Make: Ice cream and edible slime

The Sundae School programme, by the Museum of Ice Cream in Loewen Road, is back for the June school holidays. Recommended for kids below 13 years old, participants will make ice cream without a machine and learn the science behind it during an hour-long class.

Priced at $68 a child, the sessions are held at 9.30am on Tuesdays and Thursdays until June 22.

If your kids like to play with slime, which are typically made with glue and contact lens solution, discover how to create an edible version instead.

Join a community art-jamming session with your kids. You will be painting on canvas outlines inspired by the works of those with disabilities, who were behind the National Day Parade 2020 to 2022 collaterals.

Paint It Forward is an initiative by Frasers Property Singapore, which will contribute $10 to the Goh Chok Tong Enable Fund for each participant. The fund provides financial assistance and supports the aspirations of persons with disabilities.

Ten malls managed by Frasers Property are taking turns to host the event until June 25.

The event pre-registration is full, but you can sign up on the spot. Participation is free and open to kids from as young as two years old. Those under 12 must be accompanied by an adult.

The artworks produced through Paint It Forward will be combined and displayed as a collage at Northpoint City mall from June 21 to 25.
