About Our Parenting World - OPW Media : Our Parenting World is founded by a Daddy and Mummy team with two boys. Daddy Victor works in the medical sector and Mummy Virginia works in the education sector. Together they wrote Singapore’s first ever book reviewing the healthcare system in detail. The book, “Picking the Right Hospital Right Doctor in Singapore,” has been a huge success and the book is sold out. This book is the result of two years of in-depth research into the healthcare system of Singapore, educating reader on key medical issues; such as the difference between subsidized and unsubsidized medical services, getting a subsidized letter to see a specialist in a government hospital, how to compare different hospital services and costs, and what to look for when choosing a hospital or doctor for you and your family. We believe these are important issues to be concerned with as a parent, and we seek to provide information that is clear and easy to understand so you can best educate yourself. We would like to hear from YOU! Connect with us via our contact page or Facebook to share your parenting stories, tips, advices, and ideas. It takes a village to raise a child, so we can all benefit from sharing ideas on anything and everything we encounter as parents. Sometimes parents get so overwhelmed, and rightfully so. It’s important to take a step back and remember that other people are going through the same things, and they may be able to offer you some advice. Come and join us on our parenting and lifestyle journey, and connect with us so we can build a community of parenting professionals, filled with information, advice, and laughs!

In addition to the 2011 Constructor’s and Driver’s winning Red Bull RB7, and the 2003 BAR Honda 005 announced previously, visitors will be able to view some of the most legendary and memorable cars in the history of Formula 1. Williams FW15C Regarded as one of the most advanced Formula 1 cars ever built, the FW15C dominated the 1993 season, securing both Drivers’ and Constructors’ Championships with Alain Prost and Damon Hill behind the wheel. Designed by Adrian Newey and Patrick Head, it combined exceptional aerodynamics with pioneering electronic systems, including active suspension and traction control. The FW15C represented the peak of Formula 1’s electronic age and remains one of the sport’s most iconic examples of engineering excellence. Lotus E21 The Lotus E21, introduced for the 2013 Formula 1 season, represents a pivotal moment in the team’s modern era. The car combined aerodynamic efficiency, V8 power and race-winning pace, enabling strong performance across diverse circuits, including Kimi Räikkönen’s victory at the Australian Grand Prix and a podium finish at the Singapore Grand Prix. It remains a standout example of Lotus engineering excellence today. Red Bull RB7 The Red Bull RB7 is the car that defined a dynasty. Designed by Adrian Newey and powered by the Renault RS27 V8, it combined aerodynamic brilliance with perfect balance and control. In 2011, Sebastian Vettel dominated the season, winning eleven Grands Prix, including the Singapore Grand Prix, and secured his second consecutive Drivers’ Championship. Together with teammate Mark Webber, Red Bull Racing also claimed its second Constructors’ title, cementing its reputation as the new benchmark in Formula 1 performance. BAR Honda 005 The BAR Honda 005 marks a crucial chapter in Honda’s modern Formula 1 journey. Designed by Geoff Willis, and with Jenson Button and Jacques Villeneuve at the wheel, the 005 showcased impressive aerodynamic refinement and mechanical evolution. Jenson Button scored the team’s highest finish with a fourth place in Austria and the team finished fifth in the Constructor’s Championship. Powered by Honda’s high-revving RA003E V10 engine, the 005 laid the technical foundations for the BAR Honda 006 and ultimately Honda’s own works team success in the years that followed. It stands as a testament to persistence, development, and the continuous pursuit of speed — qualities at the heart of Formula 1’s relentless innovation. Singapore will become the eleventh city and the first in Asia to host the globally acclaimed exhibition. Located at the iconic Gardens by the Bay, next to Satay by the Bay and just a few steps from Gardens by the Bay MRT, the immersive show will take fans on an extraordinary journey through the captivating world of Formula 1® - celebrating its 76-year history through cutting-edge design, storytelling and technology, and exploring its rich past, thrilling present and exciting future.

Returning this July with its biggest and most immersive edition yet, Glow Festival 2026 promises an exciting celebration of wellness, movement, mindfulness, creativity, music and community. From world-class wellness experiences and inspiring speakers to live entertainment and family-friendly activities, the festival aims to redefine how people experience wellbeing in today's fast-paced world. Behind the festival is Martin Capstick, Founder of Glow Festival by Prudential and Co-Founder of Exceed Sports & Entertainment, who has spent more than three decades shaping sports, lifestyle, health and wellness events across Asia. Driven by a vision to make wellness more accessible, inclusive and relevant to everyday life, Martin has played a key role in redefining how people experience wellbeing in Singapore and beyond. Ahead of Glow Festival 2026, we spoke with Martin about the inspiration behind Glow Festival, the evolution of wellness, Singapore's growing position as a wellness destination and what visitors can look forward to at this year's edition. Interview with Martin Capstick, Founder of Glow Festival by Prudential 1. Glow Festival has come a long way since its debut in 2019. Looking back, what inspired you to create Glow Festival, and what has been the most rewarding part of seeing it grow over the years? Martin Capstick: From the very beginning, my ambition was to build a large-scale, joyous festival experience that brings people together and makes wellness more inclusive, accessible, inspiring and relevant to everyday life. When Glow Festival launched in 2019, people were already becoming more conscious about their health and wellbeing. Since then, particularly in the years following the pandemic, we've seen wellness evolve dramatically. Today, it's no longer defined solely by fitness or healthy eating. People are placing greater emphasis on mental wellbeing, recovery, creativity, meaningful experiences and genuine human connection. That shift has reinforced the vision we had for Glow from the very beginning, to create a festival that reflects the many different ways people experience wellness. Watching Glow Festival grow from a one-day event into a multi-day festival that brings together movement, mindfulness, creativity, music and community has been incredibly rewarding. Seeing families, friends and individuals come together to discover wellness in their own way reminds us why we started this journey. 2. Glow Festival 2026 is being described as the biggest and most immersive edition yet. What excites you the most about this year's festival, and what makes it stand out from previous editions? Martin Capstick: This year we're bringing together over 70 wellness sessions across eight immersive festival zones, alongside our strong music lineup with headliners including Jason Derulo, HYUKOH and Alessia Cara. The programme has been intentionally designed to be accessible to everyone, whether you're deeply immersed in wellness or simply looking to explore something new. More importantly, we've created a true day-to-night experience. Families and attendees can start their morning with yoga overlooking the sea, attend recovery and mindfulness sessions throughout the day, enjoy incredible food and community experiences, and end the evening with world-class live music. It reflects the way people increasingly approach wellness, as something holistic, social and integrated into everyday life. The beauty of Glow is that there are no fixed ways to experience it, you can move, create, learn, relax and connect all at your own pace, within a welcoming festival environment. 3. This year marks the beginning of a new three-year partnership with Sentosa Development Corporation, Singapore Tourism Board and Prudential. How important is this collaboration in helping you realise your long-term vision for Glow Festival? Martin Capstick: This partnership marks an important milestone for Glow Festival because it enables us to think beyond delivering an annual event and focus on building a long-term platform that can contribute meaningfully to Singapore's wellness ecosystem. Together with Prudential, Sentosa Development Corporation and the Singapore Tourism Board, we share a common ambition of establishing Glow as a globally recognised wellness festival born and bred in Singapore. Their support allows us to strengthen our programming, attract leading international talent, deepen community engagement and continue creating distinctive experiences for both local and international audiences. Just as importantly, this three-year collaboration provides the continuity to grow thoughtfully and sustainably. It gives us the opportunity to continually evolve the festival, strengthen Singapore's position as a wellness destination, and create lasting value for the communities we serve. We see this as the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Glow Festival, and we're looking forward to what we can achieve together over the coming years. 4. Wellness means different things to different people. How do you ensure Glow Festival remains inclusive and accessible for people of all ages, fitness levels and backgrounds while creating an experience that everyone can enjoy? Martin Capstick: Inclusivity has always been one of our core principles. Wellness isn't one size fits all, and we recognise that everyone starts from a different place. We've always been intentional about making Glow inclusive regardless of age or experience level. This year, we've expanded Glow across eight festival zones, each offering a different way to experience wellness and allowing every visitor to curate their own wellness journey based on what they need most at that moment. Whether they're looking to move, recover, create, connect or simply unwind, there's something for everyone. Glow Miles: Visitors can start their day with music-powered beach runs along Sentosa's coastline, accompanied by a roaming DJ to keep the energy high. Flow Studio: Dedicated movement space that will host a diverse lineup of classes throughout the festival, including yoga, pilates, barre, mobility training and functional fitness sessions. Mind Oasis: A calming sanctuary focused on mental wellbeing, featuring guided meditation, breathwork and mindfulness sessions, alongside intimate conversations on topics such as stress management, sleep optimisation and sustainable wellbeing. Recharge Bay: A recovery space where attendees can cool down, hydrate and reset through experiences such as saunas, cold plunges, TCM-inspired... --- - Published: 2026-07-08 - Modified: 2026-07-08 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/where-two-japanese-culinary-masters-meet-chef-yuko-furuya-x-chef-teruya-noriyoshi/ - Categories: DINING - Tags: Chef Teruya Noriyoshi, Chef Yuko Furuya, Keyaki, Pan Pacific Singapore Pan Pacific Singapore’s award-winning Japanese restaurant, Keyaki, will host an exclusive four-hand dinner experience with renowned chef owner of Kenrantei, Chef Yuko Furuya, on 20 and 21 August 2026. Acclaimed for her refined approach to elevated home-style Japanese cuisine, Chef Yuko helms Kenrantei, a by-appointment-only private dining restaurant in Kobe that serves just one group of diners per day. In collaboration with Keyaki’s Executive Japanese Chef Teruya Noriyoshi, the Chefs present an eight-course menu that brings together their distinct culinary philosophies and signature creations, priced at $300++ per person. About Chef Yuko Furuya Hailing from Kobe, Japan, Chef Yuko Furuya was born into a family of chefs who hold home-style Japanese cuisine in the highest regard. She developed her culinary foundation under the guidance of her mother, Chef Satoko Furuya, the esteemed former chef owner of Kenrantei. As Chef Yuko went on to establish herself as an accomplished Japanese chef in her own right, she began teaching culinary classes alongside her mother at Salon de Satoko and Yuko, sharing simple, yet refined Japanese recipes designed to be recreated at home. In 2015, she assumed ownership of Kenrantei, and has since continued to share her mother’s signature culinary philosophy with business executives and discerning gastronomes alike. A hallmark of the Kenrantei experience is Chef Yuko’s artisanal, small-batch condiments, crafted without preservatives or additives, including the restaurant’s ponzu sauce and its signature umami-rich taretsuyu soya sauce. Beyond Japan, Chef Yuko has brought her refined approach to Japanese home-style cuisine to luxury hotels and dining destinations around the world through a series of collaborations and pop-up experiences. About Chef Teruya Noriyoshi Chef Teruya Noriyoshi hails from Tokyo, Japan. He began his culinary career in Oregon, USA, in 1995, before honing his craft in New York, San Diego, Italy, London, Australia, Singapore, and even aboard the Crystal Serenity cruise ship that took him around the world. He has had the privilege of working alongside renowned chefs, including Chef Masaharu Morimoto at NOBU New York and Chef Antonio D’Angelo at NOBU Milan. The years spent across continents and cultures have given Chef Teruya a broadened culinary perspective, one that finds expression in dishes where global influences are present, yet always guided by the essence of Japanese cuisine. Chef Teruya’s philosophy is rooted in seasonality, precision, and an aesthetic that reflects nature. Each dish is composed with intention, not only in flavour, but also in form, resulting in plates that are as visually evocative as they are technically refined. His menu at Keyaki illustrates this balance of tradition and creativity. Classic techniques are preserved, yet gently shaped by global influences, whether in subtle flavour pairings or inventive interpretations. The result is a dining experience that feels both authentic and contemporary. The Eight-course Menu Wagyu Beef Sirloin Shabu-shabu By Chef Yuko Furuya At Kenrantei, every dining experience begins with Chef Yuko’s signature shabu-shabu. Inspired by the spirit of Kobe, this dish sets the tone of the meal with refined simplicity. The wagyu beef sirloin is sliced to precise thickness and gently cooked at carefully controlled temperature to preserve its delicate texture and richness. It is served with the chef’s house-made ponzu. Kuruma-ebi Mille-feuille with Uni and Wasabi in Olive Oil, Duck Loin in Jigarashi Sauce, and Japanese Pumpkin Tofu By Chef Yuko Furuya A reflection of Kobe’s proximity to the sea, the Kuruma-ebi Mille-feuille layers sweet prawn with rich sea urchin, and complemented by wasabi and olive oil. The Duck Loin in Jigarashi Sauce is inspired by the pursuit of the perfect duck soba experience, and has evolved into one of Chef Yuko’s signature dishes. The Japanese Pumpkin Tofu combines naturally sweet pumpkin with bonito dashi for a gentle, comforting flavour. Hokkaido Specialities: Kegani, Ezo-awabi, and Ikura, with Umami Jelly and Yuzu Zest By Chef Teruya Noriyoshi A vibrant expression of Hokkaido’s seasonal bounty, this dish features hairy crab, abalone, and salmon roe, delicately balanced with umami jelly and yuzu zest. “The dish is meant to be experienced through sight, aroma, and taste, reflecting the essence of summer,” says Chef Teruya. Seasonal Japanese Fish Sashimi A Selection of Seasonal Sashimi by Keyaki A selection of seasonal sashimi flown in from Japan, with each cut reflecting the finest and freshest seasonal offerings available at Keyaki, highlighting purity, texture, and the essence of traditional Japanese craftsmanship. King Crab Tempura with Homemade Tomato Chilli Salsa By Chef Teruya Noriyoshi A creative reinterpretation of Singapore’s iconic chilli crab, Chef Teruya presents king crab in a light, crisp tempura coating. Paired with a vibrant homemade tomato chilli salsa, the dish balances sweetness, spice, and umami. Japanese Roasted Wagyu Beef with Fresh Wasabi By Chef Yuko Furuya Slow-roasted over low heat, this dish is infused with the natural sweetness of Awaji onions and the depth of bonito dashi. Finished with fresh wasabi, it delivers a clean, yet layered profile, and pairs beautifully with sake, wine, or whisky. Hokkaido Corn Takikomi-gohan with Uni and Sakura-ebi, in Bamboo, accompanied by Hamaguri Shiro Miso Soup with Kona-zansho By Chef Yuko Furuya and Chef Teruya Noriyoshi This dish marries sweet Hokkaido corn with rich sea urchin, and ties the flavours together with fried Sakura shrimp. Chef Yuko and Chef Teruya share, “We’ve captured all the feelings of summer in Japan with this dish”. The accompanying hamaguri shiro soup is reimagined with white miso for added depth and finished with freshly ground sansho pepper for a subtle aromatic lift. Shizuoka Muskmelon and Shio Choux Rusk Signature Dessert by Keyaki A refreshing seasonal dessert showcasing premium Shizuoka muskmelon, known for its fragrance and natural sweetness. Paired with a delicate shio choux rusk, it offers a crisp textural contrast and an elegant finish to the dining experience. Chef Yuko Furuya X Chef Teruya Noriyoshi Exclusive Four-hand Experience at Keyaki 20 and 21 August 2026 Dinner | 6:00pm – 10:30pm $300++ per person Price quoted is in Singapore dollars, and is subject to service charge and prevailing government taxes.

The campaign comes at a time when sleep and stress continue to be major health concerns in Singapore. A 2024 YouGov survey found that 54% of Singaporeans get less than the recommended seven hours of sleep each night. Meanwhile, ManpowerGroup's Global Talent Barometer 2025 revealed that 53% of Singapore's workforce experiences moderate to high levels of daily stress. On top of that, a sleep quality study revealed that 27. 6% of Singapore residents report poor overall sleep quality. Sleep and stress concerns can stem from different lifestyle factors, routines and wellness needs, which means there is no one size fits all approach. While customers may be familiar with ingredients such as Melatonin or Magnesium, these may not be suitable for every individual or every type of sleep or stress concern. Through this campaign, Unity brings together over 100 sleep and stress management solutions across Eastern and Western approaches, supported by dedicated in store bays and pharmacist guidance. The initiative is designed to help customers better navigate available options, compare solutions across various brands and make more informed decisions based on their individual needs. Pharmacist-Led Guidance for More Personalised Support Beyond offering a wide range of sleep and stress management products, Unity pharmacists are available to provide Wellness Check-In consultations (Appendix A) to help customers make more informed choices based on their individual needs, lifestyle and concerns. As sleep and stress issues can be influenced by different factors, Unity pharmacists can guide customers through tailored options and explain the differences between commonly used ingredients. These include Melatonin, Magnesium Bisglycinate, Chamomile and Rescue® Flower Essence blend for sleep support, as well as Ashwagandha, L-theanine and B-Complexes for stress support. Drawing on their professional knowledge, Unity pharmacists can also provide practical self-care advice and help customers better understand factors that may be affecting their sleep or stress levels. Where appropriate, they can advise when further medical assessment may be needed, giving customers greater confidence to choose suitable solutions from the broad range of brands and wellness options available at Unity. "Sleep and stress are deeply interconnected and can have a significant impact on overall health and quality of life. Through this educational campaign, we want to make every day a little better for Singaporeans by providing them with greater access to the curated solutions and trusted guidance they need to make informed decisions about their well-being," said Pauline Png, General Manager, Unity. Making Better Sleep & Stress Relief More Accessible As part of the campaign, Unity is offering up to 30% off selected sleep and stress management products across all stores islandwide from 2 to 29 July 2026. The campaign reflects Unity’s ongoing commitment to making health and wellness support more accessible to Singaporeans, with trusted guidance and practical solutions available across its pharmacy network.

"For many of us, Canada Day is a moment to reflect on what makes this country truly special: its warmth, hospitality, and diversity," said Kiyo Weiss, Senior Director of Sales for Asia-Pacific at Air Canada. "Since launching our non-stop Singapore–Vancouver service, we have seen first-hand how Singapore travellers are evolving, seeking deeper, more meaningful experiences. Air Canada is proud to play a role in making Canada and the wider North American continent more accessible than ever for travellers from Singapore and across the region. " Air Canada also unveiled its new Glowing Hearted long-haul cabin designs that will debut on new Airbus A321XLR and Boeing 787-10 aircrafts, representing its most significant cabin investment to date. The first major expression of its new Glowing Hearted standard, the design delivers a distinctly Canadian experience, emphasising comfort, care, and connection for all customers on every flight, while signalling the airline’s bold growth ambitions. Vancouver: A Global City in the Spotlight and Destination for Every Kind of Traveller With Vancouver in the global spotlight this year, the city continues to captivate travellers from across the globe including Singapore with its appealing combination of global events, vibrant family experiences, rejuvenating wellness offerings and culinary excellence, offering something truly special for every kind of traveller. According to Skyscanner's Travel Trends 2026 report, 90% of Singaporeans plan to travel the same amount or more in 2026, and increasingly seek purposeful, experience-led journeys. The city is well-positioned to meet this growing appetite. "Vancouver is a city that captivates in every season, whether you come for its world-class culinary scene, its breathtaking natural landscapes and wellness offerings, or its family-friendly diverse activities and attractions,” said Victoria Leader, Market Manager, International at Destination Vancouver. "As Canada's premier gateway city and a longstanding partner to Air Canada, we are proud to continue deepening our connections with Singapore, one of Asia's most discerning travel markets, and look forward to welcoming more visitors to experience everything Vancouver has to offer across every season. " For those seeking wellness and rejuvenation, Vancouver is a living laboratory for holistic health, offering forest bathing and yoga at different locations across the city. For foodies, Vancouver has quietly become one of the world's great culinary cities, from the vibrant Gastown food scene and craft brew experiences to Michelin-starred dining anchored by celebrated chefs such as David Hawksworth, who also curates Air Canada's award-winning in-flight menu. For families, Vancouver is a safe, active and endlessly entertaining destination in all seasons. From the Vancouver Aquarium and Science World to the magical festive traditions of the Peak of Christmas at Grouse Mountain and Canyon Lights at Capilano Suspension Bridge Park, the city offers multi-generational experiences that create lasting memories for the whole family.

Between demanding careers, caring for children, managing household responsibilities and juggling countless daily commitments, finding time for personal care often becomes a challenge. While self-care is widely recognised as an important part of maintaining both physical and emotional well-being, setting aside time to travel to a beauty salon can sometimes feel like another task on an already full schedule. As lifestyles continue to evolve, consumers are increasingly looking for services that fit seamlessly into their daily routines. Convenience, flexibility and personalised experiences have become important considerations, particularly for those balancing busy work and family lives. Recognising this growing demand, Perky Lash has introduced an islandwide house-visit service that brings selected professional lash and nail treatments directly to customers at their homes or offices. The initiative offers clients greater flexibility while maintaining the professional standards, hygiene and personalised care that the brand is known for. Founded by Jasmin Tay, Perky Lash has built its reputation around a strict no-package and no hard-selling policy, providing customers with a transparent and comfortable beauty experience. The brand also says it is Singapore's first lash salon to develop its own in-house biodegradable lashes, designed to naturally break down within 180 days as part of its commitment to sustainability. Rather than replacing the traditional salon experience, the home-visit service provides an additional option for customers whose schedules may not always allow time to travel. Whether it is a busy professional working from home, someone looking to fit a beauty appointment between meetings, or a parent caring for young children, the service offers greater convenience without compromising on quality. Trinity Bio Lash and Blossom Plus Lash by Perky Lash The house-visit service will offer a curated range of Perky Lash’s signature treatments, including: Lash Services: Classic Nude ($158) UltraLite ($178) Bio Lash ($188) Collagen Lash Lift with Keratin Tint ($128) Polkadots Nail Arts and Ombre Nail Arts by Perky Lash Nail Services: Classic Gel Manicure ($128) Classic Gel Pedicure ($138) Gel Extensions ($178, full set) With more Singaporeans placing greater emphasis on well-being while navigating increasingly demanding lifestyles, accessible beauty services are becoming more relevant than ever. The ability to receive professional treatments in a familiar environment allows customers to enjoy quality self-care while making better use of their valuable time. To gain deeper insights into the evolving beauty landscape, we spoke with Jasmin Tay, Founder of Perky Lash, about the growing demand for at-home beauty services, changing consumer expectations, balancing entrepreneurship with motherhood, sustainability, and how convenience is shaping the future of beauty. Interview with Jasmin Tay, Founder of Perky Lash 1. Perky Lash recently launched an islandwide house-visit service for lash and nail treatments. What inspired this move, and what consumer trends are you seeing that suggest there is growing demand for at-home beauty services in Singapore? Jasmin Tay: As a founder and a mother myself, the inspiration came from observing how much the lives of women have changed. Many of our customers are juggling careers, children, ageing parents and household responsibilities, and finding two to three hours to travel to a salon has become increasingly difficult. We asked ourselves a simple question: Why should self-care be another thing women have to sacrifice? We're also seeing a broader shift in consumer expectations. People today increasingly value services that fit around their schedules instead of requiring them to plan their day around appointments. Whether it's working from home, the growth of on-demand services, or simply wanting more time with family, consumers are placing a premium on convenience and personalised experiences. The beauty industry is evolving in the same direction, with increasing demand for home-based and mobile beauty services alongside traditional salons. 2. Many Singaporeans today are juggling demanding careers, family responsibilities, and increasingly packed schedules. How have customer expectations evolved over the years when it comes to beauty and self-care services? Jasmin Tay: Over the years, we've seen a significant shift in what customers value. In the past, beauty services were often viewed as an occasional indulgence. Today, they're increasingly seen as part of a regular self-care routine that supports confidence and overall well-being. At the same time, customers are busier than ever, so they're looking for experiences that are not only high quality but also convenient, reliable and respectful of their time. We also find that customers today are much more informed. They do their research, read reviews, compare service standards and ask more questions about hygiene, product quality and the beauty professionals experience. They're no longer just choosing the cheapest option—they're choosing brands they can trust to deliver consistent results safely and transparently. At Perky Lash, these changing expectations have reinforced our belief that beauty should be both accessible and stress-free. Whether a customer visits one of our salons or chooses our home-visit service, our goal is to provide the same professional standards, consistent quality and personalised care. We believe self-care shouldn't feel like another chore—it should be something that restores confidence and gives women back a little time for themselves. 3. Hybrid work arrangements have become increasingly common in recent years. How has this shift influenced the way consumers approach beauty appointments, and how is Perky Lash adapting to these changing needs? Jasmin Tay: Hybrid work has fundamentally changed how many people manage their time. Instead of commuting to the office every day, many now have greater flexibility in their schedules. At the same time, the boundaries between work and personal life have become more blurred, so people are looking for ways to fit self-care into their day without sacrificing productivity or family time. We've noticed that customers are becoming much more intentional about how they spend their time. Rather than setting aside half a day to travel to a salon, they're looking for solutions that are efficient and fit naturally into their routines. Some book appointments during a lunch break while working from home or office, between meetings, after... --- - Published: 2026-06-29 - Modified: 2026-06-29 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/elihe-laboratories-a-singapore-brand-transforming-hair-care-with-plant-exosome-innovation/ - Categories: STYLE/BEAUTY - Tags: AmpliHair Bioscience Duo, AmpliHair Hair Growth Ampoule, AmpliHair Hair Loss Shampoo, elihe Laboratories, Exosome hair care, Hair care Discover a science-backed, drug-free scalp care routine designed specifically for Singapore's tropical climate Hair thinning and excessive hair fall are concerns that affect many people at different stages of life. Whether caused by stress, hormonal changes, postpartum recovery, ageing or environmental factors, maintaining a healthy scalp has become increasingly important in supporting healthier-looking hair. While clinic-based treatments have become more widely available, they often require a significant financial commitment and repeated visits, prompting many consumers to look for effective alternatives that can be incorporated into their everyday routine. Offering a fresh perspective is elihe Laboratories, a Singapore brand built on regenerative science and clean, drug-free formulation. Developed by a Singapore-based research team and formulated, manufactured and lab-tested locally, the brand has introduced a plant-powered scalp care routine specifically designed to meet the challenges of Singapore's hot, humid climate. By combining innovative phyto-exosome technology with carefully selected active ingredients, elihe Laboratories aims to make advanced scalp care more accessible for everyday consumers. One of the key factors that sets elihe Laboratories apart is its use of plant-derived phyto-exosomes. While many exosome-based hair treatments available today rely on animal-derived ingredients used primarily in clinical settings, elihe Laboratories harnesses phyto-exosomes extracted from clover, soybean and mung-bean sprouts. This provides a vegan, cruelty-free and non-GMO alternative that supports scalp health without relying on drugs, hormones or animal-derived ingredients. AmpliHair Hair Loss Shampoo A Complete Daily Routine, Not Just Another Hair Serum Many hair care brands focus on offering a single hair serum, but elihe Laboratories takes a more comprehensive approach by developing a complete two-step routine that is designed to work together. The AmpliHair Hair Loss Shampoo is more than just a cleanser. This sulphate-free, pH-balanced preparatory shampoo gently cleanses and primes the scalp before the application of the AmpliHair Hair Growth Ampoule, helping to create an ideal foundation for the next step in the routine. Gentle enough for daily use, it is also suitable for sensitive and colour-treated hair. The lightweight AmpliHair Hair Growth Ampoule is a leave-on formula that is applied directly onto a dry scalp in the morning and evening without rinsing. Combining plant-derived phyto-exosomes with biomimetic peptides, niacinamide, caffeine, biotin, folic acid, botanical extracts and a multi-form hyaluronic acid complex, the ampoule is formulated to support overall scalp health and healthier-looking hair. Perhaps one of the most appealing aspects of the routine is its simplicity. The complete two-step regimen takes less than 60 seconds each day, making it easy to incorporate into even the busiest lifestyle. By keeping the routine quick and convenient, elihe Laboratories encourages long-term consistency, recognising that regular daily care plays an important role in supporting overall scalp health. Another significant differentiator is that the entire routine is 100% drug-free, containing no minoxidil or finasteride. For individuals seeking a non-drug approach to scalp care, the formulations offer an alternative built around regenerative plant science rather than pharmaceutical ingredients. AmpliHair Hair Growth Ampoule Bringing Advanced Scalp Care Within Reach Professional exosome scalp treatments have attracted growing interest in recent years, but they often come at a considerable cost. Treatments at aesthetic clinics in Singapore can typically range between S$600 and S$900 per session, with multiple sessions commonly recommended. In comparison, elihe Laboratories offers its complete AmpliHair Bioscience Duo, comprising the AmpliHair Hair Loss Shampoo and AmpliHair Hair Growth Ampoule, for S$180 as a one-time purchase. This allows consumers to enjoy a complete daily scalp care routine at home without the need for repeated clinic appointments. The formulations have also been developed specifically with Singapore's environment in mind. Daily exposure to humidity, perspiration and urban pollution can affect overall scalp health, so elihe Laboratories incorporates anti-pollution scalp actives together with humidity-resilient delivery technology to better suit local conditions instead of simply adapting formulations originally created for overseas markets. The brand's commitment to quality extends beyond formulation. Developed, formulated, manufactured and lab-tested entirely in Singapore, the products reflect a local-first approach to innovation while addressing the unique needs of consumers living in a tropical climate. Backed by Clinical and Consumer Testing Beyond its innovative formulation, elihe Laboratories is supported by both clinical and consumer testing conducted over four months of continuous use. According to the company, participants experienced a 79% increase in hair density and a 52% reduction in hair loss after four months. The testing also reported a 214% increase in follicle length after just 10 days and a 72% reduction in scalp flaking. As with any hair care routine, individual results may vary, and the company has indicated that full methodology and data sheets are available to the media upon request. The formulations combine phyto-exosome technology with carefully selected scalp-supporting ingredients, including biomimetic peptides, niacinamide, caffeine, biotin, DHT-pathway botanicals such as saw palmetto and Polygonum multiflorum, together with a 9-form hyaluronic acid complex. The preparatory shampoo also contains ingredients including piroctone olamine to help purify the scalp, along with amino acids and botanical oils that support healthier-looking hair. Further reflecting its growing recognition, the AmpliHair Bioscience Duo was selected by Singapore Airlines SilverKris as a curated gift and recognised as the #1 Mums & Dads Pick, reinforcing the brand's appeal among families looking for a convenient, science-backed scalp care routine. Our Review: AmpliHair Hair Loss Shampoo & Hair Growth Ampoule After incorporating the AmpliHair Hair Loss Shampoo into our daily routine, one of the first things we noticed was how refreshing yet gentle it felt on the scalp. Unlike some shampoos that can leave the hair feeling dry or stripped after cleansing, this sulphate-free formula provided a comfortable, balanced cleanse while leaving our hair soft, smooth and easy to manage. Knowing that it also functions as a preparatory shampoo made us appreciate that it is designed to do more than simply cleanse—it prepares the scalp for the next step in the routine. The AmpliHair Hair Growth Ampoule was equally impressive in terms of its texture and ease of use. The lightweight leave-on formula absorbs quickly into the scalp without leaving any greasy or sticky residue, making it easy... --- - Published: 2026-06-29 - Modified: 2026-06-29 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/resorts-world-sentosa-launches-inaugural-rws-cares-festival-to-raise-2-million-for-singapore-charities/ - Categories: EVENTS - Tags: Resorts World Sentosa, RWS Cares Festival Resorts World Sentosa (RWS) is targeting to raise S$2 million in monetary and in-kind contributions, including a $700,000 fundraising target for the President’s Challenge, through its inaugural RWS Cares Festival, an annual community festival to promote social inclusion and environmental sustainability.

Whether it is a weekend at the park, a visit to the zoo, or an evening stroll, insect bites can quickly turn an enjoyable outing into an uncomfortable experience. Recognising this challenge, Bye Bye Bite has officially launched in Singapore, introducing a reusable, chemical-free insect bite relief device designed to help families manage the effects of insect bites and stings. Developed in Denmark and sold globally, the device uses controlled suction technology as an alternative approach to traditional creams, sprays and gels. The idea to bring Bye Bye Bite to Singapore began from a personal experience. Like many parents, Jonathan Knapp and his family spend a great deal of time outdoors and were looking for a practical way to deal with mosquito bites without relying solely on chemical-based products. After discovering the Danish invention through friends in Copenhagen and experiencing its benefits firsthand, they were surprised that the product remained relatively unknown in Singapore despite its global reach. Today, Bye Bye Bite aims to provide families with a simple, reusable solution that fits easily into everyday life, while also supporting greater awareness of mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue. To learn more about the inspiration behind Bye Bye Bite, the challenges families face when dealing with mosquito bites, and the company’s vision for Singapore, we spoke with Managing Director, Jonathan Knapp. In this interview, Jonathan shares how a personal family experience led to the launch of Bye Bye Bite in Singapore, explains how the device works, and discusses the importance of helping families enjoy the outdoors while remaining bite-aware. Interview with Managing Director, Jonathan Knapp 1. Can you tell us the story behind Bye Bye Bite and what inspired you to bring it to Singapore? Jonathan Knapp: Like many families in Singapore, we spend a lot of time outdoors. We live close to Sembawang Park, so weekends often involve heading there with the children, exploring local playgrounds or simply enjoying time outside together. And like many parents here, mosquito bites quickly became part of everyday family life. At the time, our interest was entirely personal. As a family living in Asia, we had been looking for a way to manage bites without constantly reaching for sprays, creams or chemicals. Six months ago, friends from Copenhagen introduced us to a simple Danish invention designed to relieve the effects of insect bites and stings. Created by a Danish husband-and-wife team, the concept was refreshingly straightforward: using just air to help remove the irritants left beneath the skin after a bite or sting. We tried it ourselves and were amazed at how well it worked! What surprised us even more was that despite more than 30 million units having been sold globally, very few people in Singapore had heard of it. We certainly hadn’t. But the more we learned, the more we realised this wasn’t really about itch relief alone. It was about helping families spend more time outdoors with confidence, while also encouraging greater awareness of mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue. That was the moment Bye Bye Bite began. 2. As parents yourselves, what challenges did you face when dealing with mosquito bites and insect stings at home? Jonathan Knapp: Anyone with young children knows that a mosquito bite can quickly become a much bigger issue than it seems. A perfect day out can be disrupted in an instant when one of the kids starts crying, scratching or complaining that a bite is itchy. Children naturally scratch—especially in the evening or at bedtime—which can lead to broken skin, discomfort and restless nights for the whole family. The reality is that bites happen. Even when you’re using repellents and taking sensible precautions, it’s impossible to avoid every mosquito. We wanted something simple that could help after a bite occurs—something that provides quick relief, fits easily into a backpack or stroller, and doesn’t involve adding yet another cream or product to our family routine. For us, it’s about helping families get back to enjoying the moment. 3. Why did you feel there was a need for an alternative to traditional creams, sprays and other bite relief products? Jonathan Knapp: Preventing bites will always be the first line of defence, especially in tropical countries like Singapore where dengue remains a concern. But prevention isn’t always perfect. Children still get bitten. We felt there was room for a practical, drug-free option that families could use after a bite occurs. Bye Bye Bite doesn’t rely on chemicals or creams and can be reused again and again as it doesn’t need refills. For many parents, simplicity matters. 4. How does Bye Bye Bite work, and what makes it different from conventional bite treatments? Jonathan Knapp: Bye Bye Bite uses gentle, precisely controlled suction to help remove some of the irritants left beneath the skin following an insect bite or sting. Instead of covering the affected area with creams or gels, the device works mechanically. While the concept is simple, there is significant science and engineering behind the design. The Danish-manufactured device has been carefully developed to deliver a consistent and precise level of suction that is both effective and easy to use. Bye Bye Bite is an HSA-notified Class A medical device in Singapore and is manufactured to stringent quality standards. It’s compact, reusable and easy to clean—simply rinse with water—making it a practical addition to a school bag, backpack, travel kit or family first-aid kit. Many parents appreciate having a simple, drug-free option that everyone can keep close at hand—whether they’re at school, attending CCA, travelling or simply enjoying time outdoors. 5. Why do you think mosquito bites are often dismissed as a minor inconvenience? Jonathan Knapp: For most people, a mosquito bite is simply an itchy nuisance. However, in many parts of the world – including Singapore – mosquitoes can carry serious diseases such as dengue. We believe it’s important to strike a balance: we don’t want families... --- - Published: 2026-06-26 - Modified: 2026-06-26 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/nava-nest-champions-material-safety-for-babies-this-baby-led-weaning-day-interview-with-co-founder-cheryl-ng/ - Categories: INTERVIEW, PARENTING/EDUCATION - Tags: Baby-Led Weaning, BLW, Cheryl Ng, Nava Nest What started as a mother's search for safer and more practical feeding essentials has grown into a Singapore baby tableware brand with a mission to encourage greater transparency in children's products. Founded by Cheryl Ng in 2025, Nava Nest was inspired by her own experience navigating her daughter's weaning journey. Like many parents, Cheryl wanted feeding products that were safe, functional and aesthetically pleasing, but found that many options on the market required compromises in one way or another. Rather than settling, she decided to create a solution that reflected the standards she was looking for as a parent herself. Today, Nava Nest offers a range of porcelain and stainless steel feeding essentials that have been independently tested by SGS. Built around the brand's "Honest Materials" philosophy, the products are designed to support children through their weaning journey while giving parents greater insight into the materials used in everyday feeding products. In conjunction with Baby-Led Weaning (BLW) Day on 1 July, Nava Nest is also shining a spotlight on an often-overlooked aspect of self-feeding: material safety. Through a public awareness initiative, the brand hopes to encourage parents to ask more questions about the products their children use every day and to make informed decisions when selecting feeding essentials. Why Material Safety Matters While parents naturally focus on nutrition and developmental milestones during the weaning stage, Cheryl believes it is equally important to understand the products that come into direct contact with a child's food. As babies begin exploring self-feeding, bowls, plates and cutlery become more than simple dining tools. They are touched, held, chewed and used daily as part of a child's learning and development. For this reason, Nava Nest advocates greater awareness around the materials used in feeding products and the importance of independent testing and transparency. The company's range features porcelain bowls and plates paired with stainless steel cutlery, materials chosen for their durability and long-term usability. Products are independently tested by SGS against FDA food-grade standards, with the brand encouraging parents to look beyond marketing claims and seek information about product materials and testing standards. As part of its awareness campaign, Nava Nest encourages parents to ask the following questions before purchasing baby tableware: • What materials is this product made of? • Has it been independently tested by a third-party body? • Does it contain melamine or plastic components? • If it is ceramic, has the glaze been tested for heavy metal leaching? • Is it designed for durability and long-term use? Interview with Cheryl Ng, Nava Nest's Co-Founder. We spoke with Cheryl Ng to learn more about the inspiration behind Nava Nest, the importance of material safety during the weaning journey, and the brand's vision for the future. Read on to discover more. 1. What inspired you to start Nava Nest, and what gap did you notice in the baby tableware market? Cheryl Ng: Nava Nest was born out of a frustrating reality I encountered as a parent during my daughter's weaning journey. I wanted tableware that was safe, practical, and beautiful, but the market seemed to force parents to compromise on at least one of those qualities. Plastic and melamine products often offered functionality, such as suction features, but raised material concerns I couldn't ignore. Meanwhile, many ceramic options were aesthetically pleasing but lacked the practicality parents need during mealtimes. I realised there was a gap in the market for a solution that combined safety, practicality, and thoughtful design in one product. That became the foundation of Nava Nest. 2. How did your own weaning experience with your child shape the brand's direction? Cheryl Ng: My daughter's transition to solids was a real turning point for me. Like many parents, I spent a lot of time thinking about what she was eating. But during the weaning stage, I had an "aha moment" and began asking a different question: what was she eating from? As she started touching, chewing, and exploring everything around her, I became much more conscious of the materials in our home. That experience led me to research baby tableware more deeply and ultimately shaped Nava Nest's philosophy around "Honest Materials”; prioritising materials that are safe, durable, and worthy of everyday use. 3. Why is BLW Day a meaningful moment for Nava Nest to speak up about material safety? Cheryl Ng: BLW Day is personally meaningful because it coincides with a milestone that transformed the way I thought about feeding and child development. It was during my daughter's weaning journey around 3. 5 years ago that I became acutely aware of the materials we were using every day. The weaning stage is a critical developmental period when babies are highly engaged with their environment. Through my research, I realised that many parents may not be aware of issues such as chemical migration, microplastic exposure, and material degradation when exposed to heat. BLW Day provides an important opportunity to start a broader conversation about material safety and to empower parents to make informed choices. 4. For readers new to baby-led weaning, can you explain why babies' direct contact with tableware makes material choice especially important at this stage? Cheryl Ng: During baby-led weaning, babies do much more than eat from their tableware. They chew on spoons, mouth bowls, explore textures with their hands, and interact directly with food and feeding tools for extended periods. At the same time, foods are often served warm or contain acidic ingredients, which can increase the likelihood of certain materials breaking down or releasing substances into food. Because babies are in direct and frequent contact with both food and tableware, material choice becomes especially important. The goal is to remove unnecessary risks so parents can focus on helping their child develop confidence and independence around food. 5. What's the difference between porcelain/stainless steel and the plastic or melamine tableware most parents already own? Cheryl Ng: Porcelain and stainless steel are widely used in adult dining because they are durable, non-porous, and designed for long-term food contact. Porcelain is... --- - Published: 2026-06-25 - Modified: 2026-06-25 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/creme-maison-bakery-introduces-two-luxurious-new-mille-crepe-cake-creations-featuring-msw-durian-and-dubai-chocolate-pistachio/ - Categories: DINING - Tags: Creme Maison Bakery, Dubai Chocolate Pistachio, Mille Crêpe Cake, MSW Durian Discover the Rich Flavours of MSW Durian and Dubai Chocolate Pistachio Dessert lovers have something new to look forward to as Creme Maison Bakery expands its gourmet cake collection with the launch of two luxurious Mille Crêpe Cake creations — the MSW Durian Mille Crêpe Cake and the Dubai Chocolate Pistachio Mille Crêpe Cake. Known for its handcrafted desserts and lower-sugar recipes, Creme Maison Bakery continues to delight customers with innovative flavours that blend premium ingredients, artisanal craftsmanship and thoughtful indulgence. The latest additions to its collection offer two distinct taste experiences, catering to both lovers of local flavours and fans of trending international desserts. A Tribute to Singapore's Favourite King of Fruits For durian enthusiasts, the MSW Durian Mille Crêpe Cake promises a rich and satisfying experience. Crafted using premium Mao Shan Wang (MSW) durian, the cake features generous layers of fresh durian pulp nestled between delicate handmade crêpes and light, airy cream. The natural richness and creamy texture of Mao Shan Wang durian take centre stage, creating a dessert that captures the beloved fruit's distinctive character while presenting it in an elegant and refined form. Served chilled, the cake is ideal for celebrations, gatherings, or as a thoughtful gift for fellow durian lovers. Having had the opportunity to taste the cake ourselves, we found it to be a delightful balance of flavour and texture. The premium durian delivers its signature creamy richness and unmistakable aroma, while the light cream and delicate crêpe layers help to soften the intensity, resulting in a dessert that feels indulgent without being overly heavy. The fresh durian pulp adds authenticity and depth to every bite, making it a satisfying treat for both dedicated durian enthusiasts and those looking to enjoy the King of Fruits in a more refined dessert format. Inspired by a Global Dessert Sensation Meanwhile, the Dubai Chocolate Pistachio Mille Crêpe Cake brings together a luxurious combination of flavours inspired by one of the world's most talked-about dessert trends. Each layer features soft pistachio crêpes complemented by velvety pistachio cream, rich Belgian chocolate and crunchy kunafa. The result is a harmonious blend of creamy, nutty, chocolatey and crisp textures that delivers a multi-dimensional dessert experience with every bite. The cake offers an exciting fusion of Middle Eastern-inspired flavours and classic French pastry craftsmanship, making it a standout choice for those seeking something unique and indulgent. During our tasting, we particularly enjoyed the interplay of textures and flavours. The pistachio cream brings a rich nuttiness to the cake, while the Belgian chocolate adds depth and a luxurious cocoa finish. The crunchy kunafa provides a pleasant contrast to the soft crêpe layers, creating an enjoyable textural experience throughout. Despite its decadent ingredients, the cake remains well-balanced and not overly sweet, allowing each component to shine. The result is a sophisticated dessert that feels modern, indulgent and memorable, especially for those who appreciate pistachio-based creations and contemporary dessert trends.

For children especially, seeing a favourite moment transformed into a physical keepsake can make the experience of photography feel even more meaningful. Recognising this, Singapore homegrown kids tech brand myFirst has launched the myFirst Camera Insta Lux, its most advanced instant camera to date. First introduced at CES 2026, the camera is designed to help children and families capture everyday moments and instantly turn them into vibrant printed memories. Combining photography, creativity and instant printing in one child-friendly device, the Insta Lux offers young creators an engaging way to explore the world around them while creating keepsakes they can treasure for years to come Designed with Young Creators in Mind One of the first things that stands out about the myFirst Camera Insta Lux is its focus on simplicity. Children do not need to worry about complicated camera settings or technical adjustments. The point-and-shoot design allows them to focus on what matters most, having fun while capturing the moments that are important to them. Whether it is a family outing, a birthday celebration, a school activity, a holiday adventure or simply an afternoon spent with friends, the camera encourages children to see the world through their own lens and preserve memories from their unique perspective. The inclusion of a 2. 8-inch IPS colour screen also allows users to preview their photos before printing. This thoughtful feature helps minimise unnecessary wastage while giving young photographers the opportunity to choose the images they are most excited to keep. Bringing Digital Memories into the Real World What truly makes the Insta Lux stand out is its ability to transform digital moments into tangible keepsakes almost instantly. Unlike traditional instant cameras that use chemical film, the Insta Lux uses dye-sublimation printing technology. This process applies colour in multiple layers before adding a protective coating, producing vibrant prints that are waterproof and fingerprint-resistant. For children, the excitement of watching a photograph appear in print never gets old. A favourite family photo, a picture of a beloved pet, a fun day at the playground or a special celebration can quickly become something they can hold, share and display. The durable prints are also perfect for scrapbooks, memory journals, school projects, greeting cards and creative craft activities, extending the fun well beyond taking the photo itself. Encouraging Creativity Beyond the Screen Many parents today are looking for ways to balance screen time with meaningful creative activities. The myFirst Camera Insta Lux offers an opportunity for children to engage with technology in a more hands-on and imaginative way. Rather than simply consuming content, they become creators, observing their surroundings, telling stories through photographs and expressing themselves through the images they choose to capture. Built-in creative frames and filters add another layer of enjoyment, allowing children to personalise their photos and experiment with different styles before printing. This combination of creativity and instant gratification helps make photography both fun and rewarding for younger users. Creating Meaningful Family Moments Beyond its creative features, the Insta Lux also encourages families to create memories together. From documenting family holidays and birthday parties to capturing everyday milestones, the camera provides a simple way to preserve moments that might otherwise remain hidden in a digital gallery. Printed photographs often carry a different kind of emotional value. They can be displayed on a notice board, added to a scrapbook, tucked into a memory box or shared with grandparents and loved ones. In a world where so many photos are quickly forgotten, the ability to instantly print and enjoy these memories together makes the experience all the more special. Smart Features for Modern Families The myFirst Camera Insta Lux features a 5MP camera and Smart Exposure technology, helping users capture well-balanced photos across a variety of lighting conditions with minimal effort. It also includes an ergonomic shutter button with an integrated LED flash, making the camera easier to handle while delivering brighter photos in low-light environments. The camera is equipped with dual lenses, including a dedicated selfie lens, making it easy to capture self-portraits and group photos with family and friends. Built-in Wi-Fi connectivity further enhances its versatility. Through the myFirst Circle app, users can print photos directly from their smartphone galleries, allowing previously captured digital memories to be transformed into vibrant physical keepsakes. This added functionality means the Insta Lux serves not only as an instant camera but also as a convenient portable photo printer, giving families more ways to preserve and share their favourite moments. What We Like Designed specifically for children, families and young creators. Simple point-and-shoot operation that is easy to use. Instant prints encourage creativity and memory-making. Waterproof and fingerprint-resistant photos offer added durability. Preview screen helps reduce unnecessary print wastage. Creative frames and filters add a fun personal touch. Smartphone printing capability provides additional flexibility. Things to Consider The camera is designed primarily for children and casual photography rather than advanced photography users.

This July and August, The Theatre Practice (Practice) and Berries World of Learning School are proud to announce the return of Berries Chinese Theatre Festival: Family Edition. Featuring reimagined nursery rhymes, international puppetry and interactive arts experiences, the third iteration of the festival invites families into a vibrant world of storytelling, creativity and play. Theatre as a Gateway to Language, Imagination and Intergenerational Connection Over the past six decades, Practice has championed the spirit of play through its vast repertoire of Mandarin Theatre for Young Audiences (TYA) productions, classes and school programmes, all of which create opportunities for young people to deepen their relationship with Chinese language and culture. Berries Chinese Theatre Festival: Family Edition is both a consolidation and extension of this work, reframing children's relationship with Mandarin as a joyful medium for self-expression, imagination and creativity. According to Practice's Artistic Director Kuo Jian Hong, this year's festival continues Practice’s long-held philosophy that ‘play is serious business’. "These programmes are not created solely for children. They are spaces where adults and children can create memories together and rediscover the joy of play. " The Breakfast Kakis Return With Reimagined Nursery Rhymes Under the beloved Imagine Our Songs series, the Breakfast Kakis have reached over 60,000 audience members, making it one of Singapore's most popular Mandarin arts programmes for families. These mini jukebox musicals bring classic Mandarin nursery rhymes to life for a new generation while inviting adults to revisit cherished childhood memories. The newest instalment consists of two original stories featuring newly arranged songs from The Nursery Rhymes Project 4. The Breakfast Kakis will also lead audiences in a pre-show crafting activity, encouraging children to co-create the imaginative Nursery Rhymes world through making. Experience Acclaimed International Puppetry Without Leaving Singapore! This year's festival also welcomes acclaimed Taiwanese puppetry company Flying Group Theatre for the Singapore premiere of The Three-Legged Crab-Eating Mongoose and the Giant. Adapted from the picture book by acclaimed Taiwanese writer Wu Ming-Yi, the production combines puppetry, objects, light, shadow and live performance to create a poetic theatrical experience celebrating nature’s vitality. Since its premiere last year, the production has received critical acclaim and toured extensively across Taiwan. Through this tender and visually striking work, children are invited to develop empathy, courage and emotional awareness, while adults are encouraged to rediscover the beauty and resilience of the natural world through a child's perspective. Extending the Spirit of Play Beyond the Stage The festival sees the return of the Play With: series, this time created by teaching artists from Practice’s long-running Children’s Courses. "The goal is not simply to complete a task or produce a finished outcome, but to discover one's own ideas through the process," Kuo explains. "By stepping away from screens and returning to tactile, imaginative play, families can reconnect through shared experiences and rediscover everyday joys. " This philosophy comes to life in two family experiences under the Play With: series. Play With: The More We Make Together Designed for children aged 4 to 6 and their families, this workshop is led by veteran arts educator Ang Lay Hoon (Teacher Red). In this interactive, craft-centric experience, Teacher Red invites families to get hands-on and make something new together. Families are encouraged to reimagine everyday objects in a guided woodcrafting process. Through collaborative creation, they’ll discover new possibilities in familiar materials while exploring cooperation, problem-solving and mutual support. Play With: Story Quest Designed for children aged 7 to 9 and their families, this collaborative storytelling experience is led by storyteller, performer and arts educator Ng Mun Poh. Families are invited into a shared adventure of storytelling and theatre games where participants must work together to tackle “roadblocks”. In a playful reversal of everyday family dynamics, children take on the role of leaders, guiding adults through theatrical missions and creative challenges.

Complementing the condom is a newly engineered easy-open butter dish format, paired with a three times faster unroll feature, for a smoother intimate experience from start to finish. “With Durex® 001, we wanted to create a product that feels closer, smoother and more instinctive than ever before,” said Zoe Teo, Durex Brand Manager. “From our thinnest-ever condom to intensified lubrication and a faster, more effortless unroll design, every detail was created to remove distractions and allow couples to stay fully connected in the moment,” she continued.

Celebrating fathers who are one of the cornerstones of family life, the culinary concepts are perfect for family gatherings with special shareable menus across KA-MON, Pierre Hermé, Moutarde and Laurus Table. Open-flame Japanese dining at KA-MON At KA-MON, the Japanese restaurant presents a dedicated Father’s Day dinner anchored by premium ingredients and charcoal grilling with the disciplined approach of Japanese culinary precision. The pièce de résistance A5 Wagyu Robatayaki (S$168) takes centrestage – a quietly indulgent expression of Japan’s reverence for exceptional ingredients, brought to life over open flame and designed for sharing. Complementing the spread are dishes such as the Bonito Warayaki (S$38), Chiba’s prized bonito that’s lightly seared over straw for that hint of smokiness with notes of ponzu and fresh aromatics, and the Grilled Samegarei Donabe (S$138), featuring the naturally-sweet Hokkaido roughscale flounder in claypot rice enriched with house-made dashi. Refined and elegant afternoon tea at Pierre Hermé The celebration extends to Pierre Hermé with a refined afternoon offering. As part of its ongoing afternoon tea experience, the maison presents its signature selection as the centrepiece, elevated with a repertoire of delicious savouries and signature creations including Montebello, vanilla éclair, macarons and chocolate bonbons. Priced at S$98++, the Father’s Day afternoon tea comes with two servings of tea or coffee. Guests may choose to top up S$50++ for a half-bottle of champagne to mark the special occasion. On 21 June, all fathers dining in will also receive a complimentary dessert of pecan brownie layered with maple mousse, served alongside whisky-poached pear. A convivial French brunch at Moutarde At Moutarde, the Father’s Day “Good Brunch” (S$88++) brings together a spread of classic French favourites – from Oeufs Bénédicte to Croque Monsieur – alongside artisan pastries and brunch beverages. At the heart of the experience is a live carvery featuring generous, big-format cuts, reinforcing the convivial, sharing-style spirit of the occasion. Altogether, the menu is designed for easy, indulgent dining in a setting that encourages lingering over the meal. Diners can booze up the dining experience with free-flow house beers, cocktails and wine at S$50, or indulge further in a free-flow champagne package at S$90 for a more celebratory experience. Southern Italian flavours at Laurus Table Rounding out the line-up, Laurus Table presents a four-course menu centred on robust, seasonal flavours, available at S$98++ per person. Beginning with antipasti such as burrata with heirloom tomatoes, peach and pistachio, followed by indulgent mains including seafood-forward options like grilled Boston lobster with shellfish and lobster jus, the menu draws inspiration from the Southern Italian coast famed for its quality produce and sunny beaches. Guests may also elevate the experience with premium selections such as Spaghetti al Oscietra Caviar (from S$38), a refined interpretation of the Italian classic. The meal concludes with a dessert of chocolate pecan brownie with maple mousse and whisky-poached pear – a familiar yet elevated finish to the celebration. A range of culinary concepts awaits diners across the resort Beyond these highlights, guests can explore a wider range of culinary concepts across the resort, including: • A selection of Father’s Day cocktails and mocktails at Horatio, Soi Social, CHIFA, Osia, Moutarde, Laurus Table and The Collector’s Bar. • Refined Japanese dining experience at Syun, guided by a philosophy of refined craftsmanship and warm “omotenashi”—the art of hospitality.

This is the first-of-its-kind large scale transformation of Sentosa where beloved Disney stories and characters inspired by the Disney Adventure’s seven themed areas will be featured all across the island’s precincts, landscapes and natural character. Activities will run daily from 24 June to 20 September 2026, inviting guests to create their own unique exploratory destination around Sentosa. Designed as a day-to-night experience, A Magical Island Adventure combines light, sound, movement and environment across Sentosa's precincts and natural landscapes, from sunlit beach encounters and interactive play spaces to glowing night-time environments and discovery-led trails. The island will transform after dark where multiple glowing installations will light up the spaces in vibrant colours. Also, for the first time, the Southernmost Point of Continental Asia will extend its opening hours until 10. 00pm (SGT) as part of a dedicated night time programme. The iconic location offers guests a unique vantage point to experience Sentosa after dark. One Island, Seven Special Experiences Visitors can embark on a discovery trail at their own pace throughout the day and night with an event passport as they explore different experiences that span across the Singapore Cable Car - Sentosa Line to Sensoryscape, Central Beach Bazaar, Palawan Beach, The Palawan @ Sentosa, and the Southernmost Point of Continental Asia. Each location will be decked out with features that are inspired by the Disney Adventure’s iconic seven themed areas such as the Disney Imagination Garden, Disney Discovery Reef, Town Square, Wayfinder Bay, San Fransokyo Street, Toy Story Place, and Marvel Landing. At each stop, visitors can collect a special medallion stamp in their event passport that represents these onboard spaces. Sentosa Express The adventure begins before guests even set foot on the island. Starting from early July, the Sentosa Express, Sentosa's iconic monorail, arrives dressed for the occasion. Featuring Captain Mickey Mouse and Captain Minnie Mouse on the train’s exterior, it welcomes guests into A Magical Island Adventure from the moment they board at VivoCity, serving as a moving landmark and a taste of the Disney Cruise Line magic that awaits. Singapore Cable Car - Sentosa Line A Magical Island Adventure will also take to the skies aboard the Singapore Cable Car - Sentosa Line, extending the island's storytelling into the air. All three stations — Sensoryscape, Imbiah Lookout, and Siloso Point — will feature photo installations featuring various Disney characters, ensuring the experience begins well before guests step into a cable car cabin. The cabins will take on a new look with designs inspired by Disney Cruise Line themed areas aboard the Disney Adventure, including Toy Story Place and Disney Discovery Reef. From beach to skyline, A Magical Island Adventure reimagines the Singapore Cable Car as an experience that is visually immersive and full of discovery. Southernmost Point of Continental Asia One of Sentosa's most celebrated landmarks, the Southernmost Point of Continental Asia, will transform into a luminous coastal escape drawing inspiration from Disney Discovery Reef and Wayfinder Bay, bringing to life Disney and Pixar stories like Finding Nemo, The Little Mermaid and Lilo & Stitch. The themed showpieces will cast the area in shifting oceanic hues, while glowing manta ray installations illuminate the waters surrounding the Southernmost Point bridge, creating a special after-dark atmosphere. The Wayfinder Bay-inspired area further draws on the spirit of ocean voyaging from the adventurous world of Walt Disney Animation Studio’s Moana, animating the islet with wayfinding motifs, compass-inspired imagery and star-lit pathways designed to reward exploration and discovery. A dedicated ticket covers access to a unique night experience which offers a gamified exploration journey, including a complimentary activity card where guests can collect four unique embossed stamps, and a limited-edition Disney Adventure-themed postcard keepsake. Palawan Beach Palawan Beach serves as the heart of the island-wide activities where visitors will get to enjoy installations themed after San Fransokyo Street, Toy Story Place, and Marvel Landing at The Palawan @ Sentosa all along Sentosa's most beloved shoreline. Upon arrival at Palawan Beach, guests will be welcomed by a 6-metre inflatable anchor installation flanked by sand-blasted figurines of Captain Mickey Mouse and Captain Minnie Mouse, serving as the event's signature outdoor photo moment. The San Fransokyo Street themed area of the beach draws guests into the eclectic world inspired by Walt Disney Animation Studio’s “Big Hero 6” with a 6-metre Baymax inflatable and beachside deck chairs, creating a relaxed atmosphere for visitors to linger and explore. A dedicated food and retail precinct sits alongside, bringing together food trucks and retailers within a lively beachside activation space, with offerings refreshed across the three-month event period. A short walk away, the shore features larger-than-life bath toys inspired by Toy Story Place with fan-favourite characters like Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Jessie and Bullseye, alongside bubble inflatables and a Toy Story splash pad-inspired shoreline play area centred around a 3. 9-metre shower-head feature, with neon lighting transforming the space after dark. At The Palawan @ Sentosa, guests will be treated to installations that take their cue from Marvel Landing’s attractions like Ironcycle Test Run roller coaster and Groot Galaxy Spin, alongside an Infinity Bar inspired space that will have visitors delighted at neon-lit cocktail sculptures when the sun sets. Central Beach Bazaar and Sensoryscape A natural crossroads on Sentosa's beaches, Central Beach Bazaar is where visitors are able to spot the 3. 5-metre Magical Compass installation depicting the Disney Adventure’s seven themed areas that also serve as a storytelling guide across the island. At Sensoryscape, the entire venue is transformed into a Town Square inspired royal promenade lined with 13 princess-themed hammock installations spotlighting beloved princesses and heroines like Ariel, Belle, Cinderella, Merida, Mulan, Raya, Snow White, and more. Be sure to strike a pose with your favourite Disney princess as you identify each of them only through their silhouettes accompanied by recognisable motifs.

As Official Sponsor of the FIFA World Cup 2026™, Rexona is unveiling the Coolest Football Moments Museum Train in Singapore: an immersive, six-cabin moving gallery built around composure under pressure, the quality that has always defined football's most memorable moments. Presented by Rexona Men Arctic Rush, the new range engineered to deliver instant cooling of up to -20°C, the museum brings to life the moments where keeping cool made all the difference, on and off the pitch. World Cup season brings the heat. The tension, the passion, the intensity. Through all of it, Rexona keeps you cool. For the first time, a Singapore Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) train has been fully transformed into an immersive, six-cabin moving museum. You could be midway through an ordinary commute when a train wrapped in striking visuals and stories of football's coolest, most composed moments pulls into your station. A MOVING MUSEUM LIKE NO OTHER Spanning six fully themed cabins, the travelling museum is an editorial celebration of football culture: the nerve, composure and brilliance the game is famous for, told through five decorated nations with rich footballing traditions, Brazil, Germany, Argentina, France and Spain. Each cabin is devoted to one nation. Step aboard and you're immediately immersed. Country-coloured seats line the cabin, while frozen-effect floors surround the FIFA World Cup 2026™ emblem, setting the tone for the coolest moments to come. Above the seats, illustrated panels tell the stories of unlikely comebacks, last-gasp glory, and the composure that made the impossible possible. It's football culture unfolding around you, one moment at a time. The sixth cabin is the one closest to our hearts: a tribute to Singapore's footballing spirit, the drive to keep growing stronger, the passion of local fans, and a footballing story that's still being written. THINK YOU KNOW FOOTBALL? PROVE YOUR CHILL. Want to test your football knowledge? A nationwide trivia challenge invites commuters to scan a QR code, take on football trivia, and discover their personal Chill Factor score — because the coolest fans don't just watch the game, they know it. Submit your quiz results for a chance to win tickets to watch the FIFA World Cup 2026™ right where the action is, plus Rexona products and merchandise. Then share your score on social media for bragging rights. Operating as a regular MRT service along the East-West and North-South lines from 10 June to 19 July, the Football Museum on Rail presented by Rexona runs with no fixed schedule. It could pull up at any station, at any time, turning an ordinary commute into a surprising moment of football discovery. Shermaine Chen, Head of Marketing, Unilever Singapore, said: "The greatest moments in football have always come down to keeping cool when it matters most. As Official Sponsor of the FIFA World Cup 2026™, Rexona is bringing that spirit to life on Singapore's MRT, celebrating composure in the beautiful game, paying tribute to our own football story, and delivering the cool, on and off the pitch. " A CELEBRATION OF COOL — ON AND OFF THE PITCH The Football Museum on Rail is anchored by two things: the coolest, most composed moments the game has to offer, and the innovation that keeps you cool when the heat is on, the Rexona Men Arctic Rush range. Rexona brings its latest cooling technology* to this World Cup season. The anti-perspirant range instantly brings skin temperature down by up to 20 degrees Celsius, delivering a burst of Arctic freshness from the first application. Paired with 72-hour non-stop odour and sweat protection, it's engineered for those who bring their energy, whether you're pushing yourself on the court or the field, cheering from the stands, catching a match at a watch party, or navigating Singapore's heat on the daily commute. Whatever turns up the heat, Rexona brings the chill. Left to right: Rexona Men Arctic Rush in Bergamot Fresh and Ocean Mist Available in two bold masculine fragrances: Bergamot Fresh, a citrusy aroma of bergamot spiced with cool undertones, and Ocean Mist, an invigorating blend of cool ocean breeze and crisp mint. Both come in spray and roll-on formats. Refreshing protection, instant cooling and unbeatable endurance. When the pressure is on, Rexona won't let you down. *Based on lab testing vs. previous technology Availability The Football Museum on Rail presented by Rexona will be operating along the East-West and North-South lines from 10 June to 19 July. The Rexona Men Arctic Rush range is available at major health and beauty retailers including Guardian and Watsons, and online platforms including Lazada, Shopee and Unilever's Official Store on TikTok Shop. #RexonaSG #RexonaArcticRush #FIFAWorldCup2026 --- - Published: 2026-06-10 - Modified: 2026-06-10 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/skypark-sentosa-relaunches-with-new-skyslides-by-klook-inviting-visitors-to-play-it-their-way/ - Categories: EVENTS - Tags: Klook, Skydrop, Skypark Sentosa, Skyslides by Klook, The Big Klook Slide, ZJ Adventures ZJ Adventures has announced the relaunch of Skypark Sentosa, with the introduction of Skyslides by Klook, a new dual-slide experience developed in partnership with leading travel and experiences platform, Klook. The refreshed attraction will open to the public from 7 June 2026. Featuring two distinct slides, Skydrop and The Big Klook Slide, both stand at 44 metres as Southeast Asia’s tallest dry slides, offering visitors of all ages new ways to play, whether that means enjoying the ride or simply letting go. Skyslides by Klook expands Skypark Sentosa’s existing line-up — which includes Singapore’s only Bungy Jump, Giant Swing and Skybridge — introducing a more inclusive, experience-led approach to play. Designed for different ages, comfort levels and play styles, the attraction invites visitors to explore and engage at their own pace. A new way to experience Skypark Sentosa Skyslides by Klook introduces two individual rider slides, each offering panoramic views of Sentosa and a distinct experience. In addition to being one of Southeast Asia's tallest dry slides, Skydrop also helms the role of the world’s tallest land-based drop slide. While the experience begins with a brief drop element, guests quickly transition into the slide’s curved path, creating a ride that feels dynamic and exciting. The Big Klook Slide, wrapped in Klook’s iconic orange, offers a more relaxed, scenic alternative from the same height, making it ideal for families and younger riders. Enhanced by immersive UV lighting, the attraction features a built-in conveyor system that ensures a seamless and immersive ride flow. Similar to Skydrop, riders can also further personalise their experience through themed variations paired with music and audiovisual elements — adding a playful and interactive touch to every ride. “Across the industry, we are seeing a shift in how people engage with attractions — it is no longer just about pushing limits, but about having the choice to experience something in a way that feels right for you,” said Zishan Amir, CEO, ZJ Adventures. “With the new attraction, we wanted to create something that feels exciting yet accessible, where visitors can decide how they want to play, whether that is trying something new or simply enjoying the moment. As an operator, safety is always our top priority, followed closely by guest experience and comfort — these are the foundations of everything we build, while we continue to design experiences that people can return to again and again, in different ways. ” Against the backdrop of Singapore's thriving tourism sector, the partnership with Klook firstly reflects a shared ambition to create engaging, accessible experiences for a growing global audience. By combining Skypark Sentosa’s refreshed line-up with Klook’s global user base, the collaboration opens up new ways for both international visitors and locals to discover and enjoy the attraction. Skyslides by Klook also marks Klook’s first-ever branded attraction globally — debuting in Singapore and reflecting the brand's evolution beyond an experiences platform into a creator of its own attractions. \“With the launch of Skyslides by Klook, we are taking our belief in joy beyond the platform and bringing it into the real world through two distinct slides that form one connected experience. Skypark Sentosa has been a valued partner of Klook, and we are excited to deepen this collaboration by creating something new together. As our first-of-its-kind attraction, it reflects Klook’s commitment to delivering innovative experiences that add to the energy and vibrancy of Sentosa, while enriching Singapore’s wider tourism landscape,” said Sarah Wan, General Manager, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand, Klook. Alongside its attractions, Skypark Sentosa is complemented by Summerhouse, its beach club and dining concept, where a viewing pool offers a front-row seat to the action. Together, the space brings immersive play experiences, dining, and social moments into one destination — allowing visitors to move seamlessly between activities, whether they are taking part, watching from the sidelines, or simply unwinding. Designed for flexibility, Skypark Sentosa offers a place to spend quality time your way, beyond just the rides. Ticketing Information Bookings are available via Klook, and on Skypark Sentosa’s website. Skyslides tickets are available in two-ride or three-ride packages, with guests able to mix and match their rides across Skydrop and The Big Klook Slide upon arrival. ● Two-ride ticket package: $28 ● Three-ride ticket package: $33 Launch Promotion – Skyslides Premier Pack (Limited-Time): ● First 1,000 Skyslides ticket packages purchased will receive a complimentary Slide Video (worth $20) Purchase-with-Purchase Offers (Valid for June 2026 only): ● Bungy Jump at $40 (U.

The collaboration sees Holland & Barrett return exclusively through Guardian's retail network and online platforms, introducing an initial range of more than 50 curated products spanning key wellness categories. Established in 1870, Holland & Barrett has more than 155 years of heritage in science-led health and wellness, with a presence in over 1,000 stores across 22 countries. As consumers become increasingly focused on preventive wellbeing, including areas such as immunity, gut health, stress management and nutritional support, the partnership aims to make trusted wellness solutions more accessible to Singaporeans.

The hidden cost of “always being strong” Modern men today juggle multiple responsibilities. They are fathers, partners, providers, and mentors often simultaneously. In fulfilling these roles, personal health frequently takes a back seat, with many men tending to address issues only when symptoms or problems become unavoidable. This reactive approach, however, can come at a cost. Findings from a 2025 Singapore study indicate that older men in the workforce experience higher burnout rates compared to women, with longer working hours identified as a contributing factor. Over time, sustained stress and delayed self-care may affect energy levels, emotional resilience, and overall vitality. Redefining strength for Father’s Day This Father’s Day, LAC is advocating for a more sustainable and modern definition of strength, one that goes beyond endurance and sacrifice. True strength, the brand highlights, includes the ability to care for oneself consistently, not only for the sake of personal wellbeing, but also to continue showing up for loved ones with energy and presence. Rather than viewing health as something to “fix” only when it breaks down, LAC encourages men to see it as an ongoing investment built through small, consistent habits. Building everyday resilience through simple habits Preventive health starts with the basics: balanced nutrition, sufficient rest, stress management, and consistent wellness routines. However, demanding schedules and irregular eating habits can make it difficult to maintain optimal nutritional intake every day. In this context, foundational supplementation can help bridge nutritional gaps that may arise from modern lifestyles, supporting men in maintaining energy and resilience over time. Supporting men’s health foundations As part of its men’s wellness portfolio, LAC offers science-based formulations designed to support everyday vitality and long-term wellbeing: LAC Men’s Mega Multi ActiveA comprehensive daily multivitamin formulated to support men’s nutritional needs, energy levels, and overall wellbeing particularly for those managing demanding and fast-paced lifestyles. Find out more and get the product HERE. LAC Wild O® MacaContains premium maca root extract, traditionally used to support endurance, energy, and emotional wellbeing, helping men maintain vitality through daily physical and mental demands. Find out more and get the product HERE. Together, these products reflect LAC’s commitment to supporting men’s foundational health, helping them stay energised, resilient, and ready to continue showing up for themselves and the people who matter most. A timely reminder this Father’s Day As conversations around preventive health and healthy ageing continue to grow in relevance, Men’s Health Week and Father’s Day serve as timely reminders that self-care is not a luxury, it is a necessity. By taking proactive steps today, men can build stronger foundations for tomorrow, ensuring they remain not only present for others, but also well-supported in their own journey of health and vitality. --- - Published: 2026-06-05 - Modified: 2026-06-06 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/i-light-singapore-2026-returns-to-marina-bay-from-5-to-28-june-2026/ - Categories: EVENTS - Tags: EPIC World Championship, GastroBeats, i Light, i Light Singapore 2026, Marina Bay, Movement, UOB, Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) Singapore’s waterfront is glowing once again as i Light Singapore 2026 returns from 5 to 28 June 2026, transforming Marina Bay and Raffles Place into a vibrant open-air gallery of light, art and creativity.

Visitors are invited to walk through its glowing arches and experience how light, colour and space converge within the artwork. This year also marks the launch of i Light Future, a new mentorship initiative presented by DesignSingapore Council to nurture emerging talent in light, design and technology. The inaugural programme showcases two installations by local creatives. Steps by Nawal Bte Azhar (Courtesy of i Light Singapore 2026) At Mist Walk, Market Cycles by Tan Mei Yee and Ng Choon Wee (Singapore) transforms everyday wet market plastic crates into a luminous architectural installation, encouraging visitors to reconsider the beauty and value of ordinary objects. Along Marina Boulevard, Steps by Nawal Bte Azhar (Singapore) reimagines staircases as illuminated structures that symbolise Singapore’s progress through resilience, growth and collective effort. Beyond the light installations, visitors can also enjoy GastroBeats 2026 at Bayfront Event Space.

Making its highly anticipated Southeast Asian debut, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory arrives in Singapore as a visually spectacular Broadway musical that blends nostalgia, humour, fantasy, and heartfelt storytelling into one unforgettable theatrical experience. Presented by Broadway International Group and Broadway Asia, in association with Base Entertainment Asia, the internationally acclaimed production began its Singapore season on 19 May 2026 and will run until 14 June 2026 for a strictly limited season at Sands Theatre. Based on Roald Dahl’s globally beloved novel, the musical follows the story of young Charlie Bucket, a kind-hearted boy who discovers one of five coveted Golden Tickets hidden inside Wonka chocolate bars. The ticket grants him access to the mysterious chocolate factory run by the eccentric Willy Wonka, where every room reveals astonishing inventions, magical surprises, and important life lessons. Featuring iconic songs from the classic 1971 film including “Pure Imagination,” “The Candy Man,” and “I’ve Got a Golden Ticket,” alongside original Broadway music by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman, the production combines timeless nostalgia with large-scale theatrical spectacle. We interviewed Oliver Wong, who plays Charlie Bucket, about bringing the iconic character to life on stage and what audiences can look forward to when the musical arrives at Sands Theatre. Read our full interview with Oliver Wong here. For many audience members, the story carries a deep sense of nostalgia. Generations have grown up reading the novel or watching the classic film adaptations, but seeing the magical factory brought to life on stage adds an entirely new level of wonder. From the opening scenes, the production embraces theatrical imagination wholeheartedly, transforming the stage into a vibrant fantasy world packed with oversized candy creations, inventive visual effects, dazzling lighting, and playful choreography. At the centre of the production is Daniel Plimpton as Willy Wonka, delivering a performance that feels both charismatic and intriguingly mysterious. Rather than portraying Wonka purely as an eccentric chocolatier, Plimpton brings warmth and emotional depth to the role while maintaining the character’s mischievous unpredictability. His stage presence effortlessly commands attention, particularly during “Pure Imagination,” which becomes one of the evening’s standout moments. His vocals are polished, expressive, and perfectly suited to the whimsical tone of the musical. The role of Charlie Bucket is shared by young performers Cohen Toukatly and Oliver Wong, both bringing warmth, sincerity, and youthful innocence to the beloved character. Toukatly, who makes his international professional debut in the production, captures Charlie’s kindness and determination beautifully, while Wong brings a natural charm and emotional authenticity to the role. Their performances help anchor the production emotionally amidst all the larger-than-life spectacle surrounding Wonka’s magical factory. Steve McCoy, a veteran touring performer who has played Grandpa Joe in more than 370 performances worldwide, brings both humour and heart to the role. His lively stage energy and natural rapport with the audience make Grandpa Joe one of the production’s most endearing characters. The supporting cast injects the musical with energy and personality from start to finish. Allison Gann’s Veruca Salt is wonderfully spoiled and hilariously demanding, while Giselle Amarisa Watts delivers an energetic and confident performance as Violet Beauregarde. DJ Plunkett’s Mike Teavee provides plenty of comic relief with his sarcastic delivery and modern attitude, while Sam Nackman embraces Augustus Gloop’s exaggerated gluttony with scene-stealing comedic timing. Visually, the production is consistently impressive. The elaborate set pieces, immersive projections, colourful costumes, and inventive stage illusions create a sense of constant discovery. The creative team smartly balances Broadway spectacle with storytelling rather than relying solely on effects. Every major factory sequence feels distinct, ensuring the audience remains visually engaged throughout the production. One particularly notable aspect of the Singapore staging is how the experience extends beyond the theatre itself. Guests are welcomed by a specially designed chocolate-themed photo wall created in collaboration with acclaimed Singaporean chocolatier and chef-artist, Janice Wong. Crafted using chocolate paint and edible chocolate elements, the installation transforms the theatre entrance into an interactive extension of Wonka’s imaginative universe. The production also introduces the “Wonka’s Surprise Golden Ticket Campaign,” described by organisers as one of the largest audience engagement activations staged for a musical in Singapore. More than 8,000 Golden Tickets have been hidden beneath selected theatre seats throughout the show’s run, giving audiences the chance to discover prizes ranging from dining experiences and retail treats to beauty rewards and exclusive collectibles. It cleverly captures the same excitement and anticipation that defines the original story itself. Musically, the production succeeds in balancing beloved classics with fresh theatrical arrangements. Iconic songs including “The Candy Man,” “I’ve Got a Golden Ticket,” and “Pure Imagination” remain crowd favourites, while the newer Broadway compositions blend seamlessly into the narrative. Under the musical supervision of Nate Patten and Greg Jarrett, the score feels lively, polished, and emotionally engaging throughout. What makes this production especially successful is that beneath all the visual spectacle lies a timeless and relatable message. Themes of kindness, humility, greed, family, and imagination remain just as meaningful today as when the novel was first published. The musical never loses sight of its emotional core, reminding audiences why Charlie Bucket continues to resonate across generations. For families, theatre lovers, and longtime fans of the story, delivers a genuinely entertaining Broadway experience filled with charm, wonder, humour, and heart. It is the kind of production that leaves audiences smiling long after the curtain falls.

