddy & Me by SingKids, at Terminal 3 as well.
The best part – You don’t have to worry about your kids getting sweaty and having to change their clothese. The air-conditioned playground keeps them cool and comfy!
Location:
· Viewing Gallery, Terminal 1, Level 3 (Public Area)
· Teddy & Me by Singkids, Terminal 3, Basement 2 (Public Area)
12:00pm: Fill those growling tummies at lunch with Hello Kitty
From 11:00am to 2:00pm every weekend till 8 October 2017, kids dine for free with every adult main course ordered at the Hello Kitty Orchid Garden Café, or any of our 13 participating outlets.
At the Hello Kitty Orchid Garden Café, you’ll be greeted with blooming orchids, lush greenery and life-sized Kitty figurines which make the perfect backdrop for a family “we-fie”.
To stay energised for the second half of the day, we recommend the Big Breakfast Surprise which comes with creamy scrambled eggs, shiitake mushrooms, smoked duck slices, and a mouthwatering Kitty waffle topped with cheese.
If you’re craving for something spicy, opt for Captain’s Favourite Curry, Hello Kitty’s rendition of Penang’s popular Kapitan chicken curry which will delight your senses!
To top it off, all children will receive a special kids pack at these outlets with no minimum spend required. It will include colouring pencils, colouring books, and a paper model to keep them entertained while waiting for their food to be served.
Do remember not to toss your receipts as you will need them later!
Location: Hello Kitty Orchid Garden Café, Terminal 3, Level 1 (Public Area)
1:00pm: Flaunt your creativity at the Wood Block Rubbing Station
Take a breather after lunch and head to the Wood Block Rubbing Station – where you and your kids can create unique colorful imprints by rubbing wood block surfaces that are inspired by local culture and Changi Airport.
If you feel like walking your lunch off, go ahead and do some grocery shopping at the supermarkets nearby, or surprise your kids with a gift from Kidztime, Mini Toons, The Little Shop or one of the many retail stores located nearby.
If you have younger children, a nursing area is located conveniently beside the playground for a quick pit stop if needed.
Location: Wood Block Rubbing Station, Terminal 3, Basement 2 (Public Area, next to the fountain area)
2:00pm: Don’t miss out on the Changi Loves Kids carnival this September!
With carnival rides like the Carousel and Heli-Jet, as well as game stalls and dazzling performances, this is a stop your kids won’t want to miss! Partner your child, and flaunt your parent-child teamwork at carnival game stalls like the Ring Toss and Feed the Lion for a chance to win attractive prizes.
