Singapore’s birthday is coming up and everyone is gearing up to celebrate this special day. This includes the National Museum, which will be offering lots of exciting activities – from outdoor inflatable playgrounds featuring iconic local HDB playground designs and drop-in craft activities to intergenerational programmes and a scavenger hunt.
Check out the light installation The Good Old Games; A Light-Up Installation for a nostalgic photo taking session where you’ll get to snap a picture with life-sized old-school games such as chapteh, five stones and country flag erasers. Learn more about Singapore’s history at the National Day scavenger hunt as you search for answers around the museum. Those who have completed it will stand a chance to redeem a token from the museum, while stocks last. There will also be hands-on workshops where you’ll get to craft a letter to a loved one, put together your very own traditional round fan, and design a keychain with an interesting paint-pouring technique.
For the young ones, head to Outdoor Sustainable Play, where they can engage in imaginative play, or bounce away at the inflatable playgrounds featuring colourful castles.
And that’s not all: watch the National Day parade live from the National Museum while having a picnic under the stars, enjoy drum performances on the lawn, and share your thoughts on Singapore at the museum’s LED wall with Writings On The Wall.