The launch also introduces the first full-service airline on the Singapore–Phu Quoc route, creating new opportunities to attract high-quality international travellers to Phu Quoc. A full-service milestone on a high-potential route The direct Singapore–Phu Quoc route has rapidly emerged as one of Phu Quoc’s most vibrant international routes, currently served primarily by low-cost carriers with daily frequencies.

Together, the two destinations offer travellers a balanced combination of vibrant urban energy and secluded resort experiences, all within less than two hours’ flight time. With its visa exemption policy for international visitors, Phu Quoc is increasingly well positioned as an ideal destination for weekend getaways among Singapore residents and the expatriate community based in the city-state. According to Skyscanner data, searches for Phu Quoc by users in Singapore increased by as much as 184% year-on-year, placing the island second on the list of trending destinations for 2026.

Amid fluctuations in global travel costs, Sun PhuQuoc Airways’ timely network expansion reflects its operational readiness and long-term commitment to the “Rise to Asia” strategy.

Anchored on the theme ‘Sustainability’, this year’s edition invites children to become Earth’s Superheroes as they imagine a greener future through play, discovery, and wonder. Led by Children’s Museum Singapore (CMSG) — Singapore's first and only children's museum — Children’s Season 2026 marks the first time CMSG celebrates International Day of Play (IDOP) through PLAY @ Children’s Season 2026, a dedicated week of play-based programmes culminating in a weekend carnival from 12 to 14 June, stretching from CMSG to Lewin Terrace and Armenian Street. Children at the Heart of Children's Season As Singapore's first and only museum dedicated to children, CMSG is built on the belief that play is how children learn most naturally and deeply. This philosophy comes to life in Children's Season 2026, which features its third iteration of the Children’s Panel. Comprising 25 students from Huamin Primary School aged 10 to 11, the panel worked closely with CMSG and artists, providing insights and feedback to co-create this edition’s Signature Programmes. Among their contributions: a suggestion to design a badge as part of the craft component for Ms. Nat and the Zero Waste Heroes, and a hand in developing the props and costumes for the animal characters in The Four Harmonious Friends. These reflect CMSG's genuine commitment to letting children shape the experiences made for them. “Children have always played a key role in guiding the experiences CMSG offers. Since leading our first Children’s Season in 2024, we have worked closely with young minds to create an exciting roster of programmes across Singapore, and this year is no different. Every experience we create is designed with children at the centre, with their curiosity and creativity driving everything we do. By encouraging children to learn about sustainability in fun and engaging ways, we hope to spark a sense of curiosity in them to discover their crucial role in saving planet Earth. In sowing the seeds of care today, we believe that our children will emerge as resourceful guardians of our future. We are also proud to mark International Day of Play for the first time at Children’s Season, reinforcing our belief that play is a powerful vehicle for learning and discovery. ” said Asmah Alias, Director of Galleries, Exhibitions and Museums, HeritageSG.

Despite ongoing uncertainty, 60% of Singapore travellers are confident about their ability to travel abroad in the next three months, and 91% are planning to travel during the European summer between July and August. While only 35% are yet to book their summer holidays, they are actively searching for options, demonstrating sustained interest in travel despite the complexities of planning. Main Planning Challenges Singapore travellers face several hurdles when planning summer holidays: Finding affordable options that fit their travel circumstances (32%) The time and effort required to research and coordinate dates (24%) Decision paralysis due to uncertain plans or too many options (22%) Skyscanner Travel Trends and Destination Expert, Brendan Walsh, shares: “For many travellers, summer travel planning isn’t just about inspiration. It’s about navigating real hurdles – working around fixed dates, coordinating with others, avoiding crowds, and trying not to overpay in the busiest travel season of the year. In today’s more complex travel environment, thoughtful planning matters more than ever. That’s why this year’s Smarter Summer report is designed to help Singapore travellers make more confident choices on when and where to travel, using Skyscanner’s proprietary data to highlight smarter timings, better-value options and alternative destinations. In a more changeable travel environment, checking live prices and staying flexible on where and when you travel can go a long way when it comes to finding better value. This includes mixing and matching between airlines and airports to curate your best travel plan. More importantly, travellers should stay informed and check the latest travel advice before booking. ” Walsh emphasizes that checking live prices, staying flexible with dates and destinations, and following travel advice can help travellers find better value. Outsmart the Fixed Summer Travel Dates Many travellers are unsure which week offers the best deals with 25% admit they do not know. Skyscanner’s data identifies the week of 10th August as offering the best value for flights, within the summer period of July and August. For Bangkok, the most popular destination among Singapore travellers, the week starting 31 August offers the lowest average ticket price at SGD $164. Skyscanner’s Price Alert feature allows travellers to monitor specific routes and receive notifications when prices change. Outsmart the Cost of Summer Travel Flight prices continue to influence travel decisions, with 59% of travellers saying prices have made them reconsider their plans. Flexibility can help, as 42% of Singapore travellers are able to adjust timing or destinations to manage costs. Skyscanner recommends additional strategies: travelling in cheaper weeks, considering alternative destinations, checking live fares, and using the Drops feature for hourly flight price reductions of at least 20%. Affordable alternative destinations include: Langkawi, Malaysia – From SGD $127 Krabi, Thailand – From SGD $173 Cebu, Philippines – From SGD $224 Note: Prices reflect median return economy fares, excluding promotional fares, based on Skyscanner data from 1 January to 1 March 2026. Live prices may vary. Outsmart the Summer Crowds A significant majority of Singapore travellers (76%) say visiting somewhere that none of their friends, family, or social feed have been to before is appealing – rising to 83% among Gen Z, and more than half of them would choose to visit a quieter, less crowded destination this summer. Skyscanner has analysed its summer search data to identify places with the lowest search interest this season, with their travel experts then handpicking places that are less obvious, but still well worth discovering, including destinations such as Johannesburg, Venice and Urumqi. While the full list can be found in the appendix, travellers can leverage the ‘underrated destinations’ filter on Explore Everywhere function for more options. Outsmart Group Travel Planning Hurdles Planning group summer holidays is known to be effortful - 58% of Singapore travellers say planning a group holiday is more stressful than planning a wedding, while 56% say it is more stressful than starting a new job. The biggest planning hurdles are practical ones, with 2 in 5 (40%) saying aligning on travel dates is one of the hardest parts and 31% saying managing preferences for flights, accommodation or activities is a key challenge. One way to save time is by using Skyscanner’s hotel filters to narrow stays by the things groups care about most, from price and room set-up to pool access and free cancellation.

Addressing these modern concerns, BIODERMA has launched Photoderm XDefense SPF50+, a sunscreen that goes beyond traditional UV protection by combining broad-spectrum defense with detoxifying skincare benefits. Everyday Environmental Stress on Skin Many people associate sunscreen with beach days or sunny weather, but skin is exposed to harmful rays and pollutants every day even through windows or on cloudy days. UVA rays, blue light, and infrared radiation can penetrate deep into the skin, contributing to oxidative stress, pigmentation, and premature ageing. Pollution adds another layer of risk. BIODERMA notes that 99% of the world’s population lives in areas where air pollution exceeds WHO limits. Combined with sunlight, pollutants amplify oxidative stress, damaging DNA, proteins, and lipids, and increasing the risk of skin disorders and photo-ageing. Broad-Spectrum, Multi-Layer Protection Photoderm XDefense SPF50+ delivers SPF50+ and PA++++ protection, with a UVA rating of 35. 9, covering the full solar spectrum including UVB, UVA, long UVA, blue light, and infrared rays. The sunscreen’s Environmental Active Defense technology provides two layers of protection: Surface layer: Anti-UVA and anti-UVB filters with an anti-pollution glycofilm reduce contact between pollutants and the skin. Biological layer: Ectoin, mannitol, and Mycosporine-like Amino Acids (MAAs)—10 times more powerful than vitamin E—neutralize oxidative stress at the cellular level. Ex vivo testing in France showed the formula reduces cell damage by up to 99% from UVB, UVA, visible light, and infrared radiation. Detox Support for Healthier Skin Photoderm XDefense SPF50+ goes beyond protection, helping skin detoxify naturally. Its Detox Science technology activates the Nrf2 protein, the skin’s “detox conductor,” enhancing antioxidant enzyme production and neutralizing pollutants. Clinical studies conducted in Singapore reported: +164% detoxifying power +43% increase in skin radiance after 28 days of use Ecobiology-Inspired Formulation Following BIODERMA’s ecobiology philosophy, the formula is designed to respect the skin’s ecosystem while supporting its natural defenses. Key features include: Only 3 UV filters out of 32 authorized in Europe Free from alcohol, silicones, and microplastics Physiological pH suitable for sensitive skin Biomimetic ingredients like glycerine and cetyl phosphate for hydration and barrier support Lightweight, Ultra-Fluid Texture Unlike many sunscreens, Photoderm XDefense SPF50+ is ultra-fluid and non-greasy, leaving an invisible matte finish. Clinical studies found: 100% of participants rated it ultra-fluid 88% reported it left no white cast and an invisible finish on skin 88% confirmed it provided a matte finish Complete Anti-Pollution Routine BIODERMA recommends pairing Photoderm XDefense SPF50+ with a simple three-step anti-pollution skincare routine: Sensibio H2O Micellar Water – gently removes dirt and pollutants Sensibio Defensive Moisturiser – reduces skin reactivity by 78% and strengthens the skin barrier Photoderm XDefense SPF50+ – final step for sun protection and detoxification Availability Photoderm XDefense SPF50+ is priced at S$46. 90 for 40ml and is available at Amazon. sg, Guardian, LazMall, Shopee Mall, TikTok Shop, Unity, and Watsons. With its combination of broad-spectrum sun protection, detoxifying support, and lightweight formulation, Photoderm XDefense SPF50+ is designed to help skin stay radiant and resilient every day, no matter the environmental stressors. --- - Published: 2026-05-18 - Modified: 2026-05-18 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/june-school-holiday-fun-begins-at-lentor-modern-mall-and-guoco-midtown-ii/ - Categories: EVENTS, PARENTING/EDUCATION - Tags: Guoco Midtown II, Lentor Modern Mall Lentor Modern mall and Guoco Midtown II will present fun and engaging experiences this June school holidays, designed to inspire creativity, learning and play among children and families.

Winner of Suara Juara: The Star Voice 2023, Ezam has proven his skill on the airwaves. Beyond his professional accomplishments, he is a devoted father to four daughters, showing that a successful media career and family life can coexist harmoniously. With over a decade of hosting experience, Ezam has become a sought-after master of ceremonies, specializing in weddings, exhibitions, and major events. His charisma and strong communication skills make him a standout figure in the entertainment industry. Our team spoke with Ezam Ernady of Mediacorp RIA 897, who shared his thoughts on balancing a demanding career in radio with raising four daughters. Ezam co-hosts the weekday night programme Malam Masih Muda (3M) with Azura Goh from 8 pm to 10 pm, a show featuring indie and love songs, interactive singing challenges, and heartfelt confessions from listeners. Through the programme and his personal life, Ezam demonstrates how passion and presence can coexist, both on-air and at home. Interview with Ezam Ernady of Mediacorp RIA 897 1) What is it like raising an all-girls household, and what have been the most surprising lessons? Ezam Ezam Ernady: Raising four girls is honestly a full-time experience on its own. Each of them has a completely different personality. My first born is clingy and loves singing and dancing, my second is a natural leader and very helpful, my third is the “little queen” who’s friendly and talkative, and the youngest... she just loves to eat and brings joy with her chubby energy. The most surprising lesson is how much they shape me as a father. I went in thinking I needed to lead them, but actually, they teach me patience, softness, and how to understand emotions better. In a house full of girls, you learn quickly that communication and presence matter more than anything else. 2) How do you manage time and energy between a large family and a demanding career? Ezam Ernady: To be honest, it is still a constant challenge for me. My schedule is quite packed. I send them to school in the mornings, fetch them in the afternoons, and spend the evenings preparing before heading to work for my night shift from 8pm to 11pm. Time management is my biggest challenge, but I always make it a point to be present during the pockets of time I have. Even simple moments like car rides, dinner conversations, or short playtime together matter, and I try to make the most of them. I also rely heavily on structure at home, and my wife plays a huge role in keeping the household running smoothly. 3) Can you share a moment that made you feel proud of the unique bond with your daughters? Ezam Ernady: One of my proudest moments is seeing how they bond with me through music. Whether it is singing, playing the guitar, or even the drums, we do it together and truly enjoy those moments. Another is when they draw me as a superhero, protecting and saving the family. That really hits differently. It reminds me that, in their eyes, I am more than just their father — I am their protector and role model. 4) How has having four children shaped your priorities and outlook on life? Ezam Ernady: Having four daughters has changed me completely, both emotionally and physically. Each of them has shaped me in a different way. My priorities have always been the same: family comes first. No matter how busy work gets, I always remind myself why I am doing all this in the first place. To me, success is not only about career growth, but also about being present in my children’s lives. 5) What strategies help you maintain strong family connections amidst your work commitments? Ezam Ernady: For me, it comes down to routine and intention. We have daily structures at home such as dinner time conversations, chores, study time, and playtime. Weekends are non-negotiable. We go out, visit their grandparents, and spend time with extended family. That bonding time is very important to me. Even with a tight schedule, I make sure there’s always space for connection and bonding. 6) How do you teach values or life lessons to your daughters while juggling your work schedule? Ezam Ernady: I focus on three main values: discipline, respect, and kindness. I don’t just lecture them. I will usually sit down and talk to them, especially during dinner. Communication is key in our household. I also believe in leading by example. The routines we set, like helping around the house, respecting time, and treating each other well. Those are everyday lessons for them. 7) How has parenting a larger family shaped your outlook on life, your priorities, and your resilience? Ezam Ernady: Parenting four children has definitely built my resilience. There have been tough moments, especially when some of them had to be hospitalised because of asthma they inherited from me. That was very hard for me as a parent. At the same time, those experiences have made me mentally stronger. They remind me that I need to keep going, remain steady, and always be there for them, no matter what. 8) How do you balance family responsibilities with the demands of a career in entertainment, and what advice would you give to others in similar situations? Ezam Ernady: Honestly, balancing family responsibilities and career demands is difficult, and it will never be perfect. But I believe parenting becomes easier when you choose to approach it in a way that feels manageable. Even with my busy schedule, I always make time to talk to my children, play with them, and guide them whenever I can. My advice is simple: be present. Talk to your children, play with them, and show them love and affection. They need you more than anything else, and truthfully,... --- - Published: 2026-05-18 - Modified: 2026-05-18 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/interview-with-fadli-kamsani-of-mediacorp-ria-897-balancing-family-radio-and-malay-cultural-arts/ - Categories: INTERVIEW, PARENTING/EDUCATION - Tags: Fadli Kamsani, Mediacorp RIA 897 Balancing a fast-paced media career with family life and personal passions requires focus, dedication, and heart. Fadli Kamsani, a versatile radio personality and producer-presenter at youth radio station, Mediacorp RIA 897, exemplifies this balance. Fadli began his journey in the entertainment industry after securing third place in Mediacorp Suria’s reality competition, Anugerah Skrin 2016. Since then, he has built a diverse career as a DJ, host, and actor, while remaining actively involved in Malay cultural arts, including dance, silat, and kompang. Our team spoke with Fadli Kamsani of Mediacorp RIA 897, who shared his insights on balancing a demanding career, raising three children, and maintaining a hands-on approach to fatherhood. Fadli currently co-hosts the weekday afternoon programme Ria Kruz with Amirah Yahya from 5 pm to 7 pm. The show covers engaging topics designed to spark curiosity and discussion, including youth issues, gender topics, and sports updates. Through the programme and his personal pursuits, Fadli demonstrates how passion, family, and career can coexist harmoniously. Interview with Fadli Kamsani of Mediacorp RIA 897 1) How do you ensure quality time with your three children despite a fast-paced media career? Fadli Kamsani: Whenever I have time with them, I make sure to set work aside completely. On weekdays, the time I spend with them is usually at the start of the day when I send them to school, so I only start work after they are in school. On weekends, if I do not have any shoots or gigs, I make it a point to bring them out, even if it is only for an hour. 2) Can you describe your approach to being a “hands-on” father? Fadli Kamsani: To me, being a “hands-on” father means being present and actively sharing the responsibilities with my wife. Beyond being the primary provider, I am also involved in getting the children ready and making sure the household chores are kept in check. If needed, I would never hesitate to step into the kitchen to help my wife. 3) What are the most rewarding and challenging aspects of balancing work and family life? Fadli Kamsani: The most rewarding part is definitely coming home to my little angels greeting me at the door. No matter how tough my day at work has been, their smiles are what keep me going. The most challenging part, though, is explaining to them why Daddy has to work so hard. Hahaha. It is a sacrifice that many people do not always see, but for me, that has been the hardest part. 4) How do you adjust your parenting style as your children grow and enter new stages of life? Fadli Kamsani: Go with the flow and do not be too rigid. Being open and adaptable when addressing certain situations can be very helpful. Most importantly, communication is key. One thing my wife and I have agreed on is to always stay on the same wavelength, because that is the best way for us to understand each other and manage expectations. 5) Are there moments when work conflicts with family, and how do you manage those situations? Fadli Kamsani: Always. But in these situations, having a spouse who understands what you do and why you do it is key. Her support is a major factor in helping me perform at my best. I also make it a point to check in on my wife regularly, both physically and emotionally, to make sure she is doing well, because it can get overwhelming at times. 6) How do you make time for your children and stay present, even during busy work periods? Fadli Kamsani: Time management and setting priorities are key. Whenever I get busy, any free time I have is dedicated solely to my wife and kids. Even if it is only for a couple of hours, I make sure they get the best version of me. During that time, I put everything else aside and ensure that my attention for them is always at a hundred percent and no less than that. 7) How do you maintain strong family bonds through the different stages of parenthood? Fadli Kamsani: Communication is everything. Staying in constant communication with my wife is very important to me. Sometimes, all it takes is a simple text message or a short call to maintain that strong bond. The time we spend together before and after work also matters a lot. 8) What advice would you give to fathers striving to stay actively involved in their children’s lives? Fadli Kamsani: I would definitely say to take care of your well-being first. If you have not been eating right, start now. If you have not been working out, start now. Your family deserves the best version of you, nothing less. If you are not at your best, it becomes much harder to care for your family the way you want to. So begin by looking after your own well-being, and the rest will slowly fall into place. You will become a more present dad — one who shows up consistently. You’ve got this, kings! Fadli Kamsani exemplifies a modern, hands-on father who balances a fast-paced career with family and cultural passions. His insights highlight the importance of communication, presence, and well-being, both at home and in professional life. Through his work at RIA 897 and active involvement in Malay cultural arts, Fadli inspires listeners and fellow parents alike, showing that dedication to career and family can coexist beautifully.

Set within its lush, storied grounds on Sentosa Island, the resort unveils its new Island Explorer room package, a newly refreshed family experience designed to bring together heritage, culture and nature through a child’s lens. The Island Explorer room package is a self-guided journey, encouraging young guests aged five to ten to embark on an island adventure through their own inquisitive lens. Each child will receive their very own Explorer Kit, featuring a guided journal paired with an instant-print camera, offering young explorers an interactive way to document their time at Capella Singapore. Through photographs, sketches and observations, the young explorers are encouraged to create their own collection of “Island Memories”, shaped by personal curiosity, the rhythms of the resort, and the historic stories waiting to be discovered. Set within Capella Singapore’s heritage-rich estate, once home to the Royal Artillery and now shared with peacocks, hornbills, and rich diversity of native wildlife, Island Explorer invites families to slow down and immerse themselves in the tranquil surroundings of Sentosa island. Some stories are etched into the architecture, while others unfold in fleeting encounters with nature, from the flash of blue peacock feathers to the curve of a Colonial veranda. Each experience unfolds differently, making every stay deeply personal and uniquely its own. Young explorers who complete their journey will receive a commemorative badge and certificate, a keepsake marking their time on the island. The instant-print camera and journal, included as part of the package, are theirs to take home, serving as lasting reminders of a summer shaped by discovery. Designed to complement the resort’s existing Little Stars programme, Island Explorer builds on Capella Singapore’s commitment to thoughtful family experiences. Developed in response to evolving guest preferences, Little Stars offers a series of enriching, immersive, and culturally grounded activities designed to encourage discovery through play and participation. Island Explorer, on the other hand, complements with a more independent and reflective journey, encouraging exploration at one’s own pace while nurturing creativity and storytelling. “At Capella Singapore, we are always seeking meaningful ways to bring families closer together through shared experiences. We believe a stay should offer more than just time away, it should create opportunities to connect more deeply with both the surroundings and one another. With the newly launched Island Explorer room package, families are invited to experience the island through moments that feel both enriching and effortless, where children can engage with culture and nature in ways that are imaginative, unstructured, and led entirely by their own innate curiosity,” said Johanna Dlugosch, Hotel Manager, Capella Singapore.

Renowned Las Vegas magic and illusion designer Tim Clothier also joins the Broadway creative team to help transform Willy Wonka’s fantastical factory into a world where the impossible feels possible. Amidst all the spectacle, Oliver Wong believes Charlie’s sincerity is what truly anchors the story emotionally. Throughout the musical, Charlie remains grounded despite the extraordinary world unfolding around him. His appreciation for the little things and unwavering kindness offer a strong contrast to the louder and more exaggerated personalities he encounters inside the factory. For Oliver Wong, portraying Charlie is less about performing a role and more about sharing the character’s warmth naturally with audiences. Interview with Oliver Wong on Playing Charlie Bucket Headshots for Oliver Wong. Photo by DAVE DABOUR Photography, February 10, 2026 1. Charlie Bucket is often described as the emotional heart of the story. How do you approach portraying his kindness and optimism in a way that feels natural and sincere on stage? Oliver Wong: I’m not really pretending to be kind. I want every single audience member to feel Charlie’s kindness. I like to think that I’m spreading kindness to the people in the audience, so it doesn’t feel like acting—it just feels like I’m sharing something good. I also try to enjoy the little moments, because Charlie finds happiness in small things... even something like a used chocolate wrapper feels exciting to him. 2. In a production filled with bold characters and spectacular moments, how do you ensure that Charlie’s quieter presence still stands out and connects with the audience? Oliver Wong: I think it’s Charlie’s kindness that really stands out. Even when there are big, crazy things happening on stage, I try to always stay in the moment and react as Charlie. When something crazy happens, Charlie usually has a concerned look and is taking everything in, and I try to show that to the audience. Sometimes being quieter helps, because people notice those small reactions more. 3. The story explores themes like humility, patience, and gratitude. How do these values come through in your performance without feeling overly lesson-driven? Oliver Wong: I think the fun and humor of the show make it feel less like a lesson. The audience gets to enjoy everything in the moment, and then afterwards they can think more about it and what it means. I just focus on being honest as Charlie, and if it feels real, I think the audience can feel that too. 4. The Bucket family plays an important role in shaping who Charlie is. How has working with the cast portraying his family influenced your interpretation of the character? Oliver Wong: The actors who play my family are really amazing, and they make it feel like we’re a real family on stage. We spent time getting to know each other during rehearsals in New York City and China, which helped me feel really comfortable and connected to them. I think you can see that connection on stage. It makes it easier to show how much Charlie loves them, because it feels natural and not forced. 5. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory has been loved across generations. From your perspective, what makes Charlie such a relatable and enduring character for both children and adults today? Oliver Wong: Charlie is a story about a boy who dreams big and succeeds by staying true to himself, even with all the crazy people and situations around him. He doesn’t have a lot, but he appreciates everything he does have. I think that’s something both kids and adults can relate to, no matter where they’re from. Everyone dreams about finding their own version of a golden ticket... and drinking face first from a chocolate fountain! 6. On a personal level, what do you find most meaningful or rewarding about playing Charlie? Oliver Wong: I love being able to tell Charlie’s story and spread his kindness. I love knowing that the audience might leave the theatre smiling or thinking about what really matters. Getting to be part of that is really meaningful to me. 7. This production is known for its imaginative world and large-scale stagecraft. What has been the most exciting or memorable part of being part of this production? Oliver Wong: I’ve totally lucked out being part of such an amazing cast and company. They’re always looking out for me and Cohen, who also plays Charlie, and everyone is so warm and friendly. I’ve learned a lot from them about professional theatre, and we’ve had a TON of fun along the way. 8. What would you like audiences in Singapore to take away from your portrayal... --- - Published: 2026-05-14 - Modified: 2026-05-14 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/discover-a-summer-of-treasures-at-resorts-world-sentosa-with-pop-mart-sanrio-illuminations-minions-monsters-hypebeast-and-more/ - Categories: EVENTS, PARENTING/EDUCATION - Tags: Hypebeast, Illumination’s Minions & Monsters, POP MART, Resorts World Sentosa, Sanrio, Summer of Treasures Resorts World Sentosa is turning up the fun with Summer of Treasures, a resort-wide programme running from 29 May to 30 August 2026, transforming the destination into a vibrant hang-out from day to night.

In "Legends of the Ocean", visitors can explore how the sea has shaped human imagination across cultures, from mythical creatures to familiar icons and stories that continue to influence how people understand the ocean. Local Marine Heritage: Tides of the Red Dot To connect the global story to Singapore, the exhibition features "Tides of the Red Dot," a dedicated section on Singapore’s own marine environment. This section explores local marine life, environmental challenges, and conservation efforts, for visitors to understand how ocean science connects to Singapore's maritime identity and the waters around us.

Taiwan’s leading womenswear brand iROO has taken a significant step in this direction with the launch of Fresh Cloth Delicate Fabric Spray, alongside its latest fashion showcase, The Goddess Edit Spring/Summer 2026 Collection. Together, these innovations reflect a deeper brand evolution, one that extends beyond clothing into a holistic lifestyle philosophy. We speak with Ms. Emily Huang, Chief Operating Officer of iROO International Pte Ltd, to understand the inspiration, innovation, and vision behind these developments. Read on to find out more. Interview with Emily Huang, Chief Operating Officer, iROO International Pte Ltd 1) Fresh Cloth is described as a skincare-grade solution for delicate fabrics. What inspired iROO to develop this product, and how does it reflect the brand’s philosophy of making life easier for modern women? Emily Huang: iROO has always been a brand built around women, not just how they dress, but how they live. Our core philosophy centers on the modern woman who wears many hats. Today's modern woman is also, very often, a working mother. And if there's one thing we deeply appreciate, it's just how much she carries on her shoulders every single day. She's up early to get the kids ready for school, she's navigating back-to-back meetings at work, she's mentally planning dinner while sitting in a 3pm call, and somewhere between all of that, she's trying to carve out even just a quiet moment for herself. The to-do list never truly ends — and laundry, believe it or not, is one of those invisible burdens that quietly adds to the load. She's career-driven, deeply capable, and fiercely independent, yet she's also someone who values quality, practices self-love, and refuses to compromise on the things that matter to her. That frustration is something so many women know all too well. Delicate fabrics, the kind that drape beautifully and feel luxurious, often need to be hand washed or sent for dry-cleaning: they demand time, attention, and careful handling that a busy mother and professional simply doesn't always have. And it's not just about the inconvenience. There's a real anxiety that comes with caring for pieces you love — the worry of shrinking a favourite dress, fading a delicate fabric, or damaging something irreplaceable. So many women end up either avoiding those beautiful pieces altogether on busy days, or spending precious mental energy planning around laundry schedules. That's a kind of quiet stress that we felt we could help solve. That's really where Fresh Cloth was born. We wanted to ask ourselves honestly: how can iROO give her back a little of her time? Fresh Cloth is our answer, a skincare-grade solution that lets her refresh and care for her delicate garments quickly, gently, and confidently at home, reducing frequency of laundry, lesser trips to the dry cleaner, translating to time saved for other activities, and definitely lesser worry especially for delicate garments. For us, Fresh Cloth isn't just a fabric care product, it's an extension of iROO's deepest belief: that women deserve to feel confident, cared for, and unburdened. That self-love isn't selfish, it's what allows her to show up fully, for her work, for her family, and for herself. When she looks good and feels good, everything else flows a little more easily. And that, at its heart, is what iROO has always stood for to make life easier for women. 2) Fresh Cloth features MCL Safety Shield’s Proprietary Functional Titanium Dioxide Formula. Could you explain how this formula works to protect fabrics from odours, bacteria, and viruses, while remaining safe for delicate materials like silk, cashmere, and embellished garments, noting that it is not suitable for artificial leather or suede? Emily Huang: Develop with National Lab. . Fresh Cloth was developed in exclusive collaboration with a National Laboratory in Taiwan, bringing the same premium, science-backed standards of skincare directly into the world of fabric care. At its core is MCL Safety Shield's Proprietary Functional Titanium Dioxide Formula — a breakthrough ingredient featuring nano silver particle composite titanium dioxide, fully reviewed and INCI-certified by the Personal Care Products Council (USA) as an approved cosmetic additive. When applied, the formula works by generating hydroxyl radicals (OH radicals) under visible light, which actively decompose organic pollutants on fabric surfaces — including bacteria, viruses, odours, and even formaldehyde — converting them harmlessly into water and carbon dioxide. This delivers a powerful triple-action defence: inhibiting over 10 strains of bacteria and viruses (including COVID-19, Enterovirus 71, and Influenza A) at 99. 9% efficacy, eliminating odours at their root rather than simply masking them, and suppressing the conditions that allow mould to form and spread. Its anti-static properties, derived from Cocamidopropyl Betaine and certified under Japan's JIS L1904 standard, further repel dust and particles — reducing static dramatically from 4 seconds down to just 1. 1 seconds in testing. Importantly, all decomposition byproducts are completely odourless and non-toxic, making Fresh Cloth as environmentally responsible as it is effective. What makes Fresh Cloth particularly special for the modern woman is not just what it does, but what it protects. Delicate fabrics like silk, cashmere, and embellished garments are notoriously difficult to care for as most cannot be machine-washed without risk of damage, and the repeated exposure to harsh detergents and mechanical washing causes fibres to weaken, colours to fade, and embellishments to loosen over time. By forming an invisible protective layer on the fabric surface that actively fights bacteria, odours, and mould, Fresh Cloth significantly reduces the need for frequent washing altogether. This means less “wash and tear” on your most cherished pieces, fewer costly dry-cleaning trips, and garments that genuinely last longer and look better for it, saving both time and money for busy mothers and professionals alike. It is also an eco-conscious choice, reducing water usage, energy consumption, and detergent pollution with every use. It is worth noting, however, that Fresh... --- - Published: 2026-05-11 - Modified: 2026-05-11 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/the-force-lands-on-lazada-with-first-lego-star-wars-super-brand-day-in-singapore/ - Categories: EVENTS, PARENTING/EDUCATION - Tags: Lazada, LEGO, LEGO Star Wars Super Brand Day, LEGO® Star Wars™ Star Wars fans in Singapore are in for a treat as Lazada teams up with LEGO Singapore to launch the region's first-ever LEGO Star Wars Super Brand Day on 12 May.

For many parents, finding a hotel that successfully balances comfort for adults with enjoyable experiences for children can often be a challenge. As a family of four with a 7-year-old and a 15-month-old toddler, we are always on the lookout for a family-friendly hotel in Singapore that offers both relaxation and meaningful experiences. This 3D2N riverside stay at Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel Singapore delivered a well-balanced combination of space, comfort, and thoughtfully curated dining experiences, making it feel less like a typical hotel stay and more like a meaningful family escape along the scenic Singapore River. Riverside Location and Easy Access Set along the scenic Singapore River, Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel Singapore offers a peaceful riverside escape while still remaining conveniently connected to the city. From the moment we arrived, the newly renovated lobby felt spacious and welcoming, setting a comfortable tone for the stay ahead. As parents travelling with a 7-year-old and a toddler, we especially appreciated the calm and relaxing atmosphere. Tucked away from the usual city buzz, the riverside setting created a refreshing contrast to Singapore’s fast pace, making the entire stay feel more restful and enjoyable for our family. At the same time, convenience was never compromised. Havelock MRT station is just a short walk away, making it easily accessible even when travelling with a stroller. Great World City is also within easy reach for dining, shopping, and daily essentials, while Robertson Quay offers pleasant riverside walks and a relaxed atmosphere nearby. What stood out most was how seamless everything felt. Whether heading out for meals, family activities, or simply taking a slow stroll by the river, the location made the entire stay feel easy, comfortable, and stress-free for the family. Spacious Apartment-Style Stay for Families Layout of the Serviced Apartment For our stay, we checked into the One-Bedroom serviced apartment-style accommodation within Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel Singapore, which worked especially well for a family staycation with young children. The combination of a king-size bed and sofa bed gave us the flexibility to create separate sleeping spaces, allowing parents to enjoy some quiet downtime after the kids had gone to bed. The hotel also thoughtfully assisted with setting up the sofa bed, while a baby cot was provided upon request, making the stay even more convenient for families with infants. One feature we truly appreciated was the fully equipped kitchenette tucked neatly behind cabinet doors. It added a level of convenience that is often overlooked, especially when travelling with a toddler. Having the space to prepare simple meals, make milk, or manage small daily needs made a noticeable difference to our overall stay experience. Although I have already completed my breastfeeding journey, I could not help but appreciate the practicality of having a full-sized fridge with a freezer compartment. This would be incredibly useful for parents who need to store expressed milk during their stay. Another highlight was the spacious bathroom layout, with separate wet and dry areas. The shower and toilet are thoughtfully divided, making it much easier for families to manage bath time routines, especially with young children. Overall, the layout felt comfortable, functional, and very well-suited for families seeking a more relaxing and fuss-free staycation experience. Dining Experiences Across the Stay Dining was one of the most memorable aspects of this 3D2N stay, offering variety, atmosphere, and a strong family-friendly focus throughout. What stood out most was how each dining experience felt thoughtfully designed to suit both adults and children, making mealtimes easy, relaxed, and genuinely enjoyable for the whole family. From a personal perspective, this made a big difference during the staycation. Instead of planning around meals or worrying about options for the kids, everything felt well taken care of and naturally integrated into the stay. The dining experience came with thoughtful family-friendly perks that helped make each meal more fuss-free, comfortable, and enjoyable, especially when travelling with young children. We opted for the Family Retreat package, which came with a variety of dining privileges and family-friendly benefits throughout the stay. At The Lobby Lounge, we enjoyed a relaxing afternoon tea experience featuring premium Pryce Tea selections and the hotel’s unlimited scone trolley, which quickly became a favourite for the kids. It felt like a simple yet meaningful moment where both parents and children could slow down and enjoy quality time together. The package also includes a 1-for-1 Afternoon Tea promotion, along with complimentary mini afternoon tea sets for children aged 12 and below, making the experience feel more inclusive and thoughtful for younger guests. It was a relaxed and enjoyable experience that allowed the whole family to unwind together over good food and unhurried time. Day 1: Afternoon Tea and Sakura Buffet Dinner Sakura Afternoon Tea at The Lobby Lounge The stay began with the Sakura Afternoon Tea at The Lobby Lounge. This experience was beautifully curated with Japanese-inspired flavours and presentation. It immediately set a relaxed tone for the stay. For the children, the experience was especially engaging: Complimentary mini afternoon tea set Ice cream and popcorn Relaxed seating environment It felt inclusive, allowing both adults and children to enjoy the moment together. Sakura Serenity Buffet Dinner at Food Capital Dinner at Food Capital featured the Sakura Serenity Buffet, a seasonal dining experience inspired by refined Japanese flavours. What stood out most was the relaxed pacing and wide variety of dishes, which made it easy for families to dine comfortably without feeling rushed or overwhelmed. Everything felt well-suited for both adults and children, creating a fuss-free and enjoyable dinner experience. Dining at Food Capital was also especially family-friendly, with 1-for-1 dining for adults and the added benefit where children aged 12 and below stay and eat free when accompanied by a paying adult. This made mealtimes during the staycation much more relaxed, removing the usual stress of planning where and what to eat with kids.

LAC notes that women commonly balance caregiving, work, and household demands, with rest frequently becoming the first thing sacrificed. Over time, reduced quality of rest and recovery may impact energy, mood, cognitive function, and overall wellbeing. This Mother’s Day, LAC invites a shift in perspective: to see rest not as an indulgence, but as one of the most meaningful forms of support for mothers, and a core pillar of long-term health. Prioritising quality sleep and recovery is essential in sustaining energy, supporting mood and cognitive function, and maintaining overall vitality. When supported holistically, mothers are better able to care for those around them without compromising their own wellbeing. The brand also references research indicating that women in Singapore are more likely than men to experience poor sleep. Against this backdrop, LAC encourages a shift in perspective viewing rest not as an indulgence, but as an important foundation of long-term health. LAC emphasises that prioritising quality sleep and recovery plays a key role in supporting energy, mood, cognitive function, and overall vitality, helping individuals sustain their daily responsibilities while maintaining wellbeing. In line with this focus, LAC offers science-based nutritional formulations designed to to help women recharge and stay resilient through life’s demands. LAC Women’s Mega Multi Active is a comprehensive formulation developed for active women.

Combining luxury travel with haute cuisine, this special sailing from Singapore to Melaka showcased the artistry of acclaimed Chef Tommie Lee also known as “Chef French Papa” from the Netflix series Culinary Class Wars. This milestone event reflects the cruise line’s commitment to delivering premium lifestyle experiences at sea, as it continues to redefine modern cruising in Asia. Dream Cruises itself is part of the revitalised StarDream Cruises group, offering luxury voyages across the Asia-Pacific region. As part of the invited media onboard this celebratory voyage, we had the opportunity to experience the menu firsthand, an amazing evening that blended storytelling, craftsmanship and refined flavours at sea. A Culinary Experience at Sea Guests onboard were treated to an intimate and immersive culinary experience as Chef Tommie Lee made a special appearance, sharing his journey, inspirations and passion for food in a live session. The interaction offered a deeper appreciation of the philosophy behind each dish. The highlight of the sailing was a specially curated French menu, elevated with a pairing from Veuve Clicquot. Each course reflected a balance of classic French techniques and modern finesse, creating a cohesive and refined dining journey. A Course-by-Course Journey Through French Excellence 1. Escargot Vol-au-Vent The experience began with delicate bites of escargot encased in a light, buttery vol-au-vent pastry shell, delivering a balance of richness and texture. The pastry was crisp and flaky, while the escargot was well-seasoned and tender rich yet controlled, making it a refined and well-executed start. 2. Prosciutto with Mesclun Salad This was followed by a refreshing combination of prosciutto with mesclun greens, complemented by shaved Parmesan, Kalamata olives and a bright lemon dressing. Clean and balanced, the acidity from the dressing lifted the dish nicely, preventing the prosciutto from feeling too heavy and keeping the course fresh and vibrant. 3. Bouillabaisse Maison The menu then moved into deeper flavours with a bouillabaisse maison, infused with saffron and featuring a selection of fresh seafood. The broth was aromatic and comforting, with a distinct saffron note, while the seafood remained fresh and properly cooked delivering both depth and authenticity. 4. Slow-Roasted Veal Tenderloin The main course featured slow-roasted veal tenderloin paired with foie gras and truffle roulade, accompanied by green pea mash, roasted carrot purée and a velvety port wine sauce. The veal was tender and succulent, complemented by the richness of foie gras and the earthiness of truffle, an indulgent and well-composed centrepiece. 5. Chocolate Mousse with Dulce de Leche Espuma The dining experience concluded with a chocolate mousse paired with dulce de leche espuma, offering a smooth and indulgent finish. Silky in texture, the mousse was rich without being cloying, while the espuma added a light caramel sweetness that rounded off the meal elegantly. Continuing the Celebration While Chef Tommie Lee’s onboard appearance was exclusive to this sailing, guests can continue to enjoy his specially curated menu on upcoming Genting Dream sailings from 3 May to 3 July 2026. The menu will be available at the ship’s Bistro Restaurant, priced at SG$90 nett per person, or SG$132 nett per person with wine pairing. Experiencing this anniversary sailing firsthand offered more than just a showcase of fine dining, it highlighted how thoughtfully curated moments can elevate the entire cruise journey. From Chef Tommie Lee’s engaging storytelling to the seamless pairing of cuisine and setting, the evening unfolded as a well-orchestrated experience rather than just a meal. Set against the backdrop of the open sea, each course felt intentional, building towards a cohesive narrative of flavour and technique. It is this attention to detail that reflects Dream Cruises’ direction as it marks its 10th anniversary focusing not just on luxury, but on creating memorable, immersive experiences for their guests.

Luminee Learning, developed by KiteSense, was built to solve this gap. Designed for Primary 1–6 students for English, Math, Science and Chinese, Luminee is an AI-powered learning platform that identifies exactly where a child is struggling, fixes those gaps step by step, and provides parents with clear visibility into their child’s progress — removing guesswork and bringing confidence to learning. From Practice to Real Progress At the heart of Luminee is Coach Kyu, a 24/7 AI learning companion that: • Pinpoints what a child does not understand • Guides them through step-by-step explanations and targeted practice • Adapts learning in real time based on progress • Encourages and supports students to build confidence Unlike platforms that focus on more practice or gamification alone, Luminee focuses on precision learning — helping students improve by addressing the right gaps, not just doing more work. Giving Parents Clarity and Confidence Luminee is designed not just for students, but for families. The platform provides parents with: • Clear insights into what their child has improved on • Visibility into areas that still need support • Guidance on what to focus on next This allows parents to stay involved without constant supervision — supporting the development of independent, confident learners. Built by Educators, Proven Across Families and Communities Luminee Learning was developed by a team of experienced educators and AI specialists at KiteSense. Founder and CEO Yueh Phern Tan shared: “Parents today are already doing a lot for their children, but often without enough clarity. We built Luminee to help them understand exactly what their child needs — and to guide each child step by step towards improvement. ” Since its launch in September 2025, Luminee has supported over 4,000 students across Singapore, spanning both paying families and community programmes. Luminee works with organisations including South West CDC, Yayasan MENDAKI, and SINDA to extend access to underprivileged learners. These initiatives are supported by Temasek Foundation and Quantedge Foundation, and have expanded into student care centres such as PPIS and Life Community Services Society. Structured Learning for Every Child Luminee offers two tiers designed to support different stages of learning: • Luminee Lite — Builds consistent daily learning habits through short, structured practice and immediate feedback • Luminee Premium — Provides deeper diagnosis, targeted revision, and step-by-step guidance to strengthen mastery With plans starting from $38 per month, Luminee offers a flexible, affordable complement to traditional tuition. Expanding Across Southeast Asia Following its rollout in Singapore, Luminee has expanded into Indonesia, where demand for high-quality, affordable academic support continues to grow. The company aims to bring its model of AI-powered, personalised mastery learning to families across Southeast Asia — combining adaptive technology, curriculum intelligence, and emotionally supportive coaching at scale.

Over time, this slowdown can result in changes in tone and texture, such as loss of radiance, fine lines, and wrinkles. Dermalogica Phyto Nature E² introduces a next-generation approach that combines regeneration and exfoliation to address visible signs of skin aging while supporting the skin’s natural renewal cycle. Featuring regenerative exosome technology alongside exfoliating Pumpkin Enzyme, as well as ingredients like Phyto Glycogen and Prickly Pear, the formula works to promote a brighter, smoother-looking complexion while helping to reactivate the skin’s natural surface renewal process.

While lifestyle interventions like exercise and diet remain crucial, many individuals continue to struggle with stubborn fat that won’t budge, particularly visceral fat, stored deep around internal organs. For postpartum women and adults navigating metabolic shifts in their 30s and 40s, this isn’t just a cosmetic concern, it’s a health issue. Enter BioAesthetic, a Singapore-based clinical aesthetics brand born from the 30-year legacy of Theresa Holdings. Combining holistic wellness with data-led medical rigor, BioAesthetic introduces treatments like Visceral Sculpt that go beyond surface-level slimming to target both subcutaneous and visceral fat with precision, empowering clients to understand their body at a deeper, measurable level. Understanding the Fat That Matters Many may hit their daily step goals, maintain balanced diets, and exercise consistently yet still face challenges with stubborn abdominal fat. The distinction lies in the type of fat they carry: Subcutaneous fat sits just beneath the skin and can be pinched, commonly appearing on the arms, thighs, or abdomen. Visceral fat, however, is hidden deep inside the abdomen, surrounding organs like the liver and intestines. Despite a slim external appearance, individuals can carry high levels of visceral fat, which is linked to metabolic concerns such as insulin resistance and cardiovascular strain. Recognising this gap between appearance and internal health, BioAesthetic leverages FDA-approved technologies and a medical-grade Body Analysis System to provide clients with an accurate, data-driven understanding of their body composition. This enables measurable progress tracking and personalised treatment plans addressing fat that is otherwise resistant to conventional methods. Who Benefits Most? The treatment resonates with two main client groups: Postpartum women, who often experience stubborn abdominal fat despite exercise and diet. Adults in their 30s to 50s, navigating metabolic shifts that affect fat distribution. Founded by Ken and Sandra Koh, second-generation heirs to the Theresa Holdings legacy, BioAesthetic has invested S$1. 5 million to pivot from traditional salon culture into clinical aesthetics. Their approach focuses on transparency, measurable outcomes, and empowering clients to bridge the gap between lifestyle efforts and visible results. Clients’ journey at BioAesthetic starts with a full-body analysis to measure not just weight but visceral fat, muscle mass, and other metabolic markers. The experience is designed to feel like a guided health consultation rather than a conventional slimming session, with treatments tailored to each client’s unique physiology and lifestyle. By shifting the focus from “bouncing back” to rebuilding and recalibrating, especially for postpartum women or those facing age-related metabolic changes, BioAesthetic emphasises long-term health, resilience, and sustainable transformation over temporary aesthetic fixes. To gain deeper insights into the challenges of stubborn fat and the innovative solutions BioAesthetic offers, our team spoke with founders Ken and Sandra Koh. They shared their perspectives on visceral fat, the data-led approach that sets BioAesthetic apart, and how expectations around body recovery are evolving in today’s wellness landscape. Read on to find out more from their full interview. Interview with Ken and Sandra Koh, Founders of BioAesthetic Q1) Visceral fat is increasingly being discussed in clinical and wellness circles. How do you explain the difference between visceral fat and subcutaneous fat to clients in a way that is both accurate and relatable? Ken and Sandra Koh: In simple terms, there are two main types of body fat, and they differ based on where they are stored. Subcutaneous fat sits just beneath the skin. It is the softer fat you can see and pinch, commonly found around areas like the arms, thighs, or the surface of the abdomen. Visceral fat, however, is stored deeper inside the abdomen, surrounding internal organs such as the liver and intestines. Because of this, it is not visible or easy to feel. A helpful way to think about it is that subcutaneous fat is on the outside, while visceral fat is hidden within the body. Someone may look relatively slim but still carry visceral fat. This distinction matters because visceral fat is more closely linked to how the body functions internally. Higher levels have been associated with metabolic concerns such as insulin resistance, cardiovascular strain, and other long-term health risks. That said, it is not about eliminating fat entirely, but about maintaining a balanced level and understanding that not all fat behaves the same way. This is why health discussions today focus not just on weight, but also on fat distribution and overall body composition. Q2) Many individuals feel frustrated when they “look healthy” externally but are told they may still carry higher internal fat levels. How do you address this disconnect and help clients understand their overall health? Ken and Sandra Koh: That frustration is actually very valid — because for a long time, we’ve been conditioned to equate “looking slim” with “being healthy. ” But the truth is, health is far more nuanced than what we see on the surface. What we’re often talking about here is hidden fat, especially visceral fat — the fat stored around internal organs. Unlike subcutaneous fat (the kind you can pinch), visceral fat isn’t visible, but it plays a much bigger role in long-term health risks like metabolic issues, hormonal imbalance, and inflammation. So when someone says, “But I’m not overweight,” and still has higher internal fat levels — it’s not a contradiction. It’s simply that aesthetic appearance ≠ internal health. How we help clients bridge that gap 1. Instead of focusing on the number on the scale, we help clients understand: - Body fat percentage - Visceral fat levels - Muscle mass vs fat ratio You can be slim outside, but metabolically stressed inside — and that’s the part we want to take care of early. 2. We make the invisible, visible Using body composition scans or visual analogies helps clients see what’s going on internally. Because once they understand it, the motivation becomes intrinsic — not driven by vanity, but by longevity and wellbeing.... --- - Published: 2026-04-30 - Modified: 2026-04-30 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/pregnancy-postpartum-skin-health-an-interview-with-dr-angeline-yong-founder-of-sskins-medispa/ - Categories: INTERVIEW, PARENTING/EDUCATION, STYLE/BEAUTY - Tags: Dermatological, Dermatology, Dr. Angeline Yong, Motherhood, Postpartum, Pregnancy, Skin Health, SkinCeuticals, SSKINS Medispa Pregnancy and motherhood bring about profound physical and emotional changes and for many women, that includes noticeable shifts in skin and hair health. From hormonal acne and pigmentation to postpartum hair loss, these changes can often feel unexpected and difficult to manage without the right guidance. In Singapore, where heat and humidity further influence skin conditions, having access to expert, science-backed advice becomes even more essential. At the forefront of dermatological care is Dr. Angeline Yong, founder of Angeline Yong Dermatology and SSKINS Medispa, a holistic wellness destination developed in collaboration with SkinCeuticals. With over 20 years of medical experience, Dr. Yong combines clinical expertise with a holistic philosophy that beauty begins with well-being. Through SSKINS Medispa, she aims to bridge the gap between medical-grade treatments and a restorative, client-focused experience particularly for busy women and mothers seeking effective yet practical solutions. We spoke with Dr. Yong to gain deeper insights into pregnancy and postpartum skin and hair concerns, safe treatment approaches, and the lifestyle habits that support long-term skin health. Read on to find out more. Interview with Dr. Angeline Yong, Founder of Angeline Yong Dermatology & SSKINS Medispa 1. Many women experience unexpected skin changes during pregnancy. From a dermatologist’s perspective, what are the most common skin concerns you see in pregnant patients, and what causes them? Dr. Angeline Yong: From a dermatologist’s perspective, the most common skin changes during pregnancy are driven by hormonal shifts, increased blood circulation, and the physical stretching of the skin. Firstly, hyperpigmentation, or melasma (or what is known as the mask of pregnancy), is very common, affecting up to 50 – 70% of women. Patients typically notice darker patches on the cheeks, forehead, or upper lip. This is due to elevated estrogen and progesterone levels stimulating pigment production, and it is often worsened by sun exposure. Secondly, acne may either develop for the first time or worsen during pregnancy. This is largely due to increased oil production triggered by hormonal changes, particularly androgens, leading to clogged pores and inflammation. Thirdly, stretch marks, or striae gravidarum, occur in up to 90% of pregnancies. These result from rapid skin stretching combined with hormonal effects that weaken collagen and elastin, causing visible lines on areas such as the abdomen, thighs, and breasts. In addition, many women experience increased skin sensitivity and dryness. This is linked to changes in the skin barrier and immune response, which can make the skin more reactive or prone to conditions like eczema. We also commonly see vascular changes, such as spider veins, development of cherry angiomas, or facial redness. These are caused by increased blood volume and dilation of blood vessels under the influence of estrogen. Lastly, some women experience what is often called the “pregnancy glow. ” This is due to increased blood flow and oil production, although it is not universal. Overall, these changes are very common and generally temporary, but certain conditions—such as melasma—may persist and require treatment after pregnancy. 2. Pregnancy acne can be frustrating, especially when treatment options are limited. What are some safe and effective ways expectant mothers can manage breakouts? Dr. Angeline Yong: Pregnancy acne can indeed be challenging, as treatment options must be carefully selected for safety. The approach I typically recommend is to focus on gentle, consistent care with pregnancy-safe actives. Firstly, a simple and non-irritating skincare routine is key. Use a mild cleanser twice daily to control excess oil without stripping the skin, and avoid over-cleansing, which can worsen inflammation. Secondly, there are a few ingredients that are considered safe and effective. • Azelaic acid is one of the most reliable options—it helps to reduce inflammation, unclog pores, and brighten post-acne marks and reduce post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. • Niacinamide can help regulate oil production, calm redness and support the skin barrier. • Low-strength alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) such as glycolic acid, mandelic acid and even low-strength beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs) such as salicylic acid when used as spot treatment or as a cleanser, can be safe in pregnancy. • Topicals antibiotic gels or creams such as clindamycin or erythromycin gel for inflamed acne papules and pustules can be used safely. This may however need to be obtained with a prescription from a doctor. Thirdly, keep the skin well-hydrated. A lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturiser helps maintain the skin barrier, which is often compromised during pregnancy and can otherwise trigger more breakouts. Sun protection is also essential. Daily broad-spectrum sunscreen helps prevent post-inflammatory pigmentation, which can be more pronounced during pregnancy. Equally important is knowing what to avoid. Ingredients such as retinoids, high-dose salicylic acid, and certain oral medications are not recommended during pregnancy. Finally, for more persistent or inflammatory acne, it is best to consult a dermatologist. There are prescription options, such as certain topical antibiotics or medical grade azelaic acid, that can be safely tailored to the patient. Overall, the goal is to manage acne effectively while protecting both mother and baby, using safe, evidence-based options and avoiding overly aggressive treatments. 3. Postpartum hair loss is something many new mothers worry about. Could you explain why it happens, how long it typically lasts, and when someone should seek professional help? Dr. Angeline Yong: Postpartum hair loss is very common, and I always reassure patients that it is temporary and part of the body’s natural reset after pregnancy. Why it happens? During pregnancy, higher estrogen levels keep more hair in the growth phase, so women tend to shed less. After delivery, hormone levels drop, and those retained hairs shift into the shedding phase all at once. This leads to noticeable hair fall, which we call telogen effluvium. How long it lasts? Shedding usually starts around 2 to 3 months after delivery, may peak at about 3 to 4 months, and gradually improves. Most women see recovery by around 6 to 12 months postpartum as the hair cycle normalises. When to seek help? I would advise seeing a dermatologist if the hair loss is very heavy, persists beyond a year, or if there are other symptoms... --- - Published: 2026-04-29 - Modified: 2026-04-30 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/mothers-day-with-goldheart-chen-yixin-and-xiang-yun-celebrate-the-bond-between-mother-and-daughter/ - Categories: EVENTS, PARENTING/EDUCATION, STYLE/BEAUTY - Tags: —这一次换我宠你, 999 Gold Gu Fa Jin collection, Chen Yixin, Goldheart Jewelry, Star Promise Diamonds, Xiang Yun Goldheart Jewelry unveils its Mother’s Day campaign, “To Mom, With Love —这一次，换我宠你”, a heartfelt tribute to the women whose love, strength, and guidance shape our lives in the most meaningful ways.

Whether it is a student overwhelmed by deadlines, a working adult caught in the cycle of hustle culture, a family seeking moments of real connection, or a senior looking for community and movement, Pause & Play is an open invitation to press pause, and then press play. "At Timezone, we have always believed that play has the power to bring people together and lift the everyday," said Ms Jacquline Ong, Head of Marketing, Timezone Singapore. "Pause & Play is our reminder that joy does not need to be planned or elaborate. It can be as simple as stepping away for an hour, laughing with the people around you, and leaving feeling just a little lighter. " Everyone Presses Pause Differently. Everyone Can Press Play. At the heart of the campaign is the idea of intergenerational play, that the need to pause and reconnect cuts across every stage of life. A student putting down her phone. A father challenging his child to a basketball shootout. Colleagues rediscovering their competitive sides over an arcade game. Seniors moving and laughing together. Pause & Play celebrates all of it. The campaign spans three forms of play across Timezone's venues islandwide: • Physical Play — Basketball, ColorGrid, music games and more • Creative Play — Connect 4, Animal Kaiser and other imaginative experiences • Social Play — Attraction games, shooting games and group favourites Introducing the Pause & Play Pack: $10 for 10 Games To mark the campaign launch and make play more accessible than ever, Timezone Singapore will release an exclusive Pause & Play Pack — $10 for 10 games, valid across all game categories. The next weekend is from 2 – 3 May (Saturday & Sunday) at Westgate, Northpoint City and Our Tampines Hub limited to the first 1,000 packs per venue With games available from just $1 each, the Pause & Play Pack offers one of the most accessible entry points into a full Timezone experience — designed to lower the barrier and encourage more people to show up, step away, and play together. Calling All Companies: The Timezone Corporate Challenge Pause & Play is not just for families and individuals, Timezone Singapore is also extending the challenge to the workplace. As part of the campaign, Timezone is introducing the Timezone Corporate Challenge, a first-of-its-kind inter-company competition designed to encourage working adults to step away from their desks, let loose and go head-to-head against colleagues and rival companies in a friendly, high energy face-off. Teams will go head-to-head in a five-game showdown featuring crowd favourites such as NBA Hoops, Skee-Ball, Color Grid, Driving Games and Air Hockey. Companies must win at least three out of five games to advance, with each round bringing fresh matchups and bragging rights. Organisations interested in taking on the reigning champions can express their interest via Timezone Singapore’s social channels, where selected teams will be invited to participate in upcoming rounds. At the end of each month, the top-performing company will be crowned Monthly Champion and awarded a hosted team-building experience at Timezone worth over SGD1,500*, reinforcing the campaign’s message that meaningful connection and shared moments of play can be just as valuable in the workplace as they are outside of it. *Terms and Conditions Apply A Campaign Built for Singapore Pause & Play will run across April, May and June 2026, with activations extending beyond Timezone's venues and into the communities where Singaporeans live and work. Timezone Singapore continues to position itself as the go-to destination for birthday parties, family gatherings and corporate team bonding — spaces where people can pause from the demands of everyday life and experience genuine, joyful connection through play. --- - Published: 2026-04-29 - Modified: 2026-04-29 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/discover-a-new-era-of-artisanal-cakes-and-bakes-from-singapore-marriott-tang-plaza-hotel/ - Categories: DINING - Tags: Singapore Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel Through every stage of life, one thing remains the same – we celebrate with cake.

This narrative traces the evolution of Malay identities in Singapore and examines how the Singaporean Malay community’s connections to both a multicultural society and the wider Malay world have shaped its unique identity. The reopening marks a significant milestone in MHC’s ongoing commitment to celebrating the richness and diversity of the Malay world. It invites visitors from all walks of life to step into the revamped Centre to reflect on the cultural inheritance of the Malay community here, and the future of the Malay identity in Singapore. MHC’s relaunch follows recent announcements on the expansion of MHC’s role and capabilities, to strengthen its role as a cultural anchor within Kampong Gelam and enhance its position as a centre for Malay heritage in Singapore. These include enhancing placemaking efforts in the precinct, of which the Reopening Festival is the first step towards doing so. Dr Norshahril Saat, Chairman of the Malay Heritage Foundation, said, “MHC has continually strived to present Malay heritage in ways that feel relevant and resonant to contemporary audiences. This revamp is the culmination of years of hard work, enriched by invaluable community input and contributions, to ensure that the stories told honour the depth, diversity and dynamic nature of Malay cultural heritage. With MHC’s expanded role and mandate, the Centre is well-placed to serve as a nexus for the Malay community in Singapore, and a cultural anchor for the Kampong Gelam precinct. As we embark on this new chapter, we look forward to welcoming one and all to visit, partner and collaborate with us. ” An immersive journey through six thematic spaces Visitors can explore the evolution of Malay communities through MHC’s six permanent galleries. It will feature 279 artefacts, with a quarter loaned by the community. Through a journey across time from 19th-century Singapore to imagining the possibilities of the future, visitors are encouraged to contemplate on what it means to be Malay in Singapore and how this identity continues to evolve with time. The six gallery themes are: ● Gallery 1: “We are Playing Relatives! ” explores the theme of kinship formation in Singapore and Riau-Lingga; ● Gallery 2: An Era of Changing Kings examines the complex face of the Malay peninsula and Singapore in the early 20th century; ● Gallery 3: Journeying to Settling explores the cultural rite of passage of migration; ● Gallery 4: City of Dreams: Making A Mark explores the changing visibility and roles of Malay women in the 1950s and 1960s; ● Gallery 5: Our Living Heritage explores how Malay traditions, memories, and values are passed down, adapted, and sustained within families and in everyday life; and ● Gallery 6: We+ Heritage encourages visitors to consider the future of the Malay identity in Singapore. The refreshed galleries highlight the rich tapestry of Malay heritage with broadened representation across Malay sub-ethnic groups through material culture, language and writing systems. Visitors can encounter the diversity of Malay heritage, including the Javanese, Baweanese, Bugis, Banjar, Minangkabau, and Orang Pulau communities. The refreshed experience also introduces a wider cast of Perintis (pioneers), both familiar and newly featured. Their contributions and legacies are showcased with new perspectives, shedding light on lesser-known facets of their lives. Zubir Said's mentorship of younger musicians after composing Majulah Singapura, and Yusof Ishak's role as co-founder of Utusan Melayu in 1939 — a key platform for socio-political discourse that trained figures like journalists and editors before his presidency — these stories offer a more nuanced look and understanding of how individuals have shaped the community and nation. The refreshed content also places a stronger spotlight on Malay women, recognising their contributions to education, literature, and the arts, as well as the challenges they faced in forging their own paths. Visitors can learn more about figures such as the first known woman pilgrim broker Hajah Maimunah, the first Malay woman radio announcer Zahrah Za’ba, and cultural innovators like Nona Asiah and Siti Radhiah, whose stories offer inspiring insights into resilience, creativity, and leadership. Threading through the galleries are the Corridors of Cultural Memories, which offer intimate glimpses into the Malay community’s living heritage: everyday life, traditions, and shared histories. For the first time, newly commissioned works by local Malay artists are woven into the spaces, adding contemporary interpretations that extend the narrative, and present heritage through a fresh lens. More information on the artworks can be found here. MHC Reopening Festival: Pesta Pecah Panggung — Transcending Boundaries To commemorate this milestone, MHC will be presenting a Reopening Festival titled Pesta Pecah Panggung — Transcending Boundaries. From 25 April to 3 May 2026, the festival will bring to life the narratives of the galleries by highlighting the richness of Malay heritage in Singapore and its deep connections across the region. The festival will be split into two thematic weekends that parallel MHC’s new narrative, From the Region to Home. The first, themed "Exploring the Malay World”, will showcase the diversity and shared heritage of the Malay world, while the second is themed "A Home for Our Community” and unpacks what it means to be Malay in Singapore. With over 50 programmes lined up by more than 60 partners, visitors can look forward to performances, installations, workshops, and community programmes running from day to night. More details on the programmes can be found here, and interested members of the public can register for programmes here. Highlights include: ● Pecah Panggung Parade that features over 300 community partners who will present themed pushcarts and cultural performances for all to get into the festive spirit; ● Kota Impian: Modern Women which spotlights Singapore’s pioneering Malay women in a musical-theatre production, produced and performed by an all-female ensemble; ● Wajah & Bayang: Nusantara Arts Showcase, a special showcase curated by the MHC team, will bring... --- - Published: 2026-04-22 - Modified: 2026-04-22 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/minecraft-experience-villager-rescue-arrives-in-singapore-at-mandai-wildlife-reserve/ - Categories: EVENTS, PARENTING/EDUCATION - Tags: Mandai Wildlife Reserve, Minecraft, Minecraft Experience, Villager Rescue Get ready, Minecraft fans!

The Singapore International Festival of Arts (SIFA), Singapore’s pinnacle annual performing arts festival organised by Arts House Group and commissioned by the National Arts Council, returns from 15 to 30 May with a vibrant constellation of performances, installations and encounters from epic productions to engaging, participatory works. Led by the call-to-action “Let’s Play! ”, SIFA 2026 invites audiences to explore, experiment, engage and be inspired by the arts. Soak in the Festival vibes at the iconic Festival Village, which makes its return this edition. Free performances, public installations and communal spaces featuring local artists such as The Observatory, The Theatre Practice and Off Root Theatrics welcome festivalgoers from dusk to dawn, on the Festival grounds and beyond. This year, SIFA brings two large-scale and high-impact artistic experiences from the Festival Village to Nexus, Punggol Digital District, enthralling the community with a soaring aerial performance featuring artists suspended 25 feet in the air, and a speculative theatrical procession full of colour, texture, movement and melody. Local commissioned productions and international works take the stage to bring together a cross collaboration of cultures and disciplines. From spotlighting homegrown cultural icons such as Jacintha Abisheganaden and Dick Lee, and the reimagining of classics such as Ibsen’s Hedda Gabler by the National Theater Company of Korea, and Hamlet by Peruvian company Teatro La Plaza and its cast of actors with Down syndrome, to dance-based productions that blur the lines of reality through holographic technology and stunning stage illusions, SIFA 2026 opens up multiple pathways and platforms for audiences to rediscover the joy and significance of coming together through art. From immersive light installations to roving performances and hands-on workshops, the Festival encourages movement and participation, inviting families to engage with the arts in imaginative and unexpected ways. Visitors can wander through a buzzing Festival Village, a vibrant open-air hub that is as engaging for kids as it is nostalgic for parents.

Family-friendly highlights include: The Lighthouse by Patch Theatre (Ticketed): Designed for children and their families, this immersive experience invites audiences to journey through a series of interconnected rooms that explore the many wonders of light. Blending art, science and play, the production encourages visitors to experiment and discover how light shapes the way we see the world. A Light Between Rains by Off Root Theatrics (Free): A roving, multisensory performance that transforms Empress Lawn into a vibrant landscape of colour, sound and movement. With walking theatre and community workshops, the work draws inspiration from the five natural elements to create a multisensory encounter for audiences.

From 9 April to 17 May 2026, Singapore’s premier luxury shopping destination will be transformed into a multi-sensory space where immersive art installations, new retail discoveries and exclusive rewards await. Photo credit: Paragon (Outfit: Silk crepe shirt/blazer with monili, dégradé skirt in cotton and silk fil coupé, Palladio silver earrings — Brunello Cucinelli; Furniture: Velvet Lady B Chair — Roche Bobois) Blooming Imagination: Where art meets the decadence of chocolate At the heart of this Spring/Summer season is Blooming Imagination, Paragon’s collaboration with internationally acclaimed chef-artist and chocolatier, Janice Wong. From 9 April to 3 May 2026, the Main Atrium will be transformed into a dreamlike chocolate garden, presenting Singapore’s largest edible art experience. The showcase is also set to enter the Singapore Book of Records as the largest art installation made of chocolate, bringing together art, design and gastronomy in a multi-sensory world of discovery. Inspired by the natural geometry of blooms, Blooming Imagination draws from floral forms such as the radial daisy, clustered blossoms and rosettes, reinterpreted through Janice Wong’s distinctive artistic lens. Crafted using 800kg of chocolate, each element is meticulously placed by hand, forming intricate patterns that envelop the walls and ceilings of three immersive tunnels. Built exclusively for Paragon, the installation transforms these organic motifs into a striking edible landscape, where no two pieces are alike, and every detail reflects a celebration of craftsmanship, precision and imagination. The installation unfolds across three immersive tunnels, each inspired by a distinct style from Janice Wong’s celebrated work, spanning wall murals, tablescapes and standing sculptures. Visitors are invited into shifting landscapes of texture, colour and form, where sculptural chocolate creations blur the boundaries between edible and artistic. Amid Orchard Road’s fast-paced rhythm, Blooming Imagination offers a rare moment of pause and an invitation to slow down and engage the senses and rediscover a sense of curiosity and wonder. Lending an air of French refinement to the Blooming Imagination installation, Christofle curates a bespoke visual merchandising display that places the Maison's celebrated silverware and porcelain in the company of Janice Wong's handcrafted bon bons. Taking centre stage is the Malmaison Riviera collection, a sun-drenched homage to Mediterranean living that marries vibrant hand-drawn porcelain pieces with the Maison's signature mirror-polished silver. Founded in Paris in 1830, Christofle has spent nearly two centuries dressing the grandest tables in the world, from royal residences to the gilded halls of the Paris Opera. Here at Paragon, that storied heritage meets whimsical edible art in a display that is altogether indulgent, poetic and unforgettable. Entry to the Blooming Imagination installation is complimentary and open to all shoppers. Exclusive for Paragon Club Members Recently enhanced to elevate the retail experience through a refined suite of rewards, exclusive privileges and curated lifestyle benefits, Paragon Club is the loyalty programme of Paragon. The programme comprises four distinct membership tiers - Premier, Prestige, Platinum and Pinnacle, each thoughtfully designed to offer progressively enhanced benefits attuned to members’ lifestyles. Through the Paragon Club app, members enjoy seamless access to a world of privileges, where points may be earned and redeemed for premium rewards, exclusive e-Vouchers and invitations to bespoke experiences.

Pinnacle members enjoy complimentary access to this experience, with no minimum spend required. On weekends, members can revel in chocolate painting sessions available via in-app points redemption, offering a sensorial encounter that artfully blends creativity and indulgence. New openings: A curated expression of style, craft and wellbeing This Spring/Summer, Paragon welcomes an exciting lineup of new and refreshed tenant offerings, spanning luxury fashion, heritage craftsmanship and wellness-led dining. Jil Sander’s first in Southeast Asia boutique at Paragon embodies modern sophistication through its commitment to purity of design and refined tailoring, with collections shaped by precision, restraint and a considered play on contrast under Creative Director Simone Bellotti. Marni, with its flagship boutique at Paragon, presents an immersive retail environment where form and function converge, articulated through a distinctive architectural language, tactile materiality and a sensorial interplay of finishes that reflect the House’s contemporary, art-driven identity. Beyond fashion, Maison Kuhn & Komor offers a world of collectible treasures and fine jewellery rooted in cultural heritage and craftsmanship, while Ultimate Midas Meal makes its exclusive debut at Paragon, introducing a wellness-focused dining experience centred on nourishment and intentional living. Each dish is thoughtfully enhanced with Omega-3 and collagen peptides, transforming every meal into an investment in long-term health and nourishment. Ikebana Exhibition: Everlasting friendship and love through flowers From 7 to 17 May 2026, Ikebana International Singapore Chapter 135 will showcase an Ikebana Exhibition in celebration of 60 years of Singapore–Japan diplomatic relations (SJ60), together with the heartfelt occasion of Mother’s Day. This special event honours both enduring friendship and the beauty of maternal love through flowers. Themed “Everlasting Friendship Through Flowers”, it will exhibit blossoms of joy with haikus expressing love, gratitude, and appreciation. One can also look forward to Hana Musubi—an art form where kimono obis are tied into floral designs presented by The Kimono Consultant Association (Tokyo), and 10 kimonos with the floral obis will be showcased for the first time in Singapore. A season to pause, create, and reconnect “This Spring/Summer, we present a season designed to ignite the imagination, from the extraordinary world of Janice Wong’s edible art to the contemplative beauty of Ikebana. Each visit is thoughtfully curated to reveal the unexpected, awaken curiosity, and leave our guests with a sense of joy and wellbeing,” said Jaylyn Ong, Managing Director, Straits Retail Property Management Services Pte Ltd, a subsidiary of Cuscaden Peak Investments Private Limited and property manager of Paragon.

Set beneath John Portman’s skylit atrium, Tea Lounge offers a refined setting for a traditional English-style afternoon tea. Guests can enjoy a classic and elegant three-tier presentation featuring delicate finger sandwiches, warm scones served with preserves and cream, and an assortment of pastries, all paired with a curated selection of teas. For this special edition, fine French chocolaterie Valrhona is thoughtfully woven throughout the menu. Pastries showcase Valrhona’s signature couvertures, including the new Matcha Inspiration, while savoury creations highlight chocolate in unexpected ways, such as a mushroom quiche finished with dark chocolate and served from the trolley. A warm sweet risotto, prepared à la minute, is also available with a choice of chocolate. The weekday afternoon tea (Monday to Friday, 12pm to 5pm) stays true to tradition, complemented by a unique tea blending ritual developed with homegrown Gryphon Tea Company, allowing guests to create their own blends, alongside teas shaped by local ingredients and preferences. On weekends, the experience expands into a more indulgent high tea, served in two seatings (12pm–2:15pm and 3pm–5:15pm). This elevated spread reflects Singapore’s diverse dining culture, featuring a wider selection of savoury dishes, local favourites and desserts. The selection extends into warmer, more robust flavours, from laksa and Malaysian beef rendang to satay and roasted meats, with a gravlax bar and live carving served through the afternoon. Chocolate continues through the pastries and desserts, appearing across Valrhona creations and familiar sweets. Tea, coffee, and Valrhona chocolate served hot or iced are included, with a selection of chocolate-based cocktails available. We recently visited Tea Lounge at Conrad Singapore Orchard to try the weekday Art of Chocolate afternoon tea, and it turned out to be a lovely, unhurried experience. The space feels bright and airy, making it easy to settle in for a relaxed afternoon. The selection leans towards a classic afternoon tea, but with a few thoughtful touches. We enjoyed how the savoury items were light yet satisfying, and the scones arrived warm with a good texture. One standout for us was the quiche, which had a subtle depth of flavour that made it more interesting than expected. The addition of a warm dish during the session also made the overall experience feel more complete and comforting. As this set is done in collaboration with Valrhona, the chocolate elements were thoughtfully integrated without being overwhelming. The desserts were well-balanced and not overly sweet, with each item offering something distinct. Service was smooth and attentive throughout, and we never felt rushed. Overall, it’s a refined yet approachable afternoon tea, ideal if you’re looking to enjoy something a little special and relax over a leisurely afternoon.

The tournament will feature a host of high-profile clubs from the English Premier League, Germany’s Bundesliga, Brazil’s Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A, the J-League, the Chinese Super League, and Liga Super Malaysia. Following a successful debut in 2025, the event will once again spotlight Singapore as a key sporting hub in Asia, with elite clubs such as Borussia Dortmund, Leicester City, Coventry City, Queens Park Rangers, and Hashtag United facing off against regional heavyweights Shanghai Shenhua, PERSIB and Yokohama F. Marinos. Meanwhile, Brazilian clubs Corinthians and Vasco da Gama will bring some samba flair! Wes Morgan, former Leicester City captain and 2016 Premier League winner, who returns with the Leicester City Masters team following their 2025 Singapore victory, shared, “Singapore, last year, was a great location and experience. The players were buzzing to travel, meet up again, and do what we love: hyper playing good, competitive football. The 7-a-side format is really enjoyable. It's important to be brave at the back, comfortable one-on-one, and ready to adapt. We have defenders getting up front, strikers dropping into midfield, and everyone was flexible, looking to create chances and wanting to win. ” Faster Football Singapore 2026 will feature more than 350 players, representing 36 clubs from around the world. Competing on a full-size pitch, the festival will see 95 fast-paced matches, each played in 7-minute halves. “With an exciting line-up of Faster Football Men's, Women's, and Masters competitions, it means there's something for the whole family. Fans love the format. Four games are played every hour, and we are guaranteed incredible match-ups with European and South American powerhouses competing against the region's biggest names. Where else can you see Singapore legends like Sharil Ishak, Khairul Amri, Lionel Lewis and Daniel Bennett face off against Borussia Dortmund’s Legends, and then 15 minutes later you could be watching Aleks Duric and Isa Halim lining up opposite a Premier League All Star team? ” said Dom Lane, CEO of Faster Football. Beyond the matches, Faster Football will transform Our Tampines Hub into a vibrant festival of family fun. Fans can look forward to player meet-and-greets and a lively mix of food, drinks, and entertainment celebrating local culture. Singapore football icon Abbas Saad, who famously scored a hat-trick to help Singapore win the Malaysia Cup, commented, “It's one of the highlights of my year; we all love this tournament. World-class talent at a world-class venue with Singapore in the spotlight. The fact that Faster Football will be held just one week after the World Cup Finals means everyone will be fully dialled in for an amazing festival of football. ” Faster Football was first launched in Singapore in July 2025 at Jalan Besar Stadium under the Soccer7sSeries banner. High-flying Coventry City won the Men’s Tournament, Shanghai Shenhua were crowned Women’s champions, and Leicester City won the Master’s competition. The event was broadcast globally, with over 30 hours of live coverage across more than 200 territories via DAZN, co-streamers, and competing clubs’ digital channels, attracting over 2. 5 million viewers on YouTube. It also generated more than 90 million social media views and 200,000 new subscribers and followers to Faster Football’s channels.

