Ting Ting Time Capsule : Avatars & Cloud Babies @ Ion + Police Heritage Centre

Avatars & Cloud Babies @ Ion

We went to Ion for the Avatars & Cloud babies drawing event last week. What they did was to draw a big cloud in the middle of a big piece of paper and wrote a theme on it for example "sushi". So the kids need to exercise their creativity by drawing their own version of sushi on it.

It was quite fun for our gal as she loves to draw and colour with markers pen. But well at her age, what she did was scribbling and colouring all over the place lolx!

As adult I felt a bit boring, but I think my gal was thrilled with all the drawing and scribbling. It was a short event, we stayed for about 45mins and make our way to the next event ~ "I want to be a Policeman!" tour at the Police Heritage Centre.

Ting Ting scribbles!

Her master piece haha

I want to be a Police! @ Police Heritage Centre

I registered for the tour by calling and emailing to the Police Heritage Centre @ SPF_Police_Heritage@spf.gov.sg a few days before. It was quite an easy process. The Police Heritage Centre is located at Novena, opposite the Ren Ci Community hospital. It took us about 10mins walk from Novena MRT.

As we went on a weekday, so there was only less than 10 kids which was quite a manageable group I think. A Police officer briefed and brought us to tour around the Police Museum area. We could only took photos at selected location inside the Museum.

It was an interesting tour as the police officer explained to us the history of police force in Singapore. It also showed the different uniforms which our police wore through the years. And yes, last time the police wore shorts! I think wearing shorts was so much cooler because of our hot and humid weather.

Because it was a tour for the Children, so the tour duration was a short 20-30mins. After that we were brought inside a meeting room where the kids can wear the little police uniform and took photos! It was the most fun experience to dress up our kids with police uniform I think. All parents and children were so excited during the dressing up activity.

My gal loved her police uniform so much that she refused to remove it! It was a very fun activity and I think it helps to expose our kids to understand what is police and why we need police to keep our society in order. Highly recommended event for kids!
