This June school holidays, kids and their families are set to be blown away as eight specially-designed giant inflatables, measuring up to 12.5metres tall, take centrestage at Gardens by the Bay.
Brought to you by Gardens by the Bay, in partnership with Kiztopia, Singapore’s leading mega-indoor kids’ edutainment playground centre, and featuring Kiztopia Friends, this larger-than-life inflatables installation is part of this year’s Children’s Festival, which runs from 28 May to 19 June at the Supertree Grove.
As travel opens up and we can, once again, see the world, this timely installation brings the world to our hood, without the need to board a plane! Each inflatable features the iconic landmarks of the different countries, such as Mount Fuji in Japan, the Sydney Opera House in Australia and Gardens by the Bay in Singapore. Two of the inflatables allow visitors to “board” the hot air balloon to take photos.
Festival-goers will be greeted at the entrance by their favourite cast of Kiztopia Friends, in the form of an inflatable welcome arch, before they enter to discover the various countries that the characters have “flown” in from. With the lush and picturesque landscape of Gardens by the Bay as the backdrop for the giant, colourful inflatables, they make for amazing instagrammable moments for the whole family.
Get ready to welcome the well-loved Kiztopia Friends characters as they make their highly- anticipated descent in their hot air balloons at Gardens by the Bay.
Joining Tiger in Singapore are Happy the Hippo flying in from Australia, Eli the Elephant making his landing from Japan, Drago the Dragon flying in from Kenya, Mark the Monkey arriving from Thailand and Raby the Rabbit entering from the Netherlands. Each of them brings their best memories of the sights and delights of the country that they have travelled from to share with Singaporeans!
You can see the iconic windmills in the Netherlands through the eyes of Raby, or perhaps venture into the wild safari with Drago taking the lead or be mesmerised by the beauty of Mount Fuji like Eli did. With a total of six country-themed hot air balloon inflatables, there will be ample adventures laid out for kids and their families to explore the world alongside the fun-loving Kiztopia Friends.
In addition to the photogenic inflatables to take unlimited photos with, there is a host of fun activities to complete the kids’ and families’ experience at the Gardens by the Bay Children’s Festival.
- “Play To Learn, Learn Through Play” with Kiztopia
In line with Kiztopia’s ethos of “Play to Learn, Learn Through Play” that promotes spontaneous and simultaneous play and learning, kids can pick up a complimentary activity booklet at the entrance or selected points at the venue which they can use to discover interesting facts about each of the countries featured.
By travelling along the trail, they can even collect stamps and hit milestones to redeem an exclusive sticker sheet upon completion of the mission.
- Get Creative Or Be Sporty
There will also be two ticketed interactive zones found at the Supertree Grove Lawn and Colonnade, where families can take part in exciting activities whilst bonding with their kids.
Get creative at Happy’s Craft World, where kids can embark on a craft activity of their country of choice and take home the finished work as keepsakes. The craft activities include clay art painting, scratch painting and 3D puzzle assembling of animals and iconic landmarks synonymous to the countries.
For the active little ones, aged four and above, who are looking for some fun and action under the sun, the Tiger’s Sports Arena, featuring five inflatables of sports carnival games, including basketball, ring toss, soccer and more, is THE place for them!