Every new Al Bronzo shape is created with one clear taste goal in mind: to maximise flavour in every bite. Produced using a traditional, patented bronze extrusion method known as Lavorazione Grezza and crafted with micro-engravings, Al Bronzo pasta carries distinctive geometry, ridges, and calibrated thickness. This cumulates to a distinctive rough, porous texture that allows sauces to cling effortlessly. Now, every strand, ridge and curve of pasta can deliver richer experiences even for simpler recipes as the pasta can enhance the taste for even lighter emulsions or oil-based sauces, beyond red and white sauces found commonly in Italian cuisine. Al Bronzo is made using carefully selected durum wheat, expertly milled into high‑quality semolina with a protein content exceeding 14%. This high protein quality contributes to the pasta’s firm texture and elasticity, resulting in a consistently satisfying al dente finish. The selected grains also give the pasta its naturally vibrant amber hue that brightens up any pasta dish. As such, besides providing extraordinary sauce retention, Al Bronzo pasta offers exceptional cooking resistance and consistent texture. “A great pasta dish is all about balance – the right texture, the right bite, and the way it carries the sauce,” said Chef Andrea Tranchero, Executive Chef at Barilla APAC. “The unique rough texture of the Al Bronzo pasta acts like a canvas, gripping every drop of sauce so that each mouthful is as flavourful as intended. Al Bronzo is designed for people who love to cook, share and take pleasure in the details on every pasta dish, creating a more complete and enjoyable meal experience. ” A New Iconic Look The Barilla Al Bronzo range features four classic pasta shapes – Spaghetti, Linguine, Penne Rigate, and Fusilli. Each shape is carefully designed with precise thicknesses and contours to complement different sauces and preparations. The Al Bronzo range features a new iconic red packaging The Barilla Al Bronzo range will feature a new premium deep red shade and a transparent window to highlight the pasta’s distinctive rough texture. Moving away from traditional boxes, the new larger, refined flexible bag offers an elevated visual and tactile experience that highlights the pasta’s distinctive texture. Enjoy Barilla Al Bronzo in Singapore Starting today, the Barilla Al Bronzo series will be available at all FairPrice Finest, FairPrice Xtra outlets and selected FairPrice outlets. At launch, pasta lovers can purchase the Barilla Al Bronzo pasta at a promotional price of $3. 65 each (U. P. $4. 25). While stocks last. T&Cs apply.

It nurtures the microbiome barrier to rebalance the skin’s ecosystem, fortifies the immune barrier to regulate the skin’s natural defence response, and reinforces the physical barrier to regenerate the skin, lock in moisture, and enhance its natural protection. When these barriers are disrupted by environmental stress, lifestyle habits or skin concerns such as acne, redness or sensitivity, skin can become fragilised, leaving it dehydrated, reactive, and more vulnerable to everyday stressors. The CICA DAILY range steps in as the everyday barrier booster, formulated by dermatologists for all skin types, from dry and combination to oily, sensitive, and mature. It is also fragrance-free and alcohol-free, making it suitable even for the most delicate skin. Acting like a protective “bandage” for fragile skin, the range works across the three essential barriers — physical, immune and microbiome — to restore comfort and resilience. The range is powered by Uriage’s 10. 5% Thermal-Biotic Complex, combining the soothing benefits of Uriage Thermal Water with inulin, a natural prebiotic that helps rebalance the skin’s microbiome. The formulas are further enriched with centella asiatica, known for its repairing properties, vitamin B5, which helps soothe and strengthen the skin, and hyaluronic acid, which deeply hydrates the skin. “Triple Barrier Science represents a holistic approach to skin health, supporting the microbiome, immune and physical barriers simultaneously. By strengthening these three interconnected systems, the CICA DAILY range boosts skin barrier resilience by over 90% and works for all skin types. It’s simple daily care that hydrates, repairs and protects, leaving skin supported and comfortable no matter what the day brings,” said Sharon Teo, Brand Manager, Uriage Singapore. Restoring Skin Resilience: The CICA DAILY Line-Up From left to right: CICA DAILY Repairing Cream Concentrate, CICA DAILY Intense Repairing Serum, and CICA DAILY Repairing Gel-Cream CICA DAILY Intense Repairing Serum (30ml) – $59. 90 The highlight of the range, the CICA DAILY Intense Repairing Serum, delivers three wins: stronger skin, smoother texture, and an even tone. Infused with Uriage’s 10. 5% Thermal-Biotic Complex, it acts like a little boost for your skin’s natural defences, hydrating, repairing, and balancing your skin from within.

The big question now is not just what machines can do, but what people are best at, and what we choose to value as technology becomes more advanced. From 9 to 12 April, Science Centre Singapore will host RoboFest 2026, the Centre’s first festival dedicated to robotics and AI, designed to help the public experience robotics up close while confronting a clear provocation: as machines advance, what does it mean to be fully human? To be held at the Science Centre, “RoboFest 2026: Meet Tomorrow, Today” is a four-day festival designed for curious families, students, working adults, seniors and the robotics community, bringing together interactive experiences, live demonstrations and learning moments across four zones. Through the festival, the Centre will demonstrate how humans and robots complement each other while educating the public on how to engage with these technologies. Science Centre is also piloting robots in its galleries to offer a taste of the enhanced guest experience that people can expect at the new Science Centre. Building on this foundation, the Centre is inviting the community, education partners and industries to collaborate and shape how humans and robots learn, play and discover together. Wheeled and bipedal humanoid robots will be deployed across galleries and exhibition spaces to serve as interactive companions for visitors. These social robots will take on distinct functional roles including performers, co-hosts, guides and engagement facilitators, working along with the Centre’s educators, demonstrating the potential of robotics technology in informal learning environments. “Robots will keep improving but what matters is how we respond. RoboFest is thus designed to help Singaporeans understand what technology can do today, understand the current limits, and where human judgment, empathy, creativity and responsibility matter most,” Ms Tham Mun See, Chief Executive of Science Centre Board, said. Anchored by Singapore’s public learning ecosystem As part of a broader focus on AI and robotics education, Science Centre will collaborate with schools and the community to further develop robotics-based progressive learning programmes and AI-enhanced learning experiences. During RoboFest 2026, Science Centre will offer AI and robotics learn-on-the-go walkthroughs to schools and the public, providing hands-on experience in emerging technologies. This reflects the Centre’s commitment to leveraging technology for more engaging and interactive learning experiences while equipping students and the public for a future increasingly shaped by AI and robotics. RoboFest is supported by the Ministry of Education, public agencies including GovTech Singapore and AI Singapore, and institutes of higher learning such as the National University of Singapore (NUS) and Nanyang Polytechnic (NYP). Other partners supporting learning and engagement include Google Cloud x Google for Education, Duck Learning (partner of LEGO® Education), and applied robotics collaborators including Weston Robot, Stellaris Robotics, Stick ‘Em and many more. Four zones, four human questions RoboFest will feature four experiential zones, each designed to move visitors from “wow” to understanding, and from possibility to reflection about the role they play in the AI space. 1. The Playground - When machines perform, what do we feel, and why? A high-energy entry point with live demonstrations and crowd moments, including a Robot Boxing showdown and a Robot Dog Fire-fighting challenge. A special highlight is the Science Centre’s very own limited-run comedy performance, My Colleague is a Robot Dog, offering a playful lens on human-robot interaction. Visitors will also get a chance to build robots, engage in AI prompt-crafting through a multi-player game and determine if an image or video is real or AI-generated. 2. Robotics in Real Life - What is truly useful, safe and responsible in everyday settings? A curated gallery of applied robotics and AI centred on real-world problem solving. NUS will showcase seven projects, including bio-inspired soft robotics and assistive concepts relevant to ageing and care, as well as Robi Butler, a remote multimodal household robot assistant experience. Other partner showcase highlights include a portable companion robot and an open source robot designed for AI education for students and other projects from Stellaris Robotics Pte Ltd. 3. Learning Hub — If AI becomes common, what should every Singaporean know? Hands-on robotics and AI programming walk-throughs for schools and the public, designed for practical learning on the go and talks and workshops by industry experts. Some learning experiences include a new exhibition space themed on AI and Robotics within the Future Makers Exhibition, first look at the LEGO® Education Computer Science & AI Kit in Singapore, interaction with Ameca where visitors can learn how to communicate effectively with AI systems, guided experiences such as drone coding fundamentals, and a balancing-robot session exploring stability and control. 4. RoboCup Arena - What happens when human teamwork meets machine capability? RoboFest will host the 18th edition of RoboCup Singapore, with teams competing from 11 April to the Finals on 12 April.

Set against the hotel’s beautifully restored colonial-era barracks and lush grounds, this two-day immersive survival camp invites young adventurers aged four to twelve to discover the thrill of the outdoors while building confidence, resilience and teamwork through hands-on exploration in a safe and guided environment. The collaboration speaks to a shared belief that the most meaningful family holidays are rooted in genuine experience. As more families seek purposeful getaways, the Sentosa Survival Camp Staycation offers the chance to slow down, reconnect and rediscover the joy of outdoor play. By combining a resort stay with guided outdoor activities, the programme hopes to foster confidence, curiosity and resilience in young explorers. “Amara Sanctuary Sentosa has always been a place where history, nature and hospitality come together in an unexpected way," said Anthony Lim, General Manager of Amara Sanctuary Sentosa.

Running from 24 March to 10 May 2026, this strictly limited engagement marks the final Asian stop of the production’s sold-out world tour. Developed by Cameron Mackintosh to celebrate the musical’s 40th anniversary, this arena version expands on earlier concert stagings into a fully realised large-scale production. With a cast and orchestra exceeding 65 performers, the show is designed to fill a vast performance space while maintaining the emotional core that has defined Les Misérables for decades. Ensemble - Photo credit to Danny Kaan A Larger-Than-Life Production From the very first note, it is clear this is far from a typical stage show. The production features a grand set by Matt Kinley, beautiful lighting by Paule Constable and Warren Letton, and impressive projections by Finn Ross, creating a visually immersive experience that fills the entire theatre. The large scale works well for the show. The barricade scenes feel more powerful, the crowd scenes feel more exciting, and the emotional moments connect strongly with the audience. The orchestra, led by Adrian Kirk, plays Claude-Michel Schönberg’s well-known music clearly and powerfully, supporting the story without overpowering it. A Stellar International Cast Geronimo Rauch as Jean Valjean. Photo credit to Michael Le Poer Trench Leading the production is Gerónimo Rauch as Jean Valjean, delivering a performance that is both powerful and deeply felt. His voice carries strength and control, while his acting brings out the character’s inner conflict and gradual transformation. He convincingly portrays Valjean’s journey from hardship to redemption, adding depth to each stage of the character’s life. This builds to a heartfelt and moving rendition of “Bring Him Home,” performed with sincerity and emotional restraint that leaves a lasting impression. Jeremy Secomb as Inspector Javert. Photo credit to Johan Persson Opposite him, Jeremy Secomb delivers a strong and focused performance as Inspector Javert. He brings a clear sense of authority to the role, portraying the inspector’s unwavering belief in law and order. His performance is intense yet controlled, capturing Javert’s inner struggle as his rigid ideals begin to falter. Through both his vocals and commanding stage presence, he presents a character that is disciplined, resolute, and ultimately conflicted. Nathania Ong as Eponine. Photo credit to Johan Persson A standout moment for many in the audience is the performance by Singaporean artist Nathania Ong as Éponine. Ong brings a genuine warmth and emotional honesty to the role, making Éponine’s story feel immediate and deeply human. In “On My Own,” she strikes a remarkable balance between strength and fragility, her voice carries the familiarity of the song while adding personal nuance that draws the listener in. The subtle shifts in her tone and expression allow the character’s longing and heartbreak to emerge naturally, creating a version of the song that feels both powerful and intimately felt. For local theatre‑goers, seeing a homegrown performer deliver such a moving and nuanced interpretation adds an extra layer of connection to the production. Lea Salonga as Madame Thénardier. Photo credit to Matt Crockett Adding further star power to the production is the internationally acclaimed Lea Salonga as Madame Thénardier. With a career spanning decades on stages worldwide, Salonga infuses the role with mischievous charm and infectious energy. Her impeccable comedic timing brings the Thénardiers’ scheming antics to life, while her expressive singing elevates even smaller musical moments. Salonga balances humour with theatrical flair, ensuring Madame Thénardier is both hilarious and fully dimensional, delighting audiences with a fresh and dynamic interpretation. The Thénardiers are further elevated by Red Concepción, whose comedic timing and stage presence inject energy into every scene. Meanwhile, Na-Young Jeon delivers a poignant Fantine, particularly in “I Dreamed a Dream,” which remains one of the show’s most emotionally resonant moments. The younger lovers are portrayed with charm by Will Callan as Marius and Lulu-Mae Pears as Cosette, while Harry Chandler stands out as a charismatic Enjolras, leading the student revolutionaries with conviction. Veteran performer Earl Carpenter adds warmth and authority as the Bishop of Digne. Emotion, Scale, and Timeless Storytelling Based on Les Misérables by Victor Hugo, the musical’s enduring themes of justice, love, sacrifice, and redemption remain as powerful as ever. What sets this arena version apart is how it amplifies those themes without losing intimacy. Even within a grand setting, quieter moments of Fantine’s despair, Éponine’s unrequited love, and Valjean’s internal conflict are given space to breathe and resonate deeply. Les Misérables The Arena Spectacular succeeds in translating one of theatre’s most enduring works into a format suited for large venues while preserving its emotional integrity. For Singapore audiences, it represents both a global theatrical event and a rare opportunity to experience the musical in a form that is simultaneously expansive and intimate. With its limited run and internationally recognized cast, this production stands as one of the most significant musical theatre presentations of Singapore’s current season, making it a show well worth catching before it concludes.

Centred on the idea of water as ingredient, texture, and inspiration, the four-course menu redefines how diners experience one of the most essential yet overlooked elements in gastronomy. To uncover the story behind this collaboration, we spoke with Janice Wong and JÄÄDE founder Allan Poh about the origins, challenges, and possibilities of working with water in dessert. To find out more about the desserts, visit our Instagram page at this LINK. From Lahti, Finland to Singapore: Where It All Began The collaboration traces back to Lahti, Finland, home to JÄÄDE’s pristine glacial aquifer beneath the Salpausselkä ridges. Allan shares: “We just started this brand quite recently, and last year we brought influencers from Singapore to Lahti to showcase the city and the water. Janice was our top choice, and that’s how we met. From there, she led the creative direction of what could be done with water. ” For Janice, the experience was both eye-opening and inspiring. “I learned a lot through this process especially about water quality, tasting, and pairing. It’s something people don’t usually think about, but it makes a big difference. ” Water as the Foundation of Dessert While water is present in almost every dish, Janice explains that its importance is often underestimated. “Water is a big part of desserts sometimes up to half of the composition so the quality has to be very good. ” Through experimentation, she began to understand how different waters influence flavour and texture. “When you start comparing different waters, you realise how much it affects the final result. ” This realisation shaped the philosophy of the menu, one that prioritises clarity, balance, and restraint. Minimal Sugar, Maximum Expression A key aspect of the degustation is the deliberate reduction of sugar, allowing water to take centre stage. “We try to keep sugar very minimal, because once you add sugar, it masks the purity of the water,” Janice explains. She also rethinks traditional pastry techniques: “Instead of using egg whites and sugar for meringue, you can use water with a stabiliser to create aeration. You still get a good texture, but without the sweetness. ” The result is a series of desserts that feel lighter, cleaner, and more nuanced than conventional interpretations. Inspired by Nature: Translating Lahti into Desserts Janice’s visit to Lahti played a significant role in shaping the menu’s aesthetic and direction. “When I visited Lahti and saw the natural environment and water facilities, everything was very clean. That inspired the direction of the desserts, we wanted that same sense of purity. ” From soft, cloud-like textures to icy, sculptural elements, the desserts reflect both Nordic landscapes and her contemporary pastry style. The Menu: A Four-Course Expression of Water The Janice Wong × JÄÄDE degustation ($58++) presents four desserts, each interpreting water through different textures, temperatures and forms. Arctic Drop – Water | Citrus | Butterfly Pea | Lychee A delicate, translucent water jelly inspired by the purity of Lahti’s glacial aquifer. Lightly infused with butterfly pea and lychee, it is paired with a bright citrus sorbet that adds a refreshing burst of acidity, capturing the crisp freshness of a Nordic summer. Nordic Cloud ($22++) – Aerated Cheese Mousse | Soursop | Figs A light, airy cheese mousse, gently aerated to create a cloud-like texture that dissolves effortlessly on the palate. Inspired by Finland’s pristine dairy heritage, it is complemented by the soft sweetness of figs and the tropical brightness of soursop, evoking snowdrifts shaped by Arctic air. Lahti Stone ($25++) – 70% Chocolate H₂O Mousse | Caramel | Yuzu Sorbet Inspired by the rugged beauty of Lahti’s rocky shores, this dessert takes the form of an edible stone, textured on the outside, yet soft within. Encased in rich dark chocolate is a velvety H₂O mousse made with JÄÄDE water, paired with caramel notes and a vibrant yuzu sorbet. Glacial Garden – Sweet Corn | Rose | Coconut | Gula Melaka A poetic interpretation of Finnish snowfall, layered with sweet corn cream and coconut, balanced with floral rose notes and the warm depth of gula melaka. The dessert reflects Janice Wong’s Southeast Asian heritage while drawing inspiration from Nordic winter landscapes. Aurora-Inspired Drinks to Complete the Experience To complement the degustation, 2am:dessertbar also offers two aurora borealis-inspired drinks featuring JÄÄDE sparkling water: Aurora Zest ($22++) – a refreshing cocktail Forest Fizz ($16++) – a light and vibrant mocktail These beverages extend the water-centric concept beyond desserts, creating a more immersive experience. Beyond the Plate: Craft, Purity and Expansion For Allan, the brand’s philosophy is rooted in preserving water in its most natural state. “We don’t put the water through heavy processing. There’s no UV treatment only mechanical filtration for sand and gravel. ” To ensure quality, strict testing protocols are in place: “We conduct both in-house and external lab tests before shipping, to ensure the water is safe for consumption. ” Looking ahead, JÄÄDE is focused on regional growth. “We are currently in Singapore and China, and while we explored the UAE, we are focusing on Southeast Asia and China this year. ” A Vision Beyond Singapore Both Janice and Allan see this collaboration as the beginning of a larger movement. “We hope to promote this concept and take it overseas. It’s something unique, a water-based dessert experience,” Allan shares. Janice echoes this sentiment: “There’s actually a lot you can do with water. I hope this inspires more chefs to explore it. ” Plan Your Visit The Janice Wong × JÄÄDE water-inspired degustation will be available: From 20 March 2026 For a limited period of two weeks At 2am:dessertbar, Singapore The full degustation is priced at $58++, with selected desserts available à la carte.

LEGOLAND School Challenge Launch - Group Photo (L-R: SG Judge Mr Jeffrey Kong, LEGOLAND and LEGO Group Representatives; First Row: Treetop Builders) Since its inception in 2022, the Challenge has grown from a local initiative into a regional platform, attracting hundreds of submissions from schools across Asia. Organised in partnership with Malaysia’s Ministry of Education, the 2026 edition aims to inspire the next generation of innovators through hands-on Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) learning, grounded in the LEGO philosophy of learning through play. New 2026 Challenge: The Ultimate Theme Park Ride This year, student teams of three to four participants across three categories – Junior (7–9 years), Primary (10–12 years), and Secondary (13–17 years) – are tasked with designing their most imaginative theme park attraction. Whether magical, futuristic, space-themed or underwater, each build should include at least one clearly defined ride vehicle or carriage. Teams can also earn additional points by incorporating a moving element, either manual or motorised, and are encouraged to use creative displays or dioramas to showcase their theme park ride. The final model should represent the complete ride experience, showcasing creativity, functionality, and build quality. Teams must also tell a clear and exciting story behind their concept, accompanied by a 50 to 100-word description in English explaining their LEGO creation. "The LEGOLAND School Challenge has evolved into more than a competition – it is a regional platform that empowers young minds to think boldly, collaborate across cultures, and turn imagination into innovation," said Cs Lim, Vice President of LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort. "By launching this year’s Challenge in Singapore, we are reinforcing our commitment to building stronger regional participation and giving students across Asia the opportunity to showcase their creativity on an international stage. Via learning-through-play, we are nurturing future-ready skills that extend far beyond the classroom. ” Introducing the LEGOLAND School Challenge’s First Judge from Singapore In a move to strengthen regional representation, the 2026 judging panel welcomes its first-ever Singaporean judge, Jeffrey Kong.

Organised by Disney Cruise Line in partnership with UOB, Marina Bay Sands and the Singapore Tourism Board (STB), the event marked the opening of “Adventure Begins: A Magical Bay Celebration with Disney Cruise Line. ” The festivities kicked off following the Disney Adventure’s maiden voyage on 10 March 2026.

This was followed by a spirited performance titled “Let’s Set Sail” featuring Captain Mickey Mouse, Captain Minnie Mouse and other beloved Disney characters. The highlight of the night was a 10‑minute sky show over the Marina Bay waterfront, with landmarks around the bay bathed in blue light. The show took viewers on a visual journey through the ship’s seven themed areas — Disney Imagination Garden, Toy Story Place, San Fransokyo Street, Town Square, Wayfinder Bay, Disney Discovery Reef and Marvel Landing accompanied by a medley of well‑known Disney songs including “When You Wish Upon a Star,” “Let It Go,” “Under the Sea” and “You’ve Got a Friend in Me. ” In honour of the Disney Adventure’s Singapore homeport and the city’s multicultural heritage, the sky show included local design elements.

The LEGO Group launches an exciting new chapter in it’s She Built That campaign to celebrate the powerful bonds girls create with their favourite animal – both real and toy – helping them discover the power of connection, confidence and creativity through friendships they build with their animal bestie. First launched in 2025, She Built That was created to challenge outdated stereotypes that can limit girls’ potential, encouraging them to see themselves as builders in every sense of the word. Global research commissioned by the LEGO Group reinforces this mission, highlighting the meaningful role animal friendships play in supporting girls’ development and imagination. Bringing this spirit of creativity and connection into the real world, a series of interactive retail experiences and hands-on play opportunities invite young builders in Singapore to the LEGO Paw-fect Friends Forever Experience, where they can explore storytelling, self-expression, and imaginative play through animal and nature builds. Animal friendships fuel creativity and confidence A global study of 13,250 children across 13 countries commissioned by the LEGO Group found that friendships with animals, from real pets to toy companions, can significantly boost girls’ creativity, confidence and emotional well-being. The research shows girls often form especially strong bonds with animal friends, with many saying these companions inspire imagination, teach kindness and responsibility, and even serve as trusted confidants, highlighting the powerful role play and connection can have in shaping self-belief. To bring this idea to life, the LEGO Group has partnered with wildlife conservationist and animal lover Bindi Irwin to inspire young builders around the world. Families can join a free online Build Your Bestie: Playful Pets workshop led by Bindi, now available on LEGO. com/CreativityWorkshops, where she guides children through fun animal-themed builds designed to spark storytelling, imagination, and hands-on creativity at home.

This playful launch transforms an everyday haircare essential into a collectible experience, merging functionality with nostalgia. The collection features six unique designs inspired by beloved Disney Princesses: Snow White, Cinderella, Ariel, Jasmine, Rapunzel, and Moana. Each brush showcases modern, stylised artwork, offering fans a fresh take on the classic characters. The blind box format adds an element of surprise, making each unboxing a delightful moment for both Disney enthusiasts and collectors. A closer look at the MagicBrush, where functional design meets character-inspired detailing within Stryv’s modern aesthetic. Beyond aesthetics, the MagicBrush is built for practical daily use. Its ultra-thin 0. 7mm bristles flex to detangle hair gently and easily, helping to reduce tugging and breakage. Suitable for both wet and dry hair, the brush also features ball-tipped bristles for a comfortable experience that is gentle on the scalp. True to Stryv’s modern design ethos, the MagicBrush is made without animal-derived materials, reflecting Stryv’s approach to modern, considered product design. The MagicBrush Blind Box collection is designed to resonate across generations, appealing to Disney fans as well as consumers drawn to the surprise and delight of blind box-collectibles. By combining Disney favourites into a functional daily essential, the collaboration also adds a sense of familiarity and joy to everyday routines, from morning to bedtime. The launch also reflects Stryv’s broader brand journey and ambitions. Roy Ang, Co-founder and CEO of Evo Commerce, Stryv’s parent company, shared that their collaboration with Disney represents an important step forward for the brand. “Collaborating with Disney is a meaningful milestone for Stryv and a reflection of how the brand continues to evolve,” he said. “We are focused on creating products that are not only functional, but also emotionally resonant.

The retailer, recognised as Singapore’s #1 trusted health and wellness brand, has officially reopened its flagship store at The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands, unveiling a fresh design and a wellness-first shopping experience. The transformation reflects a strategic shift toward holistic, preventive, and personalised wellness solutions. With five thoughtfully curated zones — Health & Wellness, Derma Skincare, Men’s, Trial & Travel, and Guardian’s Picks, the store is designed to simplify product discovery, reduce decision fatigue, and provide a seamless in-store journey. Complementing this layout is Guardian’s signature AI-powered Skin and Scalp Assessment, alongside expert pharmacist-led services, digital touchpoints, and an integrated mobile application to create a cohesive omni-channel experience. As customers increasingly seek functional and preventive solutions rather than basic care essentials, Guardian’s new flagship exemplifies the brand’s commitment to supporting long-term wellbeing. It offers a curated selection of clinically validated supplements, derma skincare, and functional haircare products, guided by professional advice and data-driven insights. To provide deeper insight into the thinking behind this transformation, we spoke with Naresh Kalani, Managing Director of Guardian Health & Beauty Singapore, about the retailer’s strategy to be Singapore’s trusted wellness advisor and how it is innovating through retail excellence, expert services, and assessments. Read on to find out more. Interview with Naresh Kalani, Managing Director of Guardian Health & Beauty Singapore Q1) What does Guardian’s role as Singapore’s trusted wellness advisor mean to you, and how is this strategy brought to life through your products, services, and store experiences? Naresh Kalani: Being Singapore’s Trusted Wellness Advisor means supporting our customers through their long-term wellness journey, beyond simply selling conventional products to actively guiding and being a part of their journey. It’s about earning trust through professional expertise and trusted products. Our strategy comes to life at our newly refreshed flagship at The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands, where we have five thoughtfully and clearly defined zones — Health & Wellness, Derma Skincare, Men’s, Trial & Travel, and Guardian’s Picks. These zones make product discovery more intuitive, reduce decision fatigue, and create a more seamless and efficient shopping journey. A key differentiator in our retail approach is also the professional advice available in-stores. Pharmacists and trained skin and scalp advisors engage and recommend suitable solutions, supported by technology such as our AI-powered Skin and Scalp Assessment. This enables more personalised and data-informed guidance, strengthening trust and confidence in decision-making. Q2) The newly redesigned Marina Bay Sands flagship marks a key milestone for Guardian. What were the strategic objectives behind this transformation, and how does it reflect Guardian’s evolving wellness-led retail approach, particularly in shaping the way customers engage with preventive and functional wellness solutions in their daily lives? Naresh Kalani: The Marina Bay Sands flagship represents an evolution of our retail strategy. Our objective was to create a store format that reflects how customers actually shop and make wellness decisions today. Insights from an internal customer study conducted by DFI Retail Group, Guardian’s parent company, show that customers increasingly view wellness as a holistic pursuit of vitality and long-term wellbeing, rather than a transactional need. This reflects a broader shift in expectations, where wellness is no longer centred solely on treating illness, but on proactively helping individuals feel their best and live well every day. The Marina Bay Sands flagship was designed specifically to meet this shift, which is reflected in three key ways:● First, we are moving beyond basic care essentials to offer daily functional and preventive solutions, supported by professional services from our pharmacists. ● Second, we are building our wellness assortment on trust and prevention by focusing on clinically validated supplements, derma skincare, synthetic- and chemical-free brands, and functional haircare, giving customers confidence in meeting their diverse wellness needs. ● Third, we are investing in wellness assessments to provide additional support and personalised guidance for our customers. Through these strategic approaches, this flagship has created a more seamless and informed shopping journey. It is also a tangible expression of our sharpened focus on the fast-growing wellness category – where health, beauty, and personal care converge – and how our retail environments are supporting more proactive customer engagement. Q3) The flagship features five wellness-led zones — Health & Wellness, Derma Skincare, Men’s, Trial & Travel, and Guardian’s Picks. How do these curated zones enhance product discovery and simplify decision-making for customers? Naresh Kalani: Customers today have access to an extensive range of wellness and beauty products, and the sheer volume of options can be overwhelming. Without clear guidance, navigating these choices can make decision-making more difficult. Our five wellness-led zones address this by organising the space around customer intentions rather than by brands alone — all to simplify navigation, reduce decision fatigue, and help customers find what is most relevant to them. Supported by clear signposting and digital touchpoints, the result is a more intuitive discovery process and a more confident purchasing experience. Ultimately, the design reflects a shift towards more informed, purposeful engagement with health and beauty retail. Q4) Guardian’s AI-powered Skin & Scalp Assessment measures 12 skin and 12 hair parameters in just five minutes. How does this technology enhance personalised recommendations and elevate the in-store experience? Naresh Kalani: We are seeing a clear shift in Singapore’s beauty and wellness landscape — from generic, one-size-fits-all products to solutions that are personalised, evidence-based, and technology-driven. Many customers don’t lack options; they lack clarity. When routines fail to deliver results, it’s often because the products aren’t tailored to their individual skin or scalp needs. Our Skin and Scalp Assessment service addresses this gap by combining AI-powered solutions with personalised assessments and product recommendations, shifting the focus from trial-and-error to informed, preventive care. Using advanced imaging technology, the assessment measures 12 skin and 12 scalp parameters, including hydration levels, oil balance, sensitivity, skin barrier health, pigmentation, acne-related concerns, and visible signs of aging. For the scalp, it evaluates oil balance, scalp condition, follicle health, and early indicators... --- - Published: 2026-03-08 - Modified: 2026-03-08 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/sinnkawa-celebrates-its-first-anniversary-with-the-launch-of-sun-tanned-merlion-and-singapores-first-merlion-themed-cafe-interview-with-soul-chen-founder-and-ceo-of-cartoon-soul-pt/ - Categories: DINING, INTERVIEW - Tags: Ling Ling Kwong, Merlion-Themed Café, Sinnkawa, Soul Chen, Sun-Tanned Merlion Homegrown lifestyle brand Sinnkawa is celebrating its first anniversary with several exciting milestones, including the debut of the Sun-Tanned Merlion and the official opening of Singapore’s first permanent Merlion-themed café at its three-storey flagship store in Chinatown. Sinnkawa Chinatown Facade Located at 15 Trengganu Street, #01-01/02/03, the flagship store will host the anniversary celebration on 12 March 2026. The event also marks a special moment for the young brand, which has expanded rapidly within its first year and now operates four retail outlets across Chinatown Singapore and Haji Lane. Originally launched as a character-led retail concept, Sinnkawa has steadily evolved into a lifestyle brand that combines character storytelling, immersive retail experiences and themed F&B offerings. The first anniversary celebration reflects this evolution as the brand continues to explore new ways of engaging visitors through creative retail concepts and experiential spaces. Sinnakwa Sun-Tanned Merlion A key highlight of the celebration is the introduction of the Sun-Tanned Merlion, a playful beach-inspired alter ego of Sinnkawa’s signature Merlion character. Inspired by Singapore’s tropical island identity, the character presents a lighthearted and contemporary interpretation of the iconic Merlion while celebrating the warmth and vibrancy of the city. The anniversary also marks the official opening of Singapore’s first permanent Merlion-themed café within Sinnkawa’s flagship store. Designed as an immersive and photo-friendly space, the café extends the Sinnkawa universe beyond retail by offering visitors a multi-sensory environment where lifestyle, storytelling and social experiences come together. Thai actress Ling Ling Kwong Adding to the excitement of the celebration is a special appearance by Thai actress Ling Ling Kwong, who will attend the event on 12 March 2026. Known for her breakout role in the Thai television series The Secret of Us, Ling Ling Kwong has gained a growing international fanbase and her appearance marks her first official brand engagement in Singapore. We spoke to Soul Chen, the entrepreneur behind Sinnkawa, whose vision has guided the brand’s rapid growth and transformation over the past year. In this interview, he shares insights into Sinnkawa’s journey from a character merchandise concept to an immersive lifestyle brand, the inspiration behind the Sun-Tanned Merlion, and the strategic thinking behind integrating retail and café experiences within the flagship store. Interview with Soul Chen, Founder and CEO of Cartoon Soul Pte Ltd (Sinnkawa) 1) Sinnkawa began as a character-led retail concept and has now expanded into immersive retail and themed F&B within just one year. How has your vision for the brand evolved since its inception? Soul Chen: When Sinnkawa first began, our focus was on building emotional connections through character led retail. Over the past year, my vision has evolved from creating products to building a universe. Today, we are not just selling merchandise — we are designing immersive environments where storytelling, lifestyle and community converge. The brand has grown from being product-centric to experience-centric. 2) Within one year, Sinnkawa has grown to four retail outlets across Chinatown and Haji Lane. What were the key business strategies that enabled this expansion? Soul Chen: Our expansion was guided by three key strategies: targeted location selection, strong brand storytelling, and operational scalability. Chinatown and Haji Lane align with our target audience — both locals and tourists seeking culture-driven lifestyle brands. At the same time, we built replicable store formats and centralised supply systems to ensure growth without compromising quality. 3) Sinnkawa works with officially licensed Merlion character storytelling. From an entrepreneurial perspective, what responsibility comes with reinterpreting one of Singapore’s most recognisable national icons? Soul Chen: Reinterpreting the Merlion carries both privilege and responsibility. As one of Singapore’s most recognisable icons, it deserves respect, authenticity, and thoughtful storytelling. Our responsibility is to preserve its cultural significance while making it relevant to younger, global audiences. We see ourselves as cultural translators. 4) The launch of Sun-Tanned Merlion introduces a beach-inspired alter ego of your signature Merlion character. What inspired this creative direction? Soul Chen: Singapore is a tropical island city — vibrant, sunny and coastal. The Sun-Tanned Merlion reflects this relaxed, beach-inspired lifestyle. We wanted to present a playful alter ego that resonates with both locals and tourists, celebrating Singapore’s warmth — both in climate and in spirit. 5) When transforming a national symbol into a lifestyle character, what balance do you aim to strike between commercial appeal and cultural authenticity? Soul Chen: The balance lies in intention. Commercial appeal ensures sustainability, while cultural authenticity ensures credibility. Every design decision undergoes a filter: does it honour the Merlion’s identity while adding a fresh perspective? If we respect the symbol’s roots, commercial success becomes a by-product, not the primary goal. 6) The Sun-Tanned Merlion collection spans plushies and lifestyle collectables starting from SGD19. 90. How do you determine product categories and price positioning for your character launches? Soul Chen: We structure product launches across accessible entry points and premium collectables. Starting from SGD19. 90 allows young consumers and tourists to participate in the brand story, while higher-tiered items cater to collectors. Pricing reflects perceived value, production quality and positioning within Singapore’s lifestyle retail landscape. 7) This anniversary also marks the official opening of Singapore’s first permanent Merlion themed café within your flagship store. What strategic considerations led you to expand into F&B? Soul Chen: F&B allows us to extend storytelling into multi-sensory engagement. Retail connects visually and emotionally, while café experiences engage taste, scent, and social interaction. Strategically, it increases dwell time, strengthens brand recall, and transforms our flagship into a destination rather than just a store. 8) The café is positioned as an immersive, photo-led space within the Sinnkawa universe. How does experiential design influence the way consumers engage with your brand? Soul Chen: Experiential design shifts consumers from passive buyers to active participants. Photo-led spaces encourage user-generated content, organic sharing, and deeper emotional attachment. When customers step into the Sinnkawa universe, they are not just shopping — they are co-creating memories. 9) What operational or branding considerations were most critical when integrating retail and café concepts within the same flagship space? Soul Chen: Operational flow... --- - Published: 2026-03-07 - Modified: 2026-03-07 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/black-tap-singapore-debuts-world-first-crazysundae-and-unveils-new-alfresco-space/ - Categories: DINING - Tags: Black Tap, CrazySundaes Black Tap Craft Burgers & Beer is ushering in a new chapter in Singapore with the launch of CrazySundaes, a new signature dessert that pays homage to the nostalgia of classic ice cream sundaes while representing the evolution of the brand’s world-famous CrazyShake® concept.

Masterfully crafted into refined Cantonese creations, the menu reflects the restaurant’s long-standing commitment to premium, sustainably sourced produce. Available from 4 March to 30 April 2026, diners can look forward to an extensive à la carte selection of handcrafted dim sum and a variety of seasonal main dishes, alongside an elegantly curated 5-course set menu. Available for lunch only, the delightful dim sum selection introduces new spring-inspired delicacies, such as the Steamed Morel Mushroom and Red Grouper Dumpling ($8++ for two pieces), pairing earthy morel mushrooms with silky red grouper, and the Steamed Prawn Dumpling with Pea Sprout Skin and Asparagus ($8++ for two pieces), which features a dumpling skin made from pea sprouts for a burst of natural colour and flavour. Additional dim sum creations include the Deep-Fried Bamboo Pith Roll with Spring Bamboo Shoot, Pea Sprout, Mushroom and Chicken ($8++ for two pieces), where light, airy bamboo pith is wrapped around the tender filling for a delicate crunch, and the Deep-Fried Crab Meat with Yuzu Spring Roll ($8++ for two pieces), where floral yuzu lends a refreshing citrus lift to the naturally sweet crab meat within.

A standout dish is the Wok-Fried Spring Bamboo Shoot with Conch Meat and Preserved Mustard Green ($58++ per portion), combining prized, briny mollusk meat from China with crunchy spring bamboo shoots, while the preserved mustard greens round it off with a rich savouriness. For those seeking lighter flavours, the Steamed Marble Goby Fillet with Pea Sprout in Lemon Grass Chicken Superior Stock ($25++ per person) is gently perfumed with lemongrass, allowing the natural sweetness of the marble goby to shine alongside the crisp freshness of pea sprouts.

Building on its mission to transform how we experience clean water and air, the homegrown brand now brings the same thoughtful approach to relaxation with the launch of its first-ever massage chairs – Cloud and Cloud 9. Driven by the belief that everyone should have easy access to clean water, Happie quickly became a trusted name in premium home and business purification solutions, from tankless hot-and-cold water dispensers to undersink filtration systems and air purifiers. With the introduction of the Cloud series, Happie takes its next step as a wellness expert, bringing restorative comfort and rejuvenation directly into the home. Thoughtful design and accessible pricing make Cloud and Cloud 9 a reflection of Happie’s commitment to making healthy living achievable for everyone. No longer just a treat for weekends or special occasions, the Cloud series transforms any home into a personal wellness sanctuary, where calm, comfort, and renewal are always within reach. Designed to integrate effortlessly into everyday life, these chairs feature industry-leading innovation and technology. Cloud 9: Where Cutting Edge Technology Meets Ultimate Comfort Meet Cloud 9, a revolution in restorative comfort. Powered by an advanced 4D + 3D Dual Core ‘V’ Massage Engine and 36 airbags with 3D Wrap-Around Inflation, the massage chair adapts to your body’s tightness, curves and tension points and intelligently varies the speed and rhythm of its rollers – delivering a deep and natural full-body massage rivalling the intuitive touch of a professional therapist. Enhancing the experience, its Heated Jade Rollers – known for their exceptional thermal stability – help boost blood circulation, reduce muscle stiffness and support recovery. With its snug and secure armrest, enjoy a Piano-Style Spa Massage that mimics the feel of alternating finger pressure across the full length of the arms down to your fingertips, releasing knots and stiffness with rhythmic pressure, while Smart Auto Foot Circumferencing accurately gauges the size of your feet, enabling the airbags to better cradle your feet in a secure, supportive hold. Sensing and embracing every contour perfectly, this precise fit allows the rollers to target key reflexology points accurately for a tailored foot massage, toes included. For a truly immersive massage that helps your body heal from within, the Heat Therapy Shawl uses Carbon Fibre Heating Technology to envelope the shoulders, chest, abdomen and waist – soothing muscles, relieving back pain, easing digestive tension, and inviting the body into a state of deep calm. Recognised globally for its design and engineering, Cloud 9 has also earned the prestigious Italian A’Design Award and currently holds 15 national patents. Cloud: Elevated Comfort Within Reach Ease into a slower rhythm with Cloud, designed for everyday decompression that feels deeply comforting. Also equipped with an advanced 4D + 3D Dual Core ‘V’ Massage Engine, the massage chair incorporates a network of 44 airbags with 3D Wrap-Around Inflation that span your entire body, from shoulders, chest and abdomen, down to your arms and legs – enveloping you in a rhythmic massage that helps boost circulation while releasing built-up tension. Coupled with Waist and Calf Heating that accelerates relaxation in muscles and improves oxygen and nutrient delivery, the airbags and rollers work more effectively in easing soreness, reducing stiffness and relieving muscle fatigue. Elevate your relaxation to even greater heights with Zero Gravity Recline. As the massage chair reclines, it positions the body to form a 118° angle, while raising the legs to form a 135° angle with the body, elevating it above your heart for a float-like sensation of weightlessness – reducing spinal pressure, easing tension and further optimising the performance of airbags and rollers to deliver a more effective and revitalising massage. Cloud’s Zero Space Design also means that only 10cm of wall clearance is required for it to fully recline, making it ideal for urban homes and apartments. For an invigorating foot massage, the Heated Advanced Foot Spa Therapy uses kneading, rubbing and scraping motions, gentle stretches and multi-directional foot rollers to target calf muscles, support knee joint health, and stimulate key acupressure points on your feet. The Cloud Series: Comfort Reimagined for the Home Be it Cloud or Cloud 9, sink into one of these massage chairs and let Dual Intelligent AI Detection work quietly behind the scenes, assessing your body’s needs with a 4-Index Human Health Assessment that reads blood oxygen, heart rate, fatigue levels, and micro-circulation. Based on these insights, Cloud recommends a pre-programmed massage that best suits your current state, while Cloud 9 goes a step further with a personalised massage tailored to your body’s needs. Alternatively, choose from one of the 20 pre-programmed massages based on your personal preferences — including ones reminiscent of traditional Chinese and Thai massages, stress-relief sequences, energising midday sessions and sports-recovery modes, there will always be one that meets your needs. Next, Body Shape Detection scans the spine, shoulders, and overall posture, ensuring every roll, press, and stretch fits your body perfectly. Whether you are tall or petite, this technology delivers a massage that feels deeply personal, allowing the body to fully relax while tension gently melts away with every movement. Further unlocking the potential of Cloud & Cloud 9, the i-OPEN Flexible Rails eases any built-up pressure and encourages a sense of full-body release and relaxation through advanced spinal stretching. Beyond that, the V-shaped rollers trace the shoulders-to-back and hips-to-waist in a fluid motion, delivering a hand-like feel that adapts closely to the body for an immersive experience. By combining S-Track and L-Track systems that follow the natural contours of the spine, extending massage coverage right down to the hips and thighs, the Dual-Track Technology allows for both the upper and lower body to be worked on simultaneously — resulting in an efficient 20-minute full-body massage that decidedly packs a punch.

Designed for gatherings across generations, the new menu additions also include well-loved, non-spicy classics that make hosting and group dining feel effortless. Highlights span Singapore café classics and Peranakan favourites, bringing together familiar comfort and thoughtful refinement. Additionally, a new dessert trolley will soon make its debut, offering a curated selection of the brand’s indulgent cakes. Available throughout the day, it invites diners to conclude their meal on a sweet note, or linger longer over a slice for an elegant finale to any meal. Guests can also enjoy dining in the restaurant’s indoor veranda on Level 4, a calm, garden-like retreat tucked away above Orchard Road. Lush and inviting, it is ideal for intimate meet-ups, heartfelt conversations, and lingering lunches or dinners. New and Returning Additions At Ion Orchard Singapore Café Classics Leading the new additions are two beloved dishes from Violet Oon Singapore’s early days at ION Orchard: the Hainanese Pork Chop and Shepherd’s Pie. Together, they pay homage to a distinctive chapter of Singapore’s café culture, shaped by British influences and interpreted through the hands of Hainanese chefs, presented with the relaxed elegance the brand is known for. The Hainanese Pork Chop also makes a return, featuring deep-fried Kurobuta pork loin crusted with a cream cracker batter, topped with a house-made tomato reduction, and served with steak cut fries and petit pois tossed with minced kale. The Shepherd’s Pie, a longtime Violet Oon signature since its early days at Takashimaya Food Hall, also makes its return. Slow-braised minced meat is folded into a rich, savoury gravy, crowned with buttery mashed potatoes, and baked until golden. Peranakan Signatures and Plant-Based Favourites Another highlight among the new additions is Nyonya Mah Mee, featuring silky noodles wok-tossed with prawns, squid, and pork in a rich broth. Served in the traditional Peranakan way, it comes accompanied by sambal belachan, crispy pork lard, and Mah Mee Rojak, a piquant salad of pineapple and cucumbers. The dish and its accompaniments bring together richness, freshness, and texture in a reflection of the Peranakan culinary philosophy of balance and harmony on the plate. Other additions include Crispy Kurobuta Pork Fingerlings, juicy pork marinated and deep-fried until crisp, served with Violet Oon’s signature chilli sauce, as well as Nasi Goreng Udang, a fragrant wok-fried rice with prawns, egg and hae bee. Also expanding the restaurant’s repertoire of plant-based offerings is the Meatless Meatballs Rendang, a comforting returning favourite. This flavour-forward dish features walnut and cheese morsels braised with aromatic kaffir lime and bay leaves, finished with a creamy spiced coconut rendang sauce. Violet Oon Singapore Gift Shop Located adjacent to the restaurant, the Violet Oon Singapore Gift Shop offers a curated collection of gourmet products inspired by Chef Violet Oon’s own recipes and family traditions, allowing guests to extend the dining experience beyond the restaurant and into their homes.

It should circulate air effectively, operate efficiently, and fit seamlessly into daily routines. The NNIO EZ88 12″ BLDC Motor 3D Osc Air Circulator achieves exactly that by combining strong airflow performance with intelligent features and thoughtful design. Efficient and Powerful BLDC Motor At the heart of the EZ88 is a 40W BLDC (Brushless DC) motor. This motor delivers a maximum airflow speed of 7. 5 m/s, providing steady and effective air circulation suitable for bedrooms, living areas, and workspaces. The 12-inch fan head is equipped with 9 ABS blades, designed to optimise airflow delivery while maintaining smooth operation.

It makes the fan suitable for distributing air evenly across sofas, beds, desks, or open spaces. Convertible for Different Spaces Versatility is another major strength. The EZ88 is designed to switch easily between: Stand fan mode Table fan mode Floor fan mode This flexibility allows it to adapt to different room layouts and usage preferences without requiring additional appliances. With product dimensions of L340 × W324 × H1000 mm and a net weight of 4. 1 kg, it maintains a balanced footprint that is substantial yet manageable for repositioning when needed.

Additional features include: 7-hour count-up and countdown timer Last Memory function that restores previous settings after power interruption User-friendly control panel for straightforward operation These practical enhancements make daily usage simple and intuitive. Effortless One-Twist Cleaning Maintenance is made significantly easier with the Twist & Release fan head design. The front and rear guards detach with a single twist, enabling fast, tool-free cleaning. This thoughtful feature simplifies upkeep and supports long-term performance. The NNIO EZ88 12″ BLDC Motor 3D Osc Air Circulator stands out for its efficient 40W BLDC motor, strong 7. 5 m/s airflow performance, intelligent AI temperature sensing, wide 3D oscillation coverage, convertible design, and convenient remote functionality.

For families in particular, thoughtful amenities and personalised service make all the difference. At the heart of this focus is Momentus Hotel Alexandra, the flagship property of Momentus Hotels & Resorts, which recently welcomed Chantel Lim as its new Director of Commercial. With over 20 years of experience across Southeast Asia in hospitality sales and business development, Chantel brings a guest-focused yet commercially savvy approach to her role. Her experience spans corporate, leisure, and MICE segments, with senior roles at Hyatt, Dao by Dorsett AMTD Singapore, Pan Pacific Singapore, Resorts World Sentosa, and InterContinental Hotels Group. Now, she is steering the hotel’s commercial strategy while keeping family and leisure experiences at the forefront. We spoke to Chantel to learn more about her vision, the opportunities ahead for the hotel, and what guests can expect when visiting Momentus Hotel Alexandra. Read on to find out more. Interview with Chantel Lim, Director of Commercial at Momentus Hotel Alexandra 1) Congratulations on your appointment. What drew you to Momentus Hotel Alexandra, and how does this role build on your experience in the hospitality industry? Chantel Lim: Momentus Hotel Alexandra stood out to me because of its strong balance between commercial performance and genuine guest focus. It is a brand that caters to a diverse mix of travellers, from corporate guests to families and leisure travellers, which aligns closely with my experience across these segments. This role allows me to bring together my background in commercial strategy, sales, revenue management, and partnerships, while contributing to the continued growth of a flagship hotel within the Momentus Hotels & Resorts portfolio. I was also drawn to the brand’s people-first culture and its clear focus on long-term value creation, which aligns closely with how I approach leadership and commercial strategy. 2) In your new role as Director of Commercial, what key priorities are you focusing on to strengthen Momentus Hotel Alexandra’s positioning within Singapore’s hospitality market? Chantel Lim: My immediate priorities are to sharpen the hotel’s market positioning and ensure stronger alignment across sales, marketing, and revenue functions. This includes strengthening demand across corporate, leisure, and MICE segments, while ensuring clear differentiation in a competitive market. I am also focused on strengthening cross-functional alignment between commercial and operational teams, so that pricing, packaging, and promotions consistently reflect the hotel’s facilities and service standards and meets guest expectations. 3) Drawing from your experience across corporate, leisure, and MICE segments, what key demand or guest trends do you foresee shaping the hospitality landscape in the year ahead? Chantel Lim: Guests are becoming more discerning and value-driven. They are looking for experiences that feel purposeful, flexible, and personalised, rather than purely transactional. For families and leisure travellers, convenience, comfort, and thoughtful amenities matter more than ever. Across corporate and MICE segments, I see a growing demand for adaptable spaces and events that integrate wellness, sustainability, and local experiences - areas where Momentus Hotel Alexandra is well positioned for. 4) How do you approach driving commercial performance while ensuring that the guest experience remains a core focus of the hotel’s overall strategy? Chantel Lim: When we prioritise guest needs, commercial decisions naturally become more sustainable and effective. I believe commercial performance is closely tied to how well we understand and deliver on the guest journey. This requires close collaboration between commercial teams, operations, and the heart-of-house teams. When everyone is aligned, we can deliver strong results without compromising service quality or guest satisfaction. 5) You have led diverse commercial teams throughout your career. What leadership principles do you believe are essential in building strong, high-performing teams in today’s hospitality environment? Chantel Lim: I value clarity, trust, and accountability. Teams perform best when expectations are clear, communication is open, and individuals feel empowered to take ownership of their roles. In today’s hospitality environment, adaptability and continuous learning are also essential. I am fortunate to work alongside a strong leadership team at Momentus Hotel Alexandra and place strong emphasis on open communication, data-led decision-making, and cross-department collaboration, so teams can respond quickly to market changes while staying aligned. 6) Looking ahead, what opportunities do you see for Momentus Hotel Alexandra’s continued growth, and what can partners and guests look forward to under your commercial leadership? Chantel Lim: I see strong opportunities to further enhance Momentus Hotel Alexandra’s appeal to business and leisure travellers, including families seeking comfortable, well-located, and experience-led stays. Partners can expect a more collaborative, long-term approach, while guests can look forward to thoughtfully curated offerings, refreshed experiences, and consistent service that reflects the hotel’s commitment to quality and relevance in Singapore’s hospitality landscape. Chantel Lim’s leadership brings a clear focus on experiences that matter most to all guests, with particular attention to families: convenience, comfort, thoughtful amenities, and flexibility. For parents, this means staying at a hotel that understands both business and leisure needs, while offering spaces and services that make family stays easier and more enjoyable. Her philosophy demonstrates that strong commercial strategy and exceptional guest experience are not mutually exclusive when done right, they enhance each other. Guests, including families, business travellers, and leisure seekers, can look forward to stays that are thoughtfully curated, with attention to detail that creates memorable experiences. Under her guidance, Momentus Hotel Alexandra is well-positioned to continue providing exceptional service while achieving sustainable growth.

Helmed by Practice Artistic Director Kuo Jian Hong (Partial Eclipse of the Heart, The Soldier & His Virtuous Wife and If There’re Seasons... ), this staging promises to be one of Singapore’s most ambitious theatrical productions of 2026. Featuring an epic cast of 26 performers, audiences can look forward to the musical’s signature blend of memorable songs, dynamic choreography and critically acclaimed scenography. This includes the return of the celebrated “Battle of the Greats” number, which features a dazzling mix of traditional and contemporary puppetry techniques. Expect everything from traditional Chinese glove puppetry, to playful object theatre (made from upcycled materials), to massive rod puppets operated by multiple cast members! A Living Work in Constant Renewal First written by the late theatre doyen Kuo Pao Kun as a play, Lao Jiu has been staged in multiple countries and languages since its premiere — each version shaped by the artists and contexts of its time. In 2005, the story was adapted into a full-scale Mandarin musical by Kuo Jian Hong, a bold experiment that established Practice as one of the pioneers in creating Original Chinese Language Musical Theatre — a distinctively Singaporean genre blending Western musical theatre forms with Chinese language, culture and aesthetics. Following a major reworking, Lao Jiu: The Musical returned in 2012 to sold-out houses and was revived again in 2017. It was lauded by The Business Times (2017) for its “emotive songs, effective choreography and a moving story with a classic struggle”, with the publication declaring that “Lao Jiu: The Musical ticks all the boxes as a great Singapore (Mandarin) musical. ” The production won Best Ensemble and Best Director at The Straits Times Life! Theatre Awards 2013, and the set and costume design was selected for exhibition as a featured Scenic Design entry at the 2013 World Stage Design (WSD) held in Cardiff, Wales. For Kuo Jian Hong, each revival is less about preservation than rediscovery. “Lao Jiu isn’t a work you save as ‘final. pdf’ and file away,” she shares. “Every iteration adds another layer of understanding. As artists change, and as society changes, the work changes with us. ” She points out that while Lao Jiu was once known solely as a “Kuo Pao Kun play”, it has since evolved into a piece of collective artmaking. “Thirty-six years later, it carries the voices, questions and experiences of generations of theatre-makers. It has developed a life of its own. ” A Story That Resonates Across Generations Set against the backdrop of 1980s Singapore, Lao Jiu: The Musical centres on a young man torn between his passion for traditional Chinese puppetry and the weight of family obligation. Yet, despite its period settings, the show’s emotional core remains recognisable: the difficult negotiations between desire and duty, idealism and practicality. “These are choices that many people grapple with, not just artists,” notes Kuo. “A student might relate to Lao Jiu’s desire to pursue an ‘impractical’ dream career, while the pressures of providing for the family might resonate with older viewers. Lao Jiu is an evergreen story because each generation can see themselves reflected in the different characters. ” In a rapidly changing world shaped by technological advances, urban development and broadening social values, the production continues to invite reflection on how individuals define success and responsibility. “The world has changed so much since Lao Jiu was first written, and I’m excited to see how today’s audiences will respond,” says Kuo. “I hope it sparks reflection — about how we face ‘choices’ at life’s crossroads — and opens deeper conversations around dreams, responsibility and decision-making. ” A Platform for Generations of Performers Reflecting Practice’s long-standing commitment to artistic development, continuity and mentorship, the many versions of Lao Jiu: The Musical have also become a training ground for local performers. Singer-turned-actor Sugie Phua, who previously played Lao Jiu in the 2012 and 2017 productions, returns this time in the role of Lao Jiu’s father. “At first, I was a little worried because I’m not a father yet! ” jokes Phua. “But since I’ve already played Sun Wu Kong, this role is yet another challenge to stretch me as a performer — and maybe a good ‘practice run’ for when I become a dad some day! ” Taking on the title role this year is singer-songwriter Amsden Huang, who makes his musical theatre debut in the production. “All this is completely new to me! ” he notes. “It’s pushed me far beyond just singing. I’m learning how to tell a story physically and emotionally, and even how to operate puppets onstage. ” Joining them is a stellar cast of new faces, musical theatre veterans and returning original cast members — some reprising the same role for the third time. “For many of these performers, Lao Jiu has followed them through various stages of their career – from newbies tackling their first major production to industry veterans guiding the new generation,” says Kuo. “It’s very moving to consider Lao Jiu as more than a show, but also a site for transmission, legacy and cultural inheritance – how many local productions can say that? ” Returning Creative Team, New Voices The production retains songs by acclaimed Mandopop luminaries Xiaohan (lyrics) and Eric Ng (music), alongside a core creative team that has shaped earlier incarnations of the musical. This includes Music Director Julian Wong (also co-arranger alongside Bang Wenfu), Choreographer Seong Hui Xuan (building on George Chan’s 2012 work), Set Designer Szu-Feng Chen, Props Designer Rainie C. , Lighting Designer Genevieve Peck, Sound Designer Shah Tahir, Hair Designer Ashley Lim and Makeup Designer Bobbie Ng (The Make Up Room). Joining them are new collaborators, including Puppet Designer & Director Bright Ong (expanding Benjamin Ho’s work from 2012 and 2017) and Costume Designer MAX.

What may appear at first glance to be a niche pastime has evolved into a multigenerational activity rooted in patience, creativity, and community. Photo credit: The Gundam Base Singapore Artist's Impression The official opening of The Gundam Base Singapore at Jewel Changi Airport on February 3, 2026 marks a significant milestone for local and regional fans. More than a retail space, Bandai Namco’s flagship concept store is designed as an immersive hub where enthusiasts can explore themed Gundam model exhibits, interactive build experiences, and exclusive merchandise. A 1. 8 metre RX-78 Gundam statue welcomes visitors at the entrance, while a Photo Booth featuring a large blueprint of the fan-favourite RX-78-2 Gundam offers a dedicated space for fans to capture the moment. The store also features a dedicated workshop area specially designed for newcomers who are keen to try Gunpla building for the first time. During weekends, these model-building workshops are free to the public, with families encouraged to participate together as a bonding activity. Located at Level 4 (#04-219), 78 Airport Boulevard, Singapore 819666, the store operates daily from 10am to 10pm, serving not only Singapore-based collectors but also Gundam fans across the region. With its official launch, The Gundam Base Singapore reinforces a broader shift, one where Gunpla is not simply about assembling plastic parts, but about mindfulness, patience, and shared experience. To better understand how this hobby has evolved into something deeper, we spoke to two long-time and avid Gunpla collectors, Kenny Lim and Benjamin Wong. Read on to find out more. Interview with Kenny Lim, Long-Time and Avid Gunpla Collector 1) Many people associate mindfulness with activities like meditation or yoga. In what ways does building Gunpla give you a similar sense of calm or mental clarity? Kenny Lim: For me, building Gunpla puts me in the same headspace people describe when they talk about mindfulness. Once I’m cutting, sanding, or snapping parts together, my attention narrows naturally. And I transcended into the “zone”. The outside noise fades, time slows down, and I’m fully present with what’s in my hands. That quiet focus is incredibly relaxing, claiming and of course mental clarity. 2) What is it about the physical, hands-on process of building Gunpla that helps you switch off from daily stress or digital fatigue? Kenny Lim: A big part of it is the “hands on” approach. My hands are busy with very specific actions like cutting, sanding, snapping parts together. That pulls my attention from my worries and distractions and focuses on what I am doing right now. It’s the same reason people find cooking or woodworking calming — your body anchors your mind. 3) Unlike digital games or passive entertainment, Gunpla encourages builders to work step by step and enjoy small, tangible milestones. Why do you think this kind of experience is especially meaningful today? Kenny Lim: Gunpla offers tangible rewards through a deliberate, hands-on process. You plan, prepare, and build one piece at a time, with each completed step serving as a small but meaningful milestone. By the time the model is finished, those incremental efforts accumulate into a deeply satisfying sense of completion. In contrast, much of today’s digital experience revolves around instant gratification—quick wins, endless scrolling, constant stimulation with no real closure. Gunpla is quite the opposite. It slows you down, demands patience, and rewards sustained attention with something concrete and lasting. 4) Gunpla is often seen as a solo hobby. How did it become something you could share with friends and fellow collectors over time? Kenny Lim: Gunpla may begin as a solitary activity, but it rarely remains that way. At first, it was just ME, the kit, the tools, and my dictated pace. That quiet, inward focus is part of its appeal. Yet the moment a build is finished, something shifts. You start seeking out like-minded individuals to share what you’ve created. Hobby shops, cafés, online forums, and social platforms become gathering points—places to connect through a shared language of plastic and patience. Over time, group build nights, hobby shop tables, and Discord calls—where everyone stands in comfortable silence—turn solitude into companionship. Conversation becomes optional; the simple knowledge that others are building alongside you is enough. In moments like these, the idea of Gunpla as a purely solitary hobby makes little sense. 5) As long-time and avid Gunpla collectors, how has your relationship with the hobby evolved from when you first started to what it represents in your life today? Kenny Lim: When I first got into Gunpla, it’s usually pretty simple: this looks cool, I want to build it. The focus is on the end result—the pose, the rush of snapping the last piece in place. It’s exciting, fast, and maybe a little chaotic. Then I started to pay more attention to the process, learning and understanding the necessity of each step, the build up and everything in between. I started to develop that sense of colour, composition and style. I settled into a routine and like clock work, I set to work on projects every day without fail. Then it progresses every further, I am taking part in competitions, bringing the craft to even greater heights. And before I know it, I am organizing competitions to cater to all modelers of all skill levels. Giving back to the community you can say? And that’s what Gunpla does to me! 6) What does the opening of The Gundam Base Singapore mean to you as local collectors, and how do you see it supporting both newcomers and the wider Gunpla community? Kenny Lim: The opening of The Gundam Base Singapore feels like recognition. It tells me and local collectors that this hobby matters and that our community has grown strong enough to be seen on a global stage. It’s more than just a retail space — it’s a... --- - Published: 2026-02-23 - Modified: 2026-02-24 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/exploria-a-groundbreaking-indoor-nature-experience-opens-at-mandai-wildlife-reserve/ - Categories: EVENTS, PARENTING/EDUCATION - Tags: Exploria, Mandai Wildlife Reserve Exploria, an immersive new indoor multimedia attraction, is opening at the Mandai Wildlife Reserve on 3 March 2026. Spanning 10,000 square metres, it is among Southeast Asia’s largest indoor, nature-themed multimedia attractions, presenting hidden natural worlds in immersive and interactive ways. Designed to appeal to visitors of all ages, Exploria blends science-led storytelling, responsive media and real-world footage to reveal aspects of nature and life usually beyond human reach, from prehistoric giants to microscopic ecosystems and creatures of deep darkness. “The Planet Awakens”, Exploria’s signature light show spectacle at Our Interconnected World, welcomes visitors as they begin their discovery through the different worlds. Photo credit: Mandai Wildlife Group A Journey Through Earth’s Hidden Natural Systems Visitors begin their adventure at the central hub, Our Interconnected World, where a four-metre LED globe called the Biopool sits at the core. The globe pulses like a living heartbeat, symbolising the interdependence of all life. Actions by visitors through interactive elements send visible pulses of light to the globe in real-time, emphasising the idea that small individual choices can create large collective change. The space also hosts The Planet Awakens, a signature light and sound show that synchronises projections, colours and rhythms to set the tone for the worlds ahead. With a tap of their RFID wristbands, visitors activate interactive elements across Exploria, unlocking content and discovering the hidden secrets of each world. Photo credit: Mandai Wildlife Group A recyclable RFID wristband enriches each visit. Guests use it to create a digital avatar, activate interactive installations, collect species badges and unlock hidden surprises throughout the attraction. A live scoreboard at the exit tracks visitor progress, and each profile stays active for a year encouraging repeat visits and friendly competition. The experience also includes Hidden Gems, subtle interactive moments hidden in the environment and Memory Hooks, unique photo stations in each world. Exploria unfolds across five immersive worlds, each with its own theme and sensory experience: 1. Realm of the Giants AR windows in Realm of the Giants bring static installations of prehistoric creatures to life, placing them in real-life landscapes as if they still walked the Earth. Accompanying sound effects and floor vibrations heighten the sense of scale and presence. Photo credit: Mandai Wildlife Group. In this zone, visitors encounter the immense organisms of Earth’s past and present. Monumental installations and augmented reality (AR) “windows” animate prehistoric landscapes, placing visitors face-to-face with dinosaurs and gigantic sea creatures. The highlight is The Giants Show, an eight-minute, 360-degree standing theatre experience that takes guests through 500 million years of life’s history from the rise of giants to mass extinctions. 2. Micro Worlds Micro Worlds lets visitors zoom in on a wonder library of hidden microscopic life, magnifying powerful ecosystems usually invisible to the naked eye. Photo credit: Mandai Wildlife Group. This world explores life at tiny scales. Interactive glass orbs and projection domes magnify the hidden ecosystems of plankton, insect colonies, fungi and bacteria organisms crucial to life on Earth yet invisible without magnification. 3. Bitdeer AI Extreme Frontiers Visitors are transported virtually into some of Earth’s most challenging habitats. Through simulator rooms and virtual expeditions, they witness polar bears on melting Arctic ice, Namaqua chameleons coping with desert heat, and high-altitude migrations of demoiselle cranes habitats few people ever experience firsthand. 4. Infinite Wonderland Hanging foliage simulates the rainforest canopy at Infinite Wonderland’s Sounds of the Forest, where visitors walk amongst lush vegetation brought to life through the symphony of forest calls. Photo credit: Mandai Wildlife Group. This world celebrates the extraordinary biodiversity of rainforests and coral reefs. Layers of sensory detail from dense foliage to vibrant reefscapes reveal wildlife that normally stays hidden in these ecosystems. 5. World of Darkness Visitors navigate labyrinths of mysterious passageways at World of Darkness, where reactive screens hide deep-sea life adapted to total darkness. Photo credit: Mandai Wildlife Group. In a realm without light, visitors learn how life thrives in caves and the deep sea. Remarkable adaptations come to life, including bioluminescent squid, eyeless yeti crabs and blind cave fish. Throughout the journey, visitors may encounter Disruptive Moments narrative interludes that spotlight conservation messages and invite guests to commit to protecting nature. Taken together, the five worlds create an experiential narrative that encourages wonder at life’s diversity and reflection on humanity’s role in the natural world.

Running from 20 February to 8 March 2026, the 120-minute show (with a 15-minute intermission) delivers a fast-paced fusion of illusion, theatrical storytelling and real-time spectacle, making it one of the season’s standout live entertainment events. Presented in Singapore by Base Entertainment Asia, the production draws inspiration from Lionsgate’s globally successful Now You See Me franchise. Instead of recreating scenes from the films, the stage adaptation expands the universe into a live theatrical format where every illusion unfolds before the audience with no edits, no camera tricks, no digital manipulation. The Four Horsemen Take the Stage At the centre of the production are the Four Horsemen, four internationally acclaimed illusionists, each with a distinctive performance style: Andrew Basso (Italy) – Celebrated for his death-defying escape acts, including high-risk water stunts that demand precision and stamina. Gabriella Lester (Canada) – The youngest and only female Horseman, recognised for mastering Houdini-inspired straightjacket escapes at an early age. Matthew Pomeray (United Kingdom) – A contemporary illusionist blending cutting-edge technology with refined sleight of hand. Pablo Cánovas (Spain) – An award-winning performer whose theatrical presence elevates classical magic into grand spectacle. Together, the quartet has performed thousands of shows across major international cities, including residencies on Broadway and in Las Vegas. In Singapore, they present a tightly choreographed production that balances technical mastery with dramatic pacing. A Thrilling Cinematic Experience What distinguishes Now You See Me Live is its commitment to authenticity. The tension is real, the escapes are immediate, and the illusions unfold in full view of the audience. There are no retakes, no post-production effects only skill, timing and execution. The structure of the show maintains strong momentum throughout. High-stakes escapes are layered with interactive elements that occasionally draw audience members into the action, creating a sense of shared suspense. Production design elements such as lighting, soundscapes and multimedia visuals enhance the atmosphere without distracting from the performers themselves. Rather than focusing on a single headline magician, the show rotates its spotlight among the four Horsemen. Each performer anchors a dedicated segment that showcases a different discipline of illusion, from endurance escapes to technology-driven deception. This variety keeps the energy dynamic and the audience continuously engaged. Under the creative leadership of Simon Painter and Tim Lawson, known for large-scale international magic productions, the show achieves a polished and cohesive presentation. While cinematic in scale, it retains the immediacy that only live theatre can deliver. Now You See Me Live succeeds not merely because of its association with a well-known franchise, but because of its execution. The production is disciplined, ambitious and carefully structured, ensuring that each illusion builds anticipation for the next. For anyone looking for an exciting evening full of suspense, impressive stagecraft, and amazing magic, this limited run in Singapore is the perfect chance to see it all live. Now You See Me Live is a truly unforgettable show, one you have to see to believe.

The Marina Bay celebrations are curated in anticipation of the Disney Adventure, Disney Cruise Line’s first cruise ship in Asia, arriving in Singapore and setting sail on her maiden voyage on 10 March 2026. The ship will feature beloved stories and characters from Disney, Pixar and Marvel with three- and four-night sailings at sea designed for families and guests of all ages. “We are excited to co-drive the transformation of Marina Bay into Singapore’s most magical precinct in celebration of the Disney Adventure’s arrival in Singapore. Continuing the success of our tripartite precinct partnership with Marina Bay Sands and STB over the past two years combined with our strategic collaboration with Disney Cruise Line, we aim to further elevate visitorship into the precinct and Singapore as a whole by offering unrivalled retail, dining and travel experiences for UOB cardholders across the region, themed on this momentous occasion. We strive to reinforce UOB’s position as the preferred partner for extraordinary customer experiences as we bring together and deepen engagement with visitors of the Bay and fans of Disney to participate in a range of activities over these two months,” said Jacquelyn Tan, Head, Group Personal Financial Services, UOB. An Adventure Begins Set against the Marina Bay waterfront with iconic landmarks lit in blue, Asia’s first sky show inspired by Disney Cruise Line will set the skies above the Marina Bay precinct aglow. The 10-minute showcase, which will commence from 8. 30pm on 13, 14 and 15 March 2026, invites visitors on a vibrant adventure of visual and musical wonder, as a symphony of fireworks illuminate Singapore’s iconic skyline with brilliantly choreographed displays that can be seen all around Marina Bay. Visitors are invited to enjoy the views from vantage points available across the whole Marina Bay precinct and not to crowd in a particular area. Go on a “journey” through the ship’s seven themed areas – Disney Imagination Garden, Toy Story Place, San Fransokyo Street, Town Square, Wayfinder Bay, Disney Discovery Reef and Marvel Landing, set to a medley of fan-favourite tunes including "When You Wish Upon A Star”, “Let It Go”, “Under the Sea” and “You’ve Got a Friend in Me”. As a special nod to the Disney Adventure homeporting in Singapore and the island city’s rich multicultural heritage, the sky show will also feature designs with a local twist – bringing together Disney Cruise Line and nautical-themed elements, Peranakan-inspired motifs and icons referencing Singapore’s National Flower, the Vanda Miss Joaquim. “Disney Cruise Line marks a defining milestone with the Disney Adventure arriving in Singapore, where Disney’s timeless stories and characters are brought to life through a unique cruise vacation experience. We are thrilled to join and be part of the iconic Marina Bay cityscape, bringing joy and happiness to guests and Disney fans of all ages. This spectacular sky show truly encapsulates the spirit of the Disney Adventure—through fantasy, imagination, discovery, and adventure—and is a testament to the start of more meaningful collaborations throughout Singapore,” said Sarah Fox, Vice President and Regional General Manager, Southeast Asia, Disney Cruise Line. The Perfect Experience in Marina Bay From 26 February to 30 April 2026, visitors to Marina Bay will be treated to the perfect retail, dining and travel experience, with a seafaring twist. Seven locations – UOB Main Branch, Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay, Gardens by the Bay, JW Marriott Hotel Singapore South Beach, One Fullerton, PARKROYAL COLLECTION Marina Bay, Singapore and Swissôtel The Stamford, Singapore – invite visitors to drop in for fun photo opportunities inspired by Disney’s seven themed areas. UOB customers who venture to these seven locations can also embark on quests and be rewarded with limited-edition Disney Adventure-inspired medallions featuring characters representing the ship’s themed areas. Additionally, UOB cardholders who spend a minimum of S$100 at these locations, excluding UOB Main Branch, will also qualify for a lucky draw, with the grand prize being a three-night cruise vacation on the Disney Adventure. On the digital front, UOB TMRW will launch a Disney Cruise Line-themed in-app game in March 2026, available for all UOB customers across ASEAN under the Rewards+ tab. The game will task players to tap on Disney Cruise Line-themed medallions to earn points, which will also be awarded for banking transactions done via the app such as payments and opening new accounts3. Across seven weeks, one winner with the highest score from each market: Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and Vietnam will be selected to win a three-night cruise holiday on the Disney Adventure. Customers can also stand to win exclusive Disney Cruise Line-themed merchandise such as the medallions and limited-edition Disney Cruise Line Samsonite luggage sets designed exclusively for UOB. This activation is part of the third edition of the Marina Bay Precinct Partnership spearheaded by UOB, Marina Bay Sands and STB, with the collective support of partners around the Bay. More than 70 restaurants, hotels, retailers and attractions will join the festivities by offering exclusive UOB card promotions featuring discounts of up to 50 per cent.

To see the collections, please visit our Instagram via this link. Goldheart unveils the NEW 999 Gold Sanrio KoroKoroSweets Collection, the latest chapter in its long-standing collaboration with Sanrio Company Ltd. Designed exclusively by Goldheart, the collection introduces a fresh and playful interpretation of iconic Sanrio characters, brought to life in radiant pure 999 gold. Goldheart has collaborated closely with Sanrio over the years to launch a wide range of jewellery and gold collectibles, including Singapore’s first 999 gold bars, coins, and jewellery featuring beloved Sanrio characters. With each release, the brand continues to evolve its Sanrio offerings through new themes and creative storytelling. The KoroKoroSweets Collection marks a joyful new direction, combining character charm with dessert-inspired designs that feel light-hearted, fun, and highly collectible. THE KOROKORO CONCEPT: ROUND, PLAYFUL, AND FULL OF JOY The name “KoroKoro” draws inspiration from the Japanese expression often used to describe something round, rolling, and irresistibly cute. This concept is reflected in the collection’s soft silhouettes, rounded forms, and playful proportions, giving each character a charming, almost toy-like appeal. Paired with sweet dessert inspirations, KoroKoroSweets captures the happiness and comfort associated with little treats, translated into gold creations that feel both cheerful and meaningful. The collection features five iconic Sanrio characters, each paired with a unique dessert theme that reflects their personality: Hello Kitty is reimagined through the joy of an ice cream sandwich, cheerful, familiar, and timeless. My Melody takes on a soft and gentle expression inspired by a blueberry macaron, reflecting her sweet and tender nature. Kuromi brings a playful edge with a strawberry mint concept, bold, cheeky, and full of attitude. Pompompurin is expressed through honey waffles with chocolate, warm, cozy, and instantly lovable. Badtz-Maru rounds out the collection with a chocolate truffle inspiration, cool, edgy, and unmistakably confident. The 999 Gold Sanrio KoroKoroSweets Collection is available across earrings, pendants, charms, gold bars, and gold coins, offering fans multiple ways to enjoy and collect their favourite characters. Designed for both everyday styling and meaningful gifting, the collection caters to Sanrio fans of all ages as well as gold collectors seeking playful keepsakes with lasting value. The collection starts from $158 for gold coins and $188 for gold bars, while jewellery pieces such as charms and pendants are priced from $528, with earrings from $658. A SWEET TWIST ON COLLECTIBLE PACKAGING Adding to the charm of the collection, the 999 Gold bars and gold coins are presented in specially designed cake box packaging, inspired by the KoroKoroSweets theme. Each box features a layered 3D design with acrylic elements that pop out and can be assembled into a display stand. More than just packaging, the cake box transforms into a decorative keepsake, allowing fans to showcase their gold collectibles at home while extending the playful dessert story beyond the product itself. A JOYFUL ADDITION TO THE GOLDHEART SANRIO COLLECTION Bringing together character charm, playful design, and pure gold, Goldheart continues to grow its Sanrio characters collection with releases that feel fresh, joyful, and full of personality.

