The best kid-friendly things to do during the June school holidays

There’s a whole lotta ‘ohana love at Gardens by the Bay, as it gets a cheeky intergalactic makeover for Asia Pacific’s first-ever Disney’s Stitch-themed Children’s Festival – just as its live-action version hits screens. Get ready for a space-meets-island crossover, bursting with immersive installations, creative workshops, carnival games, meet-and-greet sessions, stage performances, and exclusive Stitch goodies you’ll absolutely want to take home. Did we also mention the special edition of Garden Rhapsody? Watch the Supertrees light up to familiar tunes like ‘Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride’ and other nostalgic earworms inspired by the movie. Find out more here.

Step into ACM & Me, Asian Civilisations Museum’s brand-new play-meets-art space designed for kids to explore who they are, what stories they tell, and how they express themselves – all through art, music, play, and a sprinkle of museum magic across three fun-filled zones. With padded floors for crawlers, mirrored play areas, storytelling stations, oversized blocks, and even a Calm Corner for sensory breaks, this thoughtfully curated experience is inclusive, vibrant, and packed with hands-on discovery. While you’re at it, check out the various programmes held as part of this year’s Children’s Season, including interactive performances and craft activities from May 31.
