See the joy on your kids’ faces as they glide down a 20m-long roller slide, with rainbow arches over them.
The feature is not just Instagram-worthy, but also a fun way for your family to enter Gardens by the Bay’s Children’s Festival that runs until June 25.
Themed Nature’s Imaginarium, the ninth edition of the annual event aims to nurture a curiosity about biodiversity and sustainability among the young.
As they play at six installations based on plants and animals that can be found at the attraction, they can learn about the ecosystem through colourful storyboards as well.
Families can hop on a 10m-long caterpillar train for a guided learning journey.

Spray-paint a wall, make marbling art on coasters and join a contemporary dance class with your children.
These are some highlights at Goodman Arts Centre’s annual open house on June 24.
Its artists have prepared an extensive line-up of free and ticketed programmes that run from 10am to 5pm.
For most of the activities at the art enclave, participants should wear comfortably loose outfits for easy movement or clothing that they do not mind getting paint on.

Tickets to most of the bouncy playgrounds cost $6 a child and $2 an accompanying adult, for each inflatable.
In the shopping area, you will find inflatable flower displays. Snap photos with them and take part in an Instagram contest to win movie tickets. And, over the weekend, look out for a roving balloon artist who will sculpt floral pieces.