As part of the National Ballet of China’s Asia tour, this celebrated two-act ballet transforms Cao Xueqin’s literary masterpiece into a breathtaking stage experience, fusing classical ballet technique with the poetic nuances of Chinese cultural aesthetics. The 2-hour performance follows the romance of Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu, set against the rise and decline of the Jia family. As the ballet unfolds, Jia Baoyu drifts into a dreamlike realm where the souls of flowers, childhood companions, and echoes of past lives weave through an ethereal landscape. Playful innocence shimmers alongside the bittersweet ache of first love and parting, while each movement, costume, and play of light shapes a living reverie — a world both luminous and poetic, hauntingly beautiful and unforgettable. Drawing on over six decades of artistic mastery, the National Ballet of China interprets Cao Xueqin’s novel with subtlety and depth. Every gesture, tableau, and musical phrase reflects the company’s distinctive blend of Western classical technique and Chinese artistic heritage, evoking the story’s romance, longing, and ephemeral beauty for audiences. Performed by the National Ballet of China At the heart of this production is a visionary creative team led by Executive Director and Producer Feng Ying and General Choreographer Tong Ruirui, supported by Scriptwriter Feng Li, Stage Designer Liu Xinglin, Costume Designer Yang Donglin, Lighting Designer Liu Zhao, and Composer Ye Xiaogang, whose evocative score highlights the romance, longing, and ethereal beauty of Jia Baoyu’s journey. Their combined artistry translates the novel’s intricate emotions into an immersive performance, where movement, visuals, and music converge to capture the essence of A Dream of Red Mansions. “The vision to bring A Dream of Red Mansions to life through dance has been close to my heart for many years,” said Tong Ruirui, the General Choreographer of A Dream of Red Mansions Ballet. “Through this ballet, we invite audiences to step into Jia Baoyu’s dream: a space where love, memory, and imagination intertwine. Every gesture reflects the emotional currents of this extraordinary story. It is our hope that audiences will leave with a deep sense of connection to the beauty, longing, and timelessness of these characters’ lives,” he continued. Bringing Tong Ruirui’s vision to the stage, JUST LIVE envelops the performance in world-class lighting, set, and stage design. “We are thrilled to bring the National Ballet of China to Singapore,” said Alain Brochu, Marketing Director of JUST LIVE. “JUST LIVE’s vision has always been to create unforgettable live experiences, and this collaboration allows us to showcase the exquisite artistry of one of the world’s premier ballet companies while immersing audiences in the poetic, dreamlike world of the Rong Mansion,” he added. Experience a performance where every visual, every note, and every breath of movement evokes the essence of A Dream of Red Mansions, reflecting on love, destiny, and the fleeting nature of life itself.

That’s how Okinawans say cheers in their dialect, where karii (kanji: 嘉例) means happiness. Likewise, Karii, the newest opening by established Japanese F&B veteran EN Group at Suntec City (#B1-170), aims to set this karii trend of happiness, joy and cheers to a healthy and good long life. Touted as Singapore’s first Okinawan street food concept, Karii brings the vibrant flavours of Okinawa to the heart of Singapore. It celebrates the island’s sun-soaked spirit, coastal ingredients and warm street-food culture – pairing comforting Okinawan dishes with refreshing beers, highballs and Shikuwasa drinks for that true Okinawan experience. Opening its doors on 4 February 2026, Karii offers a warm, Japanese modern space with lightwood finishes and subtle Okinawan bingata patterns, overlooking Suntec City's Fountain Court. Showcasing a menu of taco rice and Okinawa-style sandos to hearty bowls and island bites, every dish is crafted for fast, delicious enjoyment without compromising quality. The chill eatery offers diners options for on-the-go takeaways as well. Rooted in EN Group's Japanese culinary heritage, Karii blends Okinawa's easygoing charm with Singapore's love for bold, satisfying eats. Perfect for dine-in, takeaway or delivery. Karii invites everyone to eat, explore and say "Karii! ". Kuwatchi Sabira (くわっちーさびら): Let’s Eat~ Left to right: Taco Rice, Okinawan-style Onigiri A highlight of the gleeful offerings at Karii is Taco Rice, a fusion of the Tex-Mex flavours in American tacos with Japanese rice instead of tortillas. This was created in the 1980s to cater to the American troops stationed at US military bases in Okinawa after WWII, becoming popular as a local comfort food that’s bold, affordable, and perfect for everyday meals. Karii takes this further with different variants: Hokkaido Pork Taco Rice ($6. 80) and Beef Taco Rice ($7. 80). These come with seasoned minced beef or pork, with cabbage arugula, cheese, cherry tomatoes and Japanese rice. Spice up your rice with add-ons from $2 onwards. Toppings include Goya Tempura ($2), Teriyaki Chicken ($3. 50), Taco Beef ($3. 50), Taco Pork ($3), Rafute or Okinawan stewed pork belly ($4), Mentai Ebi Tempura ($5), and Unagi Kabayaki ($5. 50). A no-carb version is also available. The Japanese onigiri is a seaweed-wrapped triangular rice balls with fillings within. Meanwhile, the Okinawan-style Onigiri ($8. 50) that Karii serves is bigger; an onigiri sandwich or onigirazu brimming with hearty fillings like Spam and dashimaki omelette specially made with Okinawan eggs – for a comforting, savory bite that’s uniquely Okinawan. Spam, too, arises from the strong American presence, and the canned meat became a staple due to its affordability, long shelf life, and versatility. Besides the Classic Okinawa Onigiri ($5. 50), other fillings available include the Goya Tempura ($7. 50), Teriyaki Chicken ($8. 50), Taco Pork ($8. 50), Taco Beef ($9), Rafute ($9), Mentai Ebi Tempura ($9. 50) and Unagi Kabayaki ($9. 50). Dine-in customers can also top-up $3. 50 for the set that includes two appetisers of the day, mozuku su and Okinawan white miso soup. If you’re hungry but rushing for time, you can conveniently order a la carte Okinawan-style onigiri to go. Another delightful dish on Karii’s menu is Okinawa Soba ($8. 80 for small, $13. 80 for regular). This is a simple, hearty dish that is full of local pride for Okinawans, and is often referred to as “suba” in the local dialect of Uchinaaguchi. Unlike traditional Japanese soba that uses buckwheat flour for firmer and nuttier strands, Okinawan soba uses wheat flour for that thick and chewy bite. Even Okinawan soba broth is different, as it uses a pork and bonito (katsuobushi) stock instead of the traditional bonito-based broth. Each bowl served at Karii is topped with rafute, beni shoga (red pickled ginger), and chikuwa fish cakes in a comforting and collagen-rich paitan tonjiru pork-based broth. For dessert, crunch cheerfully on Sata Andagi ($2. 50 for 3pcs), traditional Okinawan donuts with a crispy exterior and a dense, cake-like interior. Its name, which literally means “sugar-oil-fried”, originates from a Chinese-Japanese technique due to the island’s location. It’s similar to kaikouxiao, a fried sesame egg cake found in Chinese cuisine. Karii’s Sata Andagi comes in 3 tasty flavours: Original, Okinawan Brown Sugar, and Purple Sweet Potato, a superfood staple in Okinawa. Go for sides such as Okinawa’s famous peanut-based Jimami Tofu ($2. 80), nutrient-rich seaweed appetiser Mozuku Su, and the island’s unique snack of Mozuku Tempura ($2. 8). Sea grapes Umibudou ($3. 80), Tori Karaage ($3. 50) and more are also available. Spotlight on Shikuwasa, Okinawan Brown Sugar, and More Shikuwasa, Okinawa’s native citrus, is renowned for its unique sour taste with hints of both sweetness and bitterness. While it looks like calamansi limes, they’re more closely related to the mandarin family and taste like a cross between lemon and lime. At Karii, enjoy these subtropical citrus fruits in desserts like Shikuwasa Sorbet with Shikuwasa Honey ($3), in creative beverages like Shikuwasa Shio Soda ($6. 5), and even Goya Shikuwasa Honey: made using Goya or Bitter Gourd, a staple of Okinawan food even today. Also synonymous with Okinawa is kokuto or Okinawan brown sugar. This is a rich, mineral-dense, less-refined sugar and it’s often used to season or braise food, in dessert, enjoyed on its own, or in beverages like Karii’s Okinawan Kokuto Hai:($9) and Shikuwasa Goya Hai ($9) Also hailing from Okinawa and celebrated by the glass at Karii is Orion Beer ($8. 50). This is a popular Japanese lager, particularly beloved in its home of Okinawa, known for its mild, crisp taste, rich body, and refreshing finish, often brewed with Okinawan rice, which gives it a unique character. All prices are subjected to 10% service charge and prevailing GST. See you soon at Karii!

Set against the sun-kissed sands and crystal-clear waters of Tanjong Beach, Colbert’s project turns a familiar holiday hotspot into an open-air sculptural playground. With his signature Lobster persona, the artist introduces a series of monumental and inflatable works directly onto the shoreline, blending humour, pop culture, and art-historical references to create a vibrant, interactive environment. At the centre of this whimsical takeover is Lobster Ice Cream, an eight-metre-tall steel sculpture that dominates the beach, establishing a new iconic artistic landmark for the city. Alongside the beach installation, Colbert’s public art initiative coincides with his solo exhibition, Temple of the Sunflower, at Whitestone Gallery Singapore. Together, the public art installation and gallery exhibition highlight Singapore’s growing status as a cultural capital in Asia, demonstrating how art can thrive in both intimate gallery settings and shared public spaces. Transforming Tanjong Beach into a Pop-Art Playground Colbert’s Lobster takeover extends beyond the monumental sculpture. Across the sand, visitors encounter a series of large Lobster inflatables such as Lobster Shark, Lobster Octopus, and Lobster Fish which reinterpret the artist’s alter ego in fantastical marine hybrid forms. Inspired by Claes Oldenburg’s soft sculptures and the playful energy of mascots, these works invite interaction, photography, and shared social experiences. The beach setting, traditionally associated with relaxation and recreation, encourages audiences to engage with contemporary art in a spontaneous and joyous way. This ambitious project exemplifies Colbert’s commitment to art for all, blurring the boundaries between public leisure and high art. By placing large-scale, whimsical works directly within the everyday environment, he creates a surreal and democratic experience that is accessible to everyone. Interview with Philip Colbert Our team spoke to Philip Colbert, who shared more insights about Lobster Beach, his artistic vision, and Singapore’s place in the international art scene. Read on to find out more. 1) “Lobster Beach” is described as one of the most expansive artist-led public art interventions in Singapore’s history. What considerations guided your approach to creating work that exists simultaneously as art, landmark, and public leisure experience? Philip Colbert: I have been lucky to visit Singapore many times and feel excited by the evolving contemporary art scene. To be able to be part of that with the largest public art takeover in the history of the city is an amazing opportunity. The idea of having a giant lobster in disguise as a melting ice cream on Tanjong beach sounded perfect; the context couldn’t be more apt for the sculpture. The location at the end of the beach opposite the legendary Tanjong beach club was also perfect. I wanted the sculpture to be imposing and impactful as people first set eyes on it. Also, the lights at night really brings your attention to the sculpture. 2) Tanjong Beach is a space associated with relaxation and recreation rather than formal art consumption. How does situating your Lobster works in this context change the way you think audiences engage with contemporary art? Philip Colbert: I love the energy of beach life. It’s so much more exciting than in a gallery. The beach activity adds energy to the environment and creates a very exciting space for art to exist alongside the fantasy of beach life. I loved seeing the artworks rising up above a volley ball game or someone doing back flips. A lovely sense of freedom exists on the beach. 3) Your Lobster persona has become both a visual signature and a conceptual device. How has this alter ego evolved in the transition from gallery settings to large-scale, semi-permanent public installations like Lobster Ice Cream? Philip Colbert: I love how art in public spaces connects to people on a much more democratic level. The spirit of art for all. Also, it is surreal to see a giant lobster disguised as an ice-cream, towering 9M above you as you walk along a moonlit beach walk. Surrealism in life. Blurring the boundaries between art and reality. 4) The inflatable Lobster hybrids reference both pop culture mascots and art-historical precedents such as Claes Oldenburg. How consciously do you balance accessibility and intellectual depth when working in the public realm? Philip Colbert: I love the spirit of accessibility in my work and to focus on universal symbols that I feel contain deep meaning for all. The power of common language to unlock profound poetry, and most importantly to also have humour – humour shakes the cage. 5) This project coincides with your solo exhibition at Whitestone Gallery and your presence at Art SG. How do these three platforms—public space, gallery, and art fair inform or challenge one another within your practice? Philip Colbert: I think creating a city take over with multi locations and mediums widens the reach the work has in the city. For those who take interest in my sculptures they can devlve deeper into my world at the gallery show. I have been lucky that over the years my work has gained a lot of supporters in the city. 6) Singapore has positioned itself as a growing hub for public art and international cultural exchange. From your perspective, what distinguishes Singapore as a site for ambitious, long-term public art projects today? Philip Colbert: I think the combination of lush green nature, contemporary skyscrapers and modern architecture is a defining aspect of the city. It’s a visually very distinctive city with a great relationship with nature. You can be on a beach right now and in 15 minutes be at the rooftop of Marina Bay Sands drinking cocktails, while overlooking the city skyline.

Alif Aircho is a name synonymous with energy, creativity, and passion in the performing arts. As a dancer, choreographer, and co-director of the dance studio AK. Kreates, Alif has built a career that thrives on movement, expression, and artistic innovation. Yet, beyond the spotlight and studio, he is also navigating the rewarding and sometimes challenging journey of fatherhood. Alif Aircho dancing on stage Recently, Alif has taken a bold step into acting through Berani Lakon! , an acting competition that pushes him beyond his comfort zone. In this candid interview, he shares how he balances his professional ambitions with family life, nurtures his daughter’s growing interest in dance, and embraces new creative challenges. Balancing multiple roles is no small feat. Our team spoke to Alif Aircho, who wears the hats of a dedicated father, a passionate choreographer, and a business co-director all while exploring new avenues in performance. Together with his wife and business partner, Kayte Willis, Alif leads AK. Kreates with a focus on creativity, mentorship, and inclusion in the arts. Parenting, he explains, doesn’t stop when the studio doors close. By including his children in his work and modeling a love for dance, he hopes to instill confidence, discipline, and a genuine appreciation for the performing arts. At the same time, stepping into acting has tested him in unexpected ways especially performing in Malay, a language outside his comfort zone. Through it all, Alif shares practical strategies, personal reflections, and heartfelt advice for anyone balancing a creative career with family life. Alif Aircho and his family Read on to find out more: 1) As a father, choreographer, and co-director of a dance studio (ak. kreates), how do you prioritise your time and energy across these roles, and what principles guide your work–family balance? Alif Aircho: Balancing so many roles in my life has never been easy. I make a point of setting aside time for each role, so every part of my life gets a fair share of my attention. Although priorities shift during different phases of my career, when it comes to family, I’ll always stop what I’m doing and be there when needed. Alif Aircho and his wife teaching dance 2) You run your creative business alongside your wife and co-director, Kayte Willis. How has parenthood influenced the way the two of you collaborate professionally and make decisions as business partners? Alif Aircho: Switching between business partners and husband and wife has always been a challenge for us. Communication is essential — we remind each other that decisions made as business partners can differ from those made as spouses. We do our best to avoid conflict and find solutions that benefits both the business and our family. 3) You recently stepped into acting through Berani Lakon! . What motivated you to try acting? How has the experience in Berani Lakon! challenged you to grow beyond your comfort zone? Alif Aircho: I’ve always been curious about what acting would feel like and how well I might do in this medium. My love of entertainment motivated me to give it a try. Even though I felt comfortable in other performance areas, acting brought new challenges and skills I hadn’t encountered before. The Malay language has always been difficult for me because I wasn’t very fluent, but as I progressed through the rounds of Berani Lakon! , I became more confident with the script and used my performance strengths to bring my scenes to life. 4) The performing arts often demand long hours and emotional investment. What stategies have you developed to stay present as a parent while navigating the demands of your profession? Alif Aircho: I feel incredibly lucky to make a living from dance. I believe that “the more you love it, the more you’ll thrive in it. ” Because dance is for everyone, I include my kids in the activities at my studio whenever I can. My oldest daughter, Alika Kayla, is currently very active in competitive and performance-focused hip-hop. She’s a member of our kids’ group, AK Kidz, which recently competed at the UDO APAC Street Dance Championship in Bangkok, Thailand. 5) Your daughter has shown an interest in dance at a young age. How do you encourage her passion while ensuring she grows up with confidence and a healthy relationship with the arts? Alif Aircho: My wife, Kayte Willis, is the one who takes the lead in nurturing our daughter’s dance training. I truly believe dancing is in Alika’s DNA — she moves like both of us. With the guidance, skills, and values Kayte and I have gained over the years, we hope to pass them on to our children. 6) Looking back on your journey so far, what advice would you offer to parents working in creative or non-traditional careers who are striving to build both a fulfilling family life and a sustainable profession? Alif Aircho: Let your kids see you at work as a creative professional. I discovered my passion for dance as a child, and I found joy in it from a very young age. If your children can view your work the same way, they’ll better understand your passion and be more likely. Alif Aircho’s journey demonstrates that a fulfilling life in the performing arts and a meaningful family life are not mutually exclusive they can, in fact, complement each other. By prioritising presence, embracing challenges, and sharing his passion with his family, Alif exemplifies how creative professionals can thrive personally and professionally. His venture into acting is yet another reminder that growth often lies outside our comfort zones, and that curiosity, resilience, and love for both art and family remain guiding lights. --- - Published: 2026-02-02 - Modified: 2026-02-02 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/numberblocks-a-family-musical-makes-its-singapore-debut-at-sands-theatre-marina-bay-sands-on-7-and-8-february-2026/ - Categories: ENTERTAINMENT, PARENTING/EDUCATION - Tags: BBC’s CBeebies, Marina Bay Sands, Numberblocks - A Family Musical, Sands Theatre The educational children’s programme Numberblocks - A Family Musical, created by the UK’s BBC, has now been re-imagined as a vibrant family musical, and Singapore audiences will be able to experience it live for the first time at Sands Theatre, Marina Bay Sands, on 7 and 8 February 2026.

The milestone edition comes at a pivotal moment, with Asia-Pacific accounting for 52% of global aviation industry growth in 2025, fuelled by the world’s fastest-growing passenger and cargo traffic markets. Demonstrating the sector's momentum, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) projects airline net profits of US$41 billion in 2026, with passenger volumes exceeding 5 billion travellers. Asia-Pacific will continue to see strong demand in 2026, with load factors projected to reach 84. 4% in 2026, an all-time high for the region. As one of the world’s most influential aerospace and defence exhibitions, Singapore Airshow 2026 will once again convene global industry leaders, business leaders, government and military delegations, innovators and investors to exchange ideas, forge partnerships and chart the next era of aerospace, defence and space. A Global Platform for Aerospace and Defence More than 1,000 participating companies from over 50 countries and regions will gather at Singapore Airshow 2026, representing the full spectrum of commercial aviation, defence, space, MRO, advanced manufacturing and emerging technologies. Leading aerospace and defence firms including Airbus, CATIC, Bell, Boeing, COMAC, GE Aerospace, Gulfstream, Leonardo, Lockheed Martin, MBDA, Rolls-Royce, RTX, Saab, SIA Engineering, ST Engineering and Thales will be joined by a new wave of defence technology innovators. Companies such as Anduril, Helsing, Quantum Systems and Shield AI, alongside Quikbot in autonomous and uncrewed systems, DroneShield in counter-UAS, Edgecortix in AI computing, Hawkeye 360 in space-based intelligence and surveillance, Radia with the world’s largest aircraft and Transcelestial with a laser-based space communications, reflecting the industry's transformation towards next-generation technologies and innovations. Country pavilions from Australia, Austria, Canada, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States will anchor the exhibition, with expanded representation from the Italian Trade Agency Pavilion and the China Pavilion, reinforcing the Airshow's position as Asia-Pacific's premier aerospace gateway. Collectively, these pavilions also occupy the largest total floor space ever in Singapore Airshow’s history. Singapore Airshow as an Economic Catalyst Singapore Airshow's contribution extends well beyond the exhibition halls. The 2024 edition generated over S$391 million in economic activity while attracting more than 50,000 trade attendees and 60,000 public attendees. The 2026 edition is positioned to deliver similar scale, amplified by expanded programming including Space Summit 2026. Singapore Airshow’s economic contribution footprint cascades across Singapore's hospitality, transport, logistics and business services sectors, while catalysing longer-term value through investment flows, strategic partnerships, talent and workforce development. “As aviation and defence adapt to shifts driven by sustainability and digitalisation, Singapore Airshow provides a neutral setting for stakeholders to engage and build partnerships with long-term relevance,” said Mr Leck Chet Lam, Managing Director of Experia Events, organiser of Singapore Airshow. “Reaching our 10th edition reflects how Singapore Airshow has grown alongside the industry and how its role continues to expand, particularly as Asia-Pacific continues to drive the growth of the global aviation business. ” Space Summit 2026: From Air to Orbit For the first time, Singapore Airshow will extend its reach beyond Earth's atmosphere into Space with Space Summit 2026 (2 to 3 February 2026, Sands Expo and Convention Centre, Marina Bay Sands). Backed by Singapore's Office for Space Technology & Industry (OSTIn) and the Economic Development Board (EDB), the Summit establishes Singapore as Asia-Pacific's focal point for space sector dialogue. Under the theme "New Frontiers: Shaping a Responsible and Inclusive Space Future," the program convenes policymakers, space agencies, investors and innovators to address infrastructure development, sustainable practices, capital deployment and the in-space economy — forecasted by McKinsey to reach US$1. 8 trillion by 2035. Across two days, Space Summit 2026 will feature keynote addresses, leadership dialogues and focused panels on launch system innovations, the future in-space economy and Asia-Pacific market growth. Confirmed participation includes senior representatives from major space agencies1 such as the Asia Pacific Space Cooperation Organisation (APSCO), Agência Espacial Brasileira (AEB), the German Space Agency (DLR), Indian National Space Promotion and Authorisation Centre (IN-SPACe), Malaysian Space Agency (MYSA), the Philippine Space Agency (PhilSA), Republic of Kazakhstan, UAE Space Agency. The Summit will also see keynote insights from Michael Schoellhorn, Chief Executive Officer of Airbus Defence & Space, and perspectives from ST Engineering as a Founding Partner, together with a diverse line-up of senior female leaders from across the global space ecosystem. With strong interest from the global space value chain, Space Summit 2026 will bridge the aviation and space sectors – enabling cross-industry collaboration across connectivity, emerging technologies and commercial space applications. Advancing Sustainable Aviation Asia-Pacific is accelerating sustainable aviation through early SAF mandates, regional production capacity and growing investments. This momentum positions Asia-Pacific as a critical proving ground for SAF commercialisation and sustainable aviation innovation. Industry projections indicate SAF will represent 4–5% of global jet fuel consumption by 2030, with Singapore targeting 1% SAF adoption by 2026. Neste, the world's leading renewable fuels producer, returns as Sustainable Aviation Partner. The company will share operational insights at AeroForum on SAF scale-up, supply chain evolution and practical pathways to decarbonisation.

Four final-year undergraduates from Nanyang Technological University (NTU) are launching Maid of Honour, a new initiative promoting fair employment practices and improved well-being for Foreign Domestic Workers (FDWs). The initiative complements the Ministry of Manpower's (MOM) national efforts that emphasise the entitlement of FDWs to one rest per week, and one mandatory rest day per month. The team’s survey of 105 current FDW employers in Singapore found that 1 in 3 employers do not regularly provide their FDWs with a weekly rest day. The survey also found that around 1 in 2 FDWs worked more than 9 hours a day. However, employers largely acknowledge the importance of well-being for their FDWs, with 81. 9% of respondents agreeing that weekly rest days are important for mental and physical health. In addition, 76% agree that FDWs should have privacy for sleep and personal time. While this suggests that attitudes among employers are largely positive, these views are not consistently reflected in practice according to MOM’s guidelines. “There are more than 300,000 live-in migrant domestic workers (MDWs) in Singapore, providing essential yet often undervalued caregiving and domestic labour in our homes. As Singapore’s population ages, reliance on MDWs will only continue to grow. It is therefore critical that MDWs are treated fairly and with dignity, and accorded the same basic rights and protections as other workers,” says Stephanie Chok, Executive Director of the Humanitarian Organisation for Migration Economics (HOME). In partnership with HOME, Maid of Honour will launch a public roadshow at Jurong Regional Library from 31 January to 1 February 2026, with an official opening address at 3 p. m. on 31st January by Dr Hamid Razak, Member of Parliament for West Coast-Jurong West GRC. Featuring personal stories from FDWs and employers, as well as educational content on fair employment practices, the exhibit provides visitors with a deeper understanding of the challenges and contributions of FDWs. Visitors can also learn practical ways employers can ensure fair employment, such as providing rest days, respecting privacy, and maintaining reasonable workloads. This encourages a more informed approach to fostering respectful employer-FDW relationships. The exhibition will remain open to the public until 28 February 2026. About Maid of Honour Maid of Honour is an initiative by four final-year communication students from Nanyang Technological University’s Wee Kim Wee School of Communication and Information. The initiative aims to improve the respect and well-being of foreign domestic workers (FDWs) in Singapore by raising awareness on fair employment practices and promoting fair and respectful employer-FDW relationships.

Rooted in time-honoured techniques and expressed through understated luxury, the seasonal offering spans six meticulously curated set menus, complemented by à la carte highlights and an extensive selection of festive takeaway creations. Available for dine-in at Orchid Hotel Singapore, as well as for takeaway and gifting, the celebrations run from 1 January to 3 March 2026. From the auspicious opening toss to indulgent abalone, lobster and charcoal-smoked specialties, Ya Ge’s Chinese New Year menus are thoughtfully designed for both intimate gatherings and grand reunion feasts, offering a sense of generosity that defines the season. An Auspicious Beginning Festivities commence with the Prosperity Yu Sheng with Yellowtail and Crispy Eel, a vibrant interplay of freshness and indulgence. Silky yellowtail is layered with crisp eel and dried shredded codfish, accompanied by finely julienned carrots and radish, pickled ginger, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, melon seeds and sesame seeds. Binding the elements together is the chef’s special citrus dressing, made from freshly squeezed orange and lemon juice, gently reduced to intensify its aroma. Bright, fragrant and uplifting, it sets a celebratory tone of abundance and good fortune. Six Curated Set Menus for Every Occasion To mark the season, Ya Ge presents six Chinese New Year set menus crafted to suit celebrations of varying scales and styles. From the approachable Abundance Set Menu to the luxurious Opulent Set Menu, alongside the Success, Reunion, Fortune and vegetarian Longevity menus, each offering balances auspicious symbolism, premium ingredients and culinary finesse. Available for both per-person dining and large-format tables, the menus cater seamlessly to festive gatherings, from close-knit family meals to lavish reunions. The Opulent Set Menu: A Statement of Festive Luxury At the pinnacle of the offering is the Opulent Set Menu, created for the most auspicious celebrations. The journey begins with a deeply nourishing Double-boiled Collagen Soup with Shark’s Fin, Crab Meat and Prawn Dumpling, followed by Steamed Red Garoupa prepared in classic Hong Kong style. Stir-fried Australian Lobster with Glutinous Rice Wine Sauce delivers layered depth through gentle fermentation and subtle heat, while Stewed Yellow Jade Sea Cucumber with Nostoc and Organic Cauliflower adds quiet richness. The feast continues with Eight Treasures Vegetables wrapped in lotus leaf, and concludes with Braised 5-Head Abalone paired with Inaniwa udon in a luxurious abalone sauce, a menu that speaks confidently of abundance through restraint and finesse. A Thoughtful Vegetarian Interpretation For guests seeking a plant-forward celebration, the Longevity Set Menu offers a refined vegetarian experience rooted in Ya Ge’s culinary philosophy. Highlights include Vegetarian Goose Yu Sheng and a comforting Double-boiled Matsutake Mushroom Soup with Nostoc and Bamboo Pith. Premium fungi and organic vegetables take centre stage in dishes such as Braised Mocked Abalone with Organic Cauliflower and Sautéed Yunnan Black Tiger Palm Mushroom with macadamia nuts and asparagus. Balanced and deeply satisfying, the menu concludes with festive desserts that honour tradition. Nourishing Elegance, One Bowl at a Time Among the seasonal highlights is the Double-boiled Golden Fish Maw with Asian Moon Scallop and Imperial Tribute Chrysanthemum, a dish that exemplifies patience and restraint. Old hen is simmered slowly into a full-bodied broth, then gently stewed with prized fish maw, Asian moon scallop and Huangshan wild tribute chrysanthemum. Silken and restorative, the soup is traditionally associated with nourishing yin, enhancing complexion and promoting well-being. Precision from Sea to Flame The Steamed Yellow Croaker with Fennel in Chicken Broth showcases precision and purity. Marinated for hours with fennel, thyme, rosemary and bay leaf, the fish is gently steamed in a rich chicken broth that infuses each bite with subtle sweetness and savoury depth. Clean, aromatic and restrained, it rewards quiet appreciation. Lobster, Reimagined Inspired by Beijing-style stir-fry traditions, the Stir-fried Australian Lobster with Glutinous Rice Wine Sauce balances boldness with elegance. Fermented glutinous rice wine and Pi Xian broad bean paste lend warmth and complexity, enhancing the lobster’s natural sweetness without overpowering it. Textures and Contrast Adding crunch and contrast, the Deep-fried Deshelled Prawn with Fish Floss and Shrimp Roe delivers immediate satisfaction. Crisp prawns are coated in a house-made dressing enriched with shrimp roe and fish floss, resulting in a savoury-sweet interplay that is indulgent and moreish. Wrapped in Fragrance A quietly luxurious vegetarian centrepiece, the Sautéed Eight Treasures Vegetables with Yunnan Black Tiger Palm Mushrooms wrapped in Lotus Leaf brings together ginkgo nuts, macadamia nuts, lotus seeds, edamame, baby corn, pine mushrooms, white fungus and bamboo shoots. Wrapped and gently steamed, the lotus leaf releases a delicate fragrance when opened at the table. Smoke, Char and Theatre The Smoked Grilled ‘Pi Pa’ Chicken commands attention through its meticulous preparation. Marinated, air-dried, deep-fried, sauced, charcoal-grilled and finally smoked, the chicken emerges lacquered, aromatic and deeply savoury. The final smoking just before service heightens its fragrance, creating a memorable moment of ceremony. Comfort and Familiarity Steamed Jasmine and Glutinous Rice with Chinese Sausage and Waxed Meat anchors the feast with comforting familiarity. Fragrant jasmine rice and sticky glutinous grains absorb the savoury richness of Chinese sausage and waxed meat, bringing warmth and balance to the table. A Refreshing Finish Desserts offer a gentle conclusion, from the Chilled Red Ruby with Jackfruit and Corn to Mandarin Orange Mochi filled with custard and mandarin orange pulp, delivering a refreshing sweet-tart close. Festive Takeaway and Gifting Beyond the dining room, Ya Ge extends the celebrations with an extensive selection of festive takeaway sets and gifting options, available from 1 January to 3 March 2026 with a three-day advance order.

Founded by leading dermatologist and hotelier, Dr. Angeline Yong, in collaboration with SkinCeuticals as its official medispa flagship in Singapore, SSKINS Medispa delivers both results and restorative indulgence at its Tanglin Road locale. This year, SSKINS Medispa is introducing its new Scalp 360 Rebirth treatment, as well as the Kérastase Scalp BioBalance Programme, to tackle a myriad of scalp issues and restore optimum scalp health. “As a dermatologist and hair restoration surgeon specialising in scalp and hair disorders, I observed that many patients’ scalp concerns such as shedding, thinning, sensitivity and inflammation are often overlooked or inadequately treated. In Singapore’s humid climate and with increased styling and product use placing added stress on the scalp, I saw the need for a more holistic, medically grounded approach that goes beyond medications or basic head spas to address root causes through comprehensive scalp health treatments,” says Dr. Yong. “We invite our clients to experience the difference at SSKINS Medispa. ” SkinCeuticals X Glow Corrector Vital-C Treatment, S$316 (until 16th Feb, U. P. S$395) + Complimentary Collagen Eye Mask & Jade Eye Mask valued at S$100 Experience a brighter kind of renewal with a radiance-boosting facial that targets pigmentation, refines texture, and awakens tired, uneven skin. Designed to restore clarity and luminosity, this treatment merges precision exfoliation with clinical-grade vitamin C brightening for a complexion that glows with confidence. Steps: The treatment starts with a thorough skin reset that melts away buildup and awakens its natural clarity. First, a refined dermaplaning sweep reveals a smoother, silkier surface – creating the ideal canvas for the SkinCeuticals medical-grade chemical peel that follows. With the skin freshly polished, the corrective actives absorb more deeply and perform with greater precision. The skin is next immersed in a powerful correcting synergy: transdermal ultrasound technology paired with SkinCeuticals Discoloration Defense. This brightening duo works to minimise uneven pigmentation, fade dark spots, and enhance skin clarity while infusing the complexion with glow-boosting nutrients. With every infusion, the skin feels more hydrated, more refined, and visibly more radiant from within. A revitalising face massage follows, boosting circulation and helping the skin absorb each layer of active nourishment. The treatment concludes with a luxurious double-mask layering that drenches the complexion in hydration and radiance-enhancing botanicals, leaving the skin brighter, smoother, and beautifully refreshed. Great for: • Uneven skin tone and pigmentation • Dull or tired-looking complexion • Dark spots, melasma, and post-inflammatory marks • Rough texture or lack of radiance • Pre-event brightening and instant glow SkinCeuticals+ Anti-Blemish Radiance Plus Treatment, S$188 (Until 16th Feb, U. P. S$235) + Complimentary Dermaplaning valued at S$100 When breakouts, congestion, and post-blemish marks begin to dull your complexion, your skin needs more than just cleansing – it needs clarity and balance. Powered by advanced SkinCeuticals formulations, this treatment is a targeted clarifying facial designed to purify the skin, calm blemish-prone areas, and restore a fresh, healthy glow without compromising skin comfort. Steps: The treatment begins with a comprehensive skin-refining reset that gently lifts away buildup, dead skin cells, and surface congestion, allowing the complexion to feel instantly smoother and more breathable. As impurities are cleared, the skin becomes more receptive to targeted blemish-control care. Ultrasonic exfoliation works beneath the surface to dislodge trapped debris and excess sebum from pores, helping reduce congestion while refining skin texture. This is followed by antibacterial energy therapy that targets blemish-causing bacteria, calming active breakouts and promoting a clearer, healthier skin environment. A refreshing oxygen-infused mist then bathes the skin in lightweight hydration, soothing redness and replenishing moisture without clogging pores. This step restores balance to blemish-prone skin, leaving it calm, comfortable, and refreshed rather than stripped. As the treatment progresses, natural radiance begins to return. Skin appears clearer, smoother, and visibly brighter – with a refined glow that feels clean, balanced, and healthy. Bonus: Enjoy a complimentary dermaplaning boost with your treatment. This gentle exfoliation clears away surface buildup and fine facial hair, leaving the skin smoother, brighter and better primed to absorb active skincare formulas; perfect for a fresh, radiant festive glow! Great for: • Active breakouts and blemish-prone skin • Congested pores and excess oil • Post-acne dullness or uneven tone • Skin needing gentle but effective clarification NEW: The SSKINS 360 Scalp Rebirth, S$338 (U. P. S$450) + Complimentary Additional Low-level Laser Therapy valued at S$190 A stressed, congested, or imbalanced scalp can slow hair growth and weaken follicle vitality. The SSKINS 360 Scalp Rebirth treatment is crafted to reset scalp wellness at every layer – purifying, oxygenating, reactivating circulation, and strengthening the roots for healthier, fuller-looking hair. Steps: The journey begins with a soothing pre-treatment mask that softens buildup and prepares the scalp for deeper purification. A specialised purifying shampoo then works to lift away excess sebum, pollutants, and impurities, creating a clean foundation for renewed scalp function. This is followed by a second cleanse – customised with either a refreshing or hydrating formula – to rebalance the microbiome, calm sensitivity, and leave the scalp feeling fresh, light, and comfortable. Once the scalp is fully clarified, a warm oxygen-infusion steam envelops the roots with nutrient-rich moisture, enhancing softness, hydration, and overall scalp nourishment. The experience deepens with a meridian scalp massage using Head Bojin, helping improve microcirculation, release tension, and awaken sluggish follicles for healthier growth potential.

Taking place from 24 January to 1 February 2026 (10am to 9pm daily), the CNY Festive Market marks the first time Chinese New Year festivities are being held along the newly rejuvenated Smith Street. The precinct will come alive as a vibrant hub for cultural experiences, festive shopping and family-friendly entertainment in the heart of Chinatown Singapore. A Celebration of Tradition with a Local Touch Rooted in tradition and shaped by local culture, the CNY Festive market brings Chinese New Year customs to life through engaging stage performances and hands-on workshops. Beyond watching the festivities unfold, visitors are invited to participate and create meaningful Lunar New Year moments of their own. While selected workshops are ticketed, all performances and walkabout activities are free for the public. Led by celebrated local poet and calligrapher Mr Guo Shu Ming (郭书明先生), also known as Nan Shan Zi (南山子), the calligraphy workshop offers participants a chance to experience calligraphy as a living art form that bridges heritage and contemporary Singaporean identity. Known for blending classical techniques with local references, Mr Guo often weaves his own poems into his works - drawing inspiration from everyday life, from hawker favourites like bak chor mee to familiar Singaporean scenes. Adding to the festive energy are lion dance performances and workshops conducted by established troupes, including Tian Eng (天鷹). Through guided, hands-on sessions, children and youths will be introduced to the movements, rhythms and cultural significance behind this iconic Chinese New Year tradition. Festive Walkabouts and Family Fun Enhancing Smith Street’s celebratory atmosphere, the beloved God of Fortune (财神爷) will make walkabout appearances on selected weekends, delighting visitors with cheerful interactions while distributing blessings to usher in good luck and prosperity for the New Year. “We are delighted to launch the inaugural Heng Ong Huat @ Chinatown Smith Street CNY Festive Market, bringing the community together to celebrate tradition, culture and festivities right in the heart of Chinatown,” said Ms Lim Yick Suan (林玉璇), Executive Director (执行董事) of Chinatown Business Association (CBA) (牛车水商联会). “This CNY market marks a new chapter for the newly rejuvenated area, transforming it into a lively destination where locals and visitors can create memorable Lunar New Year experiences together. ” Festive Shopping and Local Flavours Complementing the cultural festivities is a curated line-up of local and lifestyle brands offering festive treats and gifts. Participating brands include Starbucks, Boon Tong Kee, Tong Heng Delicacies, Spring Court, and Elegance of Nanyang, inviting visitors to browse, shop and savour local flavours while soaking in the festive spirit along Smith Street.

Now in its sixth edition, the showcase will take place from 22 January to 22 February 2026. Titled “HOBBYHORSE: Rhythm and Forms of Play,” the exhibition takes inspiration from the Year of the Horse and brings together 24 local artists alongside 15 retail brand collaborations, curated by Vertical Submarine, complemented by curated installations throughout the mall. Designed as an immersive art-meets-retail experience, the showcase features dynamic installations and interactive encounters that invite shoppers and art lovers to engage with the equine spirit of movement, energy, and exploration. Creative Intersections “HOBBYHORSE: Rhythm and Forms of Play” is listed in the itinerary of Singapore Art Week 2026, and will be presented on two fronts by tenants and the mall. At the tenant level, brands are partnering with various artists to co-create works of art that will be displayed in their stores. This year, eight of the fifteen participating brands are making their debut in Creative Intersections, namely Ace Club Tennis, Allbirds, AlphaTheta, DJI, Herschel, Hydro Flask, TOMS, and Wingstop. At the mall level, Funan collaborates with local artists to create public exhibits, such as “In the Measure of Horseshoes” at the Grand Stairs by Wendy Victoria Mack, a brand-new animation “Horse Shtick! ” for the Kinetic Wall by Gavin Lee, who is debuting his creative work this year, as well as six Passion Horses designed by various artists. #1 GRAND STAIRS IN THE MEASURE OF HORSESHOES The Funan Grand Stairs at Level 1 drift into a quiet dream, transforming into the body of a resting horse with its hair flowing gently down each step. Visitors are invited to wander through this imagined mane, counting the horseshoes nestled within - much like counting sheep, only this time, horses. Let the rhythm of the count guide you - find them all, and a reward awaits. PLAY A GAME OF “SPOT. COUNT.

It measures 13m high and 9m wide and is constructed of 1,271 motorised light blades and embossed aluminium panels. Mirrored ceilings complement this spectacular structure to heighten its visual impact. “Horse Shtick! ” Please click here to see the Kinetic Wall animation. “Horse Shtick! ” follows a hobby horse named Hobbi as it emerges from its box and encounters the world with wide-eyed curiosity, from bustling streets and passing crowds to the ceaseless rhythm of urban life. Through this playful exploration, Hobbi discovers that it is not limited by its simple stick form. Instead, its body becomes a conduit for transformation and imagination, capable of becoming anything it wills itself to be. What begins as a familiar childhood object gradually reveals itself as a symbol of creative possibility and reinvention. The artwork celebrates the joy of embracing one’s potential, encouraging viewers to see play as a powerful driver of self-expression and growth.

From Christmas to Chinese New Year, the mall featured immersive installations by Van Cleef & Arpels debuting its first Christmas forest in Singapore and Clé de Peau Beauté’s Dreams Express Holiday Pop-Up. Visitors also enjoyed exclusive pop-ups from Dior Beauty, Ladurée, BLACKPINK, and BYREDO, alongside new luxury boutique openings from Piaget, Chanel, and Van Cleef & Arpels’ duplex boutique. These experiences exemplify ION Orchard’s approach to luxury retail: combining visually engaging installations with meaningful interactions, curated for families and discerning shoppers alike. To gain insights into festive shopper behaviour and the evolving landscape of luxury retail in Singapore, our editorial team spoke with Ms Yeo Mui Hong, Chief Executive Officer of Orchard Turn Developments. Interview with Ms Yeo Mui Hong, Chief Executive Officer of Orchard Turn Developments 1. Reflecting on ION Orchard’s recent festive installations, how did shoppers respond, and did the engagement meet your expectations? Ms Yeo Mui Hong: The response has been very encouraging, particularly as we move from Christmas into Chinese New Year. At ION Orchard, festive programming is designed to flow across seasons. This is reflected in our upcoming Chinese New Year "Prosperity in Flow" campaign. Over the past weeks, we have observed shoppers spending longer periods engaging with immersive brand experiences. For instance, installations by brands such as Van Cleef & Arpels and Clé de Peau Beauté during the Christmas season have encouraged visitors to pause, explore details, and return with family members or friends. These moments of repeat engagement signal a deeper connection beyond visual appeal. As we approach Chinese New Year, this engagement naturally evolves into more intentional interactions around gifting, craftsmanship and symbolism, particularly within the Watches & Jewellery space. Shopper behaviour suggests that visitors are responding positively to experiences that feel thoughtful, culturally relevant and easy to enjoy together, which aligns closely with our expectations for the festive season. 2. What insights have you gathered about consumer behaviour during this festive period, and how is it shaping the way luxury retail experiences are designed in Singapore? Ms Yeo Mui Hong: One key insight is that festive shoppers today are more intentional. During periods like Christmas and Chinese New Year, purchases are closely tied to meaning, whether it is gifting for loved ones, celebrating milestones, or marking the start of a new year. At ION Orchard, visitors are spending more time exploring concepts that blend visual spectacle with meaningful interaction. Our Christmas highlights such as Van Cleef and Arpels' debut installation, Clé de Peau Beauté's Luminous Holiday Showcase, and Ladurée's exclusive pop-up, illustrate how curated experiences can transform a simple trip to the mall into a moment of discovery. This has translated into stronger engagement with brands that combine craftsmanship, storytelling and experience. In the Watches & Jewellery space, shoppers are also spending time understanding the symbolism behind designs and materials, particularly pieces associated with prosperity, longevity and renewal. Luxury purchases are now no longer impulsive but considered and values driven. We also observed families looking for experiences that allow them to spend quality time together. In our recent "Live the Race" campaign during the Singapore Grand Prix Formula 1 Race period, ION Orchard collaborated closely with brands such as LEGO to deliver immersive pop-ups, dynamic visual displays, and gamified activities—including exclusive app rewards and social sharing incentives. This initiative infused the energy of motorsport into luxury retail, inviting visitors to participate, celebrate, and co-create memorable moments. The idea was to turn the mall into a stage where everyone could feel the pulse of the world's most glamorous motorsport, making luxury retail more dynamic, communal, and memorable. 3. How does ION Orchard balance creating a festive, photogenic environment with driving meaningful sales for retailers? Ms Yeo Mui Hong: At ION Orchard, we balance creating a festive and visually engaging environment with driving meaningful outcomes for brands by ensuring that every campaign connects atmosphere with brand discovery. Festive moments are designed not as standalone photo points, but as part of a complete shopping and lifestyle journey that encourages deeper engagement. This approach is evident in The Pinnacle of Christmas campaign, where festive decor is paired with luxury led experiences that offer unique experiences and invite shoppers to spend time exploring brand stories. Installations such as Van Cleef and Arpels' winter installation and Clé de Peau Beauté's Dreams Express holiday pop-up bring craftsmanship and creativity into shared spaces, encouraging shoppers to linger before continuing their discovery in store. Many luxury brands further build on this engagement by offering store exclusives, guided walkthroughs, and craft or artist demonstrations. These experiences help translate festive interest into meaningful purchasing decisions, whether through the discovery of new collections or renewed interest in signature pieces, particularly within the Watches and Jewellery space. Beyond luxury, the festive experience at ION Orchard feels complete because it extends naturally into dining and lifestyle. Our shoppers can take a break at Southeast Asia's first Prada Caffè after shopping, or families can unwind at Taste Paradise or ION Sky—enjoying a well-paced visit that combines gifting, dining and shared moments, allowing shoppers to move seamlessly across categories and leave with both memorable experiences and meaningful purchases. 4. With prestigious new boutiques from Piaget, Chanel, and Van Cleef & Arpels already open, what does this say about Singapore’s position as a luxury retail hub? Ms Yeo Mui Hong: The arrival of flagship boutiques and world-first store concepts at ION Orchard highlights Singapore's growing importance as a global launchpad for luxury. Major maisons recognise that Singapore offers a rare combination of a resilient and sophisticated local customer base, alongside a steady flow of international visitors who actively seek out new and elevated retail experiences. This makes Singapore one of the most strategic markets for brands to introduce new formats, test innovative ideas, and present their storytelling at its highest level. At ION Orchard, the Watches & Jewellery space is a particularly strong reflection of this confidence. Brands are... --- - Published: 2026-01-12 - Modified: 2026-01-14 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/navigating-2026-wellness-trends-interview-with-evelyn-teo-chief-marketing-officer-of-lac/ - Categories: INTERVIEW - Tags: LAC Entering 2026, many of us are rethinking how we care for ourselves. Rather than piling on complex routines, the focus has shifted to simple, everyday habits that support both physical and mental well-being. Singapore’s health and wellness market, valued at USD 17. 1 billion in 2024, is projected to nearly double to USD 41. 6 billion by 2033, reflecting growing demand for accessible, everyday health solutions. Convenience is now a major driver in this evolution. Consumers are looking for products that are easy to incorporate into daily life, whether that means portable formats, single-serve sachets, or travel-friendly options that fit seamlessly into morning routines, desk drawers, gym bags, or travel plans. These solutions make it easier to maintain consistency without adding complexity. At the forefront of this lifestyle-led wellness movement is LAC (pronounced L-A-C), a global health and wellness brand that emphasises low-effort, high-impact supplementation. Its range of products is designed to support health anytime, anywhere, through convenient formats that meet the demands of modern life. Two standout offerings are: LAC Probiotic Complex 25 Billion CFU Powder – A daily gut health boost that supports digestion, nutrient absorption, and immunity. Each easy-to-take sachet delivers up to 14 different probiotic strains from the two major probiotic families, making it easy to maintain digestive support even on the busiest days. LAC GastroRX® Digest Enzymes – A concentrated extract of fermented fruits and vegetables in convenient sachets designed to replenish digestive enzymes while supporting digestion and nutrient absorption, especially after heavier meals. To understand how consumers are approaching wellness in 2026 and how LAC aligns its products with evolving lifestyles, our editorial team spoke with Evelyn Teo, Chief Marketing Officer for LAC, about trends, challenges, and the future of health supplements. Interview with Evelyn Teo, Chief Marketing Officer for LAC 1. Many consumers are aware of the importance of gut health, but maintaining consistent digestive support can be challenging. From LAC’s consumer insights, what are the most common obstacles people face, and how do products like the LAC Probiotic Complex and LAC GastroRX® Digest Enzymes help address these daily challenges? Evelyn Teo: While awareness of gut health is growing, consistency remains a key challenge. Busy schedules, irregular meals, frequent dining out, and simple forgetfulness often disrupt supplement routines. Digestive discomfort after heavier meals can also affect daily well-being, making it harder to stay consistent over time. LAC addresses these challenges with many of our products that fit seamlessly into consumers’ lifestyles. For example, both LAC Probiotic Complex 25 Billion CFU Powder and LAC GastroRX® Digest Enzymes come in single-serve sachets, making them easy to carry and simple to take anytime - whether at work, after meals, or while travelling. This removes common barriers and allows consumers to maintain digestive support without making major changes to their daily routines. 2. The gut health category is increasingly crowded. How does LAC Probiotic Complex and LAC GastroRX® Digest Enzymes stand out in terms of formulation, strain diversity, and the benefits they offer for everyday wellness? Evelyn Teo: LAC differentiates itself through scientifically based formulas that balance efficacy with everyday practicality. LAC Probiotic Complex supplement series is available in a range of targeted potencies of up to 100 Billion CFUs and contains up to 14 strains from the two major probiotic families, with every strain carefully selected to work synergistically. This combination of tailored potency and broad strain diversity supports digestive health, immunity, and overall gut microbiome resilience. Similarly, LAC GastroRX® Digest Enzymes complements this with a highly concentrated extract of fermented fruits and vegetables to help replenish naturally occurring enzymes, supporting smooth digestion and enhanced nutrient absorption. Beyond formulation, LAC products come in various formats apart from capsules, including a tasty powder option, making it especially appealing to individuals who have difficulty swallowing pills or prefer a more enjoyable way to supplement. This flexibility broadens accessibility without compromising efficacy. Together, these products address modern dietary challenges, such as processed foods and irregular eating, through purposeful formulations rather than generic, one-size-fits-all solutions. 3. As we enter 2026, how would you describe the biggest shift in how consumers approach health and wellness today compared to even a few years ago? What is driving this change? Evelyn Teo: Today’s consumers are moving from doing more to doing better. Rather than striving for perfect, complicated routines, many are shifting toward maintenance and focusing on balanced habits they can realistically sustain over time. Essentially, consumers want routines that support both their physical and mental well-being, reducing pressure or decision fatigue rather than adding to it. This shift is driven by busier lifestyles, increased stress, and a growing awareness of preventative health. As a result, consumers are prioritising consistency and choosing solutions that are effective yet feasible to incorporate into their daily routine. For LAC, this evolution reinforces the importance of truly understanding how health fits into people’s lives today. It guides our commitment to continually enhance our product offerings to help consumers build wellness habits that are both achievable and sustainable over the long term. 4. We’re seeing a move away from complex routines toward simpler, more manageable wellness habits. How is this “low-effort, high-impact” mindset influencing how supplement brands need to innovate and communicate with consumers? Evelyn Teo: Brands need to continually innovate to align with these emerging wellness habits. At LAC, this means developing products through a holistic wellness approach combined with targeted nutrition, formulated to support specific health needs. This enables us to create targeted products in convenient formats that fit effortlessly into modern lifestyles while delivering clear, functional benefits. We also believe it is essential to simplify messaging and communicate benefits in a way that feels relevant to everyday life, rather than overwhelming consumers with technical jargon. We emphasise practical outcomes and organise our product ranges into clear categories, making it easy for consumers to identify what suits their needs. The human element reinforces this approach: our retail staff are constantly kept up to date and trained to provide the best health advice to consumers in-store, while... --- - Published: 2026-01-11 - Modified: 2026-01-11 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/a-30-year-legacy-si-chuan-dou-hua-restaurant-welcomes-the-lunar-new-year-with-refined-festive-offerings/ - Categories: DINING - Tags: Si Chuan Dou Hua Restaurant As the Year of the Horse approaches, Si Chuan Dou Hua Restaurant celebrates its 30th anniversary with an exquisite line-up of Lunar New Year specialities that celebrate culinary heritage, festive traditions, and family togetherness.

The Kohaku Vampire Lifting Facial, offered at Ikeda Spa, is a professional-grade, non-surgical treatment designed to lift, tighten, and rejuvenate the skin at a cellular level. Powered by advanced Japanese enzyme technology, it stimulates natural collagen production, enhances circulation, and detoxifies the skin, resulting in a firmer, smoother, and more youthful appearance. Ideal for those seeking visible, long-lasting results without invasive procedures, this facial brings together science-backed innovation and luxurious care. What Is the Kohaku Vampire Lifting Facial? Inspired by the mythical concept of eternal youth, the Kohaku Vampire Lifting Facial uses a living enzyme mask to activate the skin’s natural regenerative processes. As the mask hardens, it stimulates deep lymphatic drainage to flush out toxins while boosting blood circulation. This process delivers oxygen and nutrients directly to the skin tissues, creating a visible non-surgical lifting and tightening effect. Developed in Japan by Dr. Kozu, the treatment focuses on restoring the skin’s natural function at a cellular level rather than merely addressing surface concerns. Through specialised transfer messenger enzymes, the skin is encouraged to function more optimally, supporting long-term skin health and youthful vitality. Key Benefits The Kohaku Vampire Lifting Facial is designed to support: Skin lifting and tightening Brightening of dull, tired-looking skin Deep hydration with improved moisture retention Softening of neck lines, smile lines, and wrinkles A more refined facial structure for a plump, healthy glow and youthful appearance The Science Behind the Treatment The Kohaku Vampire Lifting Facial is designed to restore optimal skin function by targeting three key systems: Facial muscles are stimulated to lift and smooth the skin, creating a firmer appearance. Blood circulation is enhanced to deliver oxygen and nutrients that support cellular regeneration. The lymphatic system is activated to flush out toxins and impurities, helping to slow premature ageing and improve skin clarity. What to Expect During the Treatment The experience begins with a personalised consultation, followed by a thorough double cleanse and pore extraction. A jelly-like enzyme mixture, blended with a potent serum and specialised powder, is then applied to the face, neck, and décolletage. As the enzymes activate, blood circulation increases and fine red striations may appear along lymphatic and circulation pathways, an expected and visible sign that the skin is being revitalised at a deeper level. After approximately 10 to 15 minutes, the mask hardens and is carefully removed using warm towels. The treatment concludes with moisturisation to deeply hydrate the skin, leaving it feeling firmer, smoother, and visibly rejuvenated. For enhanced sculpting results, clients may opt to include the Kogao Smile Lines Correction, a structural adjustment technique designed to improve facial contours. Recommended Frequency & Treatment Options For optimal and longer-lasting results, the treatment can be followed with a 6-session at-home routine using the official box set, which includes: Vampire Powder Serum Mixing Bowl Brush For professional treatments in-spa, the following options are available: Kohaku Vampire Lifting Facial (90 minutes): Double cleanse, extraction, Vampire Mask and Neck Decollete Massage Kohaku Vampire Lifting & Tightening Facial (120 minutes): Includes the exclusive Kogao Smile Lines Correction Special Promotion: First-time customers can enjoy 53% off their first trial session until the end of the year. Kohaku Vampire Lifting Facial - Review Trying the Kohaku Vampire Lifting Facial felt like stepping into a new level of non-surgical facial rejuvenation. My session began with a thorough double cleanse and gentle pore extraction, which immediately left my skin feeling refreshed and ready for the treatment. When the signature enzyme mask, a carefully blended mixture of potent serum and specialised powder was applied to my face, neck, and décolletage, I could feel a subtle warming and tightening sensation as the treatment began to work. There was a noticeable pulsing and tightening effect across my skin, a sign that circulation was being stimulated and the skin was being revitalised at a deeper level. As the mask hardened, I felt a gentle lifting sensation across my cheeks and jawline, as if the skin was being supported from beneath. The lymphatic drainage felt soothing yet effective, and I could sense that my facial muscles were being subtly engaged. By the time the mask was removed, my skin felt firmer, smoother, and more hydrated. Areas that had slight sagging, such as my cheeks and jawline, appeared lifted, while smile lines and neck lines looked softened. My overall skin tone appeared brighter and more even, giving a refreshed and youthful glow. Beyond the immediate results, I could appreciate how the facial works to improve long-term skin health. The combination of gentle muscle stimulation, improved blood circulation, and lymphatic detoxification left my skin feeling revitalised and balanced. For those who include the optional Kogao Smile Lines Correction, the facial contours can appear even more sculpted and harmonious. Overall, the Kohaku Vampire Lifting Facial provided a luxurious, science-backed experience that delivered visible lifting, hydration, and renewed skin vitality all without invasive procedures. The Kohaku Vampire Lifting Facial offers a powerful non-surgical alternative for anyone looking to achieve firmer, lifted, and more youthful-looking skin. By addressing skin concerns at a deeper, cellular level, it delivers visible results while supporting long-term skin health.

This year, the Ultraman Trading Card Game (TCG) offers the perfect solution. With its latest Starter Deck 03 and Booster Pack 05, the game combines nostalgia, strategy, and collectible excitement, making it the ultimate gift for fans across generations. Whether you’re a parent introducing your child to the legendary Ultra Heroes, a friend hunting for a standout Secret Santa gift, or a dedicated collector seeking exclusive cards, the Ultraman TCG delivers an immersive tabletop experience that brings the iconic universe of Ultraman into your home. The Ultraman Trading Card Game brings iconic Ultra Heroes and Kaiju to life with fast-paced, strategic battles for fans of all ages. From Starter Deck 03 for newcomers to the Ultra Deck 01 “Ultraman Tiga & Ultraman Blazar”, and the 1st-anniversary Booster Pack 05 “Heroes of the Radiant Dawn” featuring exclusive “RRRR (Quad Rare)” cards by Yukinobu Tatsu, the renowned illustrator behind the hit manga DAN DA DAN, there’s something for everyone. Blending nostalgia, artistry, and modern gameplay, the Ultraman TCG is the perfect gift for collectors, families, and new players alike. To get a deeper insight into the resurgence of trading card culture and how Ultraman is connecting generations of fans, our team spoke to Rudy Ng, Vice President of Tsuburaya Fields Entertainment International. Read on to find out more. Interview with Rudy Ng, Vice President of Tsuburaya Fields Entertainment International 1) Why are consumers especially in Singapore, Hong Kong, and across Southeast Asia so drawn to nostalgic, Y2K-era products right now, and how does Ultraman fit into this trend? Rudy Ng: In a fast-paced, digital-first world, I think people are craving comfort and connection, leading to the rise of nostalgic ‘analog’ trends. For many of us in Southeast Asia, the Y2K era represents the "golden days" of our childhood, where we woke up early to watch cartoons and traded stickers at school. That emotional anchor is incredibly powerful. Ultraman fits perfectly into this trend because it isn’t just a "retro" brand; it is a cultural legacy that continues to inspire across generations. Parents who grew up mesmerized by the special effects and imitating the Spacium Beam are now introducing their kids to it, allowing them to relive that magic from a new perspective. This turns nostalgia into an active, shared experience, revitalizing the values of hope and courage for a whole new generation. 2) Trading cards have evolved from being seen primarily as children’s toys to becoming high-value collectibles and a form of personal expression for adults. What factors have driven this evolution? Rudy Ng: I believe it’s the rise of the “kidult” or "Forever Fan. " The kids who grew up playing these games are now adults with purchasing power, but they haven’t lost that passion; they’ve just evolved how they express it. We’ve moved from cards being just "toys" to being appreciated for their artistry, rarity, and investment value. Adults today curate their collections like art galleries, seeking high-quality finishes and exclusive collaborations. It’s also a form of identity; having a rare Ultraman card on display connects you to a community that understands its worth. We honor this shift by treating our cards as premium assets by commissioning world-class artists to create bespoke designs that exemplify the Ultraman universe, while also ensuring value in the actual production with premium foil finishes and elevated card quality. We want to make sure that owning one feels valuable both emotionally and physically. 3) How is Tsuburaya leveraging a classic and beloved brand like Ultraman to connect with a new generation of collectors who value nostalgia, rarity, and community? Rudy Ng: We satisfy older fans with deep cuts of nostalgia, like the classic Ultraman Tiga, while bridging to new fans through fresh storytelling through characters in the latest Ultraman series or movies. A great example is our recently launched Ultra Deck 01. It features a team-up between Ultraman Tiga (a '90s legend) and Ultraman Blazar (a modern hero) that has never been presented in the TV shows. This “dream team” perfectly exemplifies part of what we want to achieve with the game. The parent gets excited for Tiga, the kid gets excited for Blazar, and suddenly you have a 40-year-old collector and a 10-year-old player sitting at the same table, battling on equal ground. 4) The Ultraman Trading Card Game blends nostalgia with modern gameplay and exclusive artwork, including collaborations such as the recent Yukinobu Tatsu Booster Pack 05. How important are these contemporary elements in keeping the franchise relevant to both new players and lifelong fans? Rudy Ng: They are vital. Next year Ultraman will celebrate its 60th anniversary, and to keep a brand alive for decades, you can’t just rely on the past — you have to remix it. The collaboration with Yukinobu Tatsu, the creator of the hit manga DAN DA DAN, is a perfect example. Tatsu-sensei is a current hitmaker, but also a lifelong Ultraman fan. By having him illustrate Alien Metron for our 1st Anniversary, we created a bridge between Ultraman fans and DAN DA DAN fans. These collaborations act as a "refresh button," giving longtime fans a new way to see their heroes while catching the eye of a trendy audience who might be discovering us for the first time. 5) Looking ahead, how do you see the Ultraman Trading Card Game contributing to the growth of trading card culture and fan communities in Southeast Asia, particularly in bringing families and collectors together? Rudy Ng: Southeast Asia has a vibrant community culture, and we want the Ultraman Card Game to be the heartbeat of that. We aren’t just building a game; we’re building a playground with the spirit of community and collaboration. We designed the game to be simple enough for children to learn, but deep enough for adults to find many exciting ways to enjoy the game, lowering the... --- - Published: 2025-12-22 - Modified: 2025-12-22 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/bountiful-harvest-and-new-beginnings-verandah-rooftop-rotisserie-celebrates-the-year-of-the-horse-with-a-grand-chinese-new-year-buffet/ - Categories: DINING - Tags: Momentus Hotel Alexandra, Verandah Rooftop Rotisserie Verandah Rooftop Rotisserie at Momentus Hotel Alexandra welcomes the Year of the Horse with a grand celebration of abundance, vitality and prosperous renewal.

Taking the spotlight this year are festive roasts that embody the robust celebratory mood of the season. While roast pork is a ubiquitous food item for almost every Chinese New Year celebration, Verandah’s roast pork belly is elevated this year with the unique application of vanilla. Vanilla-Scented Crackling Pork Belly makes use of vanilla pods to infuse subtle floral notes into the juicy tender pork belly roast, that surface as you bite into the ‘oh-so-crispy’ crackling. As its name suggests, the 14-Day Shio Kombu Butter Aged Angus Ribeye is aged for two weeks with shio kombu (Japanese seasoned kelp) fortified butter to achieve the perfect savoury flavour, with umami notes from the butter enhancing the natural flavour of the beef. Adding a spot of action to the dining experience, Verandah will also serve up their coveted ‘Sha Pi’ Suckling Pig, in a ‘live’ station, available exclusively on Chinese New Year’s Eve and the first day of the Chinese New Year.

Among some of the highlights are Verandah’s festive favourites - Golden Lava Cheese Baked Lobster and Braised Eight-Head Abalone, two auspicious dishes served tableside to kick off the dining experience. Sweet succulent rock lobster is dressed in a golden salted egg sauce to bring out the flavour of the shellfish, while the tender abalone symbolising a ‘meaty’ year of good fortune and excess, is braised in its flavourful jus for your enjoyment. Whet your appetite further with an impressive selection of cold appetizers. The Duo of Murotsu Oysters, features plump Japanese oysters from the Hyogo prefecture, cured two ways for guests to enjoy its natural flavours and in the traditional sweet and savoury Teochew style that uses a house blend of Asian herbs and aromatics to ‘pickle’ the oyster. Other rarely seen traditional favourites such as Drunken Chicken with Aged Shaoxing and Wolfberries and Cold Pork Trotter Jelly with Pickled Mustard Greens, will tingle your taste buds with their sweet, sour and spicy flavours. Not to be missed in the buffet spread is the Black Truffle “Phoenix” Chicken, a satisfying fried chicken dish brimming with the complex savoury flavours of squid paste and scented with truffle. Seafood lovers will also delight in the selection of marine delights - Poached Prawns spiked with a distinctively warming and sharp ginger-scallion dip; sweet Steamed Scallops, and the Duo of Sea Asparagus and Pacific Clams - a festive braise with meaty shellfish, dried oysters, flower shiitake mushrooms and black moss - prized ingredients that the Chinese associate with wealth and prosperity. Underscoring the menu are comforting dishes like Longevity Noodle with Crab Roe & Trout Caviar, and the hearty Fragrant Cured Meat ‘Lap Mei Fan’ with wax sausages, pork belly and duck leg, nostalgic nods to home-style festive comfort. Finally, sweeten the new year with Verandah’s selection of delightful traditional and new desserts that symbolise joy, success and good fortune in the year ahead.

This brand-new production of the beloved classic is making its only stop in Asia in Singapore, bringing the timeless story to life for audiences of all ages. From dazzling visuals to unforgettable songs, it promises a magical theatre experience for families, couples, and Disney fans alike. A Beloved Classic Reimagined Based on Disney’s iconic 1991 animated film, Beauty and the Beast remains one of Broadway’s most celebrated musicals. The original production ran for more than 13 years and toured 37 countries worldwide. This new production, produced by Disney Theatrical Group and presented in Singapore by Base Entertainment Asia, has been meticulously reimagined with breathtaking sets, elaborate costumes, and cutting-edge stage technology. Audiences can expect to be transported into the world of Belle and the Beast with spectacular visuals, intricate choreography, and the nostalgic, spellbinding music of Alan Menken, Howard Ashman, and Tim Rice. Iconic songs such as Belle, Gaston, Be Our Guest, and the Oscar-winning title track, Beauty and the Beast, are performed live, keeping the magic alive for longtime fans and first-time viewers alike. Stellar Cast Bringing the Story to Life Leading the show are Shubshri Kandiah as Belle and Brendan Xavier as the Beast, both returning to Singapore after acclaimed performances in previous Disney productions. Shubshri is best known locally for her portrayal of Princess Jasmine in Aladdin the Musical (2019), while Brendan captured hearts as Kristoff in Frozen the Musical (2023). Their chemistry on stage brings depth and warmth to the timeless love story. The supporting cast is equally impressive, featuring Rohan Browne as Lumiere, Gareth Jacobs as Cogsworth, Jayde Westaby as Mrs Potts, Jackson Head as Gaston, Adam Di Martino as Le Fou, and Mark Owen-Taylor as Maurice. Completing the ensemble are talented performers including Hayley Martin as Babette and Alana Tranter as Madame, alongside a versatile ensemble cast that delivers both comedy and emotion, ensuring every scene sparkles with life. Spellbinding and Family-Friendly Musical From the moment the curtain rises, Beauty and the Beast the Musical immerses the audience in a magical world of romance, humour, and music. The production strikes a perfect balance between grand spectacle and intimate moments, making it appealing to both adults and children. The costume and set designs are breathtaking, transporting viewers to the Beast’s castle with elaborate detail, while the lighting and technical effects enhance the enchantment without overwhelming the story. Shubshri and Brendan deliver standout performances, with powerful vocals and expressive acting that bring the characters’ emotions vividly to life. The supporting cast adds humour and charm, particularly during lively ensemble numbers such as Be Our Guest, which is a highlight of the show. Overall, the musical succeeds in capturing the magic of Disney while offering fresh interpretations that keep the story feeling new and exciting. It is an engaging, heartwarming experience that appeals to both nostalgic adults and young audiences experiencing the tale for the first time. Beauty and the Beast the Musical in Singapore is more than just a stage show; it’s a full family-friendly experience filled with music, spectacle, and timeless storytelling.

Moving beyond traditional decorations, the mall’s The Season Aglow immerses visitors in interactive art, whimsical installations, and homegrown talent, creating moments to pause, play, and participate. Guiding this creative vision is Melanie Yeap, Head of Retail at Pontiac Land Group, who oversees Millenia Walk’s festive programming and community initiatives. Our team spoke with Melanie to hear how, from Roy Wang’s neon-lit Dreams of Santa Paws to curated artisan markets and interactive storytelling adventures, the mall has embraced its Creative Neighbourhood initiative to showcase Singaporean artistry, foster community, and create a holiday experience that is imaginative, engaging, and memorable. Read on to find out more. Interview with Melanie Yeap, Head of Retail for Pontiac Land Group 1) This festive season, Millenia Walk has focused on community and creativity rather than traditional decorations. What inspired you and the team to take this fresh approach? Melanie Yeap: With the MW Creative Neighbourhood initiative, our vision has always been to create spaces where people connect through creativity, design, and the art of everyday living. Over the years, we’ve seen how our community grow - from long-time tenants to emerging artisans, and even the families who visit every weekend. This year, we wanted to celebrate the festive season by bringing people together. “The Season Aglow” is about celebrating the small joys, shared moments, and the imaginative spirit that make our community unique. By shifting the spotlight to creativity and homegrown talent, we hope to inspire a Christmas experience that feels truly local and meaningful. 2) How did the collaboration with Roy Wang and FACTORY come about, and what were the key goals in bringing “Dreams of Santa Paws” to life? Melanie Yeap: Our first artist collaboration was with Brooklyn-based artists Wade & Leta last year, and this year, we wanted to shine the spotlight on a Singaporean artist. We are excited to be collaborating with Roy and his creative studio FACTORY, not simply because he’s one of the rising design stars in the local and international arena, but also because his original creation Meowly is a beloved character that embodies mindfulness, play, and curiosity, which are the values that deeply resonate with our MW Creative Neighbourhood vision. Roy’s approach to blending art, design, and emotion and his ability to infuse warmth and playfulness into experiential work aligned perfectly with what we had in mind. With Dreams of Santa Paws, our goal was to transform The Great Hall into a glowing, interactive dreamscape - a space where visitors could pause, reflect, and reconnect with the simple joys of the season. The neon-lit carousel and whimsical animal characters invite people of all ages to slow down and rediscover wonder in everyday moments. 3) The Season Aglow highlights homegrown artists and designers. How does Millenia Walk select and support local creatives in shaping its festive experiences? Melanie Yeap: Supporting local and regional talent has always been one of our core pillars. As the MW Creative Neighbourhood, we are committed to being a space where emerging artists, independent makers, and creative entrepreneurs can be seen, heard, and celebrated. Our selection process goes beyond aesthetics. We look for partners whose values align with ours: creativity with purpose, craftsmanship, community-building, and a willingness to explore unconventional ideas. This season, that philosophy comes to life through collaborations with Roy Wang and FACTORY, the Sunday Social Market, Museum Art & Co, and local brands under Crane Living’s Winter Atelier. Our role is to curate thoughtfully, provide space and visibility, and uplift these creatives through meaningful, sustained partnerships. 4) What initiatives or design elements were included to ensure visitors of all ages can pause, interact, and create meaningful memories? Melanie Yeap: We designed the entire festive experience around three principles: pause, play, and participate. Pause:The striking, neon-lit “Dreams of Santa Paws” installation, and the cosy seating pockets within and around the carousel serve as mindful invitations to slow down and be present. Play:The interactive and kinetic installations like the “Dreams of Santa Paws” carousel and Commune’s Merry-Poly Living Room encourage light-hearted exploration and play. Participate:Our lineup of craft workshops, creative markets, storytelling adventures, and gifting activations were curated so families and friends can make, craft, and share something together. Across every touchpoint, we wanted visitors from young children to art lovers to feel welcomed, engaged, and delighted. 5) How do you balance the mall’s commercial objectives with creating immersive, artistic, and interactive experiences for visitors? Melanie Yeap: For us, creativity and commerce don’t sit on opposite ends, instead they support one another. When we create experiences that are meaningful, imaginative, and emotionally resonant, people naturally want to spend more time here. And when they feel a genuine connection to the space, they discover new brands, explore more offerings, and form deeper relationships with our tenants. Our approach is intentional: we aim to pair immersive art with retail discovery. The Christmas market connects independent makers with new audiences. Workshops increase footfall and dwell time, and our gift-with-purchase collectible ties artistic appreciation to festive rewards. By designing experiences that enrich people’s lives, we uplift both our community and our commercial ecosystem in a sustainable, authentic way. 6) What is your vision for Millenia Walk as a hub for creativity and community beyond the festive season, and how do installations like this shape that vision? Melanie Yeap: Our long-term vision is to shape Millenia Walk into a true Creative Neighbourhood, a place where stories are shared, ideas take flight, and creativity is part of everyday life. Installations like Dreams of Santa Paws are not just seasonal attractions but they are expressions of what we stand for. They show our commitment to championing local talent, reimagining public spaces, and creating moments that invite curiosity and connection. As we move into 2026 and beyond, visitors can expect more collaborations with artists, more community-led programming, and more creative activations that blur the boundaries between art, design, culture, and retail.

