A balloon party, craft sessions, baking workshops and street art: it's all going on at Tiong Bahru Children's Trail!
Head over to Yong Siak Street on 16 July 2017 for a special event in Tiong Bahru for kids: The Children’s Street Trail! We can’t wait to see this already cool neighbourhood come to life for children age three to 12 years, with a fun and wondrous trail of activities. Expect heaps of craft projects, hidden treasures and animals, storytelling events, competitions, face painting, brownie baking and a balloon party – just for starters! The first 60 kids collecting four or more stamps from the various activity pods along the trail will snag a gorgeous goodie bag too. Dive in for our mini-guide to all the fun happening along the Children’s Street Trail…
Plain Vanilla Bakery
We never need much of an excuse to visit one of our fave cupcake shops in Singapore, and we’ve got even more reason to head to Plain Vanilla thanks to Children’s Street Trail! Plain Vanilla has been running lovely monthly gatherings as part of its Picnic Days series – which we can all join in with until 8 October. On Children’s Street Trail Weekend, expect extra special fun for kids including sticker giveaways, a DIY cookie decorating station, retro games and a brownie baking workshop!
Details: Brownie baking workshop will run at 10am, 11.30am, 1pm, 2.30pm and 4pm; www.plainvanillabakery.com
Woods in the Books
We had SO much fun taking part in last year’s BFG Dream Jar Competition at Woods in the Books, so can’t wait to get involved with The BIG Questions for LITTLE PEOPLE Contest running on Children’s Street Trail day. There’ll also be tons of arty fun to be had in the Little Treehugger’s Crafty Corner.
