Kidzranger Tour


If you have children aged between 5 and 12 years old who love animals, this hands-on programme is an excellent experience.  Our Kidzranger Tour turns children into zookeepers for a stint. They’ll get their own Kidzranger vest, and a pin-on button that gives them special access to areas in the Rainforest Kidzworld that are otherwise only open to our zookeepers. It’s a fun-filled and educational experience that is sure to bring out the sparkle in every child’s eyes.

Tour highlights:
  •     Mingle with the horses, ponies and falabellas and learn how to tell them apart.
  •     Find out about the animals’ quirky habits that may surprise you.
  •     Try your hand at grooming a falabella and rabbit.
  •     Feed our hungry goats.
  •     Experience what it’s like to be a zookeeper.
  •     Learn what it takes to be a responsible pet owner.

CELEBRATE CHILDREN’S DAY WITH INUKA THE POLAR BEAR

Chill out in Singapore Zoo’s Frozen Tundra with the little ones this Children’s Day and enjoy a frosty fun time with a lineup of educational activities about polar bears. Pique your child’s curiosity about polar bears – the largest land predator in the world – in our ‘Snow’ & Tell session, and see the children go wild on a great seal hunt. To end off on a warm and fuzzy note, work on a beautiful ‘Happy Children’s Day’ card together for Inuka the polar bear!
