Bond: Discover Sentosa on Roblox
Now, your kids can explore Sentosa virtually on the popular gaming platform Roblox. This is the island attraction’s first foray into the metaverse, via a virtual space known as SentosaLand.
Players can take part in online quests such as the Siloso Speedway luge race and Imbiah Magical Forest adventure course.
Collect the highest number of virtual coins on the leaderboard until Feb 28 for a chance to win a staycation at Sofitel Singapore Sentosa Resort & Spa. Other rewards include tickets to Madame Tussauds Singapore and limited-edition Sentosa mini building block sets.
If your family is new to Roblox, download it on your mobile phone or desktop and register for an account for free. Then, search for SentosaLand, which comes with built-in safety features from Roblox, such as chat filters and parental controls. Find out more at bit.ly/FBSentosaLandChallenge
If you prefer to visit the island in real life, here is some good news. Admission via Sentosa Express or drive-in is still free, as the promotion has been extended to March 31.

While watching a film in the cinema, you would usually want your little ones to sit still and keep quiet. But here is one where you can let them loose.
Pinkfong Wonderstar: Sing-Along Concert is an animated movie that they can bop and croon along to with their beloved characters.
In the 73-minute show, Pinkfong and Hogi decide to hold a concert with their Wonderville friends, but conflicts arise during their practice sessions as they strive to deliver the perfect show.
The lyrics that pop up karaoke-style at the bottom of the screen are an open invitation for your kids to belt out Pinkfong’s discography, which includes the all-time favourite Baby Shark Dance and classic nursery rhyme Six Little Ducks.
Now showing exclusively at Cathay Cineplexes, this is the South Korean animated family’s first sing-along movie on the big screen.