For Singapore cricketer Rezza Gaznavi and his wife Hillary Nicole Segura Castro, this season has been filled with joy, challenges, and a renewed sense of purpose. Our team spoke to Rezza and Hillary to understand how they are navigating this meaningful chapter while gearing up for the upcoming SEA Games. Interview with Rezza Gaznavi and Hillary Nicole Segura Castro For Rezza Gaznavi 1. Congratulations on becoming a father! How has fatherhood influenced your mindset, motivation, or emotional outlook as you prepare for the SEA Games? Rezza: Thank you. To my mind, fatherhood is a longer journey than a few weeks of experiencing a newborn but from the little exposure that I have had, this initial phase has taught me to trust my gut, be in the present, and, of course, enjoy the moment. This is applicable to cricket and the SEA Games. Many a time, we are overawed by the big occasion when we should just enjoy and seize it. It has been a satisfying and fulfilling journey thus far and I can say it has injected in me a dual sense of purpose and confidence. My wife and daughter complete me and is the comfort space I need. I also make sure I do my best so that when the time comes for me to tell my child, Halisme, to do her best, I have conviction in my voice. 2. Balancing elite training with caring for a newborn is a big transition. What does your daily routine look like now, and what adjustments have you made to manage both roles well? Rezza: Yes, tell me about it! The irony is there is no longer a routine; the routine revolves around the baby. The adjustments are always made on the sleeping front; I minimized sleep to “create time”. I also put in sessions to train whenever I can, not just at the team-designated sessions because I must juggle on the other hand being a father, a husband, and a lawyer. I make the most of my time and have become realistic about what I can and cannot do with the limited time I have. For this competition, I prioritized skills sessions to ensure my game is well-oiled and try to play my role to the best of my ability without trying to do more, unnecessarily. 3. As captain of the Men’s Cricket Team, what kind of support, whether from your wife, family, or coaches has been most meaningful for you during this period? Rezza: They say it takes a village to bring up a child. I think it is somewhat similar with an athlete. Maybe you do not need so many people to assist but you do need people to assist. Many people have sacrificed for me, and I am indebted to them. My wife, sweet yet strong like a rock, makes everything in my life more meaningful. She has taken to motherhood like a fish to water (lucky me)! It is hard to put into words how difficult a new mother’s job is. Unlike that of a father, a mother’s life changes radically instantly. The baby is immediately dependent on the mother for sustenance at a time when the mother is at her weakest and most vulnerable. It calls for selflessness, and my wife embodies it. She allows me to get rest at night whilst she gets up many times to feed Halisme. She does not complain when I head to the ground to play and is very pleasant about it, always supporting me. I am grateful. I am blessed to call her my wife. Family: My wife and I live with my family, and they help. My mother has 6 kids herself and is a source of wisdom that we can always turn to for help in all areas of life, parenting or otherwise. It also helps to know that someone under the roof has that kind of experience; she is my “get out of jail” card. I am a lawyer at my father’s law practice, Mahmood Gaznavi Chambers LLC, and he has been kind and understanding to allow me some time off to train and attend to my duties as a father while he shoulders the responsibilities at work. But work never stops for me and I do my best to ensure that work is not compromised, which is a key ethos of my father’s being. I have four other sisters - Farha, Zahra, Xaira, and Cazra – who are ever ready to lend a helping hand to assist us care for the baby, be it to attend to her when my wife and I sneak in time to eat or to look over Halisme when we find time to catch up on sleep. Coaches: Amjad and Rajesh empathized and have never once said no to accommodate my requests to train whenever I get the opportunity. They make time to suit my convenience. They sweat alongside me, and such experiences create bonds that are hard to replace. For Hillary Nicole Segura Castro 4. Congratulations on becoming a mother! As a new mother supporting a partner in high-performance sports, what has this journey been like for you, and what moments have stood out the most so far? Hillary: Becoming a mother is a transformative and challenging process for all women regardless of your husband’s job or position. That being said, I am aware that my husband is man who has big goals, dreams, and expectations. Reminding myself that I chose and continue to choose him for the entirety of who he is and therefore supporting him in all his dreams has been integral in allowing myself to be patient and understanding of his limited time. Even though he has limited time, I have him at my beck and call. My husband is an... --- - Published: 2025-12-09 - Modified: 2025-12-10 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/fostering-to-gatherness-at-millenia-walk-bringing-dreams-of-santa-paws-to-life-interview-with-roy-wang-founder-creative-director-at-factory/ - Categories: INTERVIEW - Tags: @milleniawalk, #DreamsofSantaPaws, #MWCreativeNeighbourhood, #TheSeasonAglow, Dreams of Santa Paws, FACTORY, Millenia Walk, Millenia Walk’s Festive Wonderland to Life, Roy Wang Millenia Walk has transformed into a vibrant, whimsical playground under its The Season Aglow celebrations, a joyful space designed to spark wonder and connection. At the heart of this year’s festivities is Dreams of Santa Paws, an imaginative installation created by Roy Wang, Founder & Creative Director at FACTORY, an award-winning multidisciplinary art and design studio with a presence in Singapore, Malaysia, and Shenzhen. Known for his playful yet emotionally grounded approach to design, Roy has built a distinctive visual language shaped by a lifetime of artistic curiosity, earning multiple accolades across branding, identity, and publication design. With Dreams of Santa Paws, he brings to Millenia Walk a world that is warm, magical, and rooted in everyday joy, a reflection of the mall’s commitment to supporting local talent and creating meaningful community spaces. Our team spoke with Roy Wang to learn about his inspirations, creative process, and the heart behind the delightful installation that now lights up Millenia Walk. Read on to find out more. Interview with Roy Wang, Founder & Creative Director at FACTORY 1) You’ve been immersed in fine art since the age of three. How has that early exposure shaped your unique visual language and approach to multidisciplinary design? Roy Wang: I grew up creating with no boundaries. My dad worked in the era of advertising when everything was created by hand, and creativity felt tactile, and I observed all of these as a child. Practising art was not about technique or mastery, it was simply my way of making sense of the world, and that sense of curiosity never left me. Today, whether I am designing a brand, a space, or an object, I approach each project with that same openness and play. To me, multidisciplinary work is really about finding joy in letting different mediums speak to one another in a cross contextualisation way, and allowing creativity to feel human. 2) What inspired the whimsical characters and neon-lit elements in the “Dreams of Santa Paws” Merry-Go-Round, and how do they reflect your artistic philosophy? Roy Wang: The installation draws from everyday happiness. A cat playing in oversized flowers. A goose dancing. A girl sipping bubble tea. These little moments are universal and simple yet they are what we often rush past. By illuminating them in neon light, which I feel has a powerful and unspoken attractiveness, I wanted to elevate the ordinary into something that feels magical. In my work, I always hope to create worlds that feel playful but meaningful. I believe art does not need to be intimidating. It can be warm, familiar, and still deeply moving. Dreams of Santa Paws is a good example of that philosophy in action. 3) How do you approach storytelling in interactive installations like this, where art, design, and audience experience intersect? Roy Wang: For me, storytelling does not begin with the artwork. It begins with the person experiencing it. I imagine how someone might walk into the space, what catches their eye first, and what might surprise them along the way. I think about how a moment of interaction can create a memory, and most importantly, make someone feel. 4) Millenia Walk emphasises bringing the local community together. How did you incorporate the theme of connection and joy into this installation? Roy Wang: Millenia Walk has a strong belief in the art of everyday living. It is a place built on human connection. I wanted the installation to embody that spirit by creating a space where people gather to experience joy together. The light installations I designed are meant to greet you back. They invite you to pause with the people you love. Families can sit together beneath the Meowly-Go-Round with its animated paw, friends can take photos, and even someone on their own can find a moment of peace sitting on the beanbag and soaking in the colours. The installation becomes a shared emotional space, not just something to look at. 5) What were the most exciting or challenging aspects of translating your creative vision into a large-scale, public-facing installation? Roy Wang: The most exciting part is seeing people interact with something that once existed only in my sketches. The challenge is that every design decision must consider safety, accessibility, and durability, without losing the heart of the piece. For this, I have to thank our wonderful build partners PICO, who really are the architects that helped realise my vision. Balancing imagination with practicality is a huge part of public art. But when the lights came on and I saw the first smiles from visitors, every challenge felt worthwhile. 6) How do you hope “Dreams of Santa Paws” impacts visitors, and what does this project mean for your journey as an emerging Singaporean artist and designer? Roy Wang: I hope visitors feel a moment of warmth. I hope they forget their hurry, even briefly, and simply enjoy being present. If someone looks up at the lights and smiles to themselves, that is the best outcome for me. As a Singaporean artist and designer, this project is meaningful because it shows that there is room here for creativity that is playful, emotional, and deeply human. I am grateful to Millenia Walk for believing in that vision and giving me this platform to create something that brings people together.

Among the standout innovators is Truly Nuts, the world’s leading Brazil nut producer now making waves in Singapore. Available at Lazada, Cold Storage and FairPrice Finest stores islandwide, Truly Nuts is more than just a premium snack, it is a mission-driven movement rooted in sustainability, social impact and bold innovation. Sourced directly from the Amazon rainforest, the brand has built a cutting-edge facility at the source to ensure every nut is fresh, fully traceable and ethically harvested. Working closely with more than 3,000 local families, Truly Nuts supports livelihoods, protects biodiversity and invests deeply in regional development. Offering indulgent Belgian chocolate-coated varieties and the world’s first savoury Brazil nut snacks, the brand brings a fresh twist to a nutrient-dense superfood. Packed with natural goodness, zero additives and plenty of crunch, these snacks are ideal for both adults and kids, a wholesome alternative families can truly feel good about. Beyond taste, Truly Nuts pledges 25% of profits to environmental and community-focused initiatives in the Amazon. As Singapore advances its Food Security 2030 mission, this purpose-forward brand embodies the future of responsible snacking and healthier choices for families today, and a healthier planet for generations tomorrow. As Truly Nuts continues expanding globally, its roots remain firmly planted in sustainability, innovation and community uplift. To dive deeper into this story, the journey behind the world’s first savoury Brazil nuts and the mission shaping the brand’s future, we speak with Gareth Lloyd, Co-Founder and CEO of Truly Nuts to share more insights on the brand’s innovation journey, sustainability initiatives, community impact, and plans for global expansion. Read on to find out more. Interview with Gareth Lloyd, Co Founder and CEO, Truly Nuts 1. What inspired the world’s first savoury Brazil nut snack, and what were some of the biggest challenges? Gareth Lloyd: When Greg and I began developing TRULY NUTS! , we realised Brazil nuts were one of the most underappreciated ingredients in the snacking world. They are nutrient dense, wild harvested from the Amazon and have incredible potential, yet most products on the market were either plain or covered in chocolate. We saw a real opportunity to innovate by introducing bold savoury flavours and showing people a more exciting and modern way to enjoy Brazil nuts. Creating the world’s first savoury Brazil nut snack, however, came with major challenges. Brazil nuts are large and naturally oily, which makes them very difficult to flavour. We spent a long time perfecting our process, using slow roasting, low temperature flavour infusion and a very precise coating method to ensure the flavours stayed on the nut without affecting texture or nutritional quality. We also made the choice to build our own processing facility in the Amazon. That was a huge commitment and brought many practical challenges, from limited infrastructure to complex supply chains and the realities of working in a remote rainforest. But doing it there was important to us. It gives us complete control over quality and traceability, and it allows us to operate in a way that genuinely supports the forest and the communities who rely on it. 2. How did your DJ/creative background influence innovation at TRULY NUTS! ? Gareth Lloyd: My time spinning decks in Manchester shaped the way I think about creativity. It taught us to experiment freely, to take risks and to look for ideas in unexpected places. That same mindset guides how we innovate at TRULY NUTS! When we first started exploring the idea of flavouring Brazil nuts, plenty of people told us it was not possible. But it felt just like putting together a set. You play with new combinations, fine tune the details and keep going until everything feels right. That creative energy and the drive to push past what others think is possible, really helped us build a completely new approach to flavouring and bring our range of distinct varieties to life. 3. What was the vision behind building a processing facility in the Amazon, and how has that shaped product quality and sustainability? Gareth Lloyd: For me, it was essential that we did not just source nuts from the Amazon. We built our entire processing operation there. By doing this, we keep more value in the region, reduce transport emissions and ensure full traceability from forest to shelf. Operating at the source also gives us tighter control over quality. We can monitor harvesting, drying, roasting and flavouring all in a single connected process. Being on site also strengthens our commitment to sustainability. For example, we use the fallen shells from Brazil nut harvesting to power our facility, which reduces waste and provides a renewable source of energy 4. How is your commitment to donating 25% of profits making an impact in the Amazon region? Gareth Lloyd Our Go Wild for Good pledge is far more than a message on a pack. We commit 25 percent of TRULY NUTS! profits directly to conservation and community projects across the Amazon. These contributions support reforestation work such as tree planting, training for forest rangers and long-term partnerships with local organisations. A major part of this mission is our work with indigenous associations to strengthen sustainable harvesting practices. This protects the rainforest while creating steady and fair income for the families who rely on it. By 2026, we aim to support sixteen thousand families in the Amazon. We provide them not only with a meaningful source of income but also a global platform to sell their raw Brazil nut products. In short, the pledge allows us to give back to the forest and the people who make everything we do possible. 5. How do your values around fair wages, women’s empowerment, and community development play out daily? Gareth Lloyd: From the very beginning, Greg and I believed that our work in the Amazon had to go far beyond sourcing nuts.

It is precisely in that space, the quiet, often overlooked pauses that ANOTHER LAND finds its purpose. The wellness lifestyle brand, born out of a desire to make self-care both accessible and deeply meaningful, has now officially expanded to Singapore, offering a curated range of sustainable face, body, and home essentials designed to slow things down and help us feel more grounded. A New Arrival in Singapore’s Wellness Scene ANOTHER LAND conceived in Singapore and developed in collaboration with scientists and researchers at JoLab in Taiwan has quietly been making waves. Although the brand first opened in Taipei, its arrival in Singapore is already drawing attention: its products are now available online to Singaporean customers, and the brand even made a splash with a pop-up at the recently concluded The Gifting Edition 2025 by Boutiques Singapore from 21–23 November 2025. This debut marks not only ANOTHER LAND’s entrance into a new market, but also a deeper commitment to bringing sustainable, scientifically formulated self-care rituals into everyday life. Through this launch, ANOTHER LAND invites busy individuals caught up in careers, family, deadlines, and expectations to reclaim their time, reset, and reconnect with themselves. In the haze of daily demands, the brand positions its products as gentle, sensorial anchors that turn routine moments into opportunities for calm and care. Interview with Jackson Tan, Co-Founder of ANOTHER LAND To understand the philosophy driving ANOTHER LAND and the intentions behind its expansion to Singapore, our team spoke to the brand’s co-founder, Jackson Tan, who shared thoughtful insights on self-care, sustainability, and the sensory experiences the brand hopes to create. Read on to find out more. 1. Self-care can mean so many different things to different people. How do you personally define it, and what role do you hope ANOTHER LAND’s products play in helping people carve out meaningful “me time”? Jackson Tan: To me, self-care is the simple act of returning to yourself. It doesn’t have to be elaborate or time-consuming—it’s the quiet pause between responsibilities where you check in with your mind, your skin, and your breath. We hope to help people like us—the co-founders. Busy. Stretched. Caring for careers, families, businesses, and communities. Managing deadlines and expectations. And somewhere in the blur, we forget to care for the most important person: ourselves. We believe time is the greatest luxury. And today, it’s one most of us can’t afford. That’s why ANOTHER LAND was created—to make meaningful, effective self-care products that are safe, sensorial, and intentional. They can quickly transform the “Oh nos” into “Oh yes” moments. We hope our products become gentle invitations for people to create these pauses. By transforming everyday routines into sensory rituals, we want “me time” to feel less like a luxury you have to schedule and more like a moment you naturally look forward to. 2. Beyond the science, how do you hope customers actually feel the difference that ZeroDilute™ and DermaFortify™ bring to their daily self-care rituals? Jackson Tan: Research and innovation are the backbone of our formulas, but the feeling is what truly stays with you. With ZeroDilute™, our customers experience textures that feel rich and purposeful—every drop is active, nothing is filler. And with DermaFortify™, there’s an immediate comfort on the skin: a sense of calm, resilience, and nourishment. Our hope is that people don’t just see results—they feel cared for, grounded, and restored every time they use our products. 3. Many people struggle to make self-care a habit. From your perspective, what small practices or rituals do you hope ANOTHER LAND inspires in customers’ daily lives? Jackson Tan: We believe consistency grows out of small, pleasurable moments. Even something as simple as taking three deep breaths while applying your serum, or enjoying the scent and texture of a mask without rushing through it, can shift the tone of your day. We hope ANOTHER LAND inspires rituals that are easy to integrate—tiny anchors of calm that remind people to slow down, reset, and reconnect with themselves. 4. Sustainability is increasingly important to consumers. How does ANOTHER LAND ensure its products are both effective and eco-conscious while maintaining its luxury wellness standards? Jackson Tan: For us, sustainability and luxury are not opposing values—they strengthen one another. We take a “less but better” approach: highly concentrated formulas that reduce waste, responsibly sourced botanicals, and packaging that’s minimal yet premium. Every decision—from our supply chain to our lab testing—is guided by the belief that caring for yourself should never come at the expense of the planet. Luxury is not about excess; it’s about integrity and intention. Our lab has also recently been certified B Corp, meeting high standards for social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. 5. Looking back at your pop-up at The Gifting Edition by Boutiques Singapore, what were the key elements of the experience, and how did they help connect visitors with the brand’s approach to intentional self-care? Jackson Tan: Visitors experienced an immersive space that felt like a breath of fresh air—calm, sensory, and thoughtfully paced. We designed the experience to slow people down, creating opportunities for meaningful conversations with the co-founders and our team, who were present to engage with them. There were touchpoints that encouraged exploration, textures to feel, scents to inhale, and moments of guided stillness. Our aim for shoppers to understand our products not just through information, but through stories, senses, and atmosphere. When we created our products, we believed deeply that the best gift you can give — to yourself or to a loved one — is the gift of self-care. That’s why we also featured our gift sets, which were thoughtfully designed to help you Live Well, Sleep Well, and Travel Well. Every detail of the booth reflected our philosophy that intentional self-care begins with creating space to simply be present. 6.

Evoking the elegance of early 20th-century summer mansions once favoured by Thailand’s aristocracy, the resort’s distinctive Victorian gingerbread architecture and sweeping beachfront setting create an immediate sense of timeless charm. With just 23 generously sized, sea-facing rooms, suites, and villas, Devasom Hua Hin offers an intimate and immersive escape, one that begins the moment guests arrive and are enveloped in its serene ambience and warm, personalised hospitality. A Warm Welcome and Personalised Hospitality Arrival at Devasom Hua Hin is a serene affair. From the moment we stepped through the elegant lobby, the staff greeted us with genuine warmth and attentiveness, ensuring every need was anticipated. Our accommodation, a beautifully appointed sea-facing room, combined understated luxury with thoughtful touches inspired by Thai culture. Plush bedding, a fully stocked mini bar, high-speed Wi-Fi, and floor-to-ceiling windows framing the sparkling Gulf waters created the perfect sanctuary in which to unwind after travelling. The resort’s Victorian gingerbread architecture, inspired by early 20th-century summer mansions, together with just 23 large, sea-facing rooms, suites, and villas, ensures an intimate and private atmosphere. Complimentary shuttle service to Hua Hin town makes exploring cultural attractions, shopping, dining, and golf effortless, whilst still retaining a sense of peaceful seclusion. Immerse in Wellness: Himalayan Healing Sound Bath Among the standout experiences at Devasom Hua Hin is the Himalayan Healing Sound Bath. Guests lie on comfortable mats whilst a skilled practitioner plays authentic Himalayan singing bowls. The harmonic vibrations calm the nervous system, reduce stress, and encourage mindfulness. Experiencing the sound bath on the beachfront, with the gentle lapping of waves and soft sea breeze, was profoundly restorative. Scientific studies confirm that sound therapy using Himalayan singing bowls can improve sleep quality, reduce anxiety, enhance mental clarity, and promote deep relaxation and benefits we experienced first-hand. This wellness offering elevates the resort beyond traditional luxury, allowing guests to reconnect with themselves and embrace true stillness. Culinary Journeys at Devasom Hua Hin Resort We enjoyed a thoroughly memorable dining experience throughout our stay, from leisurely, sumptuous breakfasts to flavoursome lunches and beautifully prepared dinners. Each meal became a pleasurable moment to look forward to, setting a delightful rhythm to our days at the resort. Every dish was thoughtfully crafted and presented with a refined touch, seamlessly blending Thai heritage with contemporary elegance. Fresh, local ingredients, well-balanced flavours, and careful attention to detail were evident throughout, creating dining experiences that were both comforting and sophisticated. Overall, the culinary experience at Devasom Hua Hin impressed us, not just for the delicious food, but for the warm service, inviting atmosphere, and the sense of occasion that accompanied every meal. Horse Riding Along the Beach: A Magical Experience One of the most memorable experiences during our stay was horse riding along Hua Hin Beach. Devasom partners with trusted local stables to offer guided rides suitable for both beginners and experienced riders. Riding along the quiet sands at sunrise or sunset, accompanied by the rhythmic sound of waves and a gentle sea breeze, felt truly magical. Shorter pony rides for children or private rides tailored to personal preferences are also available, making this a versatile and unforgettable activity for all guests. Exploring Hua Hin with Ease Whilst the resort offers a tranquil, secluded setting, it remains conveniently connected to Hua Hin town. Complimentary shuttles allow guests to explore cultural landmarks, golf courses, markets, boutique shops, and dining venues. Each excursion into town feels like a brief adventure, while returning to the peaceful sanctuary of Devasom Hua Hin brings a comforting sense of calm and privacy. Thoughtful Details and Curated Experiences The resort’s attention to detail is evident in every aspect of the stay. From sunrise beach strolls to curated wellness activities and refined dining experiences, every element reflects care and dedication. Personalised service ensures that each request is met with warmth and professionalism. The ambience encourages guests to slow their pace, enjoy each moment, and fully immerse themselves in the serene surroundings. Why Devasom Hua Hin Stands Out Devasom Hua Hin is more than a resort, it is a holistic retreat for the mind, body, and soul. Its combination of luxury accommodation, beachfront serenity, wellness offerings, culinary artistry, and unique activities such as beach horse riding creates a truly distinctive experience. Recognised consistently with awards and accolades, the resort remains a favourite among discerning travellers seeking boutique luxury, wellness, and meaningful travel experiences. For those seeking a sanctuary that blends heritage, culture, and well-being, Devasom Hua Hin Resort offers an immersive and rejuvenating escape. From the soothing Himalayan Sound Bath to the artistry of Thai cuisine, from horseback rides along the shore to the gentle rhythm of the waves at dusk, every moment encourages presence, serenity, and discovery. A stay here leaves guests refreshed, inspired, and longing to return.

With 56 years of heritage, a footprint across 52 countries, a portfolio of 220 products, and three generations of Italian dermocosmetic mastery, World of Beauty now expands its focus to Southeast Asia, choosing Singapore as the strategic gateway for its next chapter of growth. Founded in 1969 by Florence Guardigli in the serene hills of Castrocaro Terme, Italy, the brand was built on the principle that science, nature, and skincare should work together. From the outset, Guardigli worked with pharmacists and doctors to craft high-performance formulations using natural active ingredients, a forward-thinking approach long before “clean beauty” became a global trend. Today, under the leadership of her granddaughter Joyce Tirindelli, World of Beauty continues its legacy, now expanding its presence in Southeast Asia with Singapore as its regional hub. Singapore’s cosmopolitan landscape, emphasis on quality, and focus on innovation make it a natural choice for introducing this heritage brand to the region. Dermocosmetic Innovation: Where Nature Meets Science World of Beauty emphasizes science-backed skincare that respects and enhances the skin’s natural balance. Its formulations combine botanical actives with modern dermocosmetic technology. Clean, ethical formulations – The brand states that its products are vegan, organic, Halal-certified, cruelty-free, and free from parabens, paraffin/petrolatum, and SLES. Cold-pressed botanical actives – World of Beauty uses cold-extraction methods to preserve the full potency of natural ingredients. Professional-grade skincare – Designed for salons, spas, and home use, its products aim to bridge in-spa treatments with at-home care. Hair and scalp care – The JSKIN line supports scalp health and hair vitality, extending the brand’s dermocosmetic expertise beyond facial and body care. Supporting the Skin Microbiome The brand’s modern philosophy also considers the skin microbiome, the community of microorganisms naturally residing on our skin. Maintaining a balanced microbiome supports the skin’s barrier, hydration, and defense against environmental stressors. World of Beauty incorporates prebiotic, postbiotic, and fermented extracts to help nurture skin health and resilience, reflecting a long-term, science-informed approach to skincare. Review: Three Signature Treatments That Transformed Our Skin Testing a capsule selection of their more luxurious treatments gave us a vivid sense of what World of Beauty stands for: sensorial indulgence, and visible, substantive results. Here are three treatments that left a strong impression: I Polynesia Absolute Beauty Elixir Magnilift Wrinkle Corrector The elixir felt deeply nourishing from the first application, its rich, velvety texture absorbed effortlessly, leaving skin feeling smooth, supple, and noticeably firmer. Over several days, we experienced improved elasticity and a subtle contour‑lifting effect. The infusion of natural plant extracts (Rosa Canina, Mauritia Flexuosa) and nourishing butters resulted in a plumped, luminous finish akin to a “natural facelift in a bottle. ” Our skin also felt more hydrated and maintained a fresh glow throughout the day. Akoia Gold Anti Age Global Exfoliator Gommage Esfoliante Gold Ageless Skin This gold-infused exfoliator felt like a spa-level treat at home. Instead of harsh physical scrubbing, its gentle enzymatic, creamy texture lifted away impurities and dead skin without disturbing the skin’s balance. Right after use, our complexion felt refined, clarified, and radiant never dry or tight. With consistent use, we noticed more even tone, smoother texture, and makeup glided on effortlessly. It felt like a gentle yet effective reset for dull or stressed skin. Carboxy Lift Home Ritualtion 3 Perhaps the most unique experience: with the brand’s vegetable‑based CO₂ technology (non‑invasive and needle‑free), this home ritual delivered an oxygenating and revitalizing facial experience. Minutes after application our skin appeared brighter, more energized and firmer as though we had just stepped out of a facial spa. It’s an ideal pick-me-up for fatigued or dull skin especially before a special occasion or after a long, stressful day. The “post‑facial glow” was noticeable almost immediately, with no downtime at all. Together, these treatments reflect the brand’s philosophy: skincare that supports healthy, well-balanced skin while offering refined textures and a pleasant sensorial experience. Heritage, Sustainability, and Modern Relevance From its founding laboratory in Italy to today’s international presence, World of Beauty has remained committed to: Sustainability – Eco-friendly and recyclable packaging, ethical sourcing, and environmentally conscious production. Clean beauty – Formulations that respect the skin and avoid harsh chemicals. Professional expertise – Products developed for both salon professionals and home users, bridging clinical and personal care. With its arrival in Singapore and Southeast Asia, beauty enthusiasts and professionals can now access spa-grade, ethically produced, science-driven dermocosmetics that embody the Italian legacy of natural luxury skincare. World of Beauty’s arrival in Singapore marks an exciting new chapter for dermocosmetic innovation in the region. With its heritage rooted in Italian craftsmanship and its philosophy grounded in clean, science-backed formulations, the brand stands as a testament to how tradition and modernity can harmoniously coexist. Its commitment to ethical practices, sensorial luxury, and long-term skin wellness positions it as a distinctive choice for those seeking results-driven skincare that also respects the skin’s natural balance. As World of Beauty continues to expand its presence in Southeast Asia, it brings with it a timeless vision of beauty one that values purity, efficacy, and sustainability in every step of the skincare journey. World of Beauty offers free personal skin consultations for every skin type, providing customised, effective, and optimised skincare routines tailored to each individual, designed to deliver visible results quickly and safely. In Singapore, World of Beauty products are available at 40 salons islandwide as well as online.

Owned by Mandai Wildlife Group, the resort marks Banyan Group’s debut in Singapore and is a key addition to the Mandai Wildlife Reserve, the city-state’s wildlife and nature destination. “As we mark our 100th hotel with our first in Singapore, Mandai Rainforest Resort by Banyan Tree represents a deeply meaningful homecoming. It brings together our legacy of design-led hospitality with our commitment to stewardship and shared impact,” said Eddy See, President and CEO, Banyan Group. “Here, guests are invited to slow down, reconnect with nature, and experience travel as a force that uplifts people, places, and communities. As the first resort within a world-leading wildlife and nature destination in a capital city, it offers an unparalleled opportunity to connect with nature and enjoy meaningful wildlife experiences right at their doorstep, a powerful expression of Singapore’s City in Nature vision. ” “For over a decade, we have been transforming the Mandai Wildlife Reserve into a world-leading wildlife and nature destination, where our parks offer windows into the wild and public spaces create new ways to enjoy the outdoors. With extensive experiences beyond immersive wildlife encounters across our 126-hectare precinct, accommodation is a key part of the journey,” said Bennett Neo, Group CEO, Mandai Wildlife Group. “Mandai Rainforest Resort by Banyan Tree is an important addition that allows guests to stay longer, explore at their own pace, and fully enjoy everything that the precinct has to offer. More than a place to stay, it is an immersion in nature and a rare opportunity to connect with it in a city-state. ” A Resort Immersed in the Rainforest Set within 4. 6 hectares of lush greenery, Mandai Rainforest Resort by Banyan Tree brings biophilic design to the heart of Singapore. Elevated architecture preserves the site’s natural terrain, while mature trees have been carefully retained, including a 12-meter Rain Tree (Samanea saman) and an Indian Beech tree (Millettia pinnata) that frame the arrival experience. Rising through the layers of the forest, the resort features elevated treehouses designed to resemble the seed pods of the Purple Millettia (Adinobotrys atropurpureus). Suspended among the canopy, they allow vegetation to thrive naturally beneath and offer views across the Upper Seletar Reservoir, inviting guests to embrace nature at every moment. The adjacent five storey resort building, including its rooftop spaces, houses guestrooms and suites that rise vertically through the forest scape with views of the rainforest, gardens, and reservoir. Inside the rooms, the design celebrates the forest’s complexity through artwork by Singaporean artist Donna Ong, depicting the forest floor, understorey, canopy, and emergent layers. Antique lithographs of native wildlife, such as the lesser mousedeer, white collared kingfisher, Sumatran flying dragon, and grey headed fish eagle, further highlight the biodiversity of Singapore. Rooms are designed with sustainability in mind, featuring full length windows that open for natural ventilation and ambient temperatures calibrated to mirror the cool atmosphere of tropical rainforests. Each room includes an interactive display that monitors power usage and provides gentle reminders when consumption increases. Rainwater is harvested and repurposed for flushing in every room. These thoughtful details support the resort’s achievement as Singapore’s first Green Mark Platinum Super Low Energy (SLE) certified resort. Dining, Wellbeing and Celebrations in Nature Forage, the resort’s signature restaurant, offers spectacular views of the Upper Seletar Reservoir featuring nature-inspired dining with a Harvest to Table concept featuring ingredients sourced from the rooftop edible garden and local sustainable producers. Guests may explore the garden and discover the native herbs and plants showcased in their dishes. The restaurant also offers some of the best sunset views in the precinct, along with easy access to the observation deck – also a birdwatching spot with more than 30 species recorded, including white throated kingfishers, sunbirds, and bulbuls. The restaurant’s palette is inspired by the rainforest and enriched with natural textures. As the first restaurant set within a rainforest in Singapore, Forage deepens diners’ connection to their surroundings, from the chefs’ use of locally foraged ingredients to preparation techniques rooted in the rhythms of the rainforest. Sustainability remains central, with a commitment to minimal environmental impact. On the rooftop, guests can enjoy the pool’s unobstructed views over Upper Seletar Reservoir. The Discovery Forest transforms built space into living green, with saplings that reflect the natural forest types once common in this region. The Edible Garden grows more than 15 native herbs, including Butterfly Pea, Torch Ginger, Roselle, Pandan, Lemongrass, and Asam Gelugor. The Meranti Ballroom, inspired by the mythology of the forest floor, offers an ideal venue for celebrations, conferences, and private events. Its centrepiece resembles the rare Bridal Veil Stinkhorn mushroom, known for its delicate hexagonal veil, sparking conversations about fungi, flora, and folklore. The Bridal Room, located adjacent to the ballroom, provides seamless access and privacy for wedding parties. Banyan Tree Spa offers an intimate sanctuary with pavilions and suites integrated into the surrounding greenery. Three iconic treatment pods draw inspiration from the scales of the native Sunda pangolin, symbolising protection and tranquillity. Guests unwind in a serene environment while expert therapists deliver rejuvenating treatments rooted in traditional Asian techniques.

Set within its flagship boutique at Takashimaya Shopping Centre, the space is an urban haven where fashion, flavour, and experience converge. With Christmas around the corner, bask in the joy and revelry of the season with PAZZION Café’s upcoming festive menu, titled Merry Sips & Sweets, proudly created in collaboration with beloved household beverage brand, Yakult. Available from 1 November until 31 December, the menu celebrates the warmth and charm of the merry season. It showcases a curated lineup of indulgent creations inspired by the holiday cheer - think three limited-edition drinks crafted with signature Yakult flavours that we know and love. HIGHLIGHTS ON THE MERRY SIPS & SWEETS MENU L-R: Merry Yakult Strawberry Matcha, Frosted Yakult Green Grape, Ruby Grapefruit Yakult Sparkler This festive season, PAZZION Café and Yakult have pulled out all the stops to curate a decadent beverage selection that wonderfully encapsulates the twinkle and magic of the season in every glass. Meet the Merry Yakult Strawberry Matcha ($8. 50), a playful two-toned drink layered with a strawberry fruit mix and mango bergamot tea; its rich, vibrant flavours are further accented with notes of Yakult, matcha, and lemon juice. It is then adorned with colourful gummy bears, perfectly capturing the whimsy of childhood Christmases. The Frosted Yakult Green Grape ($8. 50) is a sparkling creation that embodies the crisp, joyful energy of the year-end festivities. It is made with a refreshing blend of mashed green grapes, white grape syrup, Yakult, and cranberry juice, then mixed with a hint of soda for a gentle fizz. Topping it all off is a garnish of fresh grapes, mint leaves, and icing powder - a visual delight for the eyes. Last but not least, the Ruby Grapefruit Yakult Sparkler ($8. 50) astounds with its rose-pink hues of red grapefruit purée, pomegranate syrup, and Yakult - a harmonious pairing of sweet and tart. It is then decorated with a fresh slice of grapefruit, adding a touch of citrusy hues. Refreshing and oh-so-gorgeous, it is equal parts pretty as it is delicious. A SEASONAL SAVOURY COMFORT The Festive Tom Yam Seafood Risotto is the sole savoury dish on the Christmas menu, crafted by the chefs from PAZZION Café. Beyond the festive dishes created in tandem with Yakult, PAZZION Café further ups the ante with a hearty, savoury dish on the menu: Festive Tom Yam Seafood Risotto ($24). Comforting and tangy, the fragrant Tom Yam tomato base is complemented by edamame, prawns, and scallops for a delightful mix of flavours and textures, finished with chilli heat for a punch of festive spice. SIGNATURE FLAVOURS, CLASSIC STAPLES While the jolly season is best celebrated with new and exciting creations, it is also about enjoying familiar, timeless flavours. There is no better way to do so than with PAZZION Café’s array of crowd-favourite dishes, also available for order alongside the Merry Sips & Sweets menu. L-R: Cold Truffle Pasta, Braised Beef Cheeks, The Fab Burger A perennial-favourite item is the Cold Truffle Pasta ($24), a show-stopping delight brimming with aromatic truffle notes. It is truly a sight to behold - nori flakes, crunchy ebiko bits, and pan-seared scallops - cooked to golden-brown perfection - nestled atop a springy bed of angel hair pasta. Relish the Braised Beef Cheeks ($30) with its tender, oh-so-juicy slab of slow-cooked beef cheek that melts in your mouth at first bite. Resting on a creamy mound of mashed potatoes, the savoury dish is generously drizzled with velvety gravy for a burst of umami. Those who adore big, bold flavours will be enticed by The Fab Burger ($24), a much-loved staple at PAZZION Café. It comprises all the core elements that we love in a well-crafted burger: a chunky Angus beef patty, streaky bacon, caramelised onions, cheese, jalapenos, avocado bits, and more - all of which are sandwiched between fluffy-soft sesame buns. Served with a side of fries or salad. Chocolate Granola French Toast with Berries To end your meal on a sweet note, savour the Chocolate Granola French Toast with Berries ($22). Think mixed berries, fresh figs, decadent chocolate, and crunchy granola, paired with a silky kaya spread for an irresistible local twist. Finished with a scoop of sea salt caramel ice cream on the side, this dessert perfectly captures the indulgent joy of the season. PAZZION Café is located at Takashimaya Shopping Centre, 391 Orchard Road, #B1-39/40, Singapore 238872, and opens from Sunday - Thursday (9:30am to 9:30pm) and Friday - Saturday (9:30am to 10pm).

Inspired by stars as symbols of guidance, love, and hope, “Star Light, Star Bright” encourages Singaporeans to reflect on the strength of family connections, even in challenging circumstances. At the heart of the campaign are heartfelt artworks co-created by incarcerated mothers and their children, each capturing personal stories of love, reconciliation, and resilience. Guided by the campaign manifesto, these mothers expressed their journeys through art, producing distinctive pieces that symbolise enduring bonds and renewal. Roving Art Gallery and Community Engagement For the first time, Geneco is bringing these artworks into the public sphere through a roving art gallery that tours Singapore from 1 to 21 December 2025, stopping at Hillion Mall, Paya Lebar Quarter (PLQ) Plaza, and 270 Orchard Road. Each artwork is accompanied by personal stories from the mothers, offering visitors insight into the emotional journeys behind the paintings. Visitors can adopt the artworks, with proceeds supporting rehabilitation and reintegration programmes for inmates, ex-offenders, and their families. Beyond the gallery, the campaign features limited-edition festive cookies and greeting cards, crafted and designed in collaboration with the Yellow Ribbon Bakery, showcasing the creativity of inmate-bakers. Additionally, families of incarcerated parents and caregivers are invited to a stargazing session and Omni-Theatre experience in partnership with Science Centre Singapore, creating meaningful moments of reflection, connection, and joy. From 1 November to 31 December 2025, the public can also vote for their favourite artworks on the campaign microsite. Every vote contributes to Geneco’s S$10,000 donation to the Yellow Ribbon Fund, supporting rehabilitation and reintegration programmes, while promoting awareness of second chances and community support. Interview with Alex Chan, Head of Brand, Communications & Marketing at Geneco To gain deeper insight into the vision behind “Star Light, Star Bright,” we spoke with Alex Chan, Head of Brand, Communications & Marketing at Geneco, who shared the inspiration, objectives, and significance of the campaign. 1. “Star Light, Star Bright” features artworks co-created by incarcerated mothers and their children. Can you share what the campaign aims to communicate through these stories of resilience and family bonds? Alex Chan: Star Light, Star Bright is a reflection of Geneco’s purpose to #PowerTheChange and a reminder that every action is a spark of hope that can illuminate new beginnings. By working with incarcerated mothers and their children to co-create these artworks, we wanted to spotlight the gift of second chances, hope and families , and the significance for them to rebuild their relationships. Each piece carries heartfelt stories on what family truly means to them, we hope to inspire the public to come together to support the reintegration of incarcerated inmates, not just with society, but their loved ones as well. 2. The campaign includes Geneco’s first-ever roving art gallery touring multiple locations. How do you hope this physical presence in the community will engage the public and raise awareness about second chances? Alex Chan: The roving art gallery brings Star Light, Star Bright to life by taking these stories of love and perseverance into the heart of the community. By showcasing the beautiful co-created artworks in accessible public spaces, such as Hillion Mall, Paya Lebar Quarter, and Orchard Road, we hope to encourage people to pause, reflect, and connect with the emotions behind each piece. Each artwork is accompanied by the mothers’ personal stories, offering the public a deeper understanding of the strength it takes to heal, reconcile, and hope again. This physical presence creates a space for empathy and invites Singaporeans to see how their support can make a real difference in helping others rebuild their lives. 3. Geneco is partnering with Yellow Ribbon Project, The Salvation Army Children & Youth Group – Kids In Play, Science Centre Singapore, and Families for Life. How did these collaborations help bring the campaign’s message of hope and family support to life? Alex Chan: Working with like-minded partners such as Yellow Ribbon Project, The Salvation Army, Science Centre Singapore, and Families for Life allowed Star Light, Star Bright to grow beyond what we could do alone and become a movement of shared compassion. Each partner brings unique strengths that help amplify the campaign's key message, sharing the same belief in hope, family support, and second chances. Yellow Ribbon Project and The Salvation Army, Children & Youth Group – Kids In Play support the rehabilitation and well-being of inmates and their families, while Science Centre Singapore and Families for Life create opportunities for bonding and reflection through educational and community-focused experiences. Together, as like-minded partners, we were able to create a movement of such scale to reach more families, tell their stories more meaningfully, and inspire the public to be part of a more inclusive and supportive community. 4. As part of the campaign, the public can vote for artworks, and Geneco will donate S$10,000 to the Yellow Ribbon Fund. How do initiatives like this strengthen the broader ecosystem of rehabilitation and reintegration for inmates and their families? Alex Chan: Initiatives like the public voting and donation component of Star Light, Star Bright allow the community to actively support the families of inmates in their journey to reintegrate. Every vote becomes a pledge of encouragement to incarcerated mothers and their families, sending a powerful message that society cares and is supporting them in their journey. Furthermore, the initiative also feature painting from other incarcerated inmates that are up for adoption, starting from less than a hundred dollars only. The funds raised will go toward rehabilitation and reintegration programmes that help rebuild confidence, strengthen family relationships, and support transitions back into the community.

Taking up a two-month residency from 12 November 2025 to 6 January 2026, Shane brings a taste of the rustic outdoors to the heart of the bustling city, complete with hearthside-inspired treats, woodland warmth, and his artisanal banana loaves from Taiyo Bread Shop, the home-based bakery that he founded in February 2025. Side Hustler-Turned Baker Friends and familiar faces, including Li Nanxing and Constance Song, came together in support of Taiyo Camp Club by Taiyo. For Shane, what started as a passion project in June 2024, i. e. baking banana bread in the comfort of his one-bedroom condominium, gradually evolved into a successful home-based business. It all started simply enough. During breaks between acting projects, and with a few too many ripe bananas lying around, Shane began experimenting with banana bread out of sheer curiosity. He shared his bakes on Instagram, not thinking much of it until his friends and fans began asking how they could get their hands on a loaf. Shane immediately noticed a demand for his banana loaves, and it was all the push and confidence that Shane needed to start his own home-based bakery. For six months, he devoted himself to refining his recipe, learning techniques from YouTube tutorials, and baking batch after batch to get everything just right. In February 2025, Taiyo Bread Shop was born. “Taiyo translates to 'sun' in Japanese,” explains Shane. “It was what gave me the inspiration for Taiyo Bread Shop. Just like the sun, it’s my dream to spread happiness through my handmade bakes. Seeing my customers enjoy my banana loaves gives me utmost satisfaction and joy, and it motivates me to constantly innovate and deliver tastier creations. ” A one-man show, Shane takes pride in handcrafting his artisanal banana loaves from scratch, meticulously whipping up every batch and batter by hand. He serves a streamlined menu of only three flavours: Going Bananas, Nutty Nana, and Chocoloco, and they often sell out within a few hours of release – thanks to their delicate crumb, moist body, and aromatic banana notes. *Taiyo Bread Shop is currently not taking in any orders; the banana loaves will be available for purchase at Taiyo Camp Club by Taiyo during its residency at Chef X. “Fuel-Good” Campfire-Inspired Treats With Taiyo Camp Club by Taiyo’s two-month stint at Chef X, Shane hopes to serve his signature banana bakes to a wider community, albeit with a unique camping-themed concept. Inspired by the simple pleasures of sharing food and conversation with loved ones around the campfire, he recreates an urban campsite in Clarke Quay Central, bringing to life the charm of the natural outdoors. L-R: Going Bananas, Chocoloco, Nutty Nana Fans of Taiyo Bread Shop can gather round and savour its signature collection of bakes: Going Bananas ($30 per loaf, $4 per slice), a classic flavour brimming with gentle banana hues, Nutty Nana ($33 per loaf, $4. 50 per slice) with crunchy walnuts embedded within its soft, cake-like body, and Chocoloco ($33 per loaf, $4. 50 per slice) peppered with dark chocolate chips. Sweet-toothed diners can also look forward to savouring a delectable range of Chef X-exclusive bakes, including a Kohaku Foccacia ($4) made with fragrant burnt butter and cinnamon, an oh-so-luscious Belgium Chocolate Cake ($6), and a classic Carrot Cake ($6). There’s even a toothsome pecan pie – an upcoming bake created specially for Christmas – that’s made to be the perfect festive treat. Shane will be whipping up new sweet and savoury bakes every now and then, so be sure to stay tuned to Taiyo Camp Club by Taiyo’s menu! L-R: Midnight Ramyeon, Little Dimples, Golden Drumlets On the savoury end, the menu features comforting campfire-inspired bites such as the Midnight Ramyeon ($8. 50) with juicy popcorn chicken atop kimchi ramyeon noodles, Little Dimples ($8 for 8 pieces) boasting boiled dumplings drizzled with a vinegar-and-chilli sauce, and the Golden Drumlets ($10 for 8 pieces) seasoned with a secret spice blend. A Community of Good Taste and Good Deeds In the spirit of community and doing good together, Taiyo Camp Club by Taiyo is partnering with a line-up of small businesses and charities to create a meaningful impact. Among them is Care Corner Singapore, a non-profit organisation providing vital social and healthcare services. Part of the proceeds from Taiyo Camp Club by Taiyo’s residency at Chef X will go towards supporting its initiatives. The collaboration also extends to coffee brand De’Longhi, where coffee aficionados can savour its indulgent brews, and local herbal tea wellness brand Ele Tea, which is offering TCM-inspired teas that nourish the body and mind.

Yet in many countries, children face barriers that prevent them from enjoying these benefits. Recognizing this, ANESSA – Asia’s No. 1 suncare brand introduced the ANESSA Sunshine Project, a global initiative that explores these everyday challenges to outdoor play and provides practical, locally relevant solutions to promote children’s holistic well-being while safely harnessing the power of the sun. Across Southeast Asia - particularly in Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand - children’s opportunities for outdoor play are often shaped by lifestyle and environmental factors. Academic commitments, limited access to safe outdoor spaces, and extreme heat can keep children indoors, while low awareness of UV risks can create another barrier to enjoying the sun safely. Country-specific factors further shape children’s outdoor experiences: in the Philippines, screen time and concerns about heat can affect activity; in Thailand, awareness of the sun’s benefits remains limited; in Malaysia, academics often take precedence over play; and in Singapore, beyond similar academic commitments, some parents also express concern over excessive sun exposure. The JFA | ANESSA Kids Event - held at Jurong East Stadium - was designed by ANESSA together with Japan Football Association (JFA), and the Football Association of Singapore (FAS) and combined hands-on football drills led by JFA trained coaches with interactive lessons on sun safety. At the heart of this year’s program is the ANESSA Sunshine Lab - a classroom turned inside out, where sunshine becomes the teacher. Recognizing Singaporean children’s natural eagerness to learn, the Sunshine Lab was designed to engage them through structured, interactive lessons that combine education with play. By channeling their natural curiosity, children discovered the importance of UV awareness, while enjoying healthy outdoor play – making sun-smart habits fun, familiar and easy to adopt. Hassan Sunny showing the kids foot drills at the ANESSA Sunshine Project in Singapore A standout moment of the day was the special appearance of Hassan Sunny, who captivated participants and inspired them with his personal journey both on and off the field. “Playing outdoors as a child taught me discipline, confidence, and resilience,” Sunny shared. “Initiatives like the ANESSA Sunshine Project are invaluable for giving children the opportunity to grow through sports and outdoor play. I hope to see this program expand regionally, so more kids can enjoy the benefits of active, outdoor living. ” Singapore has consistently been one of ANESSA’s top-performing markets in Southeast Asia, supported by strong year-on-year growth and rising demand for high-performance suncare. The ANESSA Sunshine Project in Singapore is designed to inspire children to embrace healthy, sun-smart outdoor living, highlighting the significance of education and awareness around UV protection in nurturing children’s holistic well-being. “Singapore is central to our ambition for Asia Pacific,” Nicolas Baudonnet, Chief Marketing & Business Development Officer, Cosmetic & Fragrance noted. “It provides an ecosystem where innovation and partnerships thrive. The Sunshine Project is a strong example of this, bringing families together through education, sport, and well-being. By launching the ANESSA Sunshine Project here, we can refine and scale the initiative into neighboring markets, ensuring more families benefit from enriching experiences that champion health and connection. ” As part of its ongoing commitment to protecting families under the sun, ANESSA has evolved its Mild series to address key barriers to kids’ safe outdoor play - including concerns around sunscreen harshness and suitability for children. The enhanced ANESSA Mild series - including the Mild Milk SPF50+ PA++++ and Mild Gel SPF35 PA+++ - is specially formulated to be gentle on sensitive skin, making it ideal for kids. Lightweight, nourishing, and easy to apply, the Mild series provides effective sun protection without the harshness often associated with traditional sunscreens. Additional benefits, such as water resistance, ensure the protection stays on during active play. Each participant at the JFA | ANESSA Kids Event received the enhanced Mild Milk, along with a UV t-shirt that changes color in sunlight, designed to raise awareness and encourage sun-safe habits among children. By combining gentle, effective sun protection with education, ANESSA continues to help kids enjoy the outdoors safely while fostering healthy suncare habits from a young age.

This World Sight Day, the global call to #LoveYourEyes feels especially urgent for families and professionals in Singapore, where long hours on digital devices have quietly become the norm. A Nation at Risk of Digital Eye Fatigue Earlier this year, the Ministry of Health (MOH) issued updated Guidance on Screen Use in Children, outlining practical recommendations for managing screen time according to age. Yet, for many families, constant digital exposure remains unavoidable. Singaporean children now spend up to 8. 5 hours a day on screens, while adults average more than seven. This sustained digital load contributes to eye strain, fatigue, and oxidative stress, which over time may lead to long-term vision problems. The problem extends beyond tired eyes in Singapore, often called the “Myopia Capital of the World”, is projected to see 80–90% of adults over 18 affected by myopia by 2050. Alarmingly, many will develop high myopia, increasing the risk of irreversible eye conditions such as glaucoma and retinal detachment. Experts agree that the focus should not only be on preventing myopia, but also on building eye resilience at every age. A key part of that resilience lies in nutrition, the internal care that helps eyes recover and function optimally amid constant exposure to blue light. Nutrition: The Missing Link in Eye Resilience Research shows that nutrients like lutein, zeaxanthin, bilberry, and DHA play an essential role in supporting visual development, filtering harmful blue light, and reducing fatigue. As these nutrients are often lacking in modern diets, many families are turning to science-backed eye supplements for daily protection. Recognising this growing need for everyday eye support, LAC (Leader in Antioxidative Control™) has developed targeted formulations that provide 360° protection for both adults and children: Berry Clear® – 360° Eye Protection Formulated with lutein, zeaxanthin, bilberry, and goji berry extracts, Berry Clear® delivers comprehensive antioxidant support. It helps filter blue light, improve circulation, and deliver oxygen and nutrients to the eyes, supporting retinal health for adults constantly exposed to digital screens. Super-I™ Junior – For Healthy Eyes Specially designed for children, this formulation contains lutein, bilberry, and DHA to support visual development, retinal health, and resilience against digital strain in young eyes. It’s a convenient way for families to help their kids maintain healthy vision in today’s digital-first world. Expert Insights: Building Eye Health from the Inside Out To gain deeper insights into the hidden impact of digital lifestyles and the role of nutrition in protecting our eyes, our team spoke with Ms Koh Lian Xi, Consultant Nutritionist at LAC Singapore. Interview Ms Koh Lian Xi, Consultant Nutritionist at LAC Singapore 1. The hidden toll of digital lifestyles on adult eyes and how simple daily adjustments could help Ms Koh Lian Xi: In today’s always-on world, our eyes rarely get a break. Many adults spend hours switching between work screens, mobile devices, and digital entertainment. While we may not notice it immediately, this constant visual load takes a toll. Symptoms like dryness, blurred vision, headaches and fatigue are becoming increasingly common signs of digital eye strain, caused by prolonged blue-light exposure and oxidative stress on the retina. The encouraging news is that protecting our eyes doesn’t always require drastic changes. It is about consistency and care, from the inside out. Simple habits such as following the 20-20-20 rule, adjusting screen brightness, staying hydrated, and spending more time outdoors all help ease daily strain. Equally important, however, is nourishing the eyes from within through science-backed nutrients and targeted supplementation that support retinal health and visual clarity, especially for those who spend long hours on digital devices. Ultimately, healthy vision isn’t just about relieving discomfort but building long-term resilience to meet the demands of modern life. 2. How ingredients like lutein, zeaxanthin, and bilberry are becoming “superfoods” for vision, complementing diets and lifestyle habits to support eye health Ms Koh Lian Xi: Eye health and nutrition are deeply interconnected. Nutrients such as lutein and zeaxanthin act as internal filters for blue light, protecting the macula and supporting sharp central vision. Meanwhile, bilberry’s rich antioxidant profile enhances blood flow and helps reduce eye fatigue from prolonged screen use. Together, these nutrients combat oxidative stress, one of the main contributors to long-term vision decline. Increasingly recognised as “superfoods for the eyes,” these ingredients are often lacking in modern diets. For busy adults and families, targeted formulations can help bridge this nutritional gap, complementing healthy habits to keep eyes strong, comfortable, and well-protected. LAC’s targeted eye-health range is developed with this inside-out approach, combining science-backed ingredients that support retinal health, relieve digital fatigue, and promote lifelong visual wellness. Designed for everyday convenience, these formulations easily fit into modern routines, ideal for busy individuals looking to care for their eyes without added complexity. Seeing Clearly into the Future This World Sight Day serves as a reminder that eye care goes far beyond annual check-ups, it’s a daily commitment to balance digital life with mindful habits and proper nourishment. Whether it’s through lifestyle adjustments or nutritional support from LAC’s Berry Clear® and Super-I™ Junior, protecting our eyes today ensures clearer, stronger vision for tomorrow.

Following successful launches in Thailand and Malaysia, Leapmotor now makes its way to Singapore as its third market entry in Southeast Asia. This milestone deepens Cycle & Carriage’s partnership with Stellantis, a relationship that began in 2006 with Citroën and grew further in early 2025 with the addition of PEUGEOT. “Our long partnership with Stellantis is built on a shared commitment to innovation, quality and customer satisfaction. With Citroën, PEUGEOT and now Leapmotor under one roof, Cycle & Carriage is well-positioned to offer customers even greater choice and value,” said Wilfrid Foo, Managing Director, Cycle & Carriage Singapore. “The Leapmotor C10 is an EV that brings meaningful technology, real-world usability and comfort to the everyday driver. We have been awaiting its arrival and are confident that it will make a substantial impact on the EV market. ” Customer-Centred, Everyday-Ready Thoughtfully designed from the ground up, the Leapmotor C10 is built for real life, whether it’s the daily commute, the school run or an impromptu road trip. More than an electric SUV, it’s a space for living. With a length of 4,739mm, a generous 2,825mm wheelbase and a height of 1,680mm, the C10 offers one of the roomiest cabins in its segment. Complementing these dimensions, the C10's interior design is focused on maximising flexibility and ease of use for the driver and passengers alike. Front seats that recline 180 degrees create a resting space when parked, while 26 cleverly placed storage compartments, four bottle holders in each door pocket, and four cupholders keep essentials tidy and within reach, a small but important convenience for families. Materials inside are selected with care. OEKO-Tex® Standard 100 silicone seat fabric offers a soft, baby-safe surface that’s both durable and easy to clean. In addition, an advanced built-in Healthy Air Quality management system filters out airborne particles and allergens, promoting a safer, healthier in-cabin environment. The cabin feels open and serene thanks to a 2. 1㎡ panoramic sunroof, while dual-zone climate control, sculpted 3D ergonomic seats, and deep seat cushioning ensure long lasting comfort for all occupants. The atmosphere is enhanced by rhythmic ambient lighting and intelligently concealed air vents, which together create a clean, uncluttered aesthetic that makes the space feel calm and considered. From layout to materials, the C10’s interior is a reflection of the Leapmotor’s belief in practical innovation – putting real human needs first. Advanced Yet Accessible Engineering Built on Leapmotor’s most advanced platform to date – the LEAP 3. 0 architecture – the C10 is the brand’s first global model. Purpose-developed for international markets, it marks Leapmotor’s debut offering in Singapore. To suit local conditions, the C10’s drivetrain has been carefully localised to qualify for the Category A Certificate Of Entitlement. It delivers 134 bhp (100kW) and 320 Nm of torque, offering smooth, usable performance that makes every day driving effortless. A 69. 9kWh battery supports up to 420km of range (WLTP combined) and can be charged from 30 to 80% in just 30 minutes using DC fast charging — perfect for top-ups during a coffee break. Underpinning the car is CTC 2. 0 (Cell-to-Chassis) technology, a next-generation approach to battery integration that increases structural rigidity for crash protection, improves packaging efficiency and boosts energy transfer rates. Safety and handling achieved EuroNCAP five-star development standards, and the chassis has been optimised to global dynamic targets to ensure a planted, confident feel whether you’re in city traffic or on the expressway. Technology That Thinks, See, Listen and Acts Better The C10 features a modern, intuitive tech suite designed to enhance every drive. The core of the experience is enabled by Leap Pilot, an advanced driver-assistance system offering 16 active safety features, all supported by 12 high-precision sensors that help the car see and respond more like a seasoned driver. The cockpit features a 10. 25” high-definition digital instrument panel paired with a 14. 6” centre touchscreen, both powered by Leap OS 4. 0. The advanced infotainment system offers real-time navigation, over-the-air updates and responsive voice control for natural, hands-free operation. For entertainment, the C10 is fitted with 12 high-quality speakers and AI-enhanced audio processing that adapts playback to the environment, delivering immersive audio experience for every occupant. Leapmotor has engineered the C10 to focus on ultimate refinement. This includes extensive noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) enhancements — such as 40 acoustic measures and ultra-quiet electric motor tuning — all contributing to a calm, refined ride that rivals’ luxury segment offerings. Aerodynamics also contributes to the hush. With an impressively low drag coefficient of 0. 3 Cd, and features like an active grille shutter and frameless rain-sensing wipers, the C10 cuts through the air efficiently, reducing wind noise while maximising range. Strategic Moves The launch of Leapmotor in Singapore is also part of Stellantis' broader international strategy to lead the industry in post-combustion mobility, by creating accessible, tech enabled EVs. The C10, as Leapmotor’s first global model, is a key pillar of this plan. Formed in 2023, the Leapmotor International joint venture between Stellantis and Leapmotor combines deep manufacturing expertise with innovation-driven product development to offer a new generation of electric vehicles tailored to global markets. Singapore joins a growing list of countries across Southeast Asia, Europe and beyond, where Leapmotor models are being introduced under Stellantis stewardship. “The launch of the Leapmotor C10 in Singapore represents a significant milestone in Stellantis’s journey across Asia Pacific. The C10 is a perfect fit for Singapore’s growing electrified mobility needs, being an innovative, practical, and intuitively designed vehicle for modern drivers. Together with our partner Cycle & Carriage for making this inauguration a success, we are pleased that Singaporeans can now experience the C10 in person, a vehicle that unites Stellantis’s world-class quality standards with Leapmotor’s cutting-edge technology,” said Isaac Yeo, Managing Director of... --- - Published: 2025-11-02 - Modified: 2025-11-02 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/dear-evan-hansen-a-heartfelt-journey-of-connection-and-belonging-now-showing-at-sands-theatre-marina-bay-sands/ - Categories: ENTERTAINMENT - Tags: Benj Pasek, Dear Evan Hansen, Justin Paul, Marina Bay Sands, Sands Theatre, Steven Levenson, You will be found When a musical arrives bearing the credentials of being both a Broadway and West End phenomenon, expectations naturally soar. Dear Evan Hansen, with a book by Steven Levenson and music and lyrics by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, has earned its place in the pantheon of modern theatre through accolades including the Tony® Award for Best Musical, the Olivier® Award for Best New Musical, and the Grammy® Award for Best Musical Theatre Album. Its Singapore premiere at the Sands Theatre, Marina Bay Sands, from 30 October 2025, presented by Base Entertainment Asia, promised an unforgettable experience and it largely delivers. The story, which explores the universal human desire to be seen and accepted, resonates deeply in a world increasingly dominated by digital interaction and social expectations. The musical introduces audiences to Evan Hansen, a socially anxious high school student yearning to fit in. In his pursuit of acceptance, Evan becomes entangled in a lie that quickly spirals beyond his control. What follows is a journey of reckoning, as Evan confronts the truth about himself, his relationships, and the consequences of his choices. This narrative, anchored by a score that has become iconic in contemporary musical theatre, includes unforgettable songs such as “Waving Through a Window”, “You Will Be Found”, and “For Forever”. These songs transcend the stage, acting as cultural touchstones for a generation grappling with identity, connection, and belonging. The Singapore production, drawing from the UK touring version, maintains the show’s emotional intensity and dramatic arc, while ensuring it feels fresh and immediate for local audiences. Ellis Kirk reprises the role of Evan Hansen for the Singapore season, bringing both vulnerability and emotional depth to the character. His performance captures Evan’s awkwardness and yearning for connection with remarkable nuance, while his vocal delivery is crisp and expressive, perfectly suited to the contemporary pop-infused score. Rebecca McKinnis, returning as Evan’s mother Heidi Hansen, offers warmth and complexity, portraying a parent caught between love, grief, and the occasional blind spot. Zoë Athena’s portrayal of Zoe Murphy is equally compelling, radiating quiet strength while conveying the fragility of a young woman navigating grief and expectations. The ensemble, including Helen Anker and Hal Fowler as Cynthia and Larry Murphy, delivers performances full of authenticity, portraying parental grief and hope with a delicate balance that complements the central story. Supporting roles, from Connor and Jared to Alana Beck, enrich the tapestry of teenage life, highlighting the pressures and social dynamics that shape the narrative. Collectively, the international cast demonstrates remarkable cohesion, bringing sincerity and emotional resonance to every scene. The production design at Sands Theatre is visually striking, combining intimate stage work with modern technology, including projections and social-media-inspired visuals. The lighting and set design effectively convey the oscillation between Evan’s inner world and the external pressures he faces, while the integration of screens and digital elements reinforces the show’s commentary on social media and perception. The use of technology enhances rather than overwhelms the performances, creating a modern aesthetic that feels both relevant and immersive. Musically, the production shines, with a mix of soaring ballads and contemporary pop melodies performed with clarity and energy. The theatre itself provides an ideal environment, offering excellent sightlines, acoustics, and a polished venue experience that supports the production’s ambitious staging. What sets Dear Evan Hansen apart is its exploration of deeply human themes. At its core, the musical is a meditation on the need for connection, the courage to confront truth, and the ways in which lies, however well-intentioned, can complicate our lives. It addresses contemporary issues such as mental health, social media pressures, and the search for self-worth, all while maintaining accessibility and emotional resonance. In Singapore, where young people often navigate academic pressures alongside social expectations and online personas, the story feels particularly poignant. The musical does not shy away from difficult emotions; instead, it invites audiences to empathize with its characters, to feel the weight of their isolation, and ultimately to celebrate the transformative power of human connection. Dear Evan Hansen is a production that stays with you long after the curtain falls. From the opening number, “Waving Through a Window”, to the climactic “You Will Be Found”, the show balances the exhilaration of musical theatre with the introspection of a deeply personal story. While the occasional reliance on digital projections may at times draw attention away from the performers, and certain scenes in the second act linger a touch longer than necessary, these minor points do little to detract from the overall impact of the production. The musical succeeds in creating moments of catharsis, empathy, and hope, reminding audiences that even in a world of complexity and misunderstanding, we can find connection and understanding. The Singapore premiere of Dear Evan Hansen is a triumph of storytelling, performance, and production. The musical’s powerful narrative, heartfelt performances, and resonant score combine to deliver an experience that is both moving and unforgettable. It is a show that speaks to individuals and a generation alike, offering a message of hope, understanding, and the enduring importance of being seen. For theatre-goers in Singapore, attending this production is not merely a night of entertainment, it is an opportunity to be part of a story that reminds us all: you will be found.

Our heating planet is the hot body no one ever wanted. With a future of rising heat on the horizon, how will every other body on the planet cope? Supported by the SG Eco Fund and the DesignSingapore Council, global brand practice Anak presents HOT BODIES, an exhibition of Heatwear investigating innovative ways fashion and apparel can radically reinvent how human bodies cope with rising heat. Explored from the lens of a long-time global expert in heat and humidity – Singapore, the world’s 3rd most densely populated country, sitting just above the Equator – HOT BODIES spans a range of practical responses to the most burning question of our time: how will humanity cope, much less thrive, in a future hotter than ever? ONE HOT BODY IS MAKING EVERY BODY HOT Opening on December 6, 2025 at New Bahru, HOT BODIES comes at an urgent time. According to the Meteorological Service Singapore, the past 10 years have been the hottest in Singapore’s history. Beyond our borders, extreme heat events are dominating global news headlines more than ever. But as the world rapidly changes, our behavioural and sartorial choices have not kept up. For instance, our predominant response to heat – staying indoors and blasting air-conditioning – is increasingly unsustainable, not just for our planet’s health, but our own, too. “In Singapore, we’ve become an ‘air-con nation’, and I believe this is increasingly applicable to other nations across the world as temperatures continue to rise globally. However, hiding indoors just isn’t a sustainable option. It harms our health and the planet. Our research asks: what if we made heat our ally instead of our enemy? Through physical-heat conditioning, cooling measures, and smarter design, we can build resilience and thrive in rising temperatures. HOT BODIES offers a powerful platform to explore this tropical-rooted and climate-responsive narrative, transforming heat from threat to muse, and inviting all of us to reimagine what living well in a warming world can look like,” said Associate Professor Jason Lee, Director, Heat Resilience & Performance Centre at NUS Medicine. 10 CREATIVES. 10 UNIQUE APPROACHES TO HEAT RESILIENCE. In consultation with a panel of research experts including Associate Professor Jason Lee, HOT BODIES uses apparel design and wearables to help us rethink what it means to look, feel, and be “hot” in the 21st Century. Targeting the critical solar effects of heat, humidity and UV radiation, the exhibition showcases a collection of 10 specially commissioned pieces co-created by creatives and designers around the world – ranging from practical ready-to-wear and accessible sun accessories, to conceptual fashion and speculative designs radically rethinking our relationship to heat. The global brief provoked collaborators to explore not “How do we get out of heat? ” but “What can we get out of heat? ” The HOT BODIES collection features THE SUNSHELL by French graphic artist Jean Jullien, a UPF 50 cape that doubles as a vehicle for play, turning sun protection into an adventure; THE COOL COLLAR by Singaporean jewellery brand TANCHEN STUDIO, a jade statement neckpiece that targets the neck and chest for hyper-efficient cooling; THE HARDWEAR JACKET by Hong Kong workwear brand TMS. SITE, a protective garment designed to address the acute needs of outdoor workers; and THE SELF CONDITIONER by London-based fashion designer HARRI, a conceptual inflatable garment that encases the wearer in a cocoon of self-contained cooling. These will premiere alongside other heatwear pieces by Malaysian batik artist FERN, Ho Chi Minh City-based design studio THE IDIOT, Japanese contemporary menswear brand Front Office, Spanish experimental studio STUDIO BUJ, and London-based design project Greater Goods and designer Jaimus Tailor. “HOT BODIES is the natural continuation of Anak’s mission to showcase an Asian creative point of view to a global audience. With Good Threads, we explored how sustainability and fashion can intersect meaningfully through upcycled performance wear. HOT BODIES delves further, confronting the realities of climate change through a lens that is deeply tropical, yet universally urgent. Heat, humidity and UV exposure have been a part of our everyday lives here in Singapore for centuries, but as it becomes more and more relevant to the rest of the world, we thought it was time we asked how design can not only protect us, but also inspire new ways of living? The future of fashion and Heatwear must be reimagined so that we can thrive, not just cope, with a future hotter than ever. ” said Hanyi Lee, curator of HOT BODIES. "HOT BODIES is a thoughtful exploration of how design shapes the way we live in a time of rising temperatures and climate change. Building off its exhibition preview held during Singapore Design Week 2025, we hope visitors will come and be inspired by how design and creativity can drive positive impact, creating innovative solutions for more resilient futures,” said Jody Teo, Director of Marketing Communications & Outreach at DesignSingapore Council. GET READY FOR HOTTER LIVING Aside from the exhibition of Heatwear pieces, HOT BODIES also features an Emporium of shoppable Heatwear items such as handheld fans, sunstraps, and UV keychain indicators – some of which are co designed with creatives such as Jaimus Tailor, Jean Jullien, and TANCHEN Studio. As part of the wider Emporium experience, visitors can also expect a Sunscreen Bar where they can test over 80 products, as well as a Hydration Bar with tailored electrolyte drinks. Over the 3-week exhibition period, visitors to HOT BODIES can also sign up for workshops curated by Anak. A dedicated event space within the HOT BODIES venue will host panels, gatherings, and things to do, including one-time-only programs by Vogue Singapore, Moom Health, TCM practitioners, and weekly activations like “Sunblock Face Paint Party: Become a Sun Hero! ” On 5 December, HOT BODIES will be previewed to Heatwear enthusiasts, subject matter experts, industry professionals, project sponsors, as well as partners and communities from the... --- - Published: 2025-10-29 - Modified: 2025-10-29 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/christmas-on-a-great-street-2025-lights-up-orchard-road-in-celebration-of-sg60/ - Categories: EVENTS - Tags: Christmas on a Great Street, Christmas on A Great Street 2025, COAGS, KIZTOPIA, Merli, Orchard Road, Orchard Road Business Association, SG60 Christmas on A Great Street (COAGS) 2025 will transform Orchard Road into a dazzling festive wonderland, rounding off Singapore’s SG60 celebrations in grand style this year end.

Enter Ottie’s Fishy Business, Singapore’s first marketing-themed card game created by local founder Cassandra Ong, who wears many hats as a marketer, entrepreneur, and mother. Developed by Ong’s fractional marketing agency OtterHalf, this first-of-its-kind, screen-free card game brings to life real-world marketing concepts through otter-ly adorable storytelling and gameplay. Aimed at children aged seven and up, as well as curious adults, the game teaches the fundamentals of marketing from branding and storytelling to influencer marketing and ethics in a fun and relatable way. From Founder to Mumpreneur: The Story Behind Ottie’s Fishy Business Cassandra Ong’s journey from marketer to game creator was deeply personal. Having faced early entrepreneurial “flops” as a child due to a lack of marketing knowledge, she became passionate about ensuring today’s young minds don’t face the same challenges. Her dedication culminated in an eight-month process of game design, testing, and refinement, a true labour of love that bridges motherhood, creativity, and education. Her company, OtterHalf, played a pivotal role in turning the idea into reality, managing everything from branding and design to social media strategy. The game has since become more than a playful learning tool, it’s a symbol of how marketing can be demystified, one card at a time. Interview with Cassandra Ong, Founder of OtterHalf and Creator of Ottie’s Fishy Business To learn more about the inspiration, challenges, and creative journey behind Singapore’s first marketing-themed card game, our team spoke with Cassandra Ong, founder of fractional marketing agency OtterHalf and the creator of Ottie’s Fishy Business. In this candid conversation, Cassandra shares how her daughters inspired her idea, what it took to turn it into reality, and how the game is helping both children and adults discover that marketing can, indeed, be fun. 1) What sparked the idea for Ottie’s Fishy Business, and how did your daughters inspire you to bring this game to life? Cassandra Ong: It all started with one of those classic mum moments. One evening, my daughters asked, “Mama, what do you do at work? ” I tried explaining marketing, but quickly realised it sounded abstract and full of jargon. That got me thinking. Marketing shapes almost everything we see, buy, or believe, even at a young age. Yet I was only taught marketing in university. Because I never had earlier exposure, I experienced my share of failures as a kid — from a sticker business that never took off, to a flea market stall that didn’t sell a thing. Looking back, I realise that a little marketing knowledge could have drastically changed the outcome. Other than that, in my work, I’ve seen so many founders who are brilliant at building products but completely lost when it comes to marketing. They never learnt it in school, even though it’s just as important to them today as subjects like Economics and Math. So I thought to myself: why don’t we teach marketing concepts to all the kids and curious adults in a simple and relatable way? Knowing my daughters love playing card games like UNO and icon-matching games, I decided to create something that would teach marketing in the same fun, screen-free way that card games do. That became Ottie’s Fishy Business, a marketing-themed card game that brings together my worlds of motherhood, storytelling, and marketing. It had a waitlist of more than 50 people before launch, and to date, 2 weeks after launch, has been played by more than 75 groups and counting. 2) Can you share what the eight-month journey of developing, prototyping, and testing the game was like? Were there any memorable challenges or “aha! ” moments along the way? Cassandra Ong: It was equal parts chaos and magic, very much like parenting. The hardest part of the process was simplifying complex marketing concepts to make them understandable for a 7-year-old. If you had seen the very first version of our card game, you would have been so confused. We tried to incorporate too many ideas, yet I still thought it was the best version ever. Thankfully, my teammate kept reminding me to playtest it with my target audience — and I did, with my 7-year-old, my teenager niece and nephew, and my husband. The initial feedback was that the game was too slow, too boring, and too confusing. Those honest comments were painful but necessary. In fact, the first “aha! ” moment came during playtesting with my daughters. Hearing my 7-year-old shout “market research,” “A/B test,” and “budgeting” during the game gave me a sense of achievement I wasn’t prepared for. Even if she doesn’t grasp every term perfectly yet, the fact that she’s exposed to them now makes it all worthwhile. Another “aha! ” moment happened when I spoke with a marketing lecturer from Singapore Polytechnic. After understanding the gameplay, he played it with his students and immediately bought four more sets. I still remember his words: “Cass, I was very excited when you told me you created a game to teach marketing. I’ve been trying to find entertaining ways to teach my students marketing concepts. ” Hearing that, and knowing he now uses it in his marketing lectures, made me feel like the card game actually adds value to others. It’s no longer just me thinking that it’s valuable. Others find value in playing the game too. 3) How does the game work and how do players help Ottie the Otter build her fish business? Cassandra Ong: In Ottie’s Fishy Business, players help Ottie the otter grow her small fish stand into a thriving business using strategy, creativity, and a bit of luck. The deck has 55 beautifully illustrated cards: Mission Cards, Action Cards, and Wild Cards, each introducing real-world marketing scenarios. Here’s how it works: Players collect Mission Cards to attract new customers to Ottie’s fish stand. Four Mission Cards are placed on the table, each one representing a marketing strategy that... --- - Published: 2025-10-24 - Modified: 2025-10-25 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/earthopia-fest-youths-take-charge-in-sustainability-festival-turning-awareness-into-action/ - Categories: EVENTS - Tags: City Sprouts, Dhoby Ghaut Green, Earthopia Fest, Earthopia Fest 2025, Just Keep Thinking Two-day festival, held over Friday and Saturday, sparks new green habits through practical workshops and activities focused on cutting waste, upcycling, and boosting wellbeing.

From mindful eating, to upcycling crafts, to taking care of our own wellbeing, Earthopia makes green living practical and uplifting. Kong Man Jing (Biogirl MJ), co-founder of Just Keep Thinking shares, “Science and sustainability should be fun, relatable, and easy to put into practice. Earthopia Fest is about showing that even small changes in our lifestyle and the food we eat can make a real difference. I hope the festival sparks curiosity and empowers young people to see that living sustainably can be both exciting and rewarding. ” Focusing on Climate Action, she will run a workshop helping participants brainstorm, script, and create digital content on sustainability. Attendees will learn to simplify green ideas into powerful stories, leaving with real skills to support climate solutions in Singapore. Meanwhile, under Circular Living, attendees can explore a series of workshops spanning food, craft, and style. Circular food sessions will focus on reducing waste in the kitchen, showing how everyday ingredients can be transformed into delicious, sustainable dishes. Circular craft workshops invite participants to give discarded items new life as functional or decorative pieces, turning waste into something of value. For those interested in fashion, circular style sessions will highlight thrift and styling tips, demonstrating how wardrobes can be refreshed sustainably through creative upcycling and pairing pre-loved finds in new ways. Together, these activities provide not only practical skills but also inspire a mindset of creativity, resourcefulness, and conscious living. The Wellness track, set in the greenery of Dhoby Ghaut, links self-care to caring for the planet. Attendees can immerse themselves in Elemental Yoga that blends movement with mindfulness, or Gong Bath where healing vibrations promote deep rest, mental clarity, and emotional balance. These sessions remind us that sustainability is not only about what we consume, but also about how we nurture our own wellbeing to stay resilient in creating positive change. Festival Beats: From Roving Acts to Evening Stage Shows Earthopia Fest celebrates creativity through live music and roving performances. Coffee-Clubbing concept party organiser Beans & Beats, will fill the grounds with vibrant energy during the day. As the sun sets, the stage will transform into a community concert space, featuring popular local acts such as Benjamin Kheng, Island Voices, Estelle Fly, and DJ Hammy. Every show brings the community together, celebrating sustainability and shared purpose in a vibrant, fun way. Taste, Shop, and Do Good: Retail and F&B at Earthopia Fest Beyond workshops and performances, Earthopia Fest invites attendees to explore a feel-good retail marketplace and conscious F&B zone.

