Families For Life | Top 5 Indoor Spots to Bond with Your Grands

Planning a special day with your grands? Don’t let the extreme heat or the rain ruin your plans! These indoor entertainment spots are the perfect air-conditioned getaways to spend quality time with your loved ones.

As you’re walking through the aquarium or strolling down memory lane at the museum, you can take the opportunity to get to know Grandma and Grandpa better too!

Visit the Flower Dome at Gardens by the Bay

Eager for a nature walk but unwilling to bear the heat? Take your grandparents for a stroll in the temperature-controlled Flower Dome at Gardens by the Bay! This 1-hour trail, blooming with plant life from around the world, is sure to be a hit with any grandparent with a green thumb. Don’t forget to seize insta-worthy photo ops to add to the photo frames at home!

Learn History at the National Museum

Educational and entertaining, a visit to Singapore’s oldest museum might just be the thing for your grandparents and the kids! With guided tours in various languages and special programmes for children, the National Museum is a prime visiting spot for the family.

As you walk through the galleries and explore Singapore’s 700-year development, why not ask Grandma and Grandpa about their past? With their whole life’s experience behind them, you’re bound to learn something new. Maybe you’ll hear a story of how they met!

Enjoy High Tea at a Hotel

It’s not every day you get to be fancy. Take the chance to splurge on a treat for your grandparents and take them out for tea at one of Singapore’s international hotels. It’s a good way to slow down and have a chat with everyone, especially if the family’s been busy.

The relaxing atmosphere might even prompt Grandma and Grandpa to tell some fun family stories, or you and the kids can get the conversation going with some questions about their lives!

Watch the Fish at the S.E.A Aquarium

There’s no better way to escape the sun than an immersive learning journey “underwater”. Home to about 100,000 aquatic creatures, the aquarium offers reprieve from the tropical heat as you come face to face with some of the ocean’s most interesting creatures! The aquarium also has wheelchairs available for a stress-free trip with your grandparents. Don’t forget to catch the feeding sessions!

Go Shopping at Changi Jewel

Spoiled for choice and can’t decide where to go? You can’t go wrong with a shopping spree at Jewel. With plenty of dining options, attractions, and retail spots, there’s enough entertainment to satisfy every member of the family. 

In the evening, take the chance to sit by Jewel’s Rain Vortex for a relaxing way to round out the day with loved ones.

Singapore might be small but there’s still plenty to do with your grandparents! However, don’t forget that spending quality time with your grandparents isn’t just about the family outings. You can still spend meaningful time with your loved ones in the comfort of your home.
