If you have a whole day to spend with your kids, and are trying to squeeze in as many sights of Singapore as humanly possible, then Resorts World Sentosa is a great choice – you can easily spend three days to fully enjoy all there is to experience. But if you have just 12 hours, read on to find out just how you can maximize your precious day with your kids.
The Resort’s car park can be a labyrinth. If it’s your first time traversing its vastness, it might feel a little overwhelming; sometimes, even third time’s not the charm. We’re pretty confused ourselves, so we went scouting (on foot) around the car park and dug up some pointers that might help unravel the mystery of the labyrinth.
When it comes to something to nibble on, you can likely find what you want here at the Resort. But what about snacks that cost less than $10? Sweet or savoury, you have none to worry; we’ve sussed out the best bargains for a great snack break.
You can almost say that finding a spot to lim kopi (or ‘drink coffee’ in an amalgamation of Hokkien and Malay) is a pastime of most Singaporeans. Best savoured in at least groups of two or more, it can be a nice solitary event as well if you’re feeling pensive. We dug out spots where you can nurse a cup or two.
When Jurassic Park stormed the theatres back in 1993, long dead interest in these behemoth lizards was revived. The movie’s success spawned two movie sequels, sleepless nights, and left legacies worldwide. One of which is its own Lost World zone in Universal theme parks worldwide. To commemorate 20 years of the movie, bring your kids to hunt some dinosaurs – by first raiding the two merchandise shops at The Lost World at Universal Studios Singapore®.

You might have seen them around Universal Studios Singapore®– people clad in black, wielding walkie-talkies, stopping you from swarming up next to Woody Woodpecker and Marilyn Monroe. Just who are they?
Introducing the Star Guides – people who protect their character charges, keep overzealous fans at bay, and keep a close watch on schedules, like a manager, butler and personal bodyguard all rolled into one. And before you think they’re an unfriendly lot, they’re not.
Their work sounds easy enough. All they do is keep tabs on the characters, right? But when I was invited for a backstage sneak peek of their typical workday, I realized that it is far more challenging than I initially thought. I met up with JR, the In-Charge for Madagascar (one of the park’s seven zones), who brought me into their “greenroom” – a backstage area for performers and escorts.