With around 4 in 10 children in Singapore born via C-section, more parents are becoming aware of the unique nutritional and developmental needs of their little ones. To shed light on this important topic, Mead Johnson Nutrition hosted an exclusive sharing session at FairPrice VivoCity, led by Dr. Kao Pao-Tang, paediatrician from IBCA@Parkway Medicentre together with actress and Enfagrow A+ mum Sora Ma. The event coincided with the launch of Enfagrow A+ Pro C-Biome, a new toddler formula designed especially for C-section children. The launch highlighted Mead Johnson Nutrition’s ongoing commitment to early childhood nutrition and innovation, celebrating the company’s 120th anniversary alongside Singapore’s SG60 milestone, symbolising a shared legacy of nurturing generations together. At the event, Dr. Kao and Sora Ma discussed the unique challenges faced by children born via C-section, while Mead Johnson Nutrition introduced its latest formulation to support stronger immunity and holistic brain development through its 2x higher 2’-FL, prebiotics, MFGM & DHA* formulation. (Compared to Enfagrow A+ Pro Stage 3, 2’-FL level per serving) A Closer Look: How Birth Methods Affect Gut Health While most parents research their delivery options thoroughly, few may be aware of how a baby’s mode of delivery can shape gut health. To better understand this connection, we spoke with Dr. Kao Pao Tang, who shared his insights on early gut microbiome development and practical ways parents can help strengthen their child’s immunity. Interview with Dr. Kao Pao Tang, Paediatrician from IBCA@Parkway Medicentre 1) Many mums research their delivery process carefully, but few may know about how birth methods affect a child’s gut health. Could you explain this simply for parents? Dr. Kao Pao-Tang: Vaginal births expose babies to a wider variety of friendly bacteria, helping their gut develop quickly. C-section babies start with fewer types of bacteria, but this difference can be reduced through good nutrition and exposure to the home environment over time. 2) How common are C-section births in Singapore today, and what does that mean for families? Dr. Kao Pao-Tang: Of late, roughly 4 in 10 births in Singapore are now by C-section – one of the highest rates in the region. That means many families will have children whose microbiomes begin differently, so it’s important to support their immunity through balanced nutrition, not to feel worried or guilty about the delivery method. 3) What are some of the most common misconceptions parents have about C-section children and their immunity? Dr. Kao Pao-Tang: The biggest myth is that C-section children are “weaker. ” They aren’t – their immune systems just develop differently. With good nutrition, enough rest, physical activity, and a supportive environment, C-section children can be just as resilient and healthy as any other child. 4) Can you share why gut health is so important in the first three years of life? Dr. Kao Pao-Tang: This is when the microbiome and immune system are learning to communicate. The gut is where most of the immune training happens, and this “training period” shapes how children respond to future infections and allergies. Building a healthy gut early sets the foundation for long–term wellness. 5) Beyond nutrition, what practical advice would you give parents who want to strengthen their child’s immunity? Dr. Kao Pao-Tang: Simple routines help – adequate sleep, daily outdoor play, balanced meals, and vaccination according to schedule. Avoid overuse of antibiotics, which can disturb gut balance. Encourage variety in the diet, including fruits, vegetables, and fibre–rich foods to feed good gut bacteria. 6) How can mums and dads feel reassured that they are giving their child the best support, especially if they had a C-section birth? Dr. Kao Pao-Tang: Parents can take comfort in knowing that every child’s immune system can adapt and grow stronger with time. What matters most is creating a nurturing, stress–free environment, offering balanced nutrition, and maintaining regular health checkups. It’s not about how a child was born, but how we support their growth afterward. Product Insights from Mead Johnson Nutrition's spokesperson 1) What makes the new Enfagrow A+ Pro C-Biome different from other toddler formulas on the market? Mead Johnson Nutrition's spokesperson: Enfagrow A+ Pro C-Biome is scientifically formulated with 2x higher 2’-FL*, prebiotics and MFGM & DHA to strengthen immunity & support holistic brain development in children, especially C-section children. With 120 years of leadership in paediatric nutrition, Mead Johnson Nutrition has been the pioneer in the introduction of DHA and MFGM in children formula milk, the only brand** in Singapore that provide MFGM and DHA to support holistic brain development. *Compared to Enfagrow A+ Pro Stage 3, 2’-FL level per serving. **Compared to key growing-up milk brands in Singapore as at Sept 2025. 2) Is this formula suitable for all children, or should parents think of it as more targeted? Mead Johnson Nutrition's spokesperson: Enfagrow A+ Pro C-Biome is scientifically formulated to support stronger immunity and brain development in all children, not just C-section children. If your child falls sick easily or immune health is your key concern, feel free to try Enfagrow A+ Pro C-Biome with 2x higher 2’-FL* and prebiotics for stronger immunity and gut health. *Compared to Enfagrow A+ Pro Stage 3, 2’-FL level per serving. The rise of C-section deliveries in Singapore highlights an evolving landscape of parenthood, one where awareness, science, and proactive nutrition play increasingly vital roles. As Mead Johnson Nutrition celebrates 120 years of innovation, the launch of Enfagrow A+ Pro C-Biome reaffirms the brand’s commitment to nourishing every child for a stronger, smarter future. Whether born naturally or via C-section, every child deserves the best start in life and with the right nutrition and care, parents can confidently nurture their child’s immunity, gut health, and overall development.

But a hectic schedule doesn’t mean you have to compromise on healthy, radiant skin. With the right strategies, you can achieve a glowing complexion in just minutes a day. Here’s your no-fuss guide to skincare that fits even the busiest routines. 1. Streamline Your Skincare Routine Forget 10-step regimens! Focus on three essentials: cleanse, moisturize, protect. Cleanse: Use a gentle, hydrating cleanser to remove dirt without stripping natural oils. Moisturize: Opt for a lightweight formula with hyaluronic acid for all-day hydration. Protect: Apply at least SPF 30+ daily even indoors to prevent sun damage and premature aging. 2. Multitasking Beauty Products Save time (and money) with products that pull double duty: Tinted Moisturizer with SPF: Hydrates, protects, and evens skin tone. Lip & Cheek Stain: Adds a natural flush to lips and cheeks in seconds. BB Cream: Combines moisturizer, primer, and light coverage in one. 3. Hydrate from the Inside Out Dehydration dulls skin, so sip your way to radiance: Drink 8-10 glasses of water daily. Snack on water-rich foods like cucumbers, berries, and oranges. Avoid excess caffeine, which can dehydrate skin. Quick Hack: Set hourly phone reminders to drink water! 4. Master the 5-Minute Makeup Routine Enhance your natural beauty without spending hours: Concealer: Brighten under-eyes and cover blemishes. Mascara: Define lashes for an awake, polished look. Tinted Lip Balm: Add subtle color and moisture. 5. DIY Beauty Treatments Pamper your skin at home with pantry staples: Oatmeal & Honey Mask: Soothes irritation and locks in moisture. Coffee Scrub: Exfoliates and boosts circulation (mix grounds with coconut oil). Green Tea Toner: Reduces redness and fights acne (brew, cool, and spritz! ). 6. Sleep Your Way to Better Skin Even 1-2 extra hours of sleep can transform your skin: Use silk pillowcases to reduce friction and wrinkles. Apply a nighttime moisturizer with retinol for cell renewal. Try a 10-minute meditation app to unwind before bed. 7. Self-Care Isn’t Selfish Prioritize small moments of mindfulness: Take 5 deep breaths while waiting for your coffee. Apply a face mask during your favorite TV show. Swap scrolling for a 10-minute walk—it boosts circulation for a natural glow. Radiant skin isn’t about perfection—it’s about consistency and simplicity. By focusing on what truly works for your skin and lifestyle, you can achieve a healthy glow without adding stress to your day. Remember, self-care is a necessity, not a luxury!

This world-class exhibition combines two extraordinary showcases, Dinosaurs of Patagonia and Six Extinctions to tell the epic story of life, loss, and survival on our planet. A Celebration of Science and Discovery Each fossil in Dinosaurs of Patagonia, featured within DINOSAURS | EXTINCTIONS | US, tells a story of discovery and perseverance, inviting visitors to explore how science connects us to our past and to the planet we share. Presented internationally by Akrom Pty Ltd (Australia), Dinosaurs of Patagonia celebrates decades of pioneering research and scientific leadership by the Museo Paleontológico Egidio Feruglio (MEF), sharing the legacy of Argentine palaeontology with audiences around the world. As part of the exhibition, Six Extinctions guides visitors through Earth’s most dramatic moments of change, events that wiped out most life yet ultimately shaped the planet we know today. By examining the causes and consequences of the five great mass extinctions, as well as humanity’s role in the ongoing sixth, the exhibition connects the past to the present, showing that extinction is both a story of loss and renewal. With a large collection of rare fossils, models, dinosaur skeletons, and science-based storytelling, visitors are encouraged to reflect on humanity’s impact and the power we have to influence what survives next. Interview with Maximiliano Iberlucea, Paleotechnician & Head of Exhibition Workshop – Museo Paleontológico Egidio Feruglio (MEF), Trelew, Argentina. Our team spoke to Maximiliano Iberlucea, Paleotechnician and Head of Exhibition Workshop at Museo Paleontológico Egidio Feruglio (MEF) in Trelew, Argentina, to learn more about what goes on behind the scenes. He shared fascinating insights into the meticulous work involved in preparing fossils for research and exhibition, his journey from a curious teenager volunteering in paleontology to becoming a professional in the field, and his advice for young dinosaur enthusiasts dreaming of following in his footsteps. 1) Most people know about palaeontologists, but not paleotechnicians. How would you explain the difference, and why is your role so important? Maximiliano Iberlucea: Paleontologists design and lead the research projects. They go out into the field and conduct the scientific studies on the fossils that are collected. As paleotechnicians, we assist researchers during fieldwork and carry out the manual cleaning and preparation processes that allow fossils to be studied, stored in collections, and exhibited, as is happening here in Singapore. 2) What’s one behind-the-scenes aspect of your work that visitors would be surprised to learn about? Maximiliano Iberlucea: I find the whole process fascinating, the discovery, the cleaning of the material, the assembly of the skeleton. It brings together so many disciplines that it becomes a truly dynamic and engaging field. 3) You started as a volunteer in your teenage years. What first sparked your fascination with fossils? Looking back at your career, was there a moment when you realised this passion could become a job? Maximiliano Iberlucea: What child doesn’t love dinosaurs? Being part of the discovery of one is extraordinary. At that age, it sparks curiosity, imagination, and a love of learning, things that stay with us throughout life. There’s nothing better than turning what you’re passionate about into your profession. 4) What skills or qualities do you think are most important to succeed as a paleotechnician? Maximiliano Iberlucea: It takes manual skill, the ability to work collaboratively, and a commitment to developing expertise in the area where you have the greatest potential. 5) What advice would you give to a young dinosaur enthusiast who dreams of following in your footsteps? How can parents support their children if they are interested in pursuing a career in this field? Maximiliano Iberlucea: Get involved in every activity you can that’s related to paleontology. Visit museums and stay curious. DINOSAURS | EXTINCTIONS | US is more than just an exhibition, it’s a celebration of discovery, curiosity, and humanity’s shared responsibility for our planet’s future. Through the remarkable work of experts like Maximiliano Iberlucea and the groundbreaking research of Museo Paleontológico Egidio Feruglio, visitors in Singapore will have the rare opportunity to witness the wonders of prehistoric life and reflect on what comes next in the story of Earth.

That fantasy is now a reality with the relaunch of Ocean Dreams, the signature, one-of-a-kind overnight experience at the newly reopened Singapore Oceanarium at Resorts World Sentosa (RWS). Featuring upgraded glamping tents, immersive behind-the-scenes access, and a strong focus on conservation, Ocean Dreams invites friends, families, and marine enthusiasts to enjoy an unforgettable school holiday or year-end retreat beneath the ocean. Ocean Dreams will take place over four select weekends between November and December 2025, inviting guests to enjoy a two-day, one-night stay inside the Singapore Oceanarium. Nestled among the stunning marine displays, guests will stay in specially furnished glamping tents. Check-in begins at 4 pm on Day 1, with check-out by 11 am the next morning. Each tent is carefully designed for comfort, featuring air-conditioning, plush bedding, convenient amenities, warm lighting, bedside lamps, charging ports, and a basket filled with snacks and drinks. Families will also enjoy the dedicated children’s corner, complete with storybooks, marine-themed board games, badge-making kits, and colouring sheets to keep little ones entertained. Two tent types are available: Signature Tent: accommodates up to 4 guests at S$1,800 per tent. Deluxe Tent: accommodates up to 8 guests at S$3,800 per tent, with a 270° view of the Open Ocean Habitat, private lounge, kids’ activity corner and hot beverage station. Guests who book the Deluxe Tent will also be able to embark on a private tour of the oceanarium. Mastercard holders enjoy 10% off their booking. The experience isn’t just about where you sleep, it’s about what you see and learn. Guests will embark on exclusive guided tours (front-of-house and behind-the-scenes), including zones like Ancient Waters and Singapore’s Coast. Support areas such as the Aquarist Lab, Feed Preparation Room and Coral Fragment Room are also accessible offering the rare chance to peek behind the curtain of marine operations. Up-close animal encounters such as manta ray feeding session deepen the connection to ocean life. Dining is covered too: a gourmet dinner buffet, a late-night snack basket, and a hearty breakfast all within the immersive aquatic environment. Staying in a glamping tent beside the vast Open Ocean Habitat is nothing short of magical. As daylight fades and the crowds depart, the marine world takes on a quiet intensity: jellyfish drift like lanterns, sharks begin their slow patrols and rays drift effortlessly through deep blue. Setting up camp here feels more like entering a story than a staycation. The behind-the-scenes tours provide a rare window into the workings of the oceanarium. Whether it’s learning that over 1,500 kg of food is prepared weekly for marine animals or seeing how coral fragments are carefully propagated, the educational element elevates the experience beyond a sleep-over into something meaningful. The children’s activity station, personalised take-home goodies (eye mask, socks, enamel pin, printed photograph) and family-friendly touches make it accessible and memorable for all ages. To see more photos and videos of our stay at Ocean Dreams, please head over to our Instagram at this LINK. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and the glamping setup strikes the perfect balance between comfort and novelty. Every moment feels fully immersive, from observing the marine life outside our tent to taking part in the educational behind-the-scenes tour. Seeing the aquarists at work and witnessing the manta ray feeding up close added a fascinating, hands-on element that deepened our appreciation for ocean conservation. With limited slots available (10 Signature tents and 1 Deluxe tent per session) and specialised content, booking early is highly recommended to secure this unique experience. For anyone seeking a memorable staycation in Singapore, one that blends immersive marine encounters, hands-on learning and an overnight stay in a truly unique setting Ocean Dreams at the Singapore Oceanarium delivers. It’s more than a sleep-over; it’s an adventure beneath the sea, thoughtfully designed for families, friends and curious travellers alike. Spaces are limited and the next available weekends will sell out fast.

The Asia premiere is happening at Sands Theatre, Marina Bay Sands from 9 to 26 October 2025, and it’s a luminous, family-friendly spectacle that reimagines Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland through jaw-dropping circus craft, inventive design, and infectious theatricality. Created by Tim Lawson and Simon Painter, and brought to life by an international creative team, this production blends athleticism, puppetry, music, and comedy into one wonderfully immersive experience, a dazzling journey that transports audiences straight into the heart of Wonderland. From the first beat, Cirque Alice grabs you with joyful confidence. The production honors Carroll’s imaginative spirit while crafting its own theatrical vocabulary: acrobatics that read like poetry, puppetry that lends characters emotional weight, and comedic beats that land with genuine warmth. Performance & PhysicalityThe cast is uniformly world-class. Aerialists execute hair-raising transitions with ease; contortionists shape moments of uncanny beauty; and ensemble choreography keeps energy high and playful. Every physical feat feels purposeful not just a display of athleticism but a way of telling a story through motion. Staging & ImmersionSands Theatre has been transformed into a living Wonderland. Clever staging and the option of ring VIP/on-stage seating bring the action close enough to feel personal. Costume and set design are exuberant without ever feeling cluttered; projections, lighting, and sound create a tactile atmosphere that shifts from mischievous to tender with seamless agility. Music & SoundscapeThe show’s soundtrack reimagines familiar classical motifs through modern arrangements that lift emotional beats without overwhelming the stage. Music and movement are tightly integrated, creating moments that are as moving as they are thrilling. Character & HumorBeloved characters are present in spirit and in performance, the Mad Hatter’s comic energy delights audiences, while other figures (from regal to mischievous) become anchors for the show’s emotional arcs. The humor is family-friendly and genuinely funny, landing for both kids and adults. Pacing & AppealAt about 115 minutes with an intermission, the show’s pace keeps things fresh and varied. High-octane set-pieces sit alongside quieter, reflective moments, making for an experience that both dazzles and invites your heart to follow along. It’s a perfect pick for families, date nights, theatre lovers, and casual visitors looking for unforgettable entertainment. Cirque Alice is a rare kind of show: spectacular in scale yet intimate in feeling. It celebrates human skill, theatrical imagination, and the simple, contagious joy of play. If you’re looking for a show that will make you gasp, laugh, and leave with a smile, this is a can’t miss experience. With limited seating from 9–26 October 2025 and premium ring experiences that sell out quickly, be sure to book your tickets through Marina Bay Sands, SISTIC, or Klook and fall down the rabbit hole into Wonderland.

Over the years, the restaurant group has garnered prestigious accolades, such as the Epicurean Star Award for Best of the Best Chain Restaurant and a coveted Michelin Star. From its humble beginnings 25 years ago as a 25-seater coffeeshop on Kitchener Road, this homegrown brand has blossomed into an award-winning international restaurant group, cherished by diners around the world. To commemorate its 25th anniversary, PUTIEN is celebrating not just its milestones, but also sharing the joy with its diners – the reason behind its growth and success throughout these years. From 1 to 15 October 2025, PUTIEN launches a special promotion, with Triple Rewards for all diners. From Humble Beginnings to Culinary LegacyPUTIEN was the vision of Uncle Fong, who arrived in Singapore from Putian, China, with his family. Longing for the flavours of his hometown, he searched the island for authentic Putian cuisine but came up empty-handed. Determined to bring those tastes to Singapore, he opened PUTIEN in 2000, a modest 25-seater coffeeshop on Kitchener Road with the goal of sharing Putian cuisine and becoming a leading Chinese restaurant operator worldwide. A Commitment to Freshness and QualityRefusing to compromise on standards, Uncle Fong personally visited the Jurong seafood wholesale market every night to select the freshest seafood, even if it meant higher costs. His dedication paid off: PUTIEN quickly gained a reputation for top-quality seafood, and suppliers began reserving their finest catches specifically for him. Winning Hearts, One Ingredient at a TimeOver time, these same suppliers became loyal patrons, confident they would enjoy the same exceptional quality they provided. Uncle Fong’s steadfast insistence on fresh, high-quality ingredients earned him the nickname “Well-loved Restaurant Owner. ” His commitment to the principle of “Quality Ingredients, Original Taste” has driven PUTIEN’s growth over the past 19 years, earning numerous awards and establishing the brand as a regional culinary leader. L-R: Seasonal Duotou Clam, Seasonal Loquat Apart from applying various cooking techniques in its kitchens to bring out the original taste in Fujian cuisine, PUTIEN also places importance in using quality ingredients to bring out the best flavours. PUTIEN brings in seasonal raw ingredients and fruits direct from Putian, Fujian, when they are at their freshest, which is a testament to its food philosophy. Through seasonal campaigns, guests at PUTIEN will experience a variety of food and fruits from Putian, four seasons a year. Over these 25 years, PUTIEN has also expanded islandwide from its Singapore origin at Kitchener Road, as well as to markets in Indonesia (2006), Malaysia (2012), Hong Kong (2014), Shanghai (2015), Taipei, Beijing, Guangzhou (2016–17). Along the way, PUTIEN has been recognised with Michelin stars and Bib Gourmand accolades, while consistently delivering authentic Fujian flavours. Triple Rewards on PUTIEN’s 25th Anniversary (1 to 15 October 2025) For PUTIEN, this 25th Anniversary is both a look back at its achievements and a celebration of its loyal community of diners who made the journey possible. PUTIEN commemorates its 25th year with Triple Rewards for all diners: 1. First Reward ○ Free 1 bottle of Spice Mum Chilli Sauce per table 2. Second Reward ○ Spin & Win 25% OFF Selected Signature Dishes 3.

Trusted by dermatologists for over 75 years, Cetaphil® proudly introduces Healthy Renew – its latest breakthrough innovation in sensitive skincare. This thoughtfully designed trio of products ushers in a new era of preventive anti-aging, specially formulated for sensitive skin and those starting their pre-aging journey. As the skincare conversation evolves, so does the way we define aging. Today’s consumers especially Millennials and Gen Z are focusing on prevention rather than correction, with #preaging and #earlyskincare trending across social feeds. While retinol is popular for tackling signs of aging, its side effects, such as dryness, redness, and irritation, can make it unsuitable for sensitive skin. That is where the Healthy Renew range comes in. Meet the Guardians of Youthful Skin: The Healthy Renew Range. Backed by dermatological science and enriched with gentle, effective ingredients, the Cetaphil® Healthy Renew range features three targeted products that deliver visible results without irritation in just 2 weeks: Each product is fragrance-free, non-comedogenic, and clinically tested on sensitive skin to ensure the highest level of safety and efficacy. Why Sensitive Skin Needs Special Anti-Aging Care Most people associate aging with wrinkles, but the real story begins much earlier. Studies show that sensitive skin is more vulnerable to environmental aggressors like UV exposure, pollution, and even stress factors that can accelerate aging faster than we think. And while traditional retinoids can deliver powerful anti-aging results, they often cause irritation, redness, and flaking especially for those with sensitivity. The solution? A retinol alternative that does not compromise on results or comfort. Powered by Science. Inspired by Nature. Made for You. The Healthy Renew range is formulated with a unique blend of Purified Peptides, Botanical Extracts, and Essential Vitamins, delivering gentle yet powerful renewal to the skin. Purified Peptides Peptides are naturally occurring chains of amino acids that act as messengers to the skin, triggering the production of collagen and elastin — the very fibers that give skin its bounce and firmness. The peptides in Healthy Renew are purified for precision and stability, offering targeted anti-aging benefits while being gentle enough for sensitive skin. Edelweiss Extract Known as the “flower of eternal youth”, edelweiss is a resilient Alpine bloom that survives in the harshest climates. It’s packed with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds that help protect skin from free radical damage while soothing irritation. Rice Lees Extract A beauty secret rooted in Japanese tradition, rice lees — the nutrient-rich by-product of sake fermentation — contain amino acids, antioxidants, and B vitamins that brighten, hydrate, and smooth the skin, improving tone and texture naturally. Vitamins B3 (Niacinamide) & B5 (Panthenol) These skin-replenishing vitamins work to restore moisture, reduce redness, and strengthen the skin’s natural barrier, making them ideal allies for sensitive, aging-prone skin. “Purified peptides are particularly effective for individuals with sensitive skin who are beginning their pre-ageing routine. They stimulate collagen production to improve firmness and elasticity, while remaining gentle and well-tolerated compared to traditional retinol. When combined with soothing botanical extracts such as edelweiss and rice lees, they help deliver visible improvements in skin texture, suppleness and radiance, without compromising the skin barrier,” says Dr Kong Yan Ling, certified dermatologist (MBBS Singapore, PG Dip UK, FAMS Dermatology). Together, these carefully selected ingredients form the foundation of the Cetaphil® Healthy Renew range, delivering gentle yet powerful pre-ageing care for sensitive skin. AVAILABILITY AND PROMOTION The new Cetaphil® Healthy Renew range is available at Guardian, Watsons and Unity, as well as official e-stores on Shopee and Lazada. To celebrate the launch, the range will be available at an introductory 25% off across all offline and online retailers. --- - Published: 2025-10-04 - Modified: 2025-10-05 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/ayam-brand-celebrates-superkids-with-first-ever-ayam-superkids-carnival/ - Categories: PARENTING/EDUCATION - Tags: Ayam Brand™ Ayam Brand™, a trusted name in quality and convenience across Asia, is bringing fun, food, and family together with the launch of The Ayam Superkids Carnival, happening from 6 to 12 October 2025 at Waterway Point Village Square, Level 1 atrium. Well-timed to celebrate the end of the Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE), the carnival is a rewarding experience designed especially for children – with interactive games, delicious food sampling, photobooth keepsakes, and exclusive merchandise. FREE Sardines for PSLE Students As a special treat, every Primary 6 pupil can redeem a FREE can of Ayam Brand™ Sardines in Tomato Sauce (155g) by simply presenting their student card or PSLE examination slip. Redemption runs daily from 10am to 10pm, while stocks last. “The Ayam Superkids Carnival is our way of giving children – especially those completing their PSLE – a moment to celebrate their hard work, while creating joyful family experiences,” said Mr. Norman Delouis, General Manager, Ayam Brand™ Singapore. Superfood for Superkids For over a century, Ayam Brand™ Sardines have been a trusted staple in Singapore households, and today they are especially relevant for growing children. Rich in Omega-3 fatty acids that support brain development and cognitive function, sardines are the perfect boost for growing children — from their early years through school and beyond. Each can is also packed with protein for tissue building and growth, calcium for stronger bones and teeth, and Vitamin D to maintain a healthy immune system – ensuring children have the energy and nutrition they require. With no preservatives, no added MSG, and no added trans fats, Ayam Brand™ continues its legacy of delivering wholesome, natural, and high-quality nutrition that families can trust across generations. Carnival Highlights Sardine Taco Food Sampling Children can discover sardines in a brand-new way with Ayam Brand’s specially created sardine taco. The taco features mashed sardines enlivened with a squeeze of lime, layered with crisp lettuce, sweet corn kernels, creamy Thousand Island dressing, and a generous sprinkle of melted cheese – all wrapped in a lightly toasted shell. It’s a savoury, tangy, and satisfying bite designed to delight young taste buds while showcasing sardines as a versatile superfood. Booth Games & Activities The Ayam Superkids Carnival features three engaging activity stations where children can play, learn, and win. By completing all three, they can redeem an exclusive Sardine Taco Plushie – a fun memento of the day inspired by the event’s signature snack. Highlights of the games include: Sardine Cans Super Stack Children are given a stack of empty Ayam Brand™ sardine cans and invited to build the tallest tower they can within one minute, using only one hand. By stacking up to 10 cans, kids take on a fun challenge that hones their balance, coordination and determination in a hands-on way, while engaging with Ayam Brand’s most iconic product. Sardine Memory Match This interactive digital game invites kids to tap and match sardine-themed images — including taco ingredients such as sardines, tomatoes, lettuce, tacos and corn. With 60 seconds on the clock, the activity sharpens memory and attention skills while immersing children in Ayam Brand’s world through vibrant touch-screen visuals. Build Your Super Shapes Children will work with a giant 1m x 1m tangram to recreate picture puzzles featuring Ayam Brand™-inspired images — including one chicken and two fish designs. With two minutes on the floor for the challenge, the activity encourages creativity, problem-solving, and spatial recognition in a fun, interactive way. Photobooth Fun Families can round off their carnival experience with a stop at the Superkids Photobooth. Open daily from 5pm to 9pm, the booth offers a chance for families to capture bright, joyful memories — perfect for keepsakes and sharing with loved ones.

Amidst the chaos, self-care can easily take a backseat. But here’s the truth: caring for your skin isn’t just about looking good, it’s about feeling good, too. Healthy, radiant skin can boost your confidence and give you that extra glow to power through your busy days. So, let’s explore some practical beauty tips designed for parents who are short on time but want big results. 1. Simplify Your Skincare Routine When you’re juggling parenting duties, a 10-step skincare routine just isn’t realistic. Focus on the essentials: cleanse, moisturise, and protect. Cleanse: Use a gentle cleanser to remove dirt and impurities without stripping your skin of its natural oils. Moisturise: Hydration is key! Opt for a lightweight, non-greasy moisturiser that suits your skin type. Protect: Never skip sunscreen, even on cloudy days. A broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher will shield your skin from harmful UV rays and prevent premature aging. 2. Multitasking Beauty Products Save time with products that do double duty. Look for a tinted moisturiser with SPF, a lip-and-cheek stain, or a BB cream that hydrates while providing light coverage. These products streamline your routine while keeping you looking fresh and polished. 3. Hydrate Inside and Out Healthy skin starts from within. Drinking enough water is one of the simplest yet most effective ways to maintain a glowing complexion. Keep a water bottle handy throughout the day, and incorporate hydrating foods like cucumbers, watermelon, and oranges into your diet. 4. Sleep—Your Skin’s Best Friend We know, sleep can feel like a luxury when you’re a parent. But quality rest is crucial for skin repair and regeneration. Try to carve out 7-8 hours of sleep each night, and consider using a silk pillowcase to reduce friction and prevent wrinkles. 5. DIY Beauty Treatments Pamper yourself at home with quick, natural remedies. For example: Honey Mask: Honey is a natural humectant that locks in moisture. Apply a thin layer to your face, leave it on for 10-15 minutes, and rinse off for soft, glowing skin. Coffee Scrub: Mix coffee grounds with coconut oil for an exfoliating scrub that boosts circulation and leaves your skin smooth. 6. Embrace the Power of Minimalism Sometimes, less is more. Instead of piling on makeup, focus on enhancing your natural features. A swipe of mascara, a touch of blush, and a tinted lip balm can work wonders in under five minutes. 7. Self-Care Isn’t Selfish Remember, taking care of yourself isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. When you feel good, you’re better equipped to care for your family. So, whether it’s a 10-minute skincare routine or a relaxing face mask after the kids are in bed, make time for you. Parenting is a beautiful journey, but it’s important to remember that you deserve to feel beautiful, too. By incorporating these simple beauty tips into your routine, you can achieve radiant skin without sacrificing precious time with your little ones. After all, a happy, confident parent is the best role model a child could have. Stay glowing, parents! --- - Published: 2025-09-26 - Modified: 2025-09-26 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/pan-pacific-singapore-welcomes-chef-edden-yap-as-executive-chinese-chef-at-hai-tien-lo/ - Categories: DINING - Tags: #HaiTienLoSG, #PanPacificSingapore, #ShareYourMoments, Chef Edden Yap, Executive Chinese Chef, Hai Tien Lo, Pan Pacific Singapore Pan Pacific Singapore is delighted to welcome Chef Edden Yap as the new Executive Chinese Chef at its award-winning Cantonese restaurant, Hai Tien Lo. Hailing from Jinjang in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Chef Edden brings over 30 years of culinary expertise, with a remarkable career journey that spans from humble hawker stalls to key roles in renowned Chinese restaurants worldwide. His impressive portfolio includes stints at DIVA in W Macau, Jin Kai Lou at Kempinski Hotel Nanjing, Lotus Palace at The Parisian Macao, and Zheng He’s at Madinat Jumeirah. Chef Edden’s culinary journey began at the age of 15 years old, working in hawker stalls and waiting tables, before apprenticing under Hong Kong master chef Zhang Qiang. Under Chef Zhang’s guidance, he honed a mastery of traditional Cantonese techniques, including precise fish-cutting and the delicate art of steaming premium ingredients such as dried abalone and shark’s fin. By his early twenties, Chef Edden expanded his culinary horizons in Dubai, joining Jumeirah Beach Hotel to gain experience in the international dining scene and large-scale buffet operations. He then advanced to the role of Assistant Chinese Chef at the acclaimed Zheng He’s in Madinat Jumeirah, further cementing his expertise in fine Chinese cuisine. Chef Edden’s career next led him to Macau, where he played a pivotal role in the success of several award-winning Chinese restaurants. At Lotus Palace in The Parisian Macao, he contributed to the restaurant earning a one-diamond rating in Meituan’s 2019 Black Pearl Restaurant Guide, while at DIVA in W Macau, his culinary leadership helped secure a spot on the South China Morning Post’s 2024 100 Top Tables for Best Cuisine. In his role at Hai Tien Lo, Chef Edden aims to honour his deep roots in traditional Cantonese cuisine while pushing boundaries with refined modern interpretations. His culinary philosophy centres on hands-on research and development, exploring wet markets first-hand and taking inspiration from acclaimed chefs in Hong Kong and China. Drawing from fond memories of home-cooked meals from his childhood, he infuses that same warmth and comfort into his dishes today. Chef Edden shares, “I cook with the taste of home, so that guests feel a sense of comfort and connection each time they return. ” His signature creations, such as Deep-fried Ibérico Pork Spareribs in Creamy Sauce, topped with Shredded Lime and Stewed Japanese Rice Vermicelli with Pan-fried Lobster Meat and Scallop, in house-made Sour Tomato Broth reflect his bold creativity. Meanwhile, beloved classics, such as Braised South African Fresh Abalone and Sea Cucumber stuffed with Shrimp Paste, in Oyster Abalone Sauce and Double-boiled Dendrobium Chicken Soup with Fish Maw, Dried Scallops, and Sea Whelk remain staples on the Hai Tien Lo menu. With a commitment to sustainability, freshness, and innovation, Chef Edden and his Culinary Team at Hai Tien Lo prepare house-made fish stock and hand-crafted dim sum daily, butcher meats in house rather than relying on pre-cut meats, and creatively use excess vegetables and meat trimmings for sauces and marinades. Hai Tien Lo also champions local sourcing by featuring ingredients, such as locally farmed Soon Hock (Marble Goby) on its menu. Working alongside Assistant Chinese Chef Yong Foh Shin, Dim Sum Chef Ho Kam Fai, and Restaurant Manager Frankie Lean, Chef Edden strives to elevate Hai Tien Lo’s standing as a homegrown Singapore icon, reimagining the dining experience for guests with innovative dishes that stay true to authentic Cantonese flavours.

Organised by MINDS in partnership with Singapore Film Society (SFS), this year's festival features two films – ‘The Manor (山莊日記)’ from Hong Kong and ‘Paper Bag Plan’ from the United States – inviting audiences to experience life through the eyes of persons with intellectual disability. Now in its eighth edition, MFF 2025 continues to harness the power of film to shift perspectives and foster empathy. By bringing the festival to the heartlands this year, MFF 2025 aims to connect with communities and individuals who value meaningful storytelling, are socially conscious and committed to fostering a more inclusive society. The festival will open with a by-invite only screening on 26 September at Temasek Shophouse, followed by free public screenings at five locations across Singapore. “The MINDS Film Festival is more than just a celebration of film; it’s a celebration of humanity. These stories help us see the humour, hope and resilience of persons with intellectual disability. More importantly, they remind us of the importance of inclusion and the part we play in enabling that,” said Mr Kelvin Koh, Chief Executive Officer of MINDS. “I hope MFF 2025, which will be heading to the heartlands and community this year, will bring fresh perspectives, challenge perceptions, and spark conversations to raise greater understanding, empathy and foster greater inclusion for persons with intellectual disability within the communities. ” Two Films, Two Cultures, One Shared Humanity This year's film selections invite audiences on a powerful and transformative journey that spotlights the resilience and strengths of individuals with intellectual disability. Told through unique and deeply human stories, the films celebrate the spirit of perseverance, revealing how individuals overcome life’s challenges and redefine what it means to live with purpose. These narratives not only showcase the richness of diverse lived experiences but also invite viewers to reflect on their perceptions of ability, independence, and potential. The Manor (山莊日記) explores the complexities of caregiving, ageing and identity through the lens of individuals with special needs living in a residential care facility. Set against the quiet rhythms of daily life in the Manor, the film offers an intimate, often moving portrayal of its residents – highlighting their hopes, challenges and the human connections that sustain them. Mr Au Cheuk Man, Director of The Manor (山莊日記), shared his vision, “My goal is to not seek sympathy, but to call for equal recognition and respect. I hope audiences will engage deeply with the film and see that individuals with disabilities are capable of delivering compelling, emotionally resonant performances. Above all, I want to inspire those within the special needs community and their families, to embrace their potential and pursue the opportunities that await them. ” In Paper Bag Plan, we follow the heartfelt journey of Oscar, who, after a cancer diagnosis, comes to realise that his overprotectiveness may be hindering his son Billy’s path to independence. Determined to secure a future for his son, Oscar helps Billy prepare for a job as a grocery store bagger. Their journey is one of mutual growth and courage – revealing the emotional complexities of letting go, the challenges of fostering self-reliance, and deep bond between a father and his son. “I hope to lift the curtain and show people what it is like to have a child with a disability. It's important for everyone to understand the realities of this experience, not just for the families involved, but for society as a whole,” said Mr Anthony Lucero, Director of The Paper Bag Plan. Beyond the Screen: Pop-Ups and Conversations MFF 2025 seeks to deepen public understanding and highlight the vital role of community in cultivating empathy, connection, and a shared sense of belonging. Attendees can look forward to a thoughtful lineup of activities at select screening venues, including pop-up booths by MINDS social enterprises, and interactive quizzes centred around the festival's theme. Mr Kenneth Tan, Chairman of Singapore Film Society, shared, “Film has the power to transform how we see the world – and each other. We are honoured to continue our partnership with MINDS to tell these vital stories and inspire greater understanding, compassion and action within our communities. ” Tickets & Information Admission is free, all are welcome!

Spanning more than 23,000 square feet across two floors, the new facility underscores the brand’s ambition to shape and elevate the whiskey distilling scene in Singapore. Founded in 2015 as Rachelle The Rabbit Meadery, the company began as Singapore’s first licensed meadery before growing into a regional trailblazer under the Compendium Spirits portfolio. Now, with a rebrand under the unified name Rachelle The Rabbit Distillery, the brand fully embraces its roots, creative energy, and Southeast Asian spirit. Over the decade, it has pioneered a bold portfolio that includes whiskey, gin, liqueur, and coconut soju, each crafted with rare regional ingredients such as coconut, honey, and rice reimagining traditional distilling through a Southeast Asian lens. A New Chapter: Expansion, Rebrand, and Innovation The new standalone facility at 6 Chin Bee Crescent is Singapore’s largest distillery, spanning more than 23,000 square feet. It houses a full-scale distillation floor, bottling line, and maturation warehouse for barrel ageing. This state-of-the-art space enhances production capacity, supports research and development, and creates a foundation for future visitor experiences and regional collaborations. At the core of Rachelle The Rabbit Distillery’s ethos is its commitment to independence and quality with every step, from sourcing and fermentation to distillation, bottling, and labelling, carried out fully in-house. Its spirits stand as a modern homage to Southeast Asia’s rich cultural and botanical heritage, offering both a reimagination of taste and a reframing of cultural perspective. Marking the rebrand is Coju Bunnies, a playful identity for its Coconut Soju series. Inspired by local desserts like Bandung and Ondeh Ondeh, and fronted by a cheeky bunny mascot, Coju Bunnies was created to connect with a younger, fun-loving audience while showcasing coconut as a tropical Southeast Asian ingredient. Each bottle blends approachability with meticulous craftsmanship, celebrating both quality and culture. In line with its dedication to mastery, the distillery also welcomes Kenji Hariu as Production Consultant. A veteran of Japanese whiskey, Hariu brings experience from iconic names like Karuizawa Distillery and Fuji Gotemba. His expertise will guide Rachelle The Rabbit Distillery in refining fermentation, distillation, ageing, and quality control within Singapore’s tropical climate. Looking forward, the distillery will begin releasing its private casks, laid down since 2021, allowing whiskey enthusiasts and collectors the opportunity to own a piece of Singapore’s whiskey-making legacy. To celebrate this milestone, we spoke with Simon Zhao, Founder & Master Distiller of Rachelle The Rabbit Distillery, as he reflects on the past decade, shares insights into the rebrand, and reveals his vision for the future. interview with Simon Zhao, Founder & Master Distiller of Rachelle The Rabbit Distillery 1. Congratulations on the 10th anniversary of Rachelle The Rabbit Distillery! Looking back over this incredible journey from a meadery to Singapore’s largest distillery, what would you say has been the single most defining moment for you? Simon Zhao: Thank you! Looking back, the most defining moment for me was not a particluar event, but the realisation that our spirit of curiosity and creativity could truly shape something bigger than ourselves. From our early days as a meadery to today, crafting rice-based whiskeys and playful spirits like Coju (Coconut Soju), one thing has remained constant – our desire to bottle the culture and flavours of Singapore and Southeast Asia. Every product we create is a way of sharing the richness of this region, through the ingredients we use, the stories we tell, and the communities we celebrate. That moment of clarity that we do not just distill spirits, we distill a sense of place continues to define who we are at Rachelle The Rabbit Distillery. 2. The rebrand from Compendium Spirits to Rachelle The Rabbit Distillery is both creative and strategic. What personal meaning does “Rachelle the Rabbit” carry for you, and how does it shape the brand’s personality and values? Simon Zhao: The rebrand from Compendium Spirits to Rachelle The Rabbit Distillery marks beyond just our 10-year journey, but the evolution of our identity and product range. Rachelle the Rabbit – named after my daughter, embodies curiosity, playfulness and adventure, guiding us as we explore and celebrate Southeast Asian ingredients. She is more than a muse; she shapes our personality and values, reminding us to approach every creation with wonder and joy. Through this refreshed identity, we continue to invite people into a reimagined world of flavour that celebrates our roots and our spirit of discovery. 3. Relocating to your new 23,000-square-feet facility at 6 Chin Bee Crescent is a major milestone. What new opportunities or capabilities does this home give you that were previously out of reach? Simon Zhao: Moving into our new 23,000-square-foot facility at 6 Chin Bee Crescent is a major milestone for us. It gives us the space and capabilities to significantly expand our production, especially for our rice whiskeys and malt whiskeys, while continuing to innovate with playful spirits like Coju. Beyond production, it allows us to create immersive experiences for visitors in future, collaborate closely with partners and explore new opportunities regionally. 4. You’ve brought on Japanese whiskey expert Kenji Hariu as Production Consultant. How do you see his experience influencing your whiskey-making process in Singapore’s tropical climate? Simon Zhao: We are thrilled to have Kenji Hariu on board as our Production Consultant. His expertise in Japanese whiskey craftsmanship brings invaluable precision and depth to our process, while also inspiring us to adapt traditional techniques to Singapore’s tropical climate. With Kenji’s guidance, we are exploring how temperature, humidity and local ingredients can shape unique flavour profiles for our rice and malt whiskeys. His experience helps us strike a balance between respecting classic methods and innovating for our regional context, elevating both the quality and character of our spirits. 5. Your spirits incorporate Southeast Asian ingredients such as coconut,... --- - Published: 2025-09-19 - Modified: 2025-09-19 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/5-beauty-essentials-busy-parent-needs-for-everyday-confidence/ - Categories: PARENTING/EDUCATION, STYLE/BEAUTY Parenting is a full-time role with no pause button. Between school runs, office meetings, and family commitments, it’s easy for self-care to slip to the bottom of the list. Yet, taking a few minutes each day to look and feel refreshed can make a world of difference not just for confidence, but also for energy and mindset. The good news? Beauty routines don’t have to be complicated or time-consuming. Here are five simple, parent-friendly beauty essentials that are gentle, practical, and perfect for life on the go. 1. A Gentle Daily Cleanser A mild, non-stripping cleanser is every parent’s best friend. After long days outdoors with the kids or late nights catching up on work, a cleanser that removes dirt and refreshes the skin without harsh chemicals is a must. Choose one that suits sensitive skin so that even if your little one brushes against your face, you won’t have to worry about irritation. 2. Sun Protection That Travels Easily Living in sunny Singapore means sun protection isn’t optional, it’s essential. Instead of heavy creams that take time to blend, opt for a lightweight sunscreen or a handy sun stick. These are fuss-free, mess-free, and easy enough to apply while waiting for the school bus. A few swipes are all it takes to keep your skin protected on the go. 3. A Multi-Tasking Tint Parents rarely have time for a full face of makeup. That’s why a tint that works for both lips and cheeks is a game-changer. One product can instantly bring colour and life to your face, making you look fresh even after a night of broken sleep. Best of all, it can be applied in seconds without the need for brushes or extra tools. 4. An Eye Reviver for Tired Days Late-night feeds, bedtime negotiations, or catching up on work often mean tired eyes. An eye product with a cooling effect whether it’s in roll-on or gel form can help de-puff and brighten in the morning. This small step can instantly make you look more awake and refreshed, even on the busiest mornings. 5. A Quick Hair Refresher Some mornings just don’t allow for a full shampoo routine. A dry hair mist or powder is perfect for busy days when you still want your hair to look clean and styled. Go for one that absorbs oil without leaving residue and has a light scent that won’t overwhelm sensitive noses around you. Bonus Tip: Keep It Compact When packing your bag for the day, choose travel-friendly or pocket-sized versions of your essentials. A small pouch with just the basics can live in your handbag or diaper bag, always ready for a quick refresh whenever you need it. Parenting is all about balance and that includes balancing your family’s needs with your own. A simple beauty routine doesn’t just help you look refreshed; it’s also a reminder that your well-being matters, too. With the right essentials, you can face each day with confidence, even on the busiest mornings. --- - Published: 2025-09-18 - Modified: 2025-09-18 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/take-a-creative-pause-unwind-raffles-place-returns-with-a-twist/ - Categories: EVENTS - Tags: Business Improvement District (BID) programme, Jungle Cruise, Raffles Place, Raffles Place Alliance (RPA), UNWIND @ Raffles Place, Urban Redevelopment Authority Established in 2019 under the Urban Redevelopment Authority’s pilot Business Improvement District (BID) programme, Raffles Place Alliance (RPA) is a collective of stakeholders committed to reimagining Singapore’s premier business district.

With cardiovascular disease still among the nation’s top causes of death, the combination of busy schedules, high stress, and dietary challenges has made heart health a concern not just for older adults but for younger Singaporeans too. The Science Behind LAC Activated® Heart Protect™ With that in mind, LAC (pronounced L‑A‑C), Leader in Antioxidative Control™, supports this national movement by offering a convenient, lifestyle-friendly way to promote daily heart health. Taking inspiration from natto, the Japanese superfood long associated with vitality and longevity, LAC harnesses the power of nattokinase, a naturally occurring enzyme recognised globally for supporting healthy blood flow and overall heart wellness. Building on this, LAC Activated® Heart Protect™ combines nattokinase, hawthorn, and lecithin in a holistic formula designed to support circulation, cholesterol balance, and blood vessel health offering a practical daily step toward long-term cardiovascular wellbeing. Nattokinase A natural enzyme derived from natto, nattokinase helps break down fibrin, a protein involved in blood clot formation, promoting smoother blood flow. Studies suggest it may also support healthy blood pressure and overall circulation. Hawthorn Rich in antioxidants such as flavonoids and polyphenols, hawthorn has been studied for improving cholesterol profiles, supporting vascular function, and promoting heart health. Lecithin Lecithin contains phospholipids that aid healthy fat metabolism, helping reduce LDL (“bad”) cholesterol and maintain flexibility in blood vessels, contributing to overall cardiovascular wellness. To shed light on practical steps we can take, we spoke with Ms Koh Lian Xi, Consultant Nutritionist at LAC Global Singapore who shares her professional insights on how diet, lifestyle, and LAC’s latest innovation, LAC Activated® Heart Protect™can help strengthen daily cardiovascular wellness. Insights from Ms Koh Lian Xi, Consultant Nutritionist at LAC Global Singapore Q1. How the formula can help to support our daily heart health Miss Koh: Unbalanced diets that are high in sugar, fats and sodium as well as lifestyle factors such as stress, smoking, and lack of physical activity can gradually damage blood vessels and contribute to heart diseases. When blood vessels become stiff or blocked, the flow of blood, oxygen and nutrients is restricted, so do the removal of toxin and waste products, raising the risk of cardiovascular problems. Managing these risks usually means consciously adopting healthier lifestyle choices and, in some cases, adding extra support. LAC Activated® Heart Protect™ was developed with an East-meets-West approach, combining traditional wellness knowledge with science-backed ingredients to strengthen cardiovascular health. The formula contains three key components: nattokinase, hawthorn, and lecithin, and each plays a role in cardiovascular health: ● Nattokinase – a natural enzyme found in natto, shown to help break down fibrin, the protein involved in blood clot formation. By supporting smoother blood flow, it may also help with blood pressure management. ● Hawthorn – a plant long valued for its heart-supporting properties. Rich in antioxidants, it reduces cholesterol production in the liver, hence improving cholesterol balance. ● Lecithin – a natural source of phospholipids that assists the body in emulsifying and metabolising fats more efficiently. This can contribute to balanced cholesterol levels and help blood vessels remain flexible. By targeting circulation, cholesterol, and blood vessel health, such formulations can offer daily support for long-term cardiovascular wellbeing. Q2. How can we keep our heart healthy? Miss Koh: Heart health starts with daily choices. Staying physically active, eating a balanced diet, managing stress, and going for regular check-ups all play a role in keeping blood pressure and cholesterol at healthy levels. These habits also help maintain good circulation and reduce strain on the cardiovascular system. Alongside lifestyle measures, supplements can provide an additional layer of support. Those designed to promote circulation, cholesterol balance, and blood vessel strength may help reinforce the body’s natural defenses and contribute to overall vitality. When taken consistently as part of a broader healthy lifestyle, they can be a simple, proactive way to support the heart over time. Heart Health in Singapore: Why It Matters With cardiovascular disease responsible for nearly one in three deaths locally and increasingly affecting younger adults, preventive care is more crucial than ever. While diet, exercise, and medical screenings remain the foundation of heart health, a carefully formulated supplement like LAC Activated® Heart Protect™ can complement these efforts especially when lifestyle adjustments alone may be challenging. This World Heart Day, the message is clear: resilient hearts are built through consistent choices, supported by knowledge, lifestyle habits, and smart nutritional solutions. LAC Activated® Heart Protect™ offers a practical, evidence-backed approach to cardiovascular wellness, combining traditional ingredients with modern science. Consistency is key. By pairing heart-friendly foods, regular activity, stress management, and good supplementation, each of us can take meaningful steps toward a healthier heart and a stronger, heart-resilient Singapore.

With screen time and homework starting at younger ages, parents are increasingly searching for tools that can support both learning and well-being. The BenQ MindDuo 2, the latest addition to BenQ’s eye-care lighting series, is designed precisely for this purpose: to create an optimal study space where children can read, learn, and grow comfortably. Features and Design At first glance, the MindDuo 2 looks sleek and modern, with a thoughtful design that blends seamlessly into any study area. Beyond aesthetics, it’s engineered for function and safety. Key features include: Smart Dimming Modes: Paper mode and Screen mode adjust brightness automatically depending on whether your child is reading or using a device. Eye-Care Technology: Flicker-free and low blue light, plus a 30-minute break reminder to encourage healthy study habits. Wide Illumination Range: 95 cm coverage, ideal for parent-child reading sessions or shared desks. Glare-Free Protection: The light source is shielded to prevent direct exposure and reduce harsh reflections. Smart Sensors: Ambient light sensor and presence detection allow the lamp to adjust automatically to the environment. BenQ MindDuo 2 Kids Study Lamp - Review After setting up the BenQ MindDuo 2, the first impression we had was how premium and purposeful the design felt. Unlike many desk lamps that simply provide light, this one appears engineered with children’s study habits in mind. The build feels solid, the controls are intuitive, and the adjustable arm moves smoothly during adjustment. One of the most impressive aspects in daily use is the smart dimming and colour modes. When we switched between reading a printed book and then using a laptop, we used the Paper-Reading Mode (warmer ~4000K) and Screen-Reading Mode (cooler ~5700K). The lamp responded with changes in warmth and colour that seemed gentle and we did not notice distracting flicker during those changes, consistent with its flicker-free certification. The illumination range also stands out: the official spec confirms a 95 cm “ultra-wide” oval illumination at up to 500 lux (measured at ~40 cm). In our experience with both a notebook and a laptop on the desk, the workspace felt well lit with fewer dark edges than in many lamps we’ve used. The eye-care features gave us real peace of mind. Knowing the lamp is certified for flicker-free performance, complies with RG0 blue light safety, and has a high CRI (Ra ≥ 95) increased our confidence in using it for extended study sessions. The built-in 30-minute break reminder is a nice touch, gently nudging for rest without needing constant oversight. Another thoughtful design detail is the glare-reduction. The light source is concealed, and the lamp head reflects light via diffusers and reflectors, so even from angled viewpoints the glare is minimal in my setup. Overall, using the MindDuo 2 feels like more than just switching on a lamp, it feels like a well-designed companion for study time. It supports focus, encourages healthier study habits, and makes reading or working more comfortable for long stretches. The BenQ MindDuo 2 Kids Study Lamp combines thoughtful design, advanced technology, and wellness features to create a superior study environment. It enhances focus, protects young eyes, and encourages healthy study habits from an early age. For families looking to invest in a child-friendly study setup, the MindDuo 2 isn’t just a lamp, it’s a long-term partner in learning and well-being. From design to functionality, it excels in every aspect, making it a must-have for modern households.

Launching on 13 September 2025, the show invites visitors to step into radical visions of the future through art, design, cinema, architecture, and literature. A Collaborative Vision of Tomorrow Co-curated by ArtScience Museum and BAFTA-nominated producer, designer and director Liam Young, the exhibition highlights the transformative power of worldbuilding. It imagines alternative ways of living and thinking, offering not just escape but a hopeful reorientation toward resilience, creativity, and collective responsibility. Supported by DesignSingapore Council as a signature highlight of Singapore Design Week 2025, the exhibition arrives at a timely moment. In a world where popular culture often leans toward dystopian narratives, Another World Is Possible dares to suggest otherwise a brighter, more balanced future grounded in long-term vision, environmental pragmatism, and community. At its heart, the exhibition unfolds across seven thematic chapters, each serving as a portal into different modes of speculative futures. Together, they weave a vibrant and emotionally resonant journey of over 100 works contributed by more than 40 artists, designers, architects, writers, and filmmakers. Notable contributors include global names such as Björk, Andrew Thomas Huang, Osheen Siva, Ken Liu, Serwah Attafuah, Shiro Fujioka, and Osborne Macharia, alongside prominent Singapore-based creatives including Debbie Ding, Ming Wong, Ong Kian Peng, Youths in Balaclava, WOHA, Jason Pomeroy, and Finbarr Fallon. From immersive installations to visionary architecture, these works draw inspiration from Indigenous, Afrofuturist, and Asian perspectives, offering layered visions of futures that are inclusive and generous. Importantly, 16 locally based contributors explore how technology, culture, and ecology can be harmonized, ensuring the stories resonate with Singapore’s own evolving identity. Another World Is Possible is presented in collaboration with ACMI in Melbourne, Australia and continues conversations from ACMI’s earlier exhibition, The Future & Other Fictions (2024–2025). While ACMI’s version focused on how speculative worlds were imagined on screens, ArtScience Museum expands this inquiry to embrace architecture, design, literature, and collective creativity. Highlights: A chapter-by-chapter walk-through Chapter 1 — We Are Authors of the End This opening gallery asks visitors to track how cinema and television have taught us to expect dark, familiar dystopias: rain-slick neon cities, surveillance, ecological collapse. The chapter uses montage and historic reference to show how that visual language narrows our imagination and asks us to set those inherited images down before attempting new worlds. The chapter includes new commissions that reframe endings as beginnings. Chapter 2 — Imagination Echoes Through Us All Moving from screen to page and object, this chapter explores speculative fiction as a plural, cross-media practice. Works draw on Indigenous and regional knowledge to imagine futures grounded in different cultural logics; the gallery includes projects that rework ritual, music and craft as engines of new worlds. Chapter 3 — It Begins with Freedom A focus on Afrofuturism and Black speculative worlds follows: the chapter foregrounds artists who place African diasporic experience and cosmology at the centre of futurity. Photography, film and costume combine to imagine technologically adept futures that remain rooted in history, ceremony and creative sovereignty. Chapter 4 — Silk, Spice, a Punk Paradise Here the exhibition turns explicitly to Asia and Southeast Asia, introducing silkpunk, spicepunk and islandpunk speculative strands that retell the future through local myth, maritime history and material culture. The works in this space propose regionally specific technological imaginaries and hybrid traditions, suggesting futures built from both craft and collective memory. Chapter 5 — From Console to Cosmos This chapter examines videogames, interactive experiences and play as laboratories of worldbuilding. Playable projects and game-inspired installations put visitors in the position of co-creators: agency, choice and systems thinking become ways to rehearse alternative social and ecological outcomes. Chapter 6 — A World Becoming Designers, architects and artists here propose large-scale technical and social propositions buoyant farms, weather-shaping ideas, repair-oriented industry and dense biodiverse cities that translate speculative imagination into tangible design directions. This gallery balances plausible technological scenarios with the social and political choices that would make them possible. Chapter 7 — This Future Island City The finale is an explicit conversation with Singapore’s civic project: how long-term planning, environmental pragmatism and collective action have helped shape a distinct “island city” futurism. Architects and studios whose work imagines nature and infrastructure in closer dialogue contribute to this final argument: futures are built together, and place matters. Another World Is Possible is more than an exhibition, it is a call to imagine differently, to see beyond inherited stories of fear, to embrace futures that are multiple, equitable, and shaped by many hands. Whether you are drawn by art, architecture, literature, design, or just curious about what comes next, this exhibition suggests that the future isn’t fixed, it’s something to be built, shared, and envisioned. Another World Is Possible Dates: 13 September 2025 – 22 February 2026 Location: ArtScience Museum, Marina Bay Sands. Admission for Singapore residents: Adult from S$18, concession from S$15. For tourists: Adult from S$20, concession from S$16. Opening hours: Sun–Thu 10 am to 7 pm (last entry 6 pm); Fri–Sat 10 am to 9 pm (last entry 8:15 pm).

The collaboration not only offers light-hearted entertainment but also sparks meaningful conversations around financial planning, resilience, and the pursuit of dreams in Singapore. The Singaporean Dream: Income 55th Anniversary Limited Edition card game - Image by Income Insurance. This exclusive edition infuses gameplay with financial planning elements and real-life events such as travel disruptions, health scares, and car accidents reminding players of the importance of insurance and preparedness in navigating life’s uncertainties. More than a game, this initiative serves as a unique platform to highlight the importance of protection and financial literacy, particularly in today’s challenging economic landscape. To mark the launch, we spoke with three individuals closely connected to the project: Dhiren Amin, Chief Customer Officer at Income Insurance; Theresa Syn, founder of SYNT Studio and creator of The Singaporean Dream and Mdm Tay Meilan, third-generation owner of Soon Soon Huat Curry Puff. Each offered their own perspectives on financial planning, resilience, and the evolving meaning of the Singaporean Dream. Dhiren Amin, Chief Customer Officer, Income Insurance 1. What are some of the most common misconceptions Singaporeans have about financial planning? “I’ll look into insurance later when I’m more settled” - many people believe that financial planning can wait – but life doesn’t wait; unfortunate circumstances can happen any time. Starting early means being protected before health issues arise, and letting your savings grow through compounding. “I have insurance, I am covered” - Insurance is often misunderstood as a checkbox. Having insurance does not mean one is adequately covered; there may still be protection gaps. A critical illness, disability, or unexpected accident can derail plans and dreams. Hence, regular reviews with a financial consultant are important; it isn’t just about numbers, it about having peace of mind knowing that you are sufficiently covered. “CPF will take care of my retirement. ” - Thirdly, some may perceive CPF savings on its own as being enough for retirement. With rising costs and longer lifespans, relying solely on CPF may mean compromising the retirement lifestyle you’ve dreamed of. The amount of money saved today may not be sufficient to maintain the retirement lifestyle you desire in the years to come. 2. Why is it important to plan ahead for ourselves and our families in today’s context? Research has shown that it costs $4. 4 million to achieve the conventional Singaporean Dream – which have been traditionally known as 5Cs in Singapore – cash, car, credit card, condominium, and country club. While the Singapore Dream may take different shapes and forms, proper financial planning helps ensure those dreams don’t vanish or get derailed when life throws curveballs. Considering the context of rising costs of living, inflation, and an uncertain global economy, early financial planning is crucial for Singaporeans, especially Gen Zs and millennials. They are becoming caregivers, homeowners, and parents. These roles come with financial responsibility. Insurance, investments, and emergency funds are the safety nets that catch us when life gets unpredictable. Planning early helps them support ageing parents, raise children, and build a resilient future without being overwhelmed by debt. 3. How can parents kickstart conversations with children about seemingly complex topics like financial planning? Make financial planning real and relatable - Starting children young can help cultivate good habits such as setting simple money goals, which can grow over time. Parents can kickstart financial conversations by linking money topics to real-life situations —like budgeting for a family trip, explaining how CPF works when buying a home, or showing how insurance helped with a lost luggage claim—these are teachable moments that make money talk meaningful. Make it fun and engaging - As part of Income Insurance 55th anniversary, we teamed up with the creators of The Singaporean Dream, the popular satirical card game that humorously reflects everyday Singaporean experiences and aspirations, to come up with a limited-edition version that creatively includes financial planning elements into the game play. The new gameplay is a cheeky twist that mirrors real-life trade-offs and challenges as it incorporates life events such as travel disruptions, health scares, and car accidents, demonstrating how insurance and financial protection support individuals and families through life’s uncertainties. Starting from 1 September 2025 till the end of the year, members of the public can explore the game at all 12 Income Insurance branches and lite branches at Fairprice, where pop-up play zones will be set up. These sessions offer an opportunity for the public to engage with the game and learn how financial planning can support their aspirations. Theresa Syn, Founder of SYNT Studio 4. What inspired you to start SYNT Studio? Back in 2018, there were many card games in the market, but most of the popular ones were international titles. We saw a potential to create a Singaporean-themed card game, with local characters and references that reflect our identity and shared experience. This came to life with The Singaporean Dream, and through that, we saw the interest and appetite for more local games where Singaporeans were able to connect with and see themselves represented in an authentic way. Thus was the start of our studio, and since then, we’ve created more games and worked with different partners to bring to life more experiences/events that bring Singaporeans together. As a proud Singaporean, it is great to be able to contribute and showcase our unique culture and quirks with the rest of the world. 5. How do you see games like The Singaporean Dream contributing to Singaporeans’ conversations around family, money, and planning for the future? The concept of The Singaporean Dream pokes fun at the ‘traditional’ Singaporean narrative of success, and different milestones that many of us grew up feeling the need to achieve. Through playing the game, we hope players have fun, and also reflect if these... --- - Published: 2025-09-08 - Modified: 2025-09-08 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/vietjet-offers-up-to-99-off-singapore-vietnam-flights-this-9-9-plus-free-20kg-baggage/ - Categories: STAYCATION/TRAVEL - Tags: Vietjet Celebrate Double Day 9/9 with Vietjet’s special promotion, offering Singapore travellers direct flights to Phu Quoc, Da Nang, Hanoi, and Ho Chi Minh City.

The new outlet blends rich Singaporean classics with exciting additions such as handcrafted Peranakan kuehs, artisanal coffee, and a seafood-focused menu launching in phases from July offering an experience designed for both international visitors and local diners. The Chatterbox Legacy Chatterbox first launched in 1971 rose to fame with its Mandarin Chicken Rice, widely regarded as one of the best in Singapore to this day. Chatterbox’s long-standing history is a testament to its dedication to perfecting the essence of local favourites in a city where trends ebb and flow daily and its latest outpost, Chatterbox Café will embody that vision and mission distinctly. At its new home in Resorts World Sentosa, at Weave, the restaurant will continue to honour its legacy evolving for a new generation of diners, offering more options and delving into a cafe-inspired dessert menu. You'd be curious to know more about Chatterbox's addition of Café to its name! It’s simply a playful nod to distinguish from its flagship, Chatterbox, at Hilton Singapore Orchard. Be delighted to know that the overall dining experience remains just as exceptional, with a space thoughtfully designed for leisure dining. A Reimagined Local Experience The new Chatterbox Café pays tribute to traditional tastes while embracing modern sensibilities. Diners can look forward to signature favourites such as the Mandarin Chicken Rice, now available at an exclusive price of S$23++. In a special nod to its Resorts World Sentosa debut, select classic dishes are being offered at specially reduced prices—available only at this location. True to its name, Chatterbox Café is where conversations flow as effortlessly as the culinary experience unfolds. In honour of its name, Chatterbox Café, it was only apt. In this iteration, a nostalgic Peranakan Kueh and a curated coffee and tea menu takes centre-stage for that tea-time indulgence. Celebrating Singapore’s rich heritage flavours, a curated selection of Peranakan Kuehs such as Sago Bandung and Sarang Semut makes an appearance. Crafted daily in-store with cherished recipes handed down through generations, the Peranakan Kuehs are love letters to Singapore and form a distinctive portion of the menu.

It’s here to provide a modern platform for global diners to experience the best of our Singaporean flavours, reimagined. In a way, it pays tribute to Singapore’s melting pot culture. Perhaps what makes Singapore’s dining culture truly extraordinary is its constant reinvention. The island’s dishes didn’t remain frozen in time; they adapted to local tastes, incorporated regional ingredients, and, over generations, formed hybrid dishes or fusion as we’ve come to know them as, long before it was a trend. Chatterbox Café is here to reimagine, invigorate, and honour heritage recipes for the global dinner, Singaporeans, and tourists alike. Designed For Discovery The space itself reflects Chatterbox’s philosophy of modern tradition, where sleek and contemporary interiors layered with warm, tropical tones create a welcoming atmosphere that speaks to both locals and tourists. With indoor and al fresco seating, it is a destination fit for everything from leisurely weekend brunches to family feasts and special occasions. Pet owners, rejoice, as Chatterbox Café’s outdoor dining area is pet-friendly too! Soak in nature, at the outdoor terrace or escape to air-conditioned comfort post-sightseeing.

From 6 to 20 September 2025, the Oceanarium is marking World Manta Day with a specially curated programme, Animal Spotlight: Manta Rays, alongside a host of manta-inspired activities for all ages. A Spotlight on Gentle Giants At the heart of the celebration is the Animal Spotlight: Manta Rays programme, an immersive 45-minute English-guided tour that takes participants behind the scenes of manta ray care and conservation. Limited to just 12 guests per session, the programme offers an intimate encounter with these fascinating creatures. Visitors will discover how aquarists carefully monitor the health, diet, and behaviours of the Oceanarium’s three resident male reef manta rays consist of Manja, Mako, and Mika, who have been under professional care for more than a decade. Despite their enormous size, these manta rays feed on microscopic zooplankton, consuming around 4–5kg of krill daily. Each ray is also recognised by the unique spot pattern on its belly, much like human fingerprints. Participants will learn about the mantas’ high cognitive abilities, including their ability to respond to visual cues during training, and gain insights into the conservation challenges these species face in the wild. Led by an experienced education guide, the session encourages questions and discussion, fostering a deeper appreciation of the role manta rays play in the marine ecosystem. To make the experience even more memorable, each participant receives a manta ray plush keychain and an Animal Spotlight lanyard set as keepsakes of their journey.

The Singapore Oceanarium highlights simple yet impactful actions everyone can take to protect manta rays and the oceans they call home: Avoid purchasing manta ray products such as their gill plates. Choose products free from microplastics. Support sustainably sourced seafood with labels like the MSC logo. Practice responsible tourism by keeping a safe distance from wild animals and keeping marine environments clean. A New Chapter for Singapore’s Marine Story The Oceanarium itself is a wonder to behold. Reopened in mid-2025 after an extensive transformation from the former S. E. A. Aquarium, it now boasts 22 immersive zones, one of the world’s largest Open Ocean habitats, and a cutting-edge Research & Learning Centre powered by renewable energy. This makes it not just a place for discovery but also a hub for marine science, education, and sustainability. The Animal Spotlight: Manta Rays programme is more than just an attraction, it’s an invitation to step closer to the ocean’s mysteries. By celebrating World Manta Day within the awe-inspiring Singapore Oceanarium, visitors leave not only with unforgettable memories but also with a renewed sense of responsibility toward protecting the seas.

The partnership highlights the nation’s rich cultural heritage not only within FEH’s hotels, but also across the city as part of the ongoing SG60 celebrations throughout 2025. This initiative underscores FEH’s commitment to offering Singapore-inspired hospitality, where each precinct is designed to be a place of stories, not merely a place to stay. A thoughtfully and specially curated three-part series of experiential heritage trails will lead guests through three iconic precincts: Orchard, the Central Business District (CBD), and Sentosa. Each trail is anchored by an FEH property within the area, providing a guided exploration of the lesser-known stories, sights, and cultural layers that shape each precinct. Together, they create an experience that highlights how every stay can be just as meaningful and memorable as the city itself. “As a Singaporean brand with over two decades of history, we’re grateful to have grown alongside the nation. Part of our commitment to offering Singapore-inspired hospitality is also working with local creators such as The Urbanist to amplify riveting knowledge and insights about our beloved city. We hope that this guided experience helps guests and Singaporeans connect more meaningfully with the communities around us, and enjoy Singapore’s culture and heritage beyond the guidebooks,” shared Audrey Chung, Senior Vice President, Commercial, Far East Hospitality. “I'm excited for the chance to take people beyond what they think they know about Singapore. From Orchard Road's nutmeg beginnings to Telok Ayer's immigrant stories and Sentosa's military past, each unique trail is a doorway into the city’s hidden layers: stories tucked behind familiar streets, quiet traces of the past woven into the everyday. I hope guests walk away not just entertained, but with a deeper sense of connection to the places they’ve seen, and a new curiosity to keep exploring long after the trail ends,” shared Yong, The Urbanist. After months of preparation, the team is delighted to present these specially chosen precincts selected not only for their appeal to tourists and guests, but also for their cultural richness and capacity to surprise.

Guided by the loveable Fantastic Feline Four, children will meet other remarkable companions, unlock reward milestones, master skills and collect treasures through hands-on, story-driven lessons. With every adventure, they build musical confidence – learning through play, discovery and a sense of purpose that inspires pride with every achievement. The fun and learning are all captured in Aureus Interactive™ Storybooks, which are packed with engaging activities designed to develop essential skills at every musical grade. Tailored to each student’s proficiency, every Grade features five unique adventures brought to life across ten enchanting Storybooks, seamlessly blending storytelling, musical exploration, and skill-building into one unforgettable experience. Redefining music learning with the First and Only method of its kind Powered by the proprietary CORE VI™ Method, Aureus Interactive offers the most complete framework for musical mastery, and stands as the first and only approach to break music learning down into six essential skills: Sight, Sound, Strength, Sensitivity, Synchronicity, and Storytelling. These core skills are fully integrated into every Storybook, forming the foundation of a structured, immersive, and skill-based progression designed for students to develop and achieve complete musical literacy and mastery. The CORE VI™ Method ensures that as students progress through each Storybook and Adventure, they are simultaneously developing the skills required to read, understand, create, and perform music with confidence and artistry. To recognise and celebrate each child’s musical progress, Aureus Interactive Grades offers learners a globally recognised Certification pathway. Students complete each Grade by tackling 20 Skill Challenges, designed to develop and assess a broad range of musical abilities, including sight reading, aural comprehension, technical skills, and improvisation. They also submit 5 Recorded Songs, assessed through a comprehensive 200-point marking rubric. For every Grade achieved, students receive a Trophy, a Letter of Recommendation, and a Certificate, endorsed and jointly awarded by the prestigious Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama. Based on their total score, students can achieve Pass, Merit, Distinction, or High Distinction. In addition to Aureus Interactive’s certification pathway, children also receive special Aureus Interactive Treasures™ to celebrate their achievements – from digital Songstones and Skill Badges to unlocking and redeeming collectible figurines of iconic characters in the Aureus Interactive Universe. These exclusive treasures are unlocked through the completion of key learning milestones, serving as meaningful markers of progress, keeping motivation high and making progress even more exciting, turning every achievement into fun moments to celebrate. With over 100 original and reimagined songs spanning genres such as Classical, Pop, Rock, Electronic, Latin, Jazz, Musical Theatre, and more, Aureus Interactive™ Music brings every adventure to life through sound. Across Grades 1 to 5, students learn and perform these songs as part of their musical journey, applying the skills they have developed through each Storybook and Adventure. From sweeping orchestral pieces recorded by the London Symphony Orchestra and Grammy award-winning conductor Andrew Litton at the iconic Abbey Road Studios, to toe-tapping contemporary tunes recorded at Nashville’s legendary Blackbird Studios, each soundtrack is crafted to spark imagination and elevate musical expression. These world-class compositions aren’t just background music, rather they are an essential part of the learning journey, helping students apply and reinforce the musical skills they have developed, while transforming each lesson into a rich auditory and immersive experience. An Immersive Studio Experience, powered by Technology Lessons are conducted in brand-new Aureus Interactive™ Studios, where the Aureus Interactive Universe, Storybooks and Music converge to bring an infinitely immersive learning experience. Powered by vibrant displays, cinematic sound design and interactive technology, these adventures leap off the pages into real-life musical experiences. But the adventure doesn’t stop there - Aureus Progress Portal (A. P. P) powers every in-studio lesson, bringing storytelling, music, cinematics, and rewards to life right in the classroom. This connected ecosystem seamlessly blends the online and offline experience, with teachers using the platform to complement lessons and create a unique learning journey unlike any other. With real-time updates, parents, students and teachers can easily track progress and celebrate achievements, keeping children motivated as they see their growth unfold. Lawrence Holmefjord-Sarabi, Founder & Chief Executive Officer of Aureus Group, shares, “Aureus Interactive was built with one true purpose: to make learning music an adventure that never ends. Alongside a passionate team of over 50 educators, composers, designers, software developers, storytellers, and animators, we have dedicated nearly five years to crafting this immersive and interactive product designed not just to teach music, but to transform how it’s experienced and cherished.

NatureLab. TOKYO proudly introduces the Kiseki Molecular Repair Leave-In Hair Masque to Singapore — a game-changing, no-rinse treatment masque that repairs damaged hair in just four minutes. Unlike conventional hair treatments that merely coat strands for temporary smoothness, Kiseki penetrates deep into the cuticle to repair damage at the molecular level, restoring strength, softness, elasticity, and bounce from the inside out. Lightweight and fast-absorbing, this no-rinse formula harnesses advanced Japanese biotech and plant-powered peptides to deliver salon-grade results at home, redefining the future of intensive hair repair. The name Kiseki (キセキ) translates to“miracle” in Japanese — a reflection of the product’s transformative power. Powered by plant-based ingredients rich in low molecular weight peptides and proteins, Kiseki penetrates deep into the core of each strand to repair, strengthen, and restore vitality. The Science Behind the Miracle Though Kiseki means “miracle”, it is firmly backed by science. Clinically tested, Kiseki Leave-in Masque has been shown toreduce breakage by 56%, reduce frizz by 84%, and reduce split ends by 70%, with 62% of split ends completely closed after use¹. Visible results after 1 use These impressive results are made possible by a proprietary delivery technology that enhances ingredient absorption by 50%, allowing peptides and proteins to penetrate deep into the hair cortex where real repair begins. The formula features low molecular weight repair peptides that are 8 times smaller, allowing for 7 times faster penetration compared to conventional treatments. This technology strengthens, smooths and protects the hair, all without weighing it down. Rooted in the principles of J-Beauty, the Kiseki Leave-in Masque embodies NatureLab. TOKYO’s unique blend of traditional Japanese rituals and advanced molecular science. Featuring Core Absorption Technology, the masque penetrates deeply into the hair cortex to strengthen hair structure. ¹In an independent 3rd party instrumental study compared to untreated hair. The Power of Peptides: Milk Thistle Seed Extract, Nature’s Molecular Healer At the heart of Kiseki is Milk Thistle Seed Extract, a sustainable, vegan alternative to keratin. With a 50-70% peptide concentration and an amino acid profile similar to keratin, this powerhouse ingredient has been used in herbal medicine for over 2,000 years — and now plays a vital role in hair repair. Its low molecular weight peptides penetrate deep into the hair’s core to stabilise and repair keratin structures, strengthening strands, reducing breakage and protecting against UV, pollution and heat damage. Sourced from the upcycled by-product of milk thistle oil production, it reflects NatureLab. TOKYO’s commitment to clean, conscious beauty. Supporting ingredients like pea, rice and soy proteins, upcycled Japanese green tea seed oil and lotus flower extract further fortify, hydrate and protect, leaving hair visibly smoother and more resilient. “We’re excited to launch the Kiseki Masque, a revolutionary product that embodies the essence of J-Beauty,” says Keigo Tiger Hishiya, CEO of NatureLab. TOKYO. “With our innovative molecular repair technology and traditional Japanese ingredients, Kiseki offers effective solutions for all hair types, restoring health and vitality at the core. ” A Sensorial Experience Inspired by Japanese Heritage Kiseki is more than a treatment — it is a ritual. The masque is infused with a fragrance inspired by hinoki wood (Japanese cypress), layered with sacred incense, pressed paper, fresh cypress bark, subtle citrus and woodsy lavender. This gender-neutral scent evokes the serenity of a traditional Kōdō ceremony and the restorative calm of forest bathing, transforming haircare into a mindful, uplifting experience. Like all NatureLab. TOKYO products, Kiseki is formulated without parabens, sulfates, phthalates, silicones and over 1,300 ingredients banned by the EU, ensuring a clean, cruelty-free formula. How to Use the Kiseki Molecular Repair Leave-In Hair Masque Step 1: Wash your hair with a clarifying shampoo PRO TIP: Skip the conditioner for more effective penetration and repair Step 2: Towel-dry to remove excess water Step 3: Apply 2 to 6 pumps of the masque, depending on hair length Work evenly into hair, starting at the ends Step 4: Leave the masque on for 4 minutes. Do not rinse off. Step 5: Dry and style hair as usual (air-dry, blow-dry or heat-style) Usage Recommendation: For best results, use for 4 times consecutively, then once a week for maintenance.

Since the debut of Devasom Hua Hin in 2010 and the opening of Devasom Khao Lak in 2018, the brand has become a beloved destination for discerning travellers from around the world seeking serenity, cultural depth, and heartfelt Thai hospitality. Devasom was founded in 2008 by the prominent Thai Atirak family—Rasri and her two sons Is (Co-Managing Director, Devasom Khao Lak) and Ath (Assistant Managing Director, Devasom Hua Hin). Together, after the loss of a beloved family member to illness, they left the big city to build a vacation house far away from worries and fulfill a family's dream—a sanctuary which became Devasom Hua Hin, a beautiful seaside resort dedicated to joy and serenity. Rooted in the meaning of its name—"deva" (angel) and "ashram" (residence or place of peace) is a belief todeliver more than just a stay, but to offer guests a blissful sense of coming home. Over the past 15 years, the brand has established itself as a benchmark of Thai boutique luxury, known for its architectural grace, thoughtful wellness offerings, and a strong sense of place inspired by Thailand's rich heritage. “At the heart of Devasom is the belief that true hospitality relies on sincerity, serenity, and soul. We don’t aim to impress with extravagance. Elegance is in the meaningful experiences that stay with people long after they leave. Every detail, from design to service, is curated to immerse guests with happiness, a sense of calm and emotional connection. Devasom is not just a hotel. It is a home for our guests, our people, and the memorable moments we offer,” said Rasri Atirak. Complementing Devasom Hua Hin is its sister hotel – Devasom Khao Lak. With its spacious beachfront setting and serene natural surroundings, Devasom Khao Lak has become a wellness-inspired resort offering luxury villas and guest rooms, holistic healing, Michelin Bib Gourmand dining, and curated cultural experiences. A highlight is the annual Devasom Sol Wellness Festival, a transformative multi-day event that brings together renowned practitioners in yoga, sound healing, movement, and mindfulness. First launched to acclaim in 2023, the Devasom Sol Festival will return in April 2026, inviting guests from around the world to reconnect with themselves and nature in a deeply immersive setting. To commemorate the 15th anniversary milestone, Devasom Hua Hin will rebrand its dining experience to launch Pribpri—named after the ancient name of Phetchaburi city—offering an authentic Phetchaburi (a UNESCO gastronomic city) culinary experience featuring some very unique local signature dishes. The restaurant will serve time-honoured recipes that have been passed down through generations, such as Khao Chae Devasom (Royal Thai Summer Rice), Phetchaburi Rose Apple Salad with Dried Squid, Pad Kua Moo Yang (Wok-Seared Grilled Pork Tenderloin with Coconut and Curry Paste), and more. In addition, Devasom Hua Hin will host Luna Circle, an exclusive celebration in September. The intimate beachfront gathering will reflect the brand’s core pillars—serenity, balance, and soulful reconnection—through immersive experiences in wellness with Yin Yoga, meditation, mindfulness tea journey, Thai swing dance entertainment, and authentic Phetchaburi cuisine. Signature mindful wellbeing experiences at Devasom Hua Hin will also be available throughout the years, and guests and day visitors will be able to enjoy curated wellness and mindfulness activities guided by experienced practitioners: Year-Round Wellness Offerings: ● Sunrise Yoga (Beachfront): Sundays at 07:00 ● Mindfulness Yoga: Tuesdays and Thursdays at 16:00 ● Himalayan Sound Bath Healing: Saturdays at 16:30 ● Private Sessions Available: Including Breathwork & Meditation under the stars, Sand Mandala mindfulness, and a Tea Journey experience Classes are open to outside guests and prices start from THB 1,500, while some classes are complimentary for in-house guests.

Celebrated for its award-winning breads and refined craftsmanship, Wu Pao Chun at Holland Village welcomes both longtime fans and first-time visitors to discover the artisanal excellence behind every bake. The opening marks a strategic move for the brand and brings Wu Pao Chun's world-class creations to a location that caters to a diverse base of international visitors and local residents. With its blend of cosmopolitan energy and diverse community, the vibrant enclave of Holland Village makes it an excellent location for Wu Pao Chun's artisanal offerings. This milestone opening is also a continued tribute to the vision of founder and Master Baker Wu Pao Chun (吴宝春), whose guiding philosophy, "Exploring Bread, a way of seeing the world" (我喜欢，以面包阅读世界), finds fresh expression in this dynamic new setting. THE FIRST-EVER ASIAN WHO WON CHAMPION Master Baker Wu Pao Chun's exceptional skill and innovative approach to bread-making has garnered international recognition. Notably, his mastery of traditional techniques combined with creative vision earned him the championship at the 2010 Masters de la Boulangerie, where he became the first-ever Asian World Bread Masters individual champion. In 2016, Wu Pao Chun was honoured as World Baker of the Year by the Union of International Bakers and Confectioners (UIBC). Wu Pao Chun's approach extends beyond conventional baking. To deepen his understanding of bread, he studied cooking, art, music, wine tasting, and microbiology to perfect fermentation techniques. This comprehensive methodology has shaped his distinctive style and the exceptional quality of his creations. THE LEGENDARY CHAMPION BREAD The bakery's two champion breads continue to showcase Master Wu Pao Chun’s innovative spirit that earned him international acclaim 12 Months to perfect the recipe, 15 Hours of dough rising and 3 Nights of soaking in lychee wine. The Lychee Rose Royale 荔枝玫瑰 ($24. 80) took home the 2010 Masters de la Boulangerie championship with its aromatic loaf that weaves together the sweetness of wine-soaked lychee, the pleasing crunch of roasted walnuts, and the elegant floral notes of dried rose petals. Each Red Wine Longan 酒酿桂圆 ($24. 80) is a work of art and stands as Wu Pao Chun’s first globally-recognised bread, debuting at the 2008 Louis Lesaffre Cup. Infused with red wine-soaked longan and walnuts, the dough is gently smoked over six days to impart extraordinary depth and complexity. Nicknamed the ‘time-travelling bread’, it encapsulates Wu Pao Chun’s dedication to heritage, patience, and flavour in every bite. FRESH BAKES ON THE BLOCK At Holland Village, Wu Pao Chun's philosophy also comes alive through exciting new creations. L - R: Cranberry Flaxseed, Smokey Cheese Sausage The Cranberry Flaxseed 蔓越莓亚麻籽 ($5. 20) marries earthy flaxseed with bursts of tart cranberry, creating a hearty loaf with satisfying textural contrast. Meanwhile, the Smokey Cheese Sausage 腌熏芝士香肠 ($3. 60) encases perfectly seasoned pork sausage within buttery pastry, crowned with melted smoked cheddar. Sweet indulgences include the Cottony Macaron 泡芙马卡龙 ($5), a uniquely Taiwanese take on the classic that melts effortlessly on the tongue, and the Cloud Cake 云朵蛋糕 ($15) – an aptly named confection with airy sponge brightened by delicate longan honey.

As the clock creeps toward the dreaded 13th hour, guests will be drawn into the mind-warping dread of The Unruly Immortals, created in collaboration with Chinese culture and entertainment group Yuewen, and face the wrath of an evil, restless spirit in Death Whisperer, a blood-curdling homage to the dark supernatural traditions of Thai horror cinema. Fans who missed out on the early bird deal can now purchase regular tickets online and prepare for an encounter with terror like never before. Enter The Mind-Bending World Of The Unruly Immortals PHOTO CREDIT: RESORTS WORLD SENTOSA The eerie parallel dimensions from the hit Chinese novel The Unruly Immortals will be brought to life in a haunted house for the first time at Universal Studios Singapore Halloween Horror Nights 13. Marking its first collaboration with a Chinese novel intellectual property, Universal Studios Singapore will transform this dark fantasy tale into reality. Guests will follow high school student Li Huowang as he navigates two conflicting realities — a bizarre cultivation world where ancient rituals transform him into living medicine, and a hospital ward where doctors deny the supernatural and insist his visions are mere hallucinations. The haunted house blurs the lines between sanity and madness, challenging guests to question what is real as they journey through twisted hospital wards, ancient alchemy chambers, and nightmarish temples in the protagonist’s desperate search for a cure. The Unruly Immortals is one of China’s most popular online novels, amassing over 11. 3 million subscribers across Yuwen’s online literature platforms. Foxtail Pen, author of The Unruly Immortals, said: “I’m honored that The Unruly Immortals is the first Chinese literary intellectual property to be featured at Universal Studios Singapore. Turning words into a real-life experience has been a magical journey. I hope visitors from around the world enjoy this one of-a-kind adventure where fantasy and reality come together — and have a great time in the haunted house. ” Come Face To Face With The Black Spirit In Death Whisperer Based on Thailand’s highest-grossing film in a decade, Death Whisperer, the haunted house will take guests deep into rural Kanchanaburi, Thailand in 1972, where a once tranquil village was shattered by a curse. Adapted from a true story, the vengeful Black Spirit is in search of a new host, her quest for revenge brutally tearing apart a family. The haunted house recreates the first two films’ most bone rattling moments, from swamps and wheatfields to the witch's twisted hut, immersing guests in a relentless atmosphere of dread. The experience is the perfect opportunity for guests to test their courage as the horror continues with Death Whisperer 3 premiering worldwide from 1 October. “It wouldn’t be Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Singapore without Asian horror and we want to delve into guests’ fears and superstitions from this region. Our partnership with Yuewen brings one of China’s most popular dark fantasy stories to life, while Death Whisperer taps into the cinematic power of Thai horror,” said Markham Gannon, Senior Director of Entertainment at Resorts World Sentosa. “This year’s experiences will not only scare – they will immerse, provoke and haunt long after guests exit the final room. ” Mr. Surachedh Assawaruenganun, Chief Executive Officer of M STUDIO, distributor of Death Whisperer, stated: “We are deeply honoured that Resorts World Sentosa Singapore and Universal Studios Singapore – renowned global leaders in entertainment – have selected Death Whisperer as the inspiration for Halloween Horror Nights 13. This marks the first time a Thai film has been featured in such a world-class attraction, underscoring the universal appeal of our culturally rooted vision of fear. We hope this collaboration paves the way for more opportunities where Thai cinema can captivate global audiences and harness the power of film as a tool of soft power and cultural influence. ” Face The Horrors Of The 13th Hour Guests can look forward to the line-up of experiences at Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights 13: Haunted Houses • Netflix’s Stranger Things • Singapore’s Most Haunted: Build to Horror • The Unruly Immortals • Death Whisperer Scare Zones • The FEARground, presented by Fanta • The Realm of Yokai Live Shows • Dare or Die Live! • Once Upon a Time... to Die Fans should stay tuned for the reveal of more experiences, coming soon.

R. R. Tolkien's legendary world like never before. The Lord of the Rings – A Musical Tale is now playing at the Sands Theatre, Marina Bay Sands, from now to 31 August 2025. This highly anticipated Asia premiere brings the epic story of Middle-earth to life with a captivating blend of live music, immersive staging, and unparalleled artistry. Bringing Middle-earth to Life Produced by Kevin Wallace Productions and Middle-earth Enterprises (MEE), The Lord of the Rings – A Musical Tale features a star-studded cast of actor-musicians, each bringing the beloved characters to life through a unique combination of acting and live music. Rarmian Newton takes on the role of Frodo Baggins, with Wern Mak as Samwise Gamgee, Laurence Boxhall portraying the haunting Gollum, and Terence Crawford embodying the wise Gandalf. Adding to the magic is Jemma Rix, who plays the ethereal Galadriel, a familiar favourite to Singapore audiences for her past performances as Elphaba in WICKED and Elsa in Disney’s Frozen The Musical. This musical is unlike any other, as the performers not only act but also play over 20 instruments live on stage, creating an immersive experience that draws the audience deep into Tolkien's rich world. With stunning musical compositions by Academy Award-winning A. R. Rahman, Finnish folk band Värttinä, and Tony Award-winning Christopher Nightingale, the score beautifully captures the essence of Middle-earth while pushing the boundaries of live performance. The story follows the Hobbits’ journey to destroy the One Ring, with unforgettable scenes like Gandalf’s confrontation with the Balrog, the Council of Elrond, and Shelob’s attack on Frodo. These iconic moments are brought to life with remarkable puppetry, intricate fight choreography, and a spellbinding musical score that deepens the emotional resonance of Tolkien's epic tale. A Fresh Interpretation of a Timeless Classic This production presents a fresh take on the classic story, told through the eyes of the Hobbits. The peaceful Shire is where the adventure begins, and the tale unfolds as Bilbo Baggins gifts Frodo the mysterious One Ring. The ensuing quest, filled with peril, friendship, and courage, takes audiences through Middle-earth’s lush forests, towering mountains, and ominous lands, with the fate of the world hanging in the balance. The performers’ versatility in playing multiple roles adds to the dynamic storytelling, with each actor switching between characters, often in quick costume changes. From Strider (Rob Mallett) to Arwen (Stefanie Caccamo), the cast’s dedication to the musical’s immersive experience is unparalleled. The production’s creative staging also breaks the fourth wall, with actors entering and exiting through the audience, making the entire theatre feel like an extension of Middle-earth itself. With authentic use of Tolkien’s invented languages such as Elvish and Dwarvish, the production brings a rich layer of depth to the dialogue and songs, further enhancing the world-building. LEGO® Collaboration: Bringing Middle-earth to Life in Brick Form In addition to the theatrical experience, fans can dive deeper into Middle-earth through an exclusive LEGO® display, created in celebration of the musical’s premiere. The centerpiece is the Expanded 10316 The Lord of the Rings: Rivendell™ set, a breathtaking model designed as a rotating music box, accompanied by a melodic piece from The Lord of the Rings – A Musical Tale. The Rivendell model is complemented by the iconic The Shire™ and Barad-dûr™ LEGO® sets, creating a visual journey through the most beloved locations in Tolkien's world.

Being able to save money means you can spend that money elsewhere or save it for a rainy day, which may come along when you need that money the most. Whether you’re creating a budget to manage your expenses to setting a savings goal, here are five money-saving hacks every parent should know about. Buy in bulk Buying in bulk is a great way to save some money, especially when you find yourself buying the same things every week. There are certain items that you might want to bulk buy in order to save some money. Think toilet roll, nappies for kids and non-perishables that you can pop in your cupboard for use at a later date. Buying some of your weekly household goods in bulk can make a big difference to how much you save over time. It’s also helpful so that should you ever be in an emergency situation, you’ve got plenty of supplies to keep you going if shops are closed or certain products are low in production. Set savings goals Savings goals are something that you certainly want to set when it comes to saving money. Not everyone has the experience of saving money, or may never have done so previously. It’s good to know how to save because you never know what you might need it for in the future. An emergency fund is also useful to have to help save you in situations where you need money fast. Setting savings goals will help towards saving the money that you might need for your next holiday, to cushion the festive blow of shopping for presents, or just help with the weekly food shop. Create a budget Budgeting is helpful to know what you’re spending each week or month. Therefore, setting up a budget helps to track everything going in and out. It can also help you to be more productive with your money so that you’re maximizing your income as much as possible. If you’ve not created a budget before, then simply creating one on a spreadsheet is easy enough to do and is helpful to track everything clearly in front of you. Make use of existing savings funds There are existing savings funds that you might have and want to make use of in order to help keep some outgoing costs low for the time being. It’s useful to know about investing in an RESP for your child’s education, which can then be withdrawn later on to go towards tuition costs, for example. Resp withdrawals can be helpful for those who want to lighten the load and financial impact that can come later on in family life. Earn more money on the side Earning a bit of money on the side is always nice to have, and so it’s worth exploring your skills and talents to see what potential you could achieve when it comes to developing a side hustle. Sometimes, it might be something very niche you offer, and for others, it’s something as easy as offering a handy skill that many homeowners are after in and around their homes. These money-saving hacks are certainly worth knowing about as a parent, both new and for those with older kids heading off to further education. --- - Published: 2025-08-13 - Modified: 2025-08-13 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/what-parents-should-know-about-sleep-challenges-in-early-childhood/ - Categories: PARENTING/EDUCATION Sleep is one of the most important elements of early childhood development, yet it’s also one of the areas where many parents encounter difficulties. From unpredictable schedules to sudden disruptions in established sleep patterns, challenges can arise at different ages and stages. Understanding what’s normal and when action might be needed can make the process less stressful for both parents and children. By learning about the factors that influence sleep and the habits that can encourage better rest, parents can feel more confident in managing these issues. The right approach often combines patience, observation, and small adjustments that gradually lead to more consistent sleep patterns over time. Knowing the right amount of rest It can be tricky for parents to know exactly how much your child needs to sleep at different ages, especially as every child is unique. General guidelines can provide a starting point, but observing a child’s behaviour and energy levels often gives the clearest picture of whether they’re getting enough rest. If a child is consistently irritable, prone to meltdowns, or struggling to concentrate, it may indicate they need more sleep. On the other hand, waking early and being alert throughout the day could suggest they’re already getting the right amount. Building bedtime connections One of the simplest yet most effective ways to prepare a child for rest is by reading bedtime stories. This not only signals that the day is winding down but also provides an opportunity for quiet bonding. The predictability of this shared time can be calming and help children feel secure. Choosing age-appropriate, soothing stories can make a difference in how quickly children settle. A dimly lit, calm environment enhances the effect and can help the body begin to relax naturally before sleep. Understanding common sleep disruptions Parents often wonder, do 3 year olds go through sleep regression, and the answer is yes, it’s possible. Around this age, developmental changes, increased independence, and even imagination-related fears can interrupt previously smooth sleep patterns. A child might start waking more often, resisting bedtime, or struggling to fall asleep despite previously having no issues. While these phases can be frustrating, they’re usually temporary. Supporting children through them with reassurance, a consistent environment, and understanding can make the transition easier. Recognising that it’s part of normal development helps reduce anxiety about the change. Encouraging healthy activity during the day A child’s ability to fall asleep at night often begins with how active they’ve been during the day. Finding ways to help your child burn more energy during the day through outdoor play, active games, or structured activities can lead to smoother bedtimes. Physical activity supports the natural release of energy and can also improve mood. However, overly intense exercise right before bed can sometimes have the opposite effect, so it’s best to schedule active play earlier in the day. Establishing a consistent routine A predictable bedtime routine can significantly improve a child’s ability to settle down and sleep well. This might include quiet play, a warm bath, a story, and then lights out at a consistent time each night. Repetition helps signal to the body and mind that it’s time to rest. Children tend to respond positively to routines because they provide structure and a sense of security. Over time, the body begins to associate these steps with preparing for sleep, making the process smoother. Considering the impact of diet It’s easy to overlook how food affects your child's sleep, but diet can play a significant role in rest quality. Sugary snacks or caffeinated drinks too close to bedtime can make it harder for children to wind down. Offering balanced meals and limiting certain foods in the evening can support more restful nights. Including calming, nutrient-rich foods during dinner may also contribute to better overall sleep quality. Recognising when to make changes If sleep challenges persist despite routine adjustments, it might be time to review the overall sleep environment. Factors like room temperature, lighting, and noise levels can have a surprising effect on sleep quality. Making small changes, such as blackout curtains or a white noise machine, can sometimes resolve lingering issues without major lifestyle changes. Parents should be open to trying different strategies until they find what works best for their child. Supporting children through transitions Many sleep challenges occur during times of change, whether it’s starting preschool, moving to a new home, or welcoming a sibling. These adjustments can temporarily disrupt sleep as children process new experiences. Being patient, keeping routines as consistent as possible, and offering reassurance can help children navigate these changes more smoothly. Over time, most children adapt and return to their previous sleep patterns. Adjusting expectations as children grow Sleep patterns in early childhood aren’t fixed, and what works at one stage may need adjusting later. As children become more independent, naps may shorten or disappear entirely, and bedtimes may need to shift to suit their new routines. Parents can benefit from regularly reassessing sleep schedules to keep them aligned with developmental changes. Flexibility helps prevent unnecessary stress during these transitions. A willingness to experiment with bedtime, nap length, or evening activities can make it easier to adapt when a child’s needs change, while still maintaining an overall structure. Involving children in their own sleep habits Encouraging children to participate in decisions about their sleep routine can make them more likely to follow it. Simple choices, such as selecting a bedtime book or deciding which pyjamas to wear, give them a sense of control while keeping within the boundaries set by parents. This involvement can be particularly useful for children who resist bedtime. When they feel included, they’re often more cooperative, and bedtime becomes less of a struggle and more of a positive, shared experience. Sleep challenges in early childhood are common and often temporary, but they can feel overwhelming without the right strategies. By combining consistent routines, active days, mindful dietary choices, and a calm bedtime environment, parents can help their children achieve better rest and develop healthy sleep habits... --- - Published: 2025-08-13 - Modified: 2025-08-13 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/blippi-is-in-town-join-the-curious-explorer-on-his-adventures-across-singapore-on-mediacorps-platforms/ - Categories: ENTERTAINMENT, PARENTING/EDUCATION - Tags: Blippi, Blippi’s Singapore Adventures, MediaCorp, Mediacorp okto Singapore’s little learners are in for a treat as the beloved global children’s show Blippi launches its first-ever Singapore Edition, Blippi’s Singapore Adventures, produced in collaboration with Mediacorp.

Shaped by ideas and aspirations gathered through a year-long outreach that engaged over 10,000 people, the showcase offers a first look at the evolving vision for the Centre’s next chapter. Located in the Jurong Lake District, the new Science Centre will offer expanded indoor and outdoor spaces that connect science with everyday life through immersive exhibits, nature trails, and community-driven experiences. The Centre will continue to welcome public feedback and explore opportunities to co-create, inviting guests to help shape the future of science education in Singapore. “It has been deeply inspiring to hear from so many members of our community as we look ahead to the new Science Centre and the next chapter for STEM learning in Singapore. The “New Science Centre: Wonderfully Yours” showcase is a testament to the power of co creation and collaboration, and a reflection of what we can achieve when people from all walks of life come together to imagine and shape the future. That is why we remain committed to making science exciting, meaningful and accessible to all,” said Ms Tham Mun See, Chief Executive of the Science Centre Board. A Showcase by the Community, for the Community Located at the main entrance of SCS, guests can view an architectural scale model of the new Science Centre, highlighting how its design optimises its waterfront location at Jurong Lake District. The new Science Centre will feature five interlocking rectangular blocks, with large glass windows at the ends of some blocks that act as ‘monocles’ offering panoramic views of Jurong Lake and Chinese Garden. These blocks will house exhibition galleries, laboratories, and event spaces. Surrounding gardens and courtyards will create new opportunities for more outdoor experiences such as nature encounters, festivals, and stargazing. Guests can immerse themselves in a mirrored ceiling installation, simulating the dramatic reflective surface of the building that will be found at the Activity Plaza, a key placemaking element of the new Science Centre. The Activity Plaza will host a range of new community initiatives open to members of the public. Also on display will be a whimsical art piece designed by local design firm 8EyedSpud featuring familiar Science Centre and Jurong Lake District icons. A vibrant panel in the showcase features public feedback and ideas, capturing the community’s shared aspirations for future experiences — from guided nature walks in the new Science Centre’s lush landscape to sci-fi zones, smart labs, robotics and technology showcases, outdoor bazaars, open-air film screenings, and more. Prototyping the Future with Community Events The showcase is a result of ongoing public engagement including roving exhibitions, community workshops, and design challenges. A strong focus was placed on ground-up innovation by involving community groups and youth, recognising their vital role in shaping the next generation of innovators and thinkers. SCS supported various initiatives, including the National AI Student Challenge 2025 (NAISC), where teams in the Science Centre track had the chance to harness Artificial Intelligence in designing and expressing their proposals for new science-learning experiences as well as for a new children’s mascot. “I enjoyed ideating exciting new exhibits for the new Science Centre,” said Aiden Chong, 14, a Zhenghua Secondary School student who was part of the winning team for NAISC, Science Centre track. “I hope to see more immersive experiences such as a virtual reality lab, where guests can participate in and carry out science experiments. It’s a great way to engage people of all ages through learning that feels interesting and adventurous, and I hope that the Science Centre will consider our ideas. ” Close to 100 students contributed ideas through special programmes such as DesignSingapore Council’s Real World Co-Design Platform 2024 and live-client projects for Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts Bachelor of Arts Design Practice programme, to develop fresh ideas for elevating visitor experience at the new Centre around youth interests and everyday science. Their creative suggestions included interactive displays about sports science, exhibits linking cultural festivals to astronomy, and opportunities to participate in citizen science. In anticipation of the new Centre, SCS has also begun real-world testing of public-submitted ideas in its existing space, including more community events. One example is its participation in PARK(ing) Day Singapore 2024, a global annual event where communities transform parking lots into community spaces. Together with Bold At Work – a platform that prepares young people for the future of work, carparks at SCS were reimagined as interactive science zones, offering a range of activities exploring ideas around well-being, sustainability, and playful learning – from sensory installations to escape room puzzles. The activation drew over 500 members of the public, with many expressing their enjoyment and strong interest in seeing similar initiatives integrated into the new Centre’s programming. Another prototype in progress is STEM Fiesta’s “Kampung Lab”, a community-run maker market showcasing youth innovation. It features over 18 young makers from NUS Makers’ Alley, and hands-on booths offering STEM-inspired handicrafts ranging from astronomy themed accessories and botanical trinkets to upcycled 3D-printed creations that reflect the voices of Gen Z. In the coming years, guests can look forward to similar initiatives that will offer a glimpse into how community-led events can activate future public spaces in the new Science Centre. “New Science Centre: Wonderfully Yours” is now open for public viewing at SCS and will remain accessible until the new Centre opens. All guests are invited to explore the showcase and contribute their ideas towards building the future of science education in Singapore. Tickets/Bookings for STEM Fiesta are still available.

Recognising this need for skincare that supports moisture retention in both cold indoor environments and hot, humid climates, Kansosan introduces a lineup of gentle yet effective products that help restore and maintain the skin’s moisture balance throughout the day. While Singapore’s climate may feel humid, dry skin remains a common concern, particularly for those who spend extended hours in air-conditioned environments. Kansosan addresses this unique challenge with formulations that hydrate deeply, soothe sensitised skin, and strengthen the skin barrier — offering comfort that lasts all day. Meet Moriko-san: Your New Beauty Bestie in the Fight Against Dry Skin Say hello to Moriko-san, the expressive face of Kansosan and a breakout character in Japan’s beauty scene.

Now making her debut in Singapore, Moriko-san is here to champion everyday women facing the same skin struggles — from hours spent in air-conditioned offices to battling the midday sun. Skincare that works, and a character you cannot help but love. Introducing Kansosan’s Skincare-First Makeup Base Range Rooted in Japanese skincare sensibilities, Kansosan’s makeup base collection is built on the belief that great makeup begins with great skin. In a market filled with high-performance formulas, Kansosan offers a thoughtful alternative — one that puts skin first without compromising on function.

Founded in 2015 by entrepreneur Sophia Chen, the brand has become a staple for modern women who appreciate the blend of timeless design and everyday practicality. Guided by the philosophy of “Strength in Simplicity,” The Sophia Label has built its reputation around bags that are not just accessories, but companions designed to seamlessly accompany women through their workdays, weekends, milestones, and everything in between. These bags are not only crafted for their beauty, but for their utility, making them the ideal choice for women who value both form and function in their accessories. A Legacy of Timeless Design The Sophia Label’s approach to bag design has always been anchored in creating timeless pieces. From the best-selling XL Cosy Luxe Crescent to the versatile Posh Tote, each design is meticulously crafted to ensure that it’s not only stylish, but also practical. These bags have become more than just an accessory; they are functional tools that help women navigate their busy lives with ease and elegance. Sophia Chen’s personal commitment to creating high-quality, thoughtful designs has made The Sophia Label stand out in the competitive world of fashion accessories. With every collection, the brand continues to innovate while remaining true to its roots: creating bags that offer both beauty and practicality. A Moment of Inspiration: The Birth of the Anniversary Collection In the lead-up to the brand’s 10th anniversary, Sophia Chen found inspiration in an unexpected place in a simple, fleeting moment. As she pondered what would make this anniversary collection stand out, she noticed her bag resting against her pant pocket. In that simple moment, she found beauty in the ordinary, which led her to design a brand-new creation as part of the anniversary collection. This moment of insight reflects the brand's core philosophy of finding beauty in the everyday. The Sophia Label’s designs are inspired by the real-life needs and experiences of the women who carry them. Whether it’s the functionality of a pocket or the sleekness of a side profile, each detail is thoughtfully considered, making every piece a true reflection of the brand's commitment to the modern woman. The Anniversary Collection: Innovation Meets Timelessness As part of the 10th-anniversary celebrations, The Sophia Label has unveiled a new collection that embodies the brand’s dedication to both timeless design and innovation. The Anniversary Collection introduces the Signature Pocket Micro Bag (S$28), launching on August 8. This bag is designed as a blind bag experience, where the contents remain a mystery until opened, adding an exciting twist to its charm. Crafted from premium nylon, the same material used in The Sophia Label’s fan-favourite Posh series, the bag is available in five signature shades: Daffodil, Ballet Pink, Truffle, Misty Blue, and Storm. The Signature Pocket Micro Bag features neatly stitched front compartments for quick access to frequently used items, and its main compartment is perfectly sized to fit an iPhone 16 Pro Max along with all your small essentials. Its adjustable drawstring strap, the knotted rope-style straps can be easily adjusted to your preferred length, while the dual-way carry option offers versatility with a padded top handle and a long strap combination allows you to carry the bag by hand or easily sling it over your shoulders. The Sophia Label’s upcoming launches for the 10th Anniversary Collection will be revealed in three exciting drops from August to October 2025, with more to follow into 2026. Looking Forward: A Brand That Continues to Evolve Looking ahead, The Sophia Label is poised for even greater success. Its dedication to the modern woman remains at the heart of everything the brand does. Each new design reflects the ever-evolving needs of women, offering them bags that not only meet their functional needs but also inspire confidence and style. Sophia Chen’s vision for The Sophia Label is clear: to continue creating bags that are a testament to the strength, resilience, and beauty of the women who carry them. As the brand celebrates this milestone, it remains firmly committed to its mission of providing timeless, high-quality accessories that carry women through every chapter of their lives. The Sophia Label’s 10-year journey is a testament to the power of thoughtful design, simplicity, and the beauty of everyday moments.

Yet, the crucial recovery phase remains underserved. Many patients face prolonged healing, discomfort, and confusion about aftercare. This gap in post-treatment recovery is where REVAGI – The Recombinant Serum comes in. Proudly developed in Singapore, it was created to address this clinical need. Already recognised as the #1 recombinant collagen serum trusted by leading plastic surgeons in Singapore, REVAGI bridges the long-standing divide between aesthetic procedures and recovery, empowering doctors, improving patient experience, and accelerating visible outcomes. Why REVAGI Is Different Traditional post-procedure recovery solutions often rely on off-label products, steroids, or generic moisturisers, leaving patients with longer recovery times and higher discomfort. In contrast, REVAGI is based on breakthrough science. Inspired by tissue engineering, particularly cardiovascular medicine, it utilizes recombinant collagen, one of the most advanced biomaterials in regenerative science. Initially developed for 3D bioprinting of heart tissues, recombinant collagen is highly biocompatible and known for its healing properties. At the core of REVAGI is SCIRA™, a proprietary recombinant collagen complex biologically engineered to replicate the most potent segment of human collagen. This cutting-edge formula supports skin recovery, reduces inflammation, and accelerates healing after aesthetic procedures. Bridging the Gap Between Aesthetic Treatments and Downtime While modern aesthetic procedures deliver outstanding results, downtime has remained an unavoidable downside. Patients often endure redness, swelling, and discomfort following treatments. REVAGI was created to address these issues. It immediately calms inflammation, soothes sensitivity, and helps patients recover faster, ultimately leading to better clinical outcomes and greater patient satisfaction. Plastic surgery clinics such as Polaris Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, AZATACA Plastic Surgery, and Wong’s Plastic Surgery Centre have integrated REVAGI into their post-treatment protocols, further demonstrating its efficacy. Beyond Post-Procedure Recovery: A Daily Regeneration Solution Beyond its role in recovery, REVAGI also supports daily skin rejuvenation. It's recommended by plastic surgeons and aesthetic doctors for both immediate healing and long-term skincare. In-Clinic Benefits: Accelerated Post-Procedure Recovery: Instantly calms redness and inflammation, reducing downtime after treatments like lasers and RF microneedling. Enhances Injectables: Boosts hydration and elasticity, working synergistically with botulinum toxin and skin boosters. Scar & Burns Healing Support: Relieves pain and redness from first-degree burns, while promoting refined scar healing through structured collagen regeneration. At-Home Care: Daily Intensive Hydration: Delivers intense hydration, targets fine lines, and restores firmness. Routine-Friendly: Simple to apply and suitable for daily use. How to Use: To achieve the best results, apply REVAGI twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening immediately after cleansing. Gently massage it into the skin until fully absorbed, focusing on areas prone to wrinkles or dryness. Clinically Proven Results REVAGI is not just theoretical; it's clinically proven to deliver measurable results: Hydration: Clinically validated to boost hydration by +39% within 28 days. Wrinkle Reduction: Reduces wrinkle depth by -23% within the same time frame. Safe & Dermatologically Tested: Tested in the USA, hypoallergenic, fragrance-free, alcohol-free, paraben-free, and vegan-friendly. Ideal for Dry Skin & Aging Signs: Especially beneficial for women aged 40 and above with dry skin and visible signs of aging like fine lines and wrinkles. Availability REVAGI – The Recombinant Serum is available for SGD 225, exclusively through select plastic surgery and medical aesthetic clinics. It can also be purchased online at www. revagi. sg. Whether you're recovering from an aesthetic procedure or simply seeking to boost your skincare routine, REVAGI provides a clinically proven solution that accelerates healing and enhances skin regeneration, all while reducing downtime. --- - Published: 2025-08-01 - Modified: 2025-08-01 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/flying-tiger-copenhagen-makes-singapore-debut-brings-danish-design-to-bugis/ - Categories: EVENTS - Tags: Bugis+, Danish Design, Flying Tiger Copenhagen, PT Mitra Adiperkasa Tbk (MAP) The beloved Danish lifestyle brand brings its signature playful design to Bugis+, in partnership with PT Mitra Adiperkasa Tbk.

From 1 August to 30 September 2025, Wo Wo Dian is collaborating with beloved local snack brand The Golden Duck to launch a series of three exclusive dishes that uniquely combine the authentic Sichuan flavours with Singapore-inspired twists. Leading up to this stellar partnership was a year of innovation and localisation for Wo Wo Dian. Over the past year, the Sichuan eatery has effectively expanded its Singapore menu to cater to a wider and more inclusive audience – accommodating both local and international tastes – while staying true to its roots in authentic Sichuan flavours. Now, Wo Wo Dian’s Singapore menu offers a harmonious blend of both spicy and non-spicy dishes, a friendly invitation for everyone, young and old, to savour the rich flavours and essence of Sichuan cuisine. Shared Values, Fusing Flavours Sharing the same values of prioritising flavour and quality in their creations, Wo Wo Dian and The Golden Duck – though from varied backgrounds – came together because of their mutual philosophy. Hailing from Sichuan, Mianyang in China, steamed bun specialist Wo Wo Dian has 136 years of heritage. Over a century, it has won the hearts of its customers with its unique bun-making technique that’s recognised as an intangible cultural heritage, now passed down to the fifth generation. Handmade using laomian 老面 traditional sourdough, the buns are imbued with an incredible depth of flavour and a uniquely fluffy and pillowy texture. Over 5,200,000 buns were sold last year! Founded in 2015 by lifelong foodies Jonathan Shen and Chris Hwang, The Golden Duck (TGD) pioneered the globally loved, impossibly umami Salted Egg Yolk snacks that everyone loves. The quest is simple: to transform iconic Asian flavours into irresistible snacks that captivate the world (and stomach). A decade later, millions have enjoyed TGD’s bold-tasting snacks, with new creations going beyond Salted Egg to include Chilli Crab, as well as regional favourites Bangkok Tom Yum Goong and Sichuan Mala Hot Pot Fragrant Mix. Wo Wo Dian x The Golden Duck SG60 Celebration: Three Exclusive New Dishes For two months, from 1 August to 30 September 2025, Wo Wo Dian will collaborate with The Golden Duck to launch three exclusive new dishes, perfect fusions of authentic Sichuan cuisine with Singapore’s beloved flavours.

Changi Airport kicked off its lineup of celebrations for Singapore’s 60th birthday with the SG60 Changi Airport Charity Walk and Airport Boulevard light-up. Held along the Changi Airport Connector, the event drew over 1,200 participants and was graced by Acting Minister for Transport and Senior Minister of State for Finance Mr Jeffrey Siow, alongside representatives of the Changi Airport community and members of the public. The Charity Walk garnered over $57,000 through registration fees and public donations. With dollar-for-dollar matching by both the Changi Foundation and SG Gives, a total of over $220,000 was raised. This fundraising initiative will support a range of causes, including Community Chest-funded programmes that empower youth-at-risk and children with special needs. Mr Jayson Goh, Executive Vice President of Airport Management at Changi Airport Group, said, “The strong show of support from the public and members of the ONE Changi community in this SG60 Changi Airport Charity Walk has been truly inspiring. Their generosity has made a meaningful difference to the causes supported by Community Chest. As Singapore prepares to mark its 60th birthday in just a few weeks, Changi Airport warmly welcomes all visitors to join in the rest of the festivities that we have lined up. ” Airport Boulevard lights up to mark ‘60 Years of Homecoming’ Acting Minister for Transport launching the ‘60 Years of Homecoming’ light-up alongside Mr Yam Kum Weng, CEO of Changi Airport Group (first from left), and Mr Jayson Goh, Executive Vice President of Airport Management (first from right).

Commemorating ‘60 Years of Homecoming’, the dazzling display features an array of Singapore icons lined up along a segment of Airport Boulevard, culminating in a majestic arch adorned in the red and white of the Singapore flag. Over 100-kilometres of LED lights were used to create the stunning display, which includes iconic sights like Gardens by the Bay, the Merlion, the Toa Payoh Dragon Playground, and the Changi Control Tower. The SG60 light-up will continue to illuminate Airport Boulevard until the end of the year, both welcoming and bidding farewell to travellers and Changi’s visitors as they continue their journeys. Strolling amid celebratory lights and local treats for a good cause From the flag-off at Terminal 2’s Race Village, participants in the Charity Walk embarked on a scenic two-kilometre walk that took them down memory lane. Along the route, participants received glow sticks, enjoyed interactive trivia, and posed with charming local delight-themed installations like kueh lapis, durians, and curry puffs – perfect for capturing memorable photo moments. Old-school snacks like colourful iced gem biscuits and ice cream sandwiches brought a taste of nostalgia to the walk, while finishers at Terminal 4 were rewarded with a commemorative medallion and an SG60 plush keychain featuring Buddy Bear or Mr Merlion. For a bonus challenge, participants could choose to extend their walk to the Jurassic Mile, where life-sized dino-themed light installations and a hidden checkpoint awaited, offering a whimsical, photo-worthy finale to the evening. More SG60 celebrations at Changi Airport Visitors looking to get in the celebratory mood can look forward to a host of exciting SG60-themed events and installations across Changi Airport and Jewel in the coming weeks.

The name myBoostars is a fusion of “booster”, referencing the signature formula that powers the brand, “my boo” a term of endearment, and “stars” symbolising brilliance and radiance. Inspired by skincare science, the brand brings a fresh way to care for your hair at home through thoughtfully formulated products that deliver deep nourishment, visible results, and a moment of daily joy. With carefully selected beauty ingredients and proprietary booster technology that improves absorption by up to 1. 5 times, myBoostars transforms everyday haircare into a deeply nourishing ritual that delivers visible results and emotional uplift. The range features two focused collections: KERATIN BOOST-REPAIR and COLLAGEN BOOST-MOISTURE, designed for deep repair and lasting hydration respectively. The Science Behind the Innovative Booster Formulation: Unlock Deep Hair Repair and Salon-Worthy Hair Pampering Busy schedules, frequent styling and chemical treatments can take a toll on your hair — leaving it dry, frizzy and difficult to manage. Designed for today’s fast-paced lifestyle, myBoostars offers an effortless way to maintain healthy, beautiful hair without needing to visit the salon. Each formula is powered by Neosolue™-Aqulio, a skincare-inspired booster technology that helps ingredients like keratin and collagen penetrate deep into the hair shaft. The range works to restore and maintain hair health, while offering a quick yet soothing self-care ritual, even in the midst of hectic schedules. Introducing myBoostars' Signature Series KERATIN BOOST-REPAIR Fragrance: Fresh Citrus Savon Ideal for damaged or chemically treated hair, this formula is powered by 4 types of Hydrolysed Keratin4 that work together to repair damage from within. With regular use, hair feels noticeably smoother, shines more brilliantly, and looks freshly styled — all without a trip to the salon. COLLAGEN BOOST-MOISTURE Fragrance: Refreshing Bergamot Aroma Great for dry or sensitive scalps, this series is formulated with 3 types of Hydrolysed Collagen and biotin (Vitamin B7) to deliver deep hydration while strengthening hair from the root. It helps lock in moisture, improve manageability, and enhance scalp health. The result is hydrated and healthy hair that stays bouncy and manageable. Meet Your New Hair Essential: Booster Mist A hydrating mist and treatment in one, perfect for humid days With high humidity outdoors and constant exposure to air-conditioning indoors, hair in Singapore often struggles to stay smooth, hydrated, and manageable. myBoostars Booster Mist is designed to support your hair through these everyday conditions with a smart, dual-layer formula that blends nourishing oils and water-based actives in a single, lightweight spray. It refreshes, smooths, and protects hair without weighing it down — perfect for your daily routine.

Recognising the pivotal link between feeding and speech development, Pigeon Singapore is proud to unveil StarTouch™ Straw Cup with Gravity Ball, a thoughtful and innovative solution designed not just to hydrate, but to support babies’ journey toward confident communication. Co-developed with Dr Lisa Lim, a Singapore-based Speech-Language Pathologist (PhD) and Clinical Director at The Speech Practice with over 17 years of clinical experience, Pigeon StarTouch™ Straw Cup is built to promote healthy oral motor development, shaping the very muscles and movements essential for speech. “Early feeding experiences lay the foundation for how babies learn to breathe, chew, and eventually speak,” said Dr Lim. "I wanted a cup that does more than just deliver liquids; I wanted a cup that supports babies in developing essential oral motor skills such as tongue tip elevation, jaw stability and lip closure from the very start,” she continued. By leveraging Dr Lim’s extensive knowledge, Pigeon refined every detail: from the angle and positioning of the straw to how the valve opens in response to gentle sucking – not biting. Complemented with a gravity ball that allows babies to drink from any angle, the cup supports the development of lip closure, tongue retraction, and jaw stability – key foundations for safe swallowing and early speech development, which help develop oral motor skills essential for healthy growth. Together, these thoughtful features make the Pigeon StarTouch™ Straw Cup the right cup for easy sips – and a science-backed way to support your baby’s development, one sip at a time. “Partnering with Dr Lim opened up new ways to look at product design through a developmental lens. Her deep understanding of feeding and speech helped us reimagine what a straw cup can do, not just for hydration, but for healthy oral motor development. Pigeon StarTouch™ Straw Cup empowers parents with a simple tool that delivers meaningful impact – one sip at a time,” shared Masataka Hongo, Managing Director of Pigeon Singapore. A Smarter, Science-Backed Way to Sip Pigeon StarTouch™ Straw Cup is thoughtfully designed to support natural oral motor development, helping babies build crucial mouth movements in a natural and enjoyable way. Conventional sippy spout cups and long straws might hinder proper tongue posture by encouraging the tongue to stay low in the mouth or push forward. Some valved straws require stronger suction, which can sometimes lead babies to adopt alternative sipping patterns, such as tongue thrusting, lip pursing, or jaw jutting, that may not support optimal oral motor development. Over time, this may be associated with immature oral-motor patterns that affect how babies learn to feed efficiently and produce speech sounds clearly. This newest addition supports muscle memory for key oral motor skills essential for speech clarity, especially the development of lip rounding (for early developing sounds like “oo” and “w”), lip closure (needed for sounds such as “b,” “p”, “m”), and tongue elevation (important for early speech sounds like “t,” “d”, “n”). Key Features: Short Straw – The short straw reaches only to the baby’s tongue tip, supporting tongue tip elevation at the alveolar ridge and promoting a mature swallow pattern. Sensory Bumps – Provide tactile feedback to encourage lip rounding and closure, and help strengthen lip muscles for sounds like “oo,” “w,” and “b”. EasyDrink Valve – Allows for easy, spill-free sipping without hard suction or biting Available in 3 vibrant, eye-catching colours – Bubblegum Pop, Berry Blast, and Mint To Be – Pigeon StarTouch™ Straw Cup is as fun and stylish to use as it is beneficial. It’s thoroughly tested to ensure safe and consistent use throughout daily routines, meeting the standards parents expect in an infant product. With both functionality and sustainability in mind, the cup is thoughtfully designed with: Gravity Ball Straw – Supports natural sipping from any angle Minimal parts for quick and easy cleaning, supporting better hygiene by reducing hidden spots where germs and residue can accumulate BPA- and BPS-free materials to reduce exposure to harmful chemicals 20% ISCC-certified bio-based plastic¹, making it a more eco-conscious choice Plus, the adapter from the cup is cross-compatible with Pigeon SofTouch™ Nursing Bottles² 240ml/300ml/330ml (excluding Glass), allowing for an easy start to straw drinking. For parents already using Pigeon SofTouch™ Nursing Bottles, introducing straw drinking is now simpler than ever. Starting in August, the StarTouch™ Adapter & Straw Set (S$12. 90) and Replacement Straw Set (S$9. 90) will be available for purchase at the same retailers as the Pigeon StarTouch™ Straw Cup. Both sets can be paired with Pigeon SofTouch™ Nursing Bottles 240ml/300ml/330ml. The Pigeon StarTouch™ Straw Cup with Gravity Ball is priced at S$20. 90 (250ml) and will be available both in stores and online after 6 July at Pigeon E Shop, Agape Babies, Amazon, Baby Kingdom, Isetan, First Few Years, Kiddy Palace, Mothercare, Motherswork, NTUC, OG, Lazada, Shopee, Takashimaya, Tangs and Tom & Stefanie.

And like any good recipe, it begins with the right ingredients. Located at Tan Boon Liat Building, the pantry-themed showroom contains full product range from sleep pods for quick nap trials to limited-time products promises to be a one-stop shop for Dreamers to cook up your perfect night’s sleep. Welcome to The Pantry, Woosa’s new pop-up showroom at Tan Boon Liat Building, the iconic landmark known for its home decor and furniture stores. Here, dreamers will find Woosa’s full range of mattresses, Adjustable and Storage beds, and sleep accessories. Three Sleep Pods — quiet alcoves designed for trialing different mattress types — are also available for booking.

Available while stocks last. Woosa’s Secret Recipe to a Great Night’s Sleep The Pantry brings to life their design philosophy: A good night’s sleep is like baking a beautiful treat. Taking a chef’s approach to mattress design, embracing the philosophy that creating the conditions for a great sleep is much like crafting the perfect cake: It’s not about any single ingredient or step, but rather, a harmony of premium ingredients, intentional layering, and quality craftsmanship coming together to deliver the best possible experience. The Pantry’s design takes its cue from the heart of a kitchen with a warm, terracotta-hued entryway reminiscent of a cosy pantry, and shelves crafted from rolling pins to evoke the tools of a baker. Sleep accessories like pillows and bedding are thoughtfully displayed pantry-style, like essential ingredients waiting to be handpicked for the perfect recipe for rest, while bakery-style notes around the space add a touch of levity. Mattresses are described with the same care as artisanal bakes; “the house recipe” for the popular Original mattress, or “bold base with a softer crust” to capture the plush firmness of the Terra Plush. These thoughtful details deepen the metaphor, transforming the process ofchoosing the perfect sleep essentials into something warm, indulgent, and just a little bit playful. They have also commissioned local artist ITCHYHANDSVAN to reimagine their signature mattress as a lush dessert. Visitors can marvel at The Original Plush Mattress Cake, a playful tiramisu-inspired sculpture made of resin and clay that mirrors each thoughtful layer that goes into our premium mattresses, creating a fun visual metaphor. Why The Pantry? Every Woosa showroom is more than a retail space — it’s part of a larger narrative, calling each of their spaces Dreamscapes, each with a unique concept designed to transport guests into an imaginative world inspired by the quiet beauty of slowing down. The Pantry is one such Dreamscape, bringing to life the warmth and intimacy of a kitchen, a space where comfort is prepared with intention. Here, the baking concept serves as a metaphor to the mattress creation process, drawing parallels between the care and quality that goes into creating an excellent baked treat to the craft of creating premium mattresses. And just as different cakes have distinctive taste of their own, each of the mattresses brings with them their own signature touch and feel, thanks to the premium ingredients and unique formulas.

From 20 July 2025 until 31 March 2026, PLAY + MAKE is set to transform the Discovery Room at CMSG into a vibrant space that complements CMSG’s existing special exhibition, Into the Hawkerverse. Ms Asmah Alias, Museum Director of CMSG and Director of Galleries, Exhibitions and Museums (GEM), HeritageSG said: “Food is such a meaningful part of our daily lives, and for our little ones, their earliest memories and connections are formed with food at the centre of it all. With the launch of this new space, we hope for our young visitors to learn more about this important aspect of our heritage and spark a deeper appreciation on how food brings people, cultures, and generations together. ” To develop PLAY + MAKE, CMSG worked with students from Star Learners Preschool and CMSG’s community of Little Ambassadors, in line with its pioneering child-centric, co-creative curation approach. Through a series of focus group discussions that provided valuable insights into the interests and creative processes of young minds, CMSG identified ways to fully immerse visitors into the space – by incorporating tactile materials, scents, and sensory play into its design. Besides working with children, CMSG also worked with local makers from brands such as Reckless Ericka, Tuckshop, and Artisan Bricks, to understand the maker’s mindset by finding out more about their sources of inspiration, tools of the trade, and creative journeys. These insights guided the development of some features within the space, which aim to encourage children to step into the shoes of a maker, sparking their imagination and creativity. These collaborations have culminated in the creation of the Maker’s Cabinet, the key highlight for PLAY + MAKE. The display showcases various items used in crafts such as pottery, basketry (rattan), and tailoring. These include a black pearl durian-inspired dress by Reckless Ericka, shoes inspired by Hokkien Mee and Nasi Lemak made by Tuckshop, and a LEGO Tingkat by Artisan Bricks. Within PLAY + MAKE, visitors are able to: ● Assemble their own outfit on a mannequin, inspired by fashion designers ● Feel the textures and observe the patterns on different fabric types ● Stage their own stories, fostering creativity and imagination ● Design their own kamcheng, inspired by a real kamcheng ● Make different types of kueh and throw a kueh tea party, embracing Singapore’s love for food traditions ● Learn about different materials related to local food heritage: wood, metal and rattan Visitors are also able to: ● Create paper dolls, exploring fashion and design – from July to September 2025 ● Design their own crockery, merging functionality with artistic expression – from October to December 2025 ● Weave patterns, honouring craft heritage – from January to March 2026 As part of CMSG’s efforts to support the well-being of both children and parents, it has co-developed a parental guide with therapists from BRB Kids, a Singapore-based mental wellness service, that will be available at PLAY + MAKE for visitors to browse and engage with during their visit. This guide is designed to support meaningful engagement and conversations between parents and their children through making and bonding activities. It encourages hands-on exploration, storytelling, object-based learning and play, supported by prompts that build language, emotional awareness, and problem-solving skills. Specially curated programming Alongside PLAY + MAKE, CMSG will also introduce specially curated programmes from September 2025 onwards. Families can expect a variety of free drop-in programmes such as storytelling and craft activities, as well as paid workshops. For paid programmes, CMSG is excited to present a novel excursion experience that brings participants on a facilitated learning journey within PLAY + MAKE, followed by a bus ride to the makers’ own spaces for curated workshops and tours. Designed to deepen engagement through play and creativity, these sessions will offer children more opportunities to explore Singapore’s food heritage in fun and meaningful ways. More details will be shared at a later date. Highlights include: ● Bubu and the Big Catch storytelling and craft workshop by Orang Laut ● Snow-skin mooncake workshop by Tong Heng Delicacies ● Sauce Discovery Tour by Nanyang Sauce Academy Beyond PLAY + MAKE Outside of the space, CMSG is excited to present a workshop for schools in celebration of our nation’s 60th birthday, SG60 Into the Hawkerverse Special: Be a Changemaker, at the Children’s Museum Singapore. This will be piloted with NAFA Arts School on 29 July, and with White Sands Primary School on 30 July. It will be open to more schools from 12 August 2025 onwards. This workshop brings students on a creative journey to revive Ah Huat’s hawker business through design and roleplay. The workshop is aligned with the Ministry of Education’s Social Studies curriculum and the Nurturing Early Learners framework and aims to support learning across preschool and primary levels by providing an engaging and immersive educational experience. CMSG will also be organising the PLAY + MAKE Travelling Exhibition, bringing Singapore’s food heritage to children across the nation, from August 2025 to January 2026. Storytelling sessions will be held at various libraries across the island, featuring tales that inspire children to think outside the box and explore creativity through the lens of food, culture, and creativity. --- - Published: 2025-07-17 - Modified: 2025-07-17 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/sentosa-grillfest-2025-ignites-beachfront-bonding-with-sizzling-new-experiences-from-17-july-to-10-august-2025/ - Categories: DINING - Tags: Sentosa GrillFest Sentosa GrillFest 2025 is set to be the biggest edition to date, featuring 39 participating food and beverage brands in five zones and the debut of two exciting new gastronomical experiences from 17 July to 10 August 2025. Mix, Mingle & Feast by the Beach This year, the magic of this culinary wonderland extends beyond the delectable spread of artfully curated flavour-forward selections. Taking centre stage is an exciting partnership with Offline Singapore, a homegrown social networking group, for a series of GrillHouse Social Mixer Nights. Designed to bring 160 people together over four gatherings at GrillFest, participants can look forward to evenings filled with delicious food and engaging social activities to spark vibrant beachfront connections. This innovative collaboration elevates GrillFest from a food-centric gathering into a dynamic social experience, fostering meaningful interactions against the backdrop of live music, sizzling grills, and ocean breezes. By blending gourmet dining with curated social connections, GrillFest seeks to create unforgettable moments and expand its appeal to a broader audience seeking both culinary delights and genuine connections. GrillHouse (L-R) Burnt Sambal Stingray, Aburi Torched Salmon and Burnt Sambal Lala from lyhseafood The pièce de resistance of GrillFest 2025 is the GrillHouse, an immersive dining experience that enables guests to become grill masters for a night with Ninja Foodi Smart XL Grill by Ninja Kitchen Singapore and premium ingredients from lyhseafood. There are three different curated platters to choose from, all featuring fresh and premium ingredients for guests to grill at their own pace. Guests can also enjoy the following experiences: Aburi Bar - Adding a touch of luxury to the GrillHouse experience is the Aburi Bar, where premium seafood like Bluefin Tuna Otoro and Swordfish will be flame-torched live, Japanese market style. Meat Concept - Meat lovers can enjoy wood-fire roasted crispy skin pig, dry-aged beef, and premium wagyu, grilled on demand or cooked by guests themselves. You Pick We Cook - Guests can choose and mix their own seafood and let the chefs grill it to perfection or bring their selections to their table to grill it themselves with Ninja Foodi Smart XL Grill. Marketplace Another new addition to the GrillFest experience is Marketplace, where guests can handpick premium fresh ingredients, including the finest cuts of meat, as well as fresh, locally farmed seafood and pesticide-free vegetables. What sets this experience apart are the interactive live stations, where guests can watch as expert chefs expertly prepare their selected ingredients on the sizzling grill and skilfully carve premium cuts right before their eyes. In addition, there will also be stations that feature fresh local produce such as seafood, mushrooms, and salad greens. In collaboration with SFA, SAFEF and SIAS, PARKROYAL COLLECTION Pickering will showcase how fresh seafood and other produce from our local farms can be transformed into exceptional dishes (be it grill, steam or stir fry) based on diners’ choice. Besides being fresher, local produce contributes to lower food miles, as the produce does not need to travel long distances or for long periods to reach consumers. This is aligned with GrillFest’s strong emphasis on quality produce and environmental responsibility, reflected in our commitment to reducing carbon footprint through partnerships with local farmers. Partnering with local start-up Staxx, Marketplace will also feature seating made from 100 per cent upcycled ocean-bound plastic for 25 per cent of its seats. New Flavours, Fresh Formats This year, GrillFest promises a dynamic mix of familiar favourites and bold new tastes. From sizzling international flavours at the International Grills to homegrown favourites at the Local Grills, and the opportunity to behold the skilled vendors showcasing culinary skills at the Beachside Grills, there is something for every palate and appetite. International Grills A one-stop culinary odyssey across oceans and continents, guests will have the opportunity to taste a variety of exotic global flavours - from smoky Jamaican jerk chicken to tangy Mexican street bites, and much more. New to GrillFest this year, Jamaican Chef Ricardo Allen will be serving up a true taste of Jamaica, Trinidad and the Caribbean isles at Camp Caribbean, and Carnaby by burger maestro Adam Penney will be grilling up mouthwatering burgers and their famed mini Sunday Roast. Local Grills Celebrate the best of homegrown talent with 18 of Singapore’s most exciting F&B brands. Expect new entrants such as Sea High, Smokeque and Oud Restaurant who will be joining the GrillFest lineup, serving modern twists on hawker classics to bold new, innovative flavours. Beachside Grills Perched along the waterfront, Beachside Grill elevates grilling into a captivating spectacle. Guests can witness and savour displays of culinary skill and techniques, and the irresistible aroma of open flame cooking against a stunning seaside backdrop. Making its GrillFest debut, CHARROU introduces their signature Trio Buns - a tantalising combination of crispy golden siu yuk, crystal char siew, and roasted duck, all nestled in pillowy lotus buns. Inclusivity In the spirit of community and inclusivity, 25 per cent of the seating areas within GrillFest will be wheelchair-friendly and reserved for guests with mobility impairments. Festivalgoers are encouraged to offer their table to such guests, if so requested. GrillFest also ensures accessibility for all guests. While set along the Sentosa beachfront, the event features dedicated beach tracks, providing smooth and barrier-free access for wheelchair users and families with strollers. Guests with accessibility needs can download the access guide for more details on getting to Siloso Beach. Sustainability and Responsible Dining As a large-scale food festival held over four weekends, sustainability remains a cornerstone of GrillFest’s operational ethos. In alignment with Sentosa Disposables Policy, all vendors are required to use compostable packaging and cutlery, ensuring minimal environmental impact. Single-use plastic bottled beverages will not be available at the event, reinforcing their commitment to a greener future. GrillFest continues to evolve its sustainability practices, having significantly reduced large-format printing in their marketing materials and installed water coolers across the grounds, furthering their vision of creating environmentally conscious events on Sentosa.

Pigeon Singapore officially launches the MiniLight Pacifier Sustainable Collection, a meaningful collaboration with homegrown social enterprise The Animal Project (TAP). Designed with both impact and intention, each pacifier in the collection is a quiet yet powerful symbol of inclusivity, sustainability and the creative brilliance of artists with special needs. A Collaboration that Celebrates Inclusivity and Diverse Talents True to Pigeon’s brand promise to “Celebrate babies the way they are”, this partnership goes further to celebrate people the way they are, especially individuals on the autism spectrum. According to the World Health Organisation, approximately 1 in 100 children are diagnosed with autism¹. This collection honours that reality by highlighting the exceptional talents of artists who see and express the world differently. Each pacifier features exclusive hand-drawn artwork by three Singaporean artists from TAP: Foo Thong Keen, who has keen eyes for observational drawing (pun intended). His animals often carry a bewildered expression; their eyes are wide open, with jaws dropped in disbelief. Jolie Lim, whose illustrations have a mischievous and joyful streak. Her animal illustrations are so quirky, they put a smile on your face. Tay Jun-Yi, who simply loves drawing animals. With just a black marker, he brings each creature to life through distinctive, cheeky expressions and vivid depictions of social interactions – something he rarely initiates himself due to his autism. This isn’t just packaging; it’s a canvas for advocacy. With every purchase, a portion of the proceeds goes directly to supporting these artists, shifting perceptions from disability to creative potential. It’s a gentle act of parenting that carries a powerful message – that every child deserves love, and every individual deserves a voice. “This collaboration with Pigeon strengthens our resolve to support inclusion and diversity. It is an excellent platform to raise greater awareness of the special needs community by celebrating their abilities rather than their disabilities,” said Roland Tay, Founder and CEO of The Animal Project. This sentiment is echoed by Pigeon Singapore, whose commitment to purposeful partnerships lies at the heart of this collaboration. “This partnership with TAP is deeply meaningful to us,” said Hongo Masataka, Managing Director of Pigeon Singapore. “It allows us to support local talent, raise awareness about inclusivity, and bring even more heart to our products. We hope families feel the love, care and purpose woven into every detail. ” Where Comfort Meets Conscious Design From Left to Right: Pigeon MiniLight Pacifier Sustainable Collection Size S, M and L Thoughtfully engineered, the MiniLight Pacifier Sustainable Collection is Pigeon’s lightest ever pacifier – designed to stay in the baby’s mouth longer while providing superior comfort. Its soft silicone nipple supports natural sucking, and large air holes prevent moisture build-up. Tailored for different stages, it comes in three sizes: S size – for 0+ months M size – for 6+ months L size – for 12+ months Each box contains two pacifiers, each featuring a unique design inspired by the TAP artists’ original illustrations. Beyond comfort, the MiniLight Pacifier Sustainable Collection embodies Pigeon’s belief that even the smallest products can take meaningful steps toward reducing environmental impact. The pacifier’s shield, button lid, and hygiene cover are each linked to 20% ISCC-certified bio-based plastic² derived from renewable alternatives such as residual oils rather than conventional fossil-based feedstocks. This bio-circular feedstock², selected after years of rigorous R&D, ensures a lower carbon footprint³ without compromising product safety or performance. By integrating social and sustainable initiatives into product development, Pigeon is redefining the standards of modern baby care, offering parents a conscious option to nurture not only their children but also the planet and its people. This reflects Pigeon's purpose to step forward in creating a more baby-friendly world for all. The Pigeon Minilight Pacifier Sustainable Collection will be available for S$12. 90 (2pcs). They can be purchased at Pigeon, Agape Babies, Baby Kingdom, Baby Toddly, Fairprice, Mothercare, Motherworks, Lazada, Shopee, The Animal Project, Watsons, and Takashimaya. To support The Animal Project (TAP), TAP items can be purchased through their preferred retail partner, The Art Faculty (TAF) at the Enabling Village, as well as at Pathlight School’s Ang Mo Kio and Tampines campuses.

Between the laundry pile and trying to remember when you last washed your hair, building a routine might feel like wishful thinking. But here's the truth: a gentle, predictable rhythm doesn’t just help your baby—it helps you too. This isn’t about following a rigid clock or comparing yourself to someone else’s highlight reel. It’s about creating tiny, doable habits that bring calm to the chaos. So let’s talk about building a newborn routine you can actually stick to—without overcomplicating your life. 1. Morning Moments: Starting the Day with Calm Rise and Greet the Day Gently There’s no need for a jarring alarm clock or a race to get dressed. Start your morning by opening the curtains, turning off white noise, and softly greeting your baby. This helps set a natural rhythm and signals the start of a new day without overstimulation. Diaper Change Check-In Use the first diaper change of the day as a mini check-in. Is your baby’s skin looking irritated? Are their toes cold? This quiet moment gives you time to notice small shifts in your baby’s comfort and respond accordingly. It’s less about rushing and more about connecting. Light Exposure Matters Getting sunlight—yes, even through a window—helps regulate your baby's sleep-wake cycle over time. Sit by a bright window while you feed, or take a short stroller walk if weather allows. This little boost of natural light can pay off at night. Tummy Time with a Twist Doing tummy time in the morning when your baby is more alert makes it easier to stick with. Add in some music or a colourful toy for engagement. Even a few minutes a day builds strength and promotes development without becoming a chore. Parent Reset Take two minutes to brush your hair, change into a clean shirt, or breathe with a hot drink in hand. A calm, present parent creates a calm, present environment. You matter in this routine too. 2. Feeding with Intention (and Flexibility) Follow Baby, Not the Clock Newborns eat a lot, and not always on a schedule. That’s okay. Responsive feeding—whether breast or bottle—is about watching cues, not tracking apps. Hunger doesn’t always wait for your timer to go off. Get Comfortable Find your go-to feeding spot. Whether it’s a rocking chair, bed, or couch corner, having a “feeding station” with water, burp cloths, and a book within reach makes feeds feel like less of a disruption and more of a pause. Use Feeding for Bonding Feeding is more than just nourishment. Make eye contact, hum softly, or gently stroke your baby’s hands. These micro-moments build trust and comfort—no extra effort required. Mid-Feed Diaper Break If your baby tends to doze off mid-feed, try changing their diaper between sides or halfway through the bottle. It gently wakes them up and keeps them feeding efficiently, especially during those cluster-feeding marathons. Know Your Products If your baby is experiencing reflux, gas, or fussiness, your bottle type or latch may need adjusting. Don’t hesitate to experiment or reach out to a lactation consultant. The best routine is one that works for your baby. 3. Touch, Care, and the Power of Gentle Products Bath Time Isn't a Must Every Day Daily baths aren’t necessary for newborns and can actually dry out delicate skin. A gentle wipe-down of hands, face, and diaper area is more than enough on most days. Save full baths for when they’re needed (or for calming bedtime routines). Massage for the Win Infant massage can soothe digestion, promote sleep, and deepen your bond. Use unscented, baby-safe oils or creams, and follow your baby’s cues—this isn’t a spa appointment, it’s a sweet conversation in touch. Don't Overdo the Products It’s tempting to try every lotion and potion out there, but simpler is often better. Choose fragrance-free, dermatologist-approved options. One great product that protects the skin barrier can go further than a shelf full of options. Clothes Matter Too Scratchy seams, snug necks, and overheating can all impact comfort. Opt for breathable cotton, avoid overdressing indoors, and keep a few favourite soft onesies in rotation. If your baby is cranky for “no reason,” their outfit might be the culprit. Watch for Dry Patches Early Noticing flaky spots, red cheeks, or diaper area rashes? Early treatment with the right moisturizer can make a world of difference. Apply after baths or during diaper changes to lock in hydration before problems arise. 4. Naps Without Pressure Learn the Sleepy Signals Yawning, staring into space, or fussing at familiar times of day? These are gold. Catching those signals before your baby is overtired makes naps smoother—for everyone involved. Create a Flexible Nap Environment Your baby doesn’t need blackout curtains and a white noise machine to nap perfectly—but having a consistent space helps. Try a dim room, a safe sleeping surface, and quiet surroundings to signal “rest time. ” Motion Isn’t a Crutch Contact naps and stroller snoozes aren’t bad habits—they’re survival tools. Don’t feel guilty for holding your baby during sleep. Over time, your baby will learn to nap in other ways too. Don't Chase the Perfect Schedule Some days your baby will nap like an angel. Other days, they won’t. That doesn’t mean you’re doing anything wrong. Consistency over time matters more than any one day’s nap success. Use the Wake Window as Your Guide Instead of watching the clock obsessively, pay attention to how long your baby is comfortably awake. For newborns, that’s usually 45–90 minutes. Use that time for connection, then offer sleep before overstimulation sets in. 5. Bedtime: Gentle Signals That Say "Rest" Set a Predictable Wind-Down A consistent, short routine—bath, feeding, lullaby, sleep—can cue your baby that sleep is coming. It doesn’t have to be fancy or Instagram-worthy. What matters is that it’s repeatable. Dim the Lights Start lowering lights about 30 minutes before bedtime. Less brightness = more melatonin = better sleep. This also helps you... --- - Published: 2025-07-03 - Modified: 2025-07-03 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/parenting-a-kindergartener-the-ups-and-downs/ - Categories: PARENTING/EDUCATION - Tags: Parenting a Kindergartener Parenting a kindergarten aged child is a pot mixed of wonder, challenges, and growth. Kindergarten marks the beginning of formal education as your child develops important skills while making friendships and discovering the world with endless curiosity. While parenting a kindergarten child may bring many joys along with unique obstacles, it does require having careful consideration and targeted strategies. This blog will look at some insights and advice for raising confident, well-rounded kindergarteners. Understanding the World from a Kindergartener's Eyes Children aged four to six are in an exciting stage where they're learning the balance between independence and guidance, quickly picking up on social skills as well as academic concepts. At this stage, their personality starts to become more distinct, and they become adventurous explorers of their environment. Parenting through this phase requires striking an effective balance between encouraging independence and offering consistent support. Kindergartners thrive at this stage in life by following routines but also welcoming unexpected moments of spontaneity. At this age, kindergartners work on honing motor skills, processing emotions, and building relationships with others. Knowing these developmental benchmarks allows parents to adapt strategies specifically tailored towards their child. Creating a Supportive Home Environment Every kindergartener deserves a safe, loving, and stimulating home environment that promotes their development. Creating communication, creativity, and consistency within your household environment can have a powerful influence on your child's overall progress and growth. Establish Routines Regular routines give children a sense of security and predictability. Morning rituals, homework time, playtime and bedtime rituals not only keep children on schedule but also help form discipline and responsibility. Encourage Open Communication Strive to form an environment in which your child feels heard. Listen closely as they tell stories of recess or their favorite part of school day. Engaged conversations help build trust between parent and child while increasing their confidence levels. Designate Learning Spaces Establishing specific areas for homework, art projects or quiet reading can help kindergarteners form associations between specific spaces and activities that increase focus and productivity. Nurturing Social and Emotional Intelligence Kindergarten is more than learning how to count or recognize letters. It's also a very important time for nurturing social and emotional intelligence in children. Helping your child manage emotions, understand perspectives, and form relationships is part of this stage's growth. Teach Emotional Regulation Start conversations about emotions by labeling feelings and providing strategies such as deep breathing or using words to express frustration. Emotional regulation is a skill they will benefit from for years. Model Positive Social Interactions Children learn by watching adults behave. You can set an excellent example by consistently showing kindness, manners and empathy toward others. For instance by showing gratitude or resolving conflicts peacefully. These are all valuable life skills they'll carry into adulthood. Support Peer Relationships Help your child build strong peer relationships by giving them opportunities to practice sharing, taking turns and managing conflicts in an informal setting through regular playdates or group activities. Encourage a Love of Learning Kindergarten provides an invaluable opportunity to form a life-long love for learning. Parents play a huge role by making education fun in their daily life. Celebrate Curiosity Be enthusiastic in answering all of your child's “why” questions with an eager attitude. Their curiosity is a huge component of learning. Use these moments to promote exploration and critical thought. Reading Together Regularly Engaging your child in reading regularly introduces them to new ideas, develops literacy skills and strengthens bonds between you and them. Make reading together part of their daily routine. Add books that align with their interests as part of this habitual reading ritual. There are many ways on how to help kindergarteners read, find one that best works for you. Create Hands-On Learning Experiences Engaging children's senses through hands-on experiences such as cooking, gardening and building with blocks is an effective way for them to explore concepts interactively and grasp them more fully. Managing Kindergarten Challenges Kindergarten presents its own set of challenges, from separation anxiety to meeting academic expectations. Addressing them head on can make this transitional period smoother for both parent and child. Ease Separation Anxiety Transitioning into school life can be tough for some children who are unfamiliar with being away from home for long stretches of time. A special handshake or encouraging note in their lunchbox may offer comfort during this transitional phase. Avoid Over Scheduling While organized activities are beneficial, too much may become exhausting for kindergarteners. Make sure they have ample free play and relaxation time in their schedules to recharge themselves. Stay Patient with Setbacks Struggles with reading, writing or behavioral challenges aren't unusual. Provide encouragement over criticism, and focus on their accomplishments over time. The Kindergarten Parent-Teacher Partnership Building an effective partnership between your child's teacher and yourself can significantly advance your child’s development. Open communication ensures you and the teacher remain aligned on goals and milestones to support success for your children. Attend Meetings and Events Parent-teacher conferences, school events and volunteer opportunities provide insights into your child's education while deepening relationships between educators and parents. Share Observations If you observe your child excelling or struggling in one area at home, sharing this knowledge with their teacher can create an integrated approach to development. Be Proactive Keep in the loop of the school policies, curriculum changes and any concerns. An active involvement shows your child that their education is an absolute top priority. Participate in School Activities By attending parent-teacher conferences, open houses, and extracurricular events at your child's school, demonstrates your dedication to their education while giving you the chance to interact with teachers and staff members in an informal setting.

Docking at Marina Bay Cruise Centre, the first time a warship has berthed at the terminal. The visit forms part of Operation Highmast, an eight-month deployment involving approximately 4,000 UK military personnel and engagements with more than 30 partner nations. HMS Prince of Wales, a Queen Elizabeth-class aircraft carrier and one of the most advanced warships in the world, leads an integrated task group comprising five core ships, 24 jets, and 17 helicopters. Personnel from the Royal Navy (2,500), Royal Air Force (592), and British Army (approximately 900) are taking part in the deployment, which spans the Mediterranean, Middle East, and Indo-Pacific. The Carrier Strike Group has already conducted joint exercises with partners including the United States, India, Malaysia, and Singapore. 23rd June 25 – Aircraft Carrier HMS Prince of Wales sails into Singapore. The ships of the UK’s Carrier Strike Group arrive in South-east Asia. Led by the aircraft carrier HMS Prince of Wales, which is visiting Singapore. The stop coincides with the 60th anniversary of diplomatic ties between the UK and Singapore. The Carrier Strike Group is the Royal Navy's key deployment of 2025. Led by UK flagship HMS Prince of Wales and involving a dozen nations, the eight-month mission - known as Operation Highmast - will take the task group to the western Pacific Rim via the Mediterranean and Middle East with a series of large-scale exercises with Britain's allies and partners. The goal is to reaffirm the UK’s commitment to the security of the Mediterranean and Indo-Pacific region, demonstrate collective resolve with our allies and showcase British trade and industry. Over the course of the deployment, upwards of 4,500 British military personnel will be involved, including nearly 600 RAF and 900 soldiers alongside 2,500 Royal Navy sailors and Royal Marines. The visit to Singapore reflects the UK’s commitment to long-term regional partnerships and the rules-based international order. Events onboard HMS Prince of Wales are being hosted to connect UK and Singaporean stakeholders across defence and security, science and technology, and business and investment sectors, highlighting mutual priorities in innovation and economic growth. While in Singapore, HMS Prince of Wales will host a series of engagements with government, industry, and research leaders underscoring not only defence collaboration but also broader bilateral cooperation. The visit also signals the UK’s strategic intent to maintain a lasting presence in the Indo-Pacific and support regional resilience amid global challenges. The deployment of the Carrier Strike Group is seen as both a symbol and substance of the UK’s Indo-Pacific tilt—underscoring how Euro-Atlantic and Indo-Pacific security are closely linked, and reaffirming Britain’s role in shaping a stable, open, and prosperous international order. --- - Published: 2025-06-20 - Modified: 2025-06-20 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/west-mall-launches-a-renewed-community-hub-after-significant-enhancement/ - Categories: EVENTS - Tags: @westmallsg, Bukit Batok, Community Hub, Singapore Land Group Limited, SingLand, West Mall Singapore Land Group Limited (“SingLand”) is proud to announce the successful completion of West Mall’s asset enhancement initiative (“AEI”), reinforcing the mall's position as a vibrant community hub in the heart of Bukit Batok.

Whether you're heading out for a vacation, working long hours, or dealing with an emergency, it's completely normal to worry about how your furry friend will cope without you. You might ask yourself questions like, "Will they be okay? " or "Will they miss me? " The truth is, pets aren't just animals—they're family. They bring joy, comfort, and unconditional love into our lives, so it makes sense that we want to make sure they’re safe and happy when we can't be there. The Comfort of Familiar Surroundings One of the best ways to ease this worry is by keeping your pet in a familiar environment. Pets love routine. They enjoy knowing where their food is, what time they eat, where they sleep, and who gives them cuddles. When they stay in their own home, they feel more relaxed. Imagine your dog waking up in his usual bed, eating from his favorite bowl, going for walks in the neighborhood he knows, and playing with toys that smell like you. Even though you're not there, everything else feels normal to him, and that helps him stay calm and happy. Why Routine Matters for Pets Changing your pet’s environment suddenly—like sending them to a kennel or leaving them alone for too long—can make them anxious or confused. Cats may hide or stop using the litter box. Dogs might bark a lot or chew on things. Some pets even lose their appetite or seem sad. But when their surroundings and routines stay the same, they feel more secure. This kind of comfort is just as important as food and water. It keeps them healthy in both body and mind. The Importance of Human Connection Another important aspect of ensuring your pet feels safe and loved while you're away is having someone who genuinely cares for them. Pets don’t just need the basics like feeding and walking. They need attention, playtime, and affection. A trusted caregiver will take time to bond with your pet. They’ll learn your pet’s likes and dislikes—whether your cat loves chin scratches or prefers to nap alone, or whether your dog enjoys playing fetch or just lying at someone’s feet. When someone you trust takes care of your pet, they’ll also notice small changes. Maybe your dog isn't eating as much, or your cat is hiding more than usual. These little things could be signs that something’s wrong, and a good caregiver will know when to contact you or the vet. Plus, having someone visit your home means it doesn’t sit empty, which is a bonus for your home’s safety. Preparing for Time Apart If you’re planning to be away, it’s a good idea to prepare early. Before you leave, try to have your pet meet the caregiver while you’re still around. This helps build trust between them. Leave clear instructions about feeding, walking, playtime, medications (if any), and any special needs your pet may have. Also, leave out some comfort items, such as their favorite toy, blanket, or treats. These small touches help your pet feel loved and less alone. The Right People Make a Big Difference Some people are just naturally great with animals. They enjoy spending time with them and treat them like their own. These are the kinds of people you want caring for your pet when you're away. They don't see it as a job—they see it as a way to make your pet feel happy and loved. When your pet has someone like that around, you'll notice it right away. You’ll come back to a pet that’s still cheerful, relaxed, and just as loving as when you left. Peace of Mind for You, Comfort for Your Pet Let’s be honest: knowing your pet is well taken care of gives you peace of mind. You can focus on your work, enjoy your vacation, or handle your responsibilities without constantly worrying. You won’t need to check your phone every hour or wonder if your pet is lonely. Instead, you can feel confident that they’re doing just fine in the comfort of their own home. If you’re looking for someone you can trust to care for your pet with love and professionalism, you can count on Luce Singapore. They understand how much your pets mean to you and go the extra mile to make sure every paw, tail, and whisker is cared for with kindness—even when you’re not there to do it yourself. --- - Published: 2025-06-18 - Modified: 2025-06-18 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/stay-healthy-get-active-with-watsons-singapores-favourite-wellness-festival-returns-with-usagyuuun-cheer/ - Categories: EVENTS, STYLE/BEAUTY - Tags: Compass One Atrium, Get Active, Stay Healthy Get Active, Watsons, Watsons Singapore Singapore, lace up and level up!

In a unique and timely initiative launched in celebration of Earth Day 2025, Mandai X and Paya Lebar Quarter (PLQ) have teamed up to make sustainability accessible and engaging for young minds through Ranger Buddies @ PLQ Parkside: Missions Around the World. Running from now until the end of 2026, this immersive activation invites children and families to take on conservation-themed missions at PLQ Parkside a lush, outdoor environment enhanced by augmented reality (AR) and hands-on play. To delve deeper into the philosophy and ambitions behind this initiative, we spoke with Belina Lee, CEO of Mandai X and Deputy CEO, Transformation & Growth of Mandai Wildlife Group, and Jenny Khoo, Head of Retail and Workspace Management, Singapore at Lendlease. They shared how Ranger Buddies is shaping a generation of eco-conscious changemakers, and why PLQ Parkside was the perfect urban setting for this impactful collaboration. (L-R) Belina Lee, CEO of Mandai X & Deputy CEO of Mandai Wildlife Group, and Jenny Khoo, Head of Retail and Workspace Management, Singapore, Lendlease. Interview with Belina Lee, CEO of Mandai X & Deputy CEO (Transformation & Growth), Mandai Wildlife Group 1. Climate change is a significant concern, especially for the younger generation. How does the Ranger Buddies programme approach this topic to make it both understandable and empowering for children? Belina Lee: The Ranger Buddies Missions make climate and conservation topics relatable and empowering for children by combining fun with purpose. Developed with education and wildlife experts, each mission blends age-appropriate storytelling with hands-on activities—both physical and digital—that children can complete on their own or with their parents. Through relatable characters, including animal friends inspired by our beloved animal residents in the Mandai Wildlife Reserve, as well as bite-sized knowledge, children learn that even small actions can have big impact. It’s about nurturing a generation that sees itself as changemakers today and takes action towards creating positive change. 2. The programme emphasises the C. O. U. R. A. G. E. strengths—Curious, Optimistic, Undaunted, Resourceful, Adaptable, Gritty, and Empathetic. How are these traits integrated into the activities at PLQ Parkside to foster these qualities in children? Belina Lee: The mission activities at PLQ Parkside have been thoughtfully curated for children to put character strengths into action as they learn about their role in protecting the environment. For instance, the Village Voices activity sparks curiosity as children listen to the audio clips about a village at the foot of Mount Everest and investigate its flooding. In the Red Panda Rescue mission, kids tap into their adaptability and undauntedness as they navigate obstacles to “save” a red panda. These hands-on opportunities not only help children embody and grow these traits but also provide opportunities to nurture essential life skills, shaping them into future-ready global citizens who are ready to make a difference. 3. The Ranger Buddies @ PLQ Parkside initiative combines physical and digital experiences. How does this "phygital" approach enhance children's engagement and understanding of conservation topics? Belina Lee: Ranger Buddies Missions are all about real-world exploration and enabling children to learn through play. We believe in harnessing technology to complement physical, real-world learning. For example, augmented reality (AR) brings the missions to life by adding a layer of immersion to the experience. At PLQ Parkside, children can “step through” an AR “teleportation portal” to mark the beginning of their adventure and get “transported” to the virtual expedition at the Himalayas to investigate sudden floods and learn how to help. In the Go Green activity, the physical effort of rolling coloured balls into positive energy sources is then recorded on the Ranger Buddies app as reflections on their learnings, which they can then apply in their day-to-day lives. By merging physical and digital realms, we foster imagination and curiosity, empowering children to take ownership of their learning journey. They can not only engage physically with their environment but also benefit from virtual opportunities to enhance their learning. 4. Mandai Wildlife Group is traditionally associated with wildlife parks. What motivated Mandai X to extend its outreach to urban spaces like PLQ Parkside, and how does this align with your broader conservation goals? Belina Lee: As the growth and impact venture building arm of Mandai Wildlife Group, Mandai X spearheads purpose-led innovation to make the world a better place for people and wildlife. Our broader goal is to reach 1 billion children globally, encouraging positive changes in attitudes and behaviours, while equipping them to contribute to a sustainable future. To achieve this requires Mandai to create and scale consumer offerings that go beyond wildlife parks. This partnership with PLQ allows us to bring purposeful play beyond the Mandai Wildlife Reserve, into the heart of the city. It offers families greater accessibility to engage with conservation education in a fun and interactive way – right where they live, shop, and play. This makes it easier for them to participate in the missions all year round, reinforcing our commitment to shaping the next generation of conservation advocates. 5. What are the intended long-term outcomes of the Ranger Buddies initiative in shaping children's relationship with sustainability and conservation? Belina Lee: The Ranger Buddies programme is designed to nurture future generations of children to become future-ready yet responsible global citizens.

Known for its generous spreads and lively live stations, Oscar’s at Conrad Singapore Marina Bay presents two new themed dinner experiences: The Sea, Smoke & Spice and Flavours of Yesteryear. Celebrating the bold and the familiar, each theme invites guests to savour distinct culinary stories — from flame-kissed signatures served straight from the grill to heartwarming recipes passed down through generations. Oscar’s remains a destination where flavour, craft and comfort come together — for those returning to familiar favourites or exploring something new. THE SEA, SMOKE & SPICE From Wednesdays to Saturdays, The Sea, Smoke & Spice presents a bold curation of ocean delicacies, grilled meats and spice-rich specialities. Guests begin at the Ice Bar, where freshly shucked Oysters, Slipper Lobsters, Flower Crabs and Mussels offer a refreshing taste of the sea — a chilled overture to an evening of vibrant flavours. Outdoors, the experience centres around Oscar’s live charcoal BBQ, where the heat of the grill brings out the best in land and sea. Chargrilled Octopus with jacket potato and sour cream, Sticky Australian Lamb Ribs, Spice-rubbed Hanger Steak, Kurobuta Pork Tomahawk and Herb- buttered Veal Sausage Rolls are served hot off the coals — kissed with smoke and layered with bold marinades. Locally-farmed Barramundi, grilled in banana leaf and finished with asparagus, adds a coastal highlight. Alongside, a full Outdoor Tandoori Station anchors the spice trail — serving Indian and Arabian Specialities including Murgh Bharwan, tandoori seabass, grilled spiced mushrooms, and slow- roasted lamb shoulder, paired with fresh naan and an array of chutneys, raita and pickles. To conclude, the dessert spread is dedicated to one key ingredient: the strawberry. Celebrated for its freshness and natural vibrancy, it stars in shortcakes, praline tarts, mousse domes and the signature Strawberry Romanoff. The fruit’s delicate tartness and perfume offer the perfect counterpoint to the intensity of the savoury courses. Live waffles and a chocolate fountain round out the finale. The Sea, Smoke & Spice dinner buffet is available from Wednesdays to Saturdays, 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM, and is priced at S$96++ per adult and S$48++ per child (aged 6 to 12). FLAVOURS OF YESTERYEAR From Sundays to Tuesdays, Flavours of Yesteryear offers a nostalgic return to the comforting flavours of home — inspired by Oscar’s long standing reputation as a favourite among local diners. This dinner theme shines a spotlight on recipes contributed by the restaurant’s own multicultural team of chefs, each drawn from personal heritage and prepared with heart. Expect a soulful spread of familiar signatures: Ayam Masak Merah, Beef Rendang, Nasi Goreng Kampung, Sambal Udang Petai, Fried Carrot Cake, Sayur Lodeh, Spicy Banana Leaf Baked Fish,and Singapore Chilli Crab — dishes that bring generations together through shared memory and flavour. Live stations bring energy to the evening, with signatures like Hainanese Chicken Rice and Babi Panggang prepared to order — the former a perennial local favourite, the latter featuring grilled pork served with chilli kicap manis, tofu and tempeh. The buffet also features dishes with diverse culinary roots, such as Portuguese-influenced Minchi, Slow-cooked Oxtail Stew, Mie Goreng and sotong kangkung — each one telling a story of Singapore’s vibrant food heritage. Desserts continue the nostalgic journey with creamy Durian Pengat, colourful Nyonya Kuehs, pandan chiffon cake and classic Swiss rolls, served alongside freshly made waffles topped with local flavours. Flavours of Yesteryear is available from Sundays to Tuesdays, 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM, and is priced at S$78++ per adult and S$39++ per child (aged 6 to 12). Reservations are highly recommended.

Lobster & Beer Fest, running from 5 to 22 June, is a luxurious dinner buffet celebrating the king of crustaceans in a dozen mouthwatering ways all paired with refreshingly chilled free-flow Paulaner beer. At the heart of this celebration is Director of Culinary Chef Vijay, affectionately regarded as Singapore’s King of Lobster. Throughout his storied career, he has returned time and again to this prized crustacean, reimagining it across cuisines. Now, he presents his most extravagant lobster showcase yet. A Festival That Starts with a Statement From the moment guests arrive, it's clear this is no ordinary buffet. A massive lobster sculpture marks the entrance, followed by a striking five-tier lobster tower that anchors the buffet both irresistible for cameras and appetites alike. The buffet experience begins with two timeless favourites: a refreshing Lobster Cocktail and a rich, deeply comforting Lobster Bisque – the perfect way to start the evening. At the Seafood on Ice counter, Maine Lobster is served alongside fresh oysters, scallops, prawns and mud crab. The Japanese section features a Lobster Sushi Roll prepared à la minute, complemented by an array of sashimi and maki. 12 Lobster Creations from East to West The heart of the festival lies at the live cooking stations, where chefs plate up East-meets-West renditions of lobster with dramatic flair. Highlights include: Saffron Lobster Risotto, made to order with Parmesan and fresh herbs. Lobster Thermidor, bubbling with Emmental cheese and tarragon Lobster Bouillabaisse, a rustic Provençal seafood stew reimagined with lobster CLOVE’s Swiss Raclette Station, melting cheese over potatoes, sausage and pickles Carnivores are also well-fed with a carving station offering Roast Angus Beef, Lamb Leg, Ham, and Locally Sourced Barramundi. The Local Selection is where Chef Vijay’s roots shine. A proud Malaysian, Chef brings his heritage to life with a bold reinterpretation of Kam Heong Lobster – a dish traditionally made with crab. Here, he uses lobster to elevate the experience, wok-tossing it in a heady blend of dried shrimp, curry leaves, garlic, shallots, and black pepper for a rich, spicy-savoury result that’s unmistakably Malaysian. Other wok-fried favourites include Singapore Chilli Lobster and a fiery sichuan style Mala Lobster. Another local highlight is the Lobster Laksa, made with laksa leaves grown onsite at the hotel’s Aquaponics Farm. This deeply aromatic dish is full of local character and fragrance, offering a Singaporean classic elevated with fresh lobster. More Than Just Lobster Beyond the crustacean creativity, the buffet offers an array of vibrant accompaniments. The Vitality Salad Bar includes aquaponics-grown greens and an array of vibrant toppings and house-made dressings. There’s also a curated Cheese Selection, a full Indian Spread of Biryani, Chicken Curry, Dal, and Naan, and an impressive Bakery Corner with fresh breads, soft rolls and flavoured butters. A Sweet Finish Dessert is a showstopper in its own right. Prepared by the hotel’s award-winning pastry team, guests can end their meal with Swiss Chocolate Cake, Burnt Cheesecake, Tropical Fruits, Peranakan Kuehs, Macarons, and an Ice Cream and Sorbet Station with all the condiments. A Buffet Worth Raising a Glass To Priced at $118++ per adult for weekday dinners and $128++ on Fridays, Saturdays and the eve of public holidays, including free-flow Paulaner beer, CLOVE’s Lobster & Beer Fest is one of the city’s most decadent yet best-value lobster experiences. Children dine at 50% off the adult price. The buffet is diverse, playful, and packed with flavour — a celebration of lobster like Singapore has never seen before. With an unmatched spread, bold international flavours, and culinary theatre at every turn, this is not just a buffet — it’s Singapore’s ultimate lobster celebration. --- - Published: 2025-06-09 - Modified: 2025-06-12 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/june-school-holidays-singapore-sports-hub/ - Categories: EVENTS, PARENTING/EDUCATION - Tags: June School Holidays, Singapore Sports Hub It’s an action-packed June at Singapore Sports Hub with the fresh lineup of fitness and fun activities for all ages!

She is best known for hosting Mind Your Money, Eat Drink Singapore, and The Wellness Hour on CNA938, every weekday from 10am to 2pm. Cheryl also co-hosts Money Mind on CNA TV. With a career that spans both radio and television, she has built a reputation for clarity, warmth, and credibility. In 2018, she was awarded the Best Singapore News Story at the CNA TV News Awards. Beyond her professional achievements, Cheryl has become a courageous advocate for women's health and fertility. After experiencing a miscarriage in 2019, she began sharing her deeply personal journey with infertility, IVF, and pregnancy. Her openness has helped shed light on an often-silent struggle faced by many. In this exclusive interview, Cheryl speaks candidly about the emotional and physical challenges of her journey, how she balances broadcasting with personal trials, and the strength she's discovered along the way. Interview with Cheryl Goh: 1. Cheryl, your journey to motherhood has been both inspiring and challenging. What inspired you to open up about your fertility struggles? Cheryl Goh: When I first found out that I had fertility issues while trying to conceive, I was in a bit of disbelief. I struggled with questions of self-doubt and ‘why me’ thoughts. I’ve always been sporty, healthy and strong, and yet here I was, having issues conceiving. Besides my husband, I didn’t know who to talk to about this. In a moment of vulnerability during my first ‘two week wait’, I decided to share on Instagram, also as an outlet to express my innermost feelings. I didn’t expect the response I got – so many women reaching out to share about their own struggles with pregnancy loss and infertility. It made me realise it's more common than we think, and yet not talked about enough. I decided then that if me sharing my personal struggles could, in any small way, help normalise conversations about infertility, then it’s something I would continue to do. 2. After experiencing a miscarriage in 2019 and going through multiple IVF treatments, how did you find the emotional and physical strength to keep going through those years? Cheryl Goh: It wasn’t easy for sure. Each anxiety-filled two week wait and failed IVF transfer was filled with all kinds of emotions – hope, grief, frustration, anger, sadness. But throughout it all, I always told myself that ‘infertility doesn’t define me’. It’s a part of who I am, but it’s not my whole self. I tried not to let the infertility struggles consume me and focus on the other facets of who I am – a wife, furmama, daughter, aunt, friend, journalist and so on. I also channelled my energy into what I enjoyed doing, like yoga, and even got certified as a yoga instructor. Of course, the unwavering love and support from my husband through it all also helped me to get through it all. 3. The decision to remove both of your fallopian tubes in 2024 was no doubt a significant moment in your journey. How did you navigate the physical and emotional challenges of that experience? Cheryl Goh: This surgery was my third fertility related one in five years, and the hardest of them all. It led to complications with my intestines, resulting in two hospital stays (11 days) across three weeks, including one night in the high-dependency ward. When I was readmitted the second time, I couldn’t eat and was put on drip for 7 days due to paralytic ileus. Having a tube shoved down my nose and into my stomach while fully conscious is a trauma that will stay with me for life. I can say this period was one of the lowest in my life. Again, it was my husband and loved ones – parents, close friends and colleagues who constantly checked in and showed their love and support that helped me through the darkest of days. At that point, I asked myself if this was all worth it. I really didn’t feel it at the time, but now that I’m expecting, and I can say that yes, it was. 4. Throughout this period, you've continued to host shows at CNA938. How did you manage to maintain your professional responsibilities while facing such deeply personal struggles behind the scenes? Cheryl Goh: I go back to the line - ‘infertility doesn’t define me’ – and I always remind myself that I’m so much more than this struggle. I’m fortunate to have a job that I truly love as a presenter and producer on CNA938, so coming to work each day is something I truly relish. I’m also thankful that my bosses and team have been very understanding and supportive when I had to take extended hospital leave to recover from my surgeries and IVF procedures, or when I need to take time off for doctor’s appointments. This has given me the peace of mind to go and do what I need to go for my fertility. 5. As a strong advocate for women’s health, how has your own experience with miscarriage and IVF shaped the conversations you have on air, particularly about wellness and reproductive health? Cheryl Goh: I do not shy away from having such difficult conversations on air, and have spoken with groups like Fertility Support Singapore to try and raise awareness about such issues. Where appropriate, I will share a little bit of my personal experience – my goal is simple – to let women (and their partners) know that they are not alone in this. I’ve also had women I don’t know reach out to me on social media to share their experiences and just to vent, so I hope that in my own small way, I’m helping to make this difficult subject a little less overwhelming. 6. Given everything you've been through, what advice or support would you offer to women who are currently navigating similar fertility challenges or struggling with their... --- - Published: 2025-06-09 - Modified: 2025-06-10 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/interview-with-ezam-ernady-balancing-a-dynamic-radio-career-and-fatherhood/ - Categories: INTERVIEW, PARENTING/EDUCATION - Tags: Ezam Ernady, Mediacorp RIA 897 Ezam Ernady is a well-known radio personality on Mediacorp RIA 897, where he engages listeners with his vibrant presence and relatable content. At 32 years old, Ezam has developed a dynamic portfolio as a presenter, master of ceremonies, and content creator. In 2023, he took home the top prize in Suara Juara: The Star Voice, further elevating his profile in the broadcasting industry. Beyond the microphone, Ezam is a devoted family man, balancing the joys and responsibilities of raising three daughters while eagerly anticipating the arrival of his fourth child. Ezam’s journey in radio is rooted in a lifelong passion for music and storytelling, inspired by his late father’s work as a wedding host. Over the years, he has evolved from an aspiring presenter to a confident, multi-faceted media professional. His ability to balance high-energy public engagements with a busy family life speaks to his commitment and resilience. In this exclusive interview, Ezam shares candid insights into his career, his approach to parenting, and how fatherhood has shaped his connection with his audience. Interview with Ezam Ernady 1. You’ve been a familiar voice on RIA 897 for over a decade. What first drew you to the world of radio, and how has your journey evolved over the years? Ezam Ernady: My love for music began when I was just six years old. Growing up, I was inspired by my late father, who was a wedding host. Watching him sparked my curiosity about becoming a host myself one day. That dream became a reality when I joined a competition in 2023, which opened my eyes to the incredible world of radio. Over the past year as a presenter, I’ve discovered that radio is so much more than just speaking on air. Today’s DJs are content creators, producers, and digital storytellers. It's a role that challenges me creatively every day and keeps my routine exciting and fresh. 2. Since winning Suara Juara: The Star Voice in 2023, how has that milestone impacted your professional opportunities or confidence as a radio personality and emcee? Ezam Ernady: Winning Suara Juara was a turning point in my career. It brought greater visibility where I began getting recognized in public and saw a growth in my social media following. More importantly, it opened doors to larger hosting opportunities and allowed me to collaborate with seasoned DJs across different stations. These experiences have helped shape me into a more confident, well-rounded presenter and host. 3. You’ve become a well-known host for weddings and events, how do you balance that high-energy public-facing work with your commitments at RIA 897? Ezam Ernady: Being a wedding host is something I’m familiar with, but balancing it with radio work does require careful planning. Time management is key. I make sure my schedule is well-coordinated so I can give my best to both roles. I also prioritize my health by jogging and playing football a few times a month to maintain energy and focus. Rest and wellness are just as important as performance. 4. Outside of work, you’re a proud father of three daughters, and congratulations on expecting your fourth child! How would you say your parenting style has changed or evolved with each child? Ezam Ernady: Thank you! With each child, my approach to parenting has matured. My first taught me what it means to be a father. My second helped me develop a deeper sense of responsibility, discipline, and fairness. My third reminded me of the importance of time management, working hard, and finding joy in everyday moments. Each child has helped me grow not just as a parent, but as a person. 5. What are some core values or traditions you try to instill in your daughters, especially growing up in a media-savvy household? Ezam Ernady: We have a few household traditions, like no phones during meals and always eating together as a family. I emphasize respect for all people, regardless of race or religion, and teach them that discipline, education, and hygiene are non-negotiable. Also, drinking plain water is a must! In a world filled with digital noise, these values help ground them in what's important. 6. Has being a father influenced the way you approach your content or conversations on radio, especially when connecting with your audience? Ezam Ernady: Absolutely. Being a father gives me a deeper understanding of younger listeners. I understand their interests, their language, and even how they view public figures. I'm more mindful about the content I put out and the image I project because I know how impressionable the audience can be. It’s about being relatable while remaining responsible. 7. With such a packed professional schedule, how do you make time for yourself and your family, and what does quality time look like in your household? Ezam Ernady: My personal downtime usually happens after midnight which is after my night show. That’s when I relax by watching movies or listening to music, it helps me recharge. But my family is always my priority. Weekends are sacred, whether I’m on duty or not. I make it a point to bring my kids out to parks, beaches, malls, or at home ensuring they enjoy their childhood and know their parents are always there for them. 8. Looking ahead, what are some hopes or dreams you have for both your career and your growing family? Ezam Ernady: Career-wise, I hope to continue contributing meaningfully to the community perhaps by venturing more into off-air roles like acting or television hosting. To me, every day is a chance to learn and grow. As for my family, my dream is simple: that my children grow up happy, healthy, and supported. Just as they’ve always been there for me, I’ll always be there to support their dreams too. Ezam Ernady continues to embrace the dynamic world of radio and event hosting with passion and dedication, all while nurturing a growing family. His journey reflects a harmonious blend of professional growth and personal commitment, inspiring listeners and loved ones alike.... --- - Published: 2025-06-05 - Modified: 2025-06-05 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/step-into-the-ordinary-spf-studio-an-immersive-pop-up-experience-celebrating-the-launch-of-the-uv-filters-spf-45-serum/ - Categories: STYLE/BEAUTY - Tags: 50 Niven Road, Immersive Pop-Up Experience, The Ordinary, The Ordinary SPF Studio Takeover, UV Filters SPF45 Serum Discover the importance of sun care and learn more about The Ordinary through interactive stations and personalisation activities.

It’s where school lunches are packed, family dinners are prepared, snacks are sneaked, and weekend baking projects unfold. Amid the chaos and comfort, one often overlooked hero keeps everything running smoothly: the refrigerator. More specifically, a spacious, well-designed fridge that meets the demands of busy households. As families grow and schedules fill up, so does the need for smarter kitchen solutions. That’s exactly where the conversation about how a Side by Side refrigerator can make family life easier by offering both functionality and clarity begins. A large refrigerator with organized compartments, modern cooling systems, and flexible shelving doesn’t just store food—it brings structure to the daily rhythm. From reducing waste to simplifying meal planning, its impact goes far beyond cold storage. In this article, we’ll explore the hidden benefits of choosing the right fridge model, why more families are upgrading, and how daily life becomes simpler when food is stored in a thoughtful way. For anyone juggling a full household, the right fridge setup is less of a luxury and more of a necessity. Learn how a few smart design choices in your kitchen can help everyone breathe a little easier. Why Space in the Kitchen Means More Than Just Comfort The idea of "more space" in a fridge might sound like a small change, but for a family kitchen, it’s a total game-changer. Traditional refrigerators often lead to overcrowding—containers stacked on top of each other, forgotten leftovers in the back, and that annoying moment when milk tips over because everything is crammed too tightly. A spacious layout allows families to see their food at a glance, store larger quantities, and organize items by usage. This eliminates the daily stress of hunting for ingredients or realizing too late that something expired last week. Visibility and access reduce waste and make everyone feel more in control of their meals. It’s not just about the physical space—it’s about mental space too. When the fridge is organized, there’s one less thing to worry about. Morning routines become smoother, because breakfast essentials are where they should be. Grocery shopping becomes easier, because it's immediately obvious what’s missing. Instead of battling through a jumble of containers, a larger fridge brings peace of mind by offering order and predictability. "More space means less stress—because when you can see your food at a glance, you save time and avoid frustration. " For families that cook multiple times a day or share fridge space among several members, a well-structured appliance is essential. And if you're thinking of upgrading your kitchen to meet these needs, consider exploring a modern side by side refrigerator, which is specifically built with family life in mind. It’s not just a bigger fridge—it’s a smarter one. Creating Order in Grocery Shopping and Food Storage Organization starts before you even get home. With the right fridge setup, grocery lists become more strategic and food is less likely to go to waste. The ability to see all your perishables clearly helps you plan meals in advance and avoid duplicate purchases. Imagine being able to stock up during sales or plan weekly meals without worrying about how to fit everything in. A fridge with multiple compartments and adjustable shelves lets you tailor storage to your shopping style, whether you buy in bulk or prefer fresh produce every few days. Modern side-by-side fridges also often feature designated zones for dairy, meat, fruits, and vegetables. These aren’t just marketing gimmicks—they preserve freshness by using different humidity and temperature settings, reducing spoilage and helping you get the most out of every grocery run. Families with dietary preferences or allergies can even designate specific shelves or drawers, reducing the risk of cross-contamination and simplifying the daily search for "who’s food is this? " Within these storage solutions, several design elements make a big difference in daily use: Wide door bins that can fit juice cartons and 2-liter bottles with ease LED lighting that illuminates every corner of the fridge, reducing "out of sight, out of mind" food waste Adjustable shelves to accommodate everything from pizza boxes to birthday cakes These seemingly small upgrades collectively reshape how your kitchen functions and how your family eats. In the long term, this means better nutrition, less stress, and a more streamlined lifestyle. How Smart Cooling Technology Supports Your Daily Family Life Beyond size and layout, modern refrigerators are becoming intelligent partners in your home. They no longer just preserve food—they actively support a more organized and efficient lifestyle. For busy families, features like NoFrost technology, dual cooling systems, and fast freezing functions aren't just nice-to-haves. They directly impact how food is stored, how often groceries are purchased, and how smoothly the kitchen runs. A refrigerator that adjusts humidity and temperature zones ensures that fruits don’t shrivel and meat stays safely chilled, reducing both food waste and health risks. This matters especially when a household prepares different meals daily, stores snacks for kids, and saves leftovers for the next day. Many high-end refrigerators include user-friendly digital displays that allow quick control of internal settings. This means you can prep the fridge before a big grocery haul or turn on power-cooling when hosting a party. Even simple things like an automatic ice maker or a filtered water dispenser save precious time and keep everyone hydrated and happy. The focus here isn’t just convenience—it’s about minimizing the mental load that often falls disproportionately on parents trying to balance it all. To better understand how these features impact real life, take a look at the comparison table below: Feature Real-Life Benefit NoFrost Technology No manual defrosting = more time for family & activities Dual Cooling Circuits No flavor transfer between freezer and fridge compartments SuperCool/SuperFrost Rapid cooling after big shopping trips Smart Sensors Automatic adjustment to internal and external temperature These aren’t luxury features—they’re tools that help families reclaim time, reduce stress, and focus on what really matters: connection, meals,... --- - Published: 2025-06-02 - Modified: 2025-06-10 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/interview-with-natasha-faisal-balancing-life-at-mediacorp-radio-family-and-mentoring-in-987-star/ - Categories: INTERVIEW, PARENTING/EDUCATION - Tags: 987 STAR, Lunchbox, Mediacorp Radio 987, Mediacorp Radio DJ, Natasha Mohamad Faisal Natasha Mohamad Faisal is a popular personality on Mediacorp Radio 987, known for her vibrant spirit and cheeky sense of humour. She hosts the weekday lunchtime show Lunchbox, bringing her signature energy and warmth to the airwaves. Beyond radio, Natasha is also a television presenter and voice-over artist, while balancing life as a devoted mother to two young children: a 4-year-old daughter and a 10-month-old son. Her media career began when she placed as the first runner-up in the 2015 edition of 987 STAR, Mediacorp’s signature talent competition. The experience opened doors to her first opportunities in radio and eventually led to a full-time career in media. Today, Natasha has come full circle. She is involved in the current season of 987 STAR, not as a contestant, but as a mentor and judge for several of the competition’s challenges. As the competition continues, Natasha plays a key role in guiding and inspiring a new generation of aspiring radio talents. Note: The photos of Natasha were taken during the roadshows for Mediacorp 987 STAR. Natasha was the first runner-up in the 2015 edition of the same competition, and she’s now involved in the current season as a mentor and judge for some of the competition challenges. An Interview with Natasha Faisal In this exclusive interview, Natasha shares her career journey, what it’s like to balance media work with motherhood, and how she manages the demands of being in the public eye while staying true to herself. 1. You were the first runner-up in the 987 STAR competition, how did that experience shape your journey into radio and the media industry? Natasha Faisal: It changed everything for me. I didn’t win, but I didn’t need to. Just placing opened the door. After that, I stayed ready. I was that girl who’d lowkey hope a full-timer called in sick or go on vacation just so I could jump in. I said yes to every shift, every opportunity and slowly carved out my place. That experience taught me the power of showing up, consistently, humbly and with heart. 2. As the host of 987’s Lunchbox and a voice-over and TV presenter, how do you approach the different facets of your media career? Natasha Faisal: It’s my playground, truly. I love wearing different hats. Radio is where I’m most myself: casual, chaotic. VOs let me flex a different kind of creativity. One of my projects was voicing a children’s audio book and I get to personify animals. That was really fun croaking in the mic haha. And TV? That’s where I perfect my lipstick and channel my polished side. Each role keeps me on my toes and feeds a different part of me. 3. How do you juggle your career with being a devoted mother to two young children, and what does a typical day look like for you? Natasha Faisal: ‘Typical’ is generous haha every day is a plot twist! I’m up early with the kids usually negotiating breakfast choices before pre-shower meltdowns. Then it’s school drop-offs and jumping straight into work mode. Between meetings, radio and content creation, I sneak in mom tasks like replying to school chats, ordering groceries to cook for dinner. Evenings are for dinner, some play, bath time and my treasured bed time routines. The kids will start winding down at 8:30 and I crash around 10 if I don’t fall asleep during their story time first. Sometimes my husband and I will sneak in supper dates at this time. We really love breakfast for supper haha so while the house is asleep, we’d be hanging out and catching up in the kitchen having cereal or we’d make toast and eggs. 4. Motherhood brings many surprises, what have been some of the biggest lessons or unexpected joys since becoming a mum? Natasha Faisal: That control is an illusion. Kids will humble you real fast. I’ve learned to go with the flow, to pause when I need to, and to find joy in the tiniest things. I mentioned bed times earlier, it’s my favourite part of the day. Tickles and giggles catching up in bed. My girl would drop unsolicited I love you-s and that will send me to bed with the biggest smile. Motherhood has stretched my heart in ways I never expected. Exhausting? Yes. But also, the best kind of magic and gratification. 5. You often share snippets of your life as a mum on social media. How do you strike a balance between being open and maintaining personal boundaries, especially as a public figure? Natasha Faisal: I share what feels real and what I think might help someone else feel a little less alone. But I also know where my line is. Some moments are sacred. I think of it like a highlight reel. I want people to relate, not intrude. If it brings someone joy or solidarity, I’ve done my job. 6. As someone in the public eye, how do you manage public expectations while staying authentic in both your personal and professional life? Natasha Faisal: I remind myself that I don’t owe perfection. People resonate with realness more than a polished facade. Some days I show up on point, other days I show up in a messy bun many have spotted me doing grocery runs in PJs haha. I’ve learned to stop performing and start connecting. That mindset shift has been everything. 7. What are some of your aspirations, either professionally or personally, as you move forward in your journey as a working mum in media? Natasha Faisal: Professionally, I’d love to produce and develop content that champions local voices, especially women and mums. Personally, I just want to keep showing up for my kids, for myself and for the stories that matter. 8. Lastly, what advice would you give to women who look up to you and are hoping to pursue a career in radio or broadcasting while managing family life? Natasha Faisal: You don’t have to do it all at once.

From juggling demanding careers, to taking care of the family and children, they often prioritise the wellbeing and needs of their family, leaving little time for personal care and health, resulting in their own health taking a back seat. This can lead to feelings of fatigue and stress or more crucially increased risk and onset of health conditions. A study conducted on males aged 45–84 found that fathers tend to have a higher likelihood of suffering from poor cardiovascular and heart health as compared to non-fathers. Societal stigma around traditional masculinity often compounds this issue further, as men tend to be more reluctant to seek medical care or prioritise their own wellbeing for the fear of being perceived as ‘weak’. This not only underscores the heightened stress associated with fatherhood but also highlights the critical need for proactive health strategies to help men thrive as parents and providers. This Father’s Day, LAC (pronounced L-A-C), Leader in Antioxidative Control™, celebrates the dads who give their all. Behind every long day and every moment of support is a father striving to be his best—for himself and his family. As conversations around men’s health and self-care gain traction, there’s a shift toward more thoughtful ways to show appreciation. Supporting dads with simple, effective wellness tools — whether it’s for energy, focus, or recovery — is one way to help them feel their best, not just for the occasion, but for the long run. LAC Men’s Mega Maca — A fast-acting liquid blend tonic with key ingredients such as L-Arginine and Maca that boosts energy, vitality and stamina, keeping dads energised and resilient. LAC Activated Zhi® Energy — A perfect complement to Men’s Mega Maca, LAC Activated Zhi Energy combines Cordyceps and Lingzhi for instant focus, stamina, and a natural fuel without the crash. LAC Men’s Mega Multi Active — For the busy dad, this multivitamin is packed with over 40 clinically researched vitamins, minerals, and nutrients—offering a comprehensive all-in-one solution to support overall health, enhance physical performance, aid muscle function, and strengthen immunity. It is designed to help you stay energised, resilient, and present—so you never miss a moment with your family. In addition, receive the sleek, limited-edition black thermal LAC tumbler, a practical and stylish addition to Dad’s daily routine. As part of the Father’s Day promotion, this tumbler is also available to the public: LAC Club members will receive one with every $266 spent (maximum of three per member) from 1 to 30 June 2025. Free membership is included with any purchase. This Father’s Day, LAC delivers more than just thoughtful gifts, it offers meaningful support for dads to take charge of their health and wellbeing. From boosting energy and focus to enhancing immunity and overall vitality, each product is thoughtfully formulated to meet the evolving needs of today’s fathers. Whether it's through the energising Men’s Mega Maca, the focus-enhancing Activated Zhi® Energy, or the all-in-one Men’s Mega Multi Active, LAC empowers dads to stay strong, present, and resilient not just for their families, but for themselves. With the added touch of a sleek, limited-edition thermal tumbler, this year’s celebration is both practical and purposeful.

Within this landscape, across various experiential zones, and across major botanical touchpoints, visitors will encounter opportunities to: • Seize the rare opportunity to engage with the intelligent and fiercely loyal Velociraptor - Blue, whose piercing gaze is both captivating and chilling. • Bond with the adorable dinosaur babies of Jurassic World, where you’ll experience firsthand the unique connection between humans and these ancient creatures. • Stroll through the Evolution Walk, where you can venture back to a time before the age of dinosaurs, to learn about ancient plant species that existed long before the emergence of those that bear flowers. Evolution Walk features reconstructions of ancient plants that have become extinct, in an eye-opening showcase of how plants have evolved. • Marvel at delicate eggs and newborn dinosaurs inside the incubators. And for a truly unforgettable moment, witness nature’s own creation in action at the Pteranodon Nest. • Feel the texture of prehistoric dinosaur skin, breathe in the earthy scent of ancient forests, extract DNA from fossilized amber. • Come face-to-face with a ferocious, animatronic T-rex, then make your way to safety by slipping through a shattered fence, underneath her massive jaws. • Witness nature’s time capsule and see how something as simple as tree sap became the treasure troves of DNA that made Jurassic World possible.

The ultra-lightweight design makes it a joy to use, while the powerful yet quiet airflow cuts drying time without the noise. It's incredibly comfortable to hold and easy to maneuver, ideal for extended styling sessions or travel. Despite its compact size, the airflow is strong and efficient.

This June school holiday, UOL Malls — KINEX, United Square, and Velocity@Novena Square — will launch the first-ever U-Camp Holiday Workshops, running from 30 May to 6 July 2025. The curated programme offers exploratory, interest-based sessions designed to help children and teens explore what they’re good at and build confidence along the way. From robotics and music to martial arts and chess, the camp supports a growing shift in how families approach learning — one that values creativity, character-building, and real-world skills alongside academic achievement. It’s a timely chance for kids to branch out, try new things, and gain a sense of self before the pace of the school year picks up again. Encouraging Exploration Through a Variety of Programmes Across the three malls, the camp offers a curated lineup of interest-based classes tailored to each location. From coding and robotics to K-pop dance, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, cooking, music and art jamming, the activities differ by mall but share a common goal: to help kids explore new interests while building confidence, creativity, and social-emotional skills. Led by experienced coaches and educators in their respective fields, these sessions provide a supportive environment where kids are encouraged to try new things, express themselves freely, and grow through experience. For parents, it’s a meaningful way to spend the break while supporting their children’s development in ways that last. This variety is designed with kids’ natural interests in mind. Whether they’re drawn to movement, creativity, technology, or performance, each mall features a unique mix of age-appropriate programmes that give children and teens the chance to explore and discover at their own pace. At KINEX, kids can explore music with Fine Momentum Academy’s introduction to drum grooves, paint sneakers with MurcyArt Gallery, and design games at The Lab. They can also express themselves through K-pop dance, art, and cooking with Distinct Creative Arts, Tree Art, and Little Cook. There’s also Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with Evolve MMA, basketball clinics, and PSLE Mastery Class with Mavis Tutorial Centre. United Square offers a balance of academics and creative learning, with programmes from Aspire Hub Education, Hua Language Centre, and Chess at Three.

As the brand’s inaugural outlet globally, the new store breaks new ground in eco-conscious design by featuring furniture and hangers crafted from repurposed textile and agricultural waste, a first for any retailer in Singapore.

This bold move reflects iROO’s ongoing commitment to sustainability and responsible consumption, staying true to the brand’s ethos of creating fashion that’s not only stylish but also environmentally mindful. A Thoughtful Collaboration: iROO x Wynist Retail Solutions The store’s striking design is the result of a close collaboration with Wynist Retail Solutions, a Taiwan-based company established in 1999. Known for their progressive approach to sustainable retail fixtures, Wynist helped bring iROO’s green vision to life by incorporating materials like recycled fabric waste into textile boards for furniture, and agricultural waste specifically coffee grounds into the production of hangers. Other eco-conscious features of the outlet store include: Repurposed display furniture made from recycled fabric waste - textile boards Repurposed hangers made from agricultural waste (coffee grounds) Eco-friendly vinyl floor tiles Energy-efficient lighting throughout the space Elimination of paper/plastic shopping bags - only reusable bags are offered. New collections are introduced weekly in limited quantities, avoiding mass production and minimising fabric waste. This holistic design approach supports a circular economy, where waste is transformed into usable materials, helping to reduce landfill overflow and the depletion of natural resources. Promoting Conscious Consumption Unlike fast fashion retailers that prioritize mass production, iROO embraces a more intentional and sustainable approach by producing limited quantities. New collections are launched weekly, maintaining exclusivity while minimizing overproduction. This mindful strategy encourages customers to value the uniqueness and durability of each piece rather than making impulsive purchases. Each garment is thoughtfully crafted to ensure longevity and lasting emotional appeal. This approach not only helps reduce fabric waste but also resonates with customers who care deeply about both style and sustainability. Celebrating Innovation: Grand Opening at IMM iROO's grand opening and media launch was hosted by Mediacorp personality Joey Tay (Yu Rong). The event highlighted the brand’s sustainable journey and the creative minds behind the project. Acclaimed designer Jarrod Lim shared insights into his partnership with Wynist, which began through an unexpected connection via Italian luxury brand Barel. Lim’s work transforms Wynist’s recycled textile boards into beautiful, functional furniture, blending form, function, and sustainability in equal measure. Joining him was Anthony Ang, Director of Wynist Retail Solutions, who spoke about the company’s evolution from a traditional fixture manufacturer to a forward-thinking business driven by sustainable values. Today, Wynist collaborates closely with designers, brand owners, and government agencies to promote the circular economy across the retail, furniture, and MICE industries. Gracing the event was Mediacorp Artiste Zoe Tay, who officiated the Grand Opening of the iROO Outlet Store together with Ms. Emily Huang, Chief Operating Officer of iROO.

The Biennale aims to inspire young minds to dream big and embrace the boundless possibilities of their future through art and play. Guided by four core values of Joy, Kindness, Dream, and Love, spaces throughout the Gallery will be transformed into vibrant sites for play, learning, and imagination, with eight interactive and larger-than-life artworks by artists from Singapore and Asia. For the first time, all artworks in the Gallery Children’s Biennale include baby-friendly experiences that stimulate their auditory and visual senses in a safe environment. The Biennale champions accessibility and inclusivity for all audiences, with thoughtfully designed spaces and experiences that enable infants, toddlers, children, and persons with disabilities to enjoy and participate in art activities. This reflects the Gallery's unwavering dedication to cultivating a thoughtful, inclusive, and creative society, with the Gallery marking its 10th anniversary this year. Crafted especially for families and young visitors, the Gallery Children’s Biennale empowers children as co-creators and active participants as they engage in hands-on play and multi-sensory exploration, creating opportunities for families to bond and engage in open conversations. To enhance their experience, visitors may also pick up the Gallery Children’s Biennale 2025 Art Pack – an art activity kit filled with vibrant art supplies, step-by-step instructions, and creative explorations inspired by the eight artworks. For the first time, the Art Packs are available in two age-banded versions – one for children aged six and below and another for children aged seven and above – which encourages children to develop a love for art through these enjoyable educational resources. Ms Ong Zhen Min, Executive Director of Gallery Children’s Biennale, says, “Going into our fifth edition, the Gallery Children’s Biennale has ignited the imaginations and creativity of numerous young museum-goers over the years. Featuring diverse arts talents from our region, we have cultivated a love for art in children from a young age, through fun and accessible artworks and experiences. As we approach the milestone of the Gallery’s 10th anniversary, we seek to continue creating accessible touchpoints and a welcoming space for visitors of all backgrounds to enjoy the arts. ” Ms Ong added, “We are also honoured that the influence of the Biennale extends beyond the Gallery through our collaboration with the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in the Republic of Korea, which incorporated our theme and core values while planning their children’s exhibition. This collaboration reflects the Gallery’s ongoing commitment to being a leading visual arts institution in children’s art education and engagement. ” Gallery Children’s Biennale 2025 spotlights eight artworks, with seven commissioned works by local artists Fern Wong and Wyn-Lyn Tan, South Korean artist YeSeung Lee, Australia-based Japanese artist Hiromi Tango, Laotian artist Souliya Phoumivong, Malaysian-based art collective Co2_karbondioksida, Singapore-based Spanish artist Vicente Delgado, and an installation by the Gallery inspired by pioneer artist Mohamed Salehuddin’s painting, Malay House, Malacca (c. 1960). Embracing the Future with Joy Joy can be found in life’s simplest moments, whether it is spending time with loved ones or engaging in a favourite pastime. Through vibrant colours and playful movement, the Gallery Children’s Biennale invites children to explore what joy means to them and how it can be shared, and encourages children to express their gratitude for what brings happiness into their lives. Colourful Play by Fern Wong. Vinyl stickers, magnets, recycled plastics, foam, jute rope and synthetic carpet grass. Created for Gallery Children’s Biennale 2025: Tomorrow We’ll Be... . Local artist Fern Wong presents Colourful Play at the Gallery’s Coleman Entrance and Spine Hall in this first-time collaboration between the Biennale and ART:DIS (a non-profit organisation for persons with disabilities in the arts). Children can embrace feelings of joy through splashes of colour, playful textures, and patterns inspired by the artist’s intricate papercut works. The large interactive wall at the Spine Hall invites children to have their hand in completing the artist’s papercut design using magnetic papercut shapes. Babies and toddlers can have fun with colours, sound and materiality as they engage with a wall of maze, rotating sound makers, textural panels and reflective elements – likened to a sensorial busy board which encourages sensorial, cognitive development and exercising of fine and gross motor skills in early childhood. Together, these engagements form a growing tapestry of shared creativity that builds on Fern’s perspective on art. Dance Dance Chromatics by Wyn-Lyn Tan. Vinyl stickers, wood, video, carpet and plush cushions. Created for Gallery Children’s Biennale: Tomorrow We’ll Be... . At Dance Dance Chromatics, local artist Wyn-Lyn Tan welcomes visitors to put on their dancing shoes and explore art through movement and play. This multi-sensory artwork features a digital AI-generated landscape based on 20 years of the artist’s paintings, including serene scenes of the vast sky and the ocean’s waves. Responding dynamically to motion and touch, when children interact with the motion sensors and four directional floor pads on the ground, they trigger distinct disruptions in the colours and movement of the “living” video-wall of paintings. Similar to how artists use colours and movement to express feelings, children can explore how this movement-led artwork sparks joy and creates meaningful connections through art. Empowering the World through Kindness The Gallery Children’s Biennale champions kindness as a strength. The artworks invite visitors to consider the feelings and needs of others, nurturing empathy and emotional intelligence in children and demonstrating how to practice kindness. This enables them to become more understanding towards the different communities around them. Kindness Garden by Hiromi Tango. Fibreglass, steel, plywood, vinyl stickers, plush cushions and lavender essential oil. Created for Gallery Children’s Biennale 2025: Tomorrow We’ll Be... Kindness Garden by Japanese artist Hiromi Tango invites children to explore a garden of empathy through their senses of touch, sight, hearing and smell, with a series of giant blooming flowers and a “sound flower” as the centrepiece of the artwork.

In celebration of the 60th anniversary of Singapore’s independence, the National Museum of Singapore (NMS) is inviting visitors to embark on a voyage of discovery through the ebbs and flows of our nation’s transformation over the years with two new commemorative showcases opening on 24 May. Visitors can look forward to the special exhibition, Once Upon a Tide: Singapore’s Journey from Settlement to Global City, and the family-favourite Children’s Season making its return with Get Curious! Building Our Singapore. Tracing the tides of Singapore’s transformation: A thematic journey through over 700 years of history Running until 9 October 2026, Once Upon a Tide: Singapore’s Journey from Settlement to Global City anchors on Singapore’s maritime connections, inviting visitors to discover how the sea and river have shaped our evolution from a bustling 14th-century port to a global powerhouse of today. Featuring over 350 artefacts from the National Collection, the exhibition traces the constant flows of people, goods and ideas from around the world that have collectively woven the rich and diverse fabric of our nation, spanning centuries of history to the present day. It further reflects our shared journey over the years and commitment to building a shared future. The exhibition brings visitors across five immersive sections representing different aspects of Singapore’s evolution that are brought to life through experiential storytelling. The journey begins with the first section, Always on the Map, which traces our island’s deep historical roots and highlights Singapore’s prominence on a regional and global scale long before settlement by the British in 1819. Stepping into the section, visitors walk under the sloping arches of a monumental digital projection of waves crashing onto shores – a sight likely familiar to the early people who arrived here. This section features key artefacts that showcase Singapore’s strategic position at the crossroads of global flows, and its status as one of the key port settlements in the Malay world and Chinese trade network. Visitors can engage in a digital Find Your Singapore experience, where they can search for Singapore across different historical maps. Section One: Always on the Map The exhibition brings visitors across five immersive sections representing different aspects of Singapore’s evolution that are brought to life through experiential storytelling. The journey begins with the first section, Always on the Map, which traces our island’s deep historical roots and highlights Singapore’s prominence on a regional and global scale long before settlement by the British in 1819. Stepping into the section, visitors walk under the sloping arches of a monumental digital projection of waves crashing onto shores – a sight likely familiar to the early people who arrived here. This section features key artefacts that showcase Singapore’s strategic position at the crossroads of global flows, and its status as one of the key port settlements in the Malay world and Chinese trade network. Visitors can engage in a digital Find Your Singapore experience, where they can search for Singapore across different historical maps. Visitors can take on the Sampan Challenge in Section Two: The River Road In The River Road, visitors can sail through the history of the Singapore River, whose own evolution mirrors the story of Singapore’s economic development. Once the lifeblood of our early settlement, the river played a vital role in shaping our transformation into an international hub, fuelling the development of industries such as coaling and shipbuilding to become an iconic symbol of our nation’s progress. Today, we continue to celebrate Singapore’s diversity, and as a place with opportunities for all. Visitors can discover a range of artefacts highlighting the river’s vibrant past. For some added fun, visitors can take on the Sampan Challenge and “row across” the Singapore River, skillfully navigating past other vessels and battling the elements to safely deliver their passengers to their destination. Section Three: Expanding Horizons Complementing this narrative is Expanding Horizons, a section that sheds light on Singapore’s rigorous focus on creative land planning to overcome the inherent restraints of our limited physical size. This section features artefacts that reflect these efforts, including a letter from Sir Stamford Raffles to the town planning committee and a panoramic painting of Singapore’s skyline in 1976. Here, visitors can interact with a digital slider map that visually traces Singapore’s changing coastlines across the centuries, charting the long history of reclamation to our colonial times. Section Four: Flows of People Recognising that multiculturalism is the bedrock of Singapore’s identity, Flows of People pays tribute to the individuals who laid the foundation for Singapore’s cosmopolitan development, from early settlers to today’s modern workers. The section examines the lived experiences of the people who built our nation, provided transport services, defended it, and cared for others within society. Through intimate audio and video testimonials, visitors can hear directly from and be inspired by members of these communities. Photographic artefacts and personal mementos offer insight into the various tools of the trades, and a slice of the diversity of those who helped build the nation. This section also draws parallels between equivalent occupations in the past and present, from construction workers to caregivers, showing how these essential roles have evolved while continuing to play a vital role in Singapore’s ongoing story. Section Five: Making Waves Finally, the exhibition culminates in Making Waves, a section dedicated to spotlighting Singaporeans, homegrown businesses and organisations that have made waves globally across the areas of diplomacy, humanitarian efforts, innovation and hub development from 1965 to the present day. Visitors are invited to discover the stories of trailblazers who followed the road less travelled, redefining success and shaping an ever-evolving Singaporean identity on the global stage. From Singlish words making it into the Oxford Dictionary to local dishes being celebrated around the world, this section celebrates the unique local expressions that have gained international recognition.

Venue: Level 3 Men’s Department Takashimaya Department Store Duration: Now till 30 Aug 2025 Opening hours: 10. 00 am - 9. 30 pm --- - Published: 2025-05-20 - Modified: 2025-05-21 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/celebrate-everyday-beauty-with-sally-hansens-modern-pearl-collection/ - Categories: STYLE/BEAUTY - Tags: Sally Hansen, Sally Hansen’s Modern Pearl Collection A Radiant Tribute to Mums, Self-Care, and the Joy of Everyday Rituals This May, in celebration of Mother’s Day, Sally Hansen unveils the Modern Pearl Collection, a luminous new range of 8 pearlescent glitter gel polishes that honour the meaningful beauty rituals we share, especially between mothers and daughters. Inspired by the mother-of-pearl nail trend, the collection captures the soft, iridescent tones of sea glass and natural shells, evoking the essence of a serene seaside escape. Each shade serves as a shimmering reminder that beauty isn’t only found in grand gestures, but also in the quiet, everyday moments that shape our lives. Designed with both elegance and practicality in mind, the Miracle Gel™ formula offers a salon-quality, chip-resistant finish that lasts up to 8 days, all without the need for a UV lamp. With a simple two-step system (colour + top coat) and easy removal using regular nail polish remover, beautiful, long-lasting nails are now more accessible than ever. As we mark Mother’s Day month, Sally Hansen encourages women to embrace the beauty of everyday rituals whether it’s indulging in solo self-care, bonding through a shared manicure session, or expressing love through a thoughtful beauty gift. These seemingly small moments are where confidence, connection, and creativity truly bloom. Our review - A Pearlescent Polish That Balances Beauty and Practicality At first glance, the Modern Pearl Collection is undeniably eye-catching, a palette of soft, shimmering hues that instantly evoke a dreamy coastal atmosphere. But beyond its visual appeal lies a well-engineered formula that delivers on performance and ease of use. Each of the 8 shades features a delicate pearlescent finish, with subtle color shifts in the light, offering a multi-dimensional glow that’s elegant and modern. Whether you prefer a soft blush pink, a luminous lavender, or a classic iridescent white, the range offers versatile options to complement every style and skin tone. Application is seamless, thanks to the well-designed brush that glides smoothly across the nail with minimal streaking, a common issue in shimmer and glitter formulas. The polish itself has a lightweight texture, and typically just two coats are needed to achieve a rich, even finish. What really sets this collection apart is the Miracle Gel™ system, which provides the look and feel of a professional gel manicure without the need for UV light. The polish lasts up to 8 days with minimal chipping when used with the Miracle Gel™ Top Coat, a major bonus for anyone balancing work, family, and everything in between. Removal is quick and fuss-free, requiring only regular nail polish remover, unlike traditional gel systems that demand soaking or scraping. This makes it a practical option for beauty lovers who enjoy changing their nail look often without compromising nail health. Released in celebration of Mother's Day, the collection also carries a sentimental message, one that speaks to the joy of shared rituals and meaningful connections. Whether it’s painting nails with your mum, sharing beauty routines with loved ones, or enjoying a quiet self-care moment, this collection reminds us to slow down and savour these simple acts of love. Whether you’re gifting it to mum, sharing a mani moment with someone special, or simply treating yourself, Sally Hansen’s Modern Pearl Collection is a shining reminder to celebrate the everyday.

REVIEW: NNIO Mini Wonder Helper (N0680MVC) Head over to our Instagram to find out more about the NNIO Mini Wonder Helper Multi-Functional Vacuum Cleaner (N0680MVC) at this LINK. A Smart, Multi-Functional Cordless Vacuum for Everyday Use We recently tried the NNIO Mini Wonder Helper Multi-Functional Vacuum Cleaner (Model N0680MVC) and it’s safe to say that cleaning has become noticeably easier and more efficient. Retailing at S$267, this cordless handheld vacuum fits right into NNIO’s philosophy: minimal design, smart features, and exceptional value for money. First Impressions Compact, lightweight, and easy to assemble, the Mini Wonder Helper feels intuitive from the start. It’s designed for quick, targeted cleaning that is ideal for apartments, smaller rooms, and tight spaces. The vacuum comes with a range of handy attachments, including: A dust mite brush (perfect for sofas, beds, and upholstery) A crevice nozzle for narrow corners A blower attachment that doubles as an air duster Performance & Use Despite its ultra-lightweight build, this vacuum doesn’t compromise on power. It handles dust, crumbs, and pet hair with ease, thanks to strong suction and well-designed nozzles. We especially appreciated how effortless it was to maneuver, even around corners. The dust mite brush attachment is a standout, it’s ideal for soft furnishings like mattresses and sofas, where deeper cleaning is often overlooked. The vacuum is also cordless, staying true to NNIO’s minimalistic stance and enhancing mobility. Whether you’re cleaning the living room rug or refreshing upholstery, it handles the job quickly and comfortably. Battery Life In our usage, the vacuum provided a respectable 15–20 minutes of cleaning time on a single charge enough for light daily cleaning tasks. Charging is straightforward, and the device is easy to store. Noise & Maintenance While not whisper-quiet, the operating sound is moderate and doesn’t feel disruptive. Cleaning the unit is also simple, the dust container empties easily, and the HEPA filter ensures fine particles are well-contained. The NNIO Mini Wonder Helper (N0680MVC) lives up to its name. It’s a sleek, high-functioning cleaning companion for modern homes particularly those with limited space or multiple cleaning zones. Its multi-functional attachments and ease of use make it ideal as a secondary cleaner, or even a primary one for smaller households.

ZooSchool offers immersive programmes that blend classroom learning with hands-on exploration, drawing young learners into the world of nature, wildlife, and conservation. Designed by experienced educators from both organisations, there are sessions available for both members of the public and preschools. Ms Belina Lee, Deputy Chief Executive Officer, Transformation & Growth, Mandai Wildlife Group shared, “Mandai Wildlife Group has a proud legacy as a global pioneer in wildlife education. For over four decades, our wildlife parks have served as living classrooms, where generations of educators and children have discovered and fallen in love with the wonders of the natural world through impactful and memorable learning experiences. The launch of ZooSchool is the next big step in our evolution, offering the benefits of a fully equipped educational facility with Singapore’s wildlife parks at the heart of the learning experience. Through our partnership with NFC, we are combining our expertise with their capabilities in early childhood and outdoor learning to develop purpose-driven curriculum – one that brings learning to life at the intersection of nature, play and discovery, while igniting a lifelong passion to care for animals and nature. ” With programmes anchored in the Mandai Wildlife Reserve, ZooSchool offers a dynamic and immersive learning environment where children engage directly with nature. They will learn about animal behaviours and conservation through wildlife encounters, behind-the-scenes experiences, and interactions with veterinarians, animal care experts and sustainability advocates. By tapping into children’s natural curiosity, these programmes also focus on developing essential life skills such as teamwork, resilience, and confidence, while introducing practical survival skills like basic first aid, knot tying and navigation. Each session provides an interactive learning experience through purposeful play, creative projects, and outdoor adventures. “At NTUC First Campus, we believe there is no better way to nurture young minds than through immersive experiences that ignite curiosity, build resilience, and cultivate a lifelong love for learning and nature. Our partnership with Mandai Wildlife Group on ZooSchool deepens this commitment. With ZooSchool, nature becomes the classroom, and every encounter is a powerful teaching moment. This bold venture deepens our longstanding commitment to outdoor and inquiry-based learning, integrating conservation education, purposeful play, and the expertise of wildlife professionals to elevate what outdoor learning can achieve. It is yet another example of how NTUC First Campus nurtures generations and shapes the future, not just preparing children for school, but nurturing future stewards of our planet,” said Mr Justin Ang, Chief Executive Officer, NTUC First Campus. Complementing the outdoor learning is a 1,300-square-metre, purpose-built facility at the Mandai Wildlife Reserve. This facility features configurable, immersive indoor environments and classrooms inspired by natural ecosystems. It also has a sensory-rich multi-level outdoor playground designed to ignite imagination and support physical development through active exploration. To celebrate Singapore's 60th anniversary and the partnership between Mandai Wildlife Group and NTUC First Campus, ZooSchool is gifting every preschool in Singapore a special edition Mandai Top Trumps card game. These cards feature illustrations of animal residents of the Mandai Wildlife Reserve, offering a fun and engaging way to educate and engage players about wildlife conservation. The card game is incorporated in some of ZooSchool’s programmes, like Wild Wonders, reinforcing conservation learning through play. More information on the following programmes is available on the ZooSchool webpage: Wild Rescue Rangers Holiday Camps (ages 6 to 12): Three-day camps with survival skills, animal interactions, and conservation activities. Wild Wonders (ages 5 to 12): 2-hour adventures uncovering animal superpowers and conservation mysteries.

Presented by Base Entertainment Asia in association with The Really Useful Group and Crossroads Live, this strictly limited-season production is running from May 9 to June 22, 2025, at the Sands Theatre, Marina Bay Sands. A Timeless Tale of Love and Mystery Based on Gaston Leroux’s 1910 novel Le Fantôme de L’Opéra, the musical tells the haunting story of a mysterious, disfigured musical genius known as the Phantom who lives beneath the Paris Opera House. Obsessed with the young soprano Christine Daae, he nurtures her extraordinary talents while unleashing a reign of terror on those around them. The story explores themes of love, jealousy, and tragedy that remain compelling more than a century after its inception. A World-Class Cast and Production The Singapore production stars Ben Forster as the Phantom and Grace Roberts as Christine Daae, supported by a cast of 37 international performers from countries such as the United Kingdom, United States of America, South Africa, and Australia. Directed by Phantom Associate Director Rainer Fried, with musical supervision by Kristen Blodgette and choreography by Denny Berry, this production preserves the grandeur and emotional depth that have made Phantom one of the world’s most celebrated musicals. Visual and Musical Spectacle Renowned for its lavish set designs, intricate costumes, and unforgettable musical numbers such as “The Music of the Night” and “All I Ask of You,” the production immerses audiences in the opulence and mystery of the Paris Opera House. The iconic chandelier scene, the eerie boat ride through the Phantom’s lair, and the live orchestra’s powerful score combine to create a truly unforgettable theatrical experience. From the moment we stepped into the Sands Theatre, we were swept up in theatrical magic. Jonathan Roxmouth’s portrayal of the Phantom was both chilling and deeply emotional, a haunting presence whose vocals moved effortlessly between menace and vulnerability. Grace Roberts’ Christine was enchanting, her voice soaring beautifully and her performance capturing Christine’s innocence and inner conflict with touching subtlety. The chemistry between the leads felt natural and powerful, enhancing the emotional weight of their story. Visually, the show was breathtaking without overwhelming; the seamless transitions and immersive lighting effects, especially during the boat scene, felt cinematic yet intimate. Hearing Andrew Lloyd Webber’s timeless score performed live, backed by an outstanding orchestra, was a spine-tingling experience. The audience around us was visibly captivated, some moved to tears, a testament to the production’s lasting emotional impact. What struck us most was the timelessness of the story, a tragic tale of love, obsession, and beauty that remains relevant and moving today. This production delivers all that and more, reaffirming The Phantom of the Opera as one of musical theatre’s greatest masterpieces.

Chef Teruya began his culinary career in Oregon, USA, in 1995, and hails from Tokyo, Japan. His journey has taken him around the globe, with experiences in New York, San Diego, Italy, London, Australia, and Singapore, and aboard the Crystal Serenity cruise ship, where he worked in various locations worldwide. Inspired by watching the original Iron Chef as a child, Chef Teruya was encouraged by his mother, an exceptional home cook, to pursue a culinary path. He has had the privilege of working alongside renowned chefs, including Chef Masaharu Morimoto at NOBU New York and Chef Antonio D’Angelo at NOBU Milan. His time on the cruise ship allowed him to explore authentic cuisines from various countries, further enriching his culinary perspective. Chef Teruya shares, ‘My cooking philosophy is deeply rooted in using fresh, seasonal ingredients, precise preparation methods, and presentations that reflect nature. ’ Some of Chef Teruya’s signature dishes that exemplify this philosophy include: Corn Fran with Uni This dish celebrates the exquisite harmony of corn and sea urchin, showcasing their complementary flavours - The sweetness of the corn provides a rich, comforting base, while the briny, oceanic notes of the sea urchin add a luxurious depth. Foie Gras Terrine in Monaka Chef Teruya takes a creative twist on Japan’s traditional Monaka, which is usually filled with sweet bean paste. Drawing from his deep appreciation for culinary innovation, he replaces the sweet filling with a rich foie gras pâté. The delicate, crisp exterior of the Monaka shell contrasts beautifully with the creamy, luxurious texture of the foie gras, creating a mouthfeel with each bite. Octopus Carpaccio with White Shrimp In this dish, Chef Teruya draws from his culinary experiences in Italy to create a unique fusion that marries two beloved traditions. Octopus, a cherished ingredient in Japanese cuisine, is transformed into a delicate carpaccio, showcasing its tender texture and subtle flavour. To elevate the dish, Chef Teruya pairs the octopus with sweet, succulent white shrimp, which adds a contrast in both flavour and texture. King Salmon Sashimi Spring Roll Inspired by the delicate freshness of Vietnamese spring rolls, the thinly sliced King Salmon, known for its rich taste, is wrapped in rice paper instead of seaweed, a creative twist on traditional sushi maki. Amadai Matsukasa Yaki This is a classic seasonal fish dish that showcases the delicate flavours of amadai, a prized fish known for its tender, flaky meat and slightly sweet taste. Traditionally, this dish is simply grilled with just a sprinkle of sea salt, served alongside Hajikami, a pickled ginger that provides a refreshing contrast to the savoury richness of the grilled fish. In Chef Teruya’s innovative interpretation, he elevates this beloved classic by adding a vibrant wasabi salsa, introducing an exciting layer of complexity to the dish. Sous-vide Lobster with White Miso Americaine This dish draws deeply from the essence of crustaceans traditionally featured in miso soup, merging flavours in an exciting and innovative way. Chef Teruya begins by preparing a rich Americaine sauce, crafted from a base of crustacean stock that captures the ocean's briny essence. This sauce is then elevated with the addition of white miso, which brings a creamy texture and a subtle sweetness that complements the natural flavours of the lobster. Roasted Wagyu Sirloin with Egg Yolk Sukiyaki Sauce and Wasabi Mashed Potato This dish offers a modern take on the beloved Japanese classic, sukiyaki. Traditionally, sukiyaki consists of thinly sliced Wagyu beef braised in a sweet soy sauce, typically paired with a dipping sauce made from raw egg. Chef Teruya reimagines this cherished favourite by creating a rich sukiyaki sauce that embodies its traditional essence. To elevate the dish further, he serves it alongside wasabi mashed potatoes, adding a kick and a unique twist. With over 28 years of experience, Chef Teruya has honed his craft in prestigious kitchens, including Syun at Resorts World Sentosa and Nobu Restaurants, where he was instrumental in launching its celebrated outlets in the US and the UK. In his role at Keyaki, Chef Teruya will focus on reimagining the dining experience and enhancing Keyaki’s offerings. With his extensive expertise and passion for Japanese cuisine, he is set to introduce innovative concepts that will guide guests on an extraordinary journey through authentic Japanese culinary art.

It's finally here. The Ordinary introduces UV Filters SPF 45 Serum, sun protection that's layerable, lightweight, and white cast-free. The Ordinary launches UV Filters SPF 45 Serum - a serum-textured sunscreen offering broad-spectrum SPF 45 protection against sun damage and premature skin aging caused by sun exposure. The Ordinary has formulated an SPF product in the past - the Mineral UV Filters SPF 30 with Antioxidants. But after receiving consumer feedback regarding the mineral formula's thick texture and white cast, the brand discontinued its SPF and went back to the lab to formulate a sun protectant that its consumers will not only need but want to use daily. Introducing - finally - The Ordinary's UV Filters SPF 45 Serum, a brand new formulation providing broad-spectrum SPF protection against sun damage. Break the Chemical Bias A common question amongst consumers is the difference between mineral and chemical suncare. Essentially, both types of sunscreen formulations contain chemicals because everything is chemicals. While both chemical and mineral filters can be used in a formulation to provide great UV protection, it is harder to formulate a truly transparent, lightweight, and accessibly priced sunscreen with mineral filters alone - especially when looking to achieve a high SPF product. This time, The Ordinary has stepped away from Mineral Filters and instead, worked with a blend of FDA-approved chemical filters to formulate an affordable, lightweight, high-SPF sunscreen that feels comfortable on the skin and does not leave a white cast - one that is suitable for daily use, and that you will truly want to wear every day. Despite the usage of SPF becoming more prominent over the last decade, a study in the USA reported that among those who wear sunscreen, 18% wear it daily, 17% wear it weekly - yet the majority note that they rarely wear it (45%)1. So, this is where The Ordinary's UV Filters SPF 45 Serum comes in. It is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin - an important factor in SPF purchasing behaviour as shown by the 28% of UK consumers concerned about skin sensitivity when it comes to sunscreen products2. Why SPF 45? Contrary to popular belief, the UV filter numbers not decided by the brand that formulates the sun-protectant but rather by the formula itself. UVA constitutes over 90% of UV radiation and causes primarily indirect damage to the skin. UVA rays are more likely to cause oxidative stress which can damage skin structures and have longer-term impacts on signs of skin aging. SPF is a value that is calculated by considering the time it takes for skin to turn red when exposed to UV light - with sunscreen, versus without sunscreen. Although both UVA and UVB rays affect aging and can cause burning, they hold different weights and roles when it comes to UV exposure. UVB on the other hand, accounts for only 5% of UV radiation but is 1000x more harmful than UVA. UVB exposure is mostly responsible for the skin's inflammation (burning) & pigmentation (tanning) - which is more likely to cause damage to DNA. Tip: You can easily remember this by letting the A in UVA stand for aging, and the B in UVB stands for burning. These DNA alterations, if not properly repaired, can lead to mutations and increase the risk of skin cancer. When The Ordinary's product underwent testing, the SPF value that it achieved was SPF 45 - which is estimated to absorb only 0. 2% less UVB radiation than SPF 50. It was also found to achieve broad spectrum protection - a level of defense across both UVA and UVB rays. By providing both UVA and UVB coverage. The Ordinary's UV Filters SPF 45 Serum ultimately protects against sun damage, decreasing the risk of early skin aging caused by the sun when used as directed with other sun protection measures. UV Filters SPF 45 Serum RRP: $34 SGD SPF - A Want as Well as a Need. Not only does SPF 45 offer broad spectrum protection and decrease the risk of skin damage if used as directed with other sun protection measures. The UV Filters SPF 45 Serum also offers instant and all-day hydration support, is non- comedogenic (does not clog pores), and provides a natural-looking glow - both on its own and underneath make-up - due to it supporting the skin's natural moisture barrier. Leading with transparency and ownership over its long-awaited formulation. The Ordinary's latest launch, at last, meets consumers' SPF needs with a suncare formulation that not only offers UV protection, but a seamless addition to already established daily skincare regimens. The launch of UV Filters SPF 45 Serum aims to give consumers of all skin types a sun protectant that they can wear alongside their other skincare.

A growing body of research is validating what many eco-conscious households have long suspected—probiotic cleaning products are not only gentler on the planet but profoundly better for the people using them. Unlike traditional cleaners, which sterilize environments with harsh chemicals, probiotic cleaners work with nature—introducing live, beneficial microbes that balance and protect. Backed by science and embraced by communities with vulnerable family members—such as babies, elderly, or those with eczema—these products are transforming how we think about hygiene and health. And at the forefront of this revolution in Singapore is OOMMI, a brand that bridges gut health with home health through its powerful, natural, and transparent approach. Why Probiotic Cleaning Matters Now A 2021 study published in Viruses found that probiotic cleaners inactivate 99. 99% of tested viruses within 1–2 hours, with effects that last up to 24 hours. In hospital settings, their use has shown a 52% reduction in Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAIs), as reported in Infection and Drug Resistance. Despite this, most households and institutions still rely on petrochemical-based cleaners that may cause skin irritation, foster microbial resistance, and pollute indoor air. For Singaporeans increasingly frustrated by “greenwashed” labels and chemically intensive products, OOMMI offers a refreshing alternative—science-backed, preservative-free, and truly sustainable cleaning. We spoke with James Thong, Director of OOMMI Singapore, to explore why probiotic cleaning is here to stay, what makes it different, and how this Japanese innovation is reshaping the Singaporean home. Interview with James Thong, Director of OOMMI Singapore 1. Why are probiotics considered the future of cleaning in homes, and not just limited to use in hospitals? James Thong: Singapore hospitals are still primarily relying on chemical cleaning. However, there is an increasing awareness of the potential downsides, like the risk of creating chemical-resistant bacteria. Probiotic cleaning is seen as the future for homes because it offers a safer alternative to chemical cleaners, which are often derived from petrochemicals, which can be harsh or irritating to skin, and less eco-friendly. Probiotic cleaners are of natural origin. They are active live products with ongoing fermentation within each bottle. Every spray releases millions of beneficial live microbes. Chemicals or any toxic ingredients/ container can eliminate the live microbes, so the survivability of live microbes are a good test for toxicity. Probiotic cleaners are highly suitable for households, especially those with babies, pets, or individuals with sensitive skin. Besides easily removing grease and organic stains, the live microbes clean more deeply than chemicals by penetrating fabric surfaces or going into cracks and around adjacent corners, to ‘hunt’ and eliminate bad bacteria and odours in non-easily accessible areas. They are also effective at breaking down and removing biofilm, which is a protective layer formed by bacteria that can be difficult to eliminate with traditional cleaners. Vomit or urine odours deep inside a large mattress can be removed or drastically reduced just by dry cleaning it with a probiotic fabric spray. Every bottle of our probiotic cleaners contains plant-based food grade glycerin, which is also one of our 3 surfactants, and ‘food’ for the live microbes. Glycerin is found in most skin care products, and they moisturise and heal the skin. While chemical cleaning has a limited safety window of a few hours, probiotic cleaners can remain effective for days, as the live microbes live on to continue cleaning and protect. Many customers have commented that the mopped floor surfaces on day 2 are as clean as, if not better than, day 2. How can probiotic cleaning significantly reduce the pathogen burden on surfaces, and what role does it play in eliminating resistant bacterial strains? James Thong: The probiotic cleaners, with its 3 surfactants (probiotics, glycerin and natural foam) can clean away pathogens as well as other cleaners in the market. In addition, the millions of live microbes in every spray will hunt and eliminate bad bacteria (their natural enemies) with a much larger ‘army’ and continue to clean, protect against ‘regrouping’ of bad bacteria and viruses for days. They will also break down and ‘feed’ on yeast, fungus, biofilm and organic wastes to survive longer. That makes it harder for the bad stuff to replicate. In the few hours and days after application, the live microbes are very active, spreading across surfaces, even deep into fabrics, and continuing to clean long after a traditional product would’ve stopped working. This longer-lasting effect means people don’t have to keep reapplying, which is especially helpful in areas like bedding, fabric upholstery, floor surfaces, kitchen, or pet spaces. 3. How does OOMMI bridge the concept of gut health with home health through its probiotic cleaning approach? James Thong: OOMMI Probiotics bridges gut and home health by offering both probiotic cleaning products (for surfaces) and probiotic supplements (for human consumption). While the cleaning products are not meant for ingestion, the company also produces a separate, human supplement prebiotic + probiotic + multivitamin beverage powder (PREPRO) that is formulated for pregnant mummies (and suitable for all ages above 1 year old). This approach emphasizes the importance of beneficial microbes both inside the body (gut health) and in the living environment (home health), promoting overall well-being through microbial balance. For those suffering from sensitive skin or eczema, they can take the PREPRO as a daily all-in-one supplement to minimise skin flare-ups, and use our probiotic cleaning products to moisturise and reduce skin inflammation. 4. How does OOMMI ensure transparency in its product offerings, and what does true label transparency look like to you? James Thong: We stand out because our products are preservative-free and alive with ongoing fermenting in the bottle.

On 17 April, the iconic Orchard Road mall will be transformed into a vibrant sanctuary where creativity meets tranquility. Shoppers can look forward to immersive installations, hands-on workshops, wellness activities, and the chance to purchase unique art pieces — all in support of mental health awareness. At the heart of Spring Soiree are meaningful collaborations with celebrated local artists whose installations and workshops explore the healing power of creativity. As part of its anniversary celebrations, Paragon is giving back with purpose - with proceeds from the activities going towards supporting mental health initiatives by the Yeo Boon Khim Mind Science Centre, a research centre under National University of Singapore and National University Health System focused on preventive care and mental health awareness. "Spring is all about fresh beginnings, and with Spring Soiree, we wanted to spark that sense of renewal — through immersive art, mindful practices, and thoughtful design. As we celebrate Paragon’s 25th anniversary, this celebration is our way of giving back to our community with purpose and intention, while spotlighting wellness as a pillar of modern luxury. This is just the beginning – visitors can look forward to a year filled with meaningful celebrations to mark this milestone," says Jaylyn Ong, Managing Director, Straits Retail Property Management Services Pte Ltd. Art, Nature and Wellness – Highlights of Spring Soiree The Spring Soiree features several installations capturing the artistry of nature. Blooming Windmill by Singaporean Artist Pei Li. At the outdoor foyer of Paragon, visitors are greeted by a breathtaking floral installation created in collaboration with celebrated Singaporean artiste Pei Li of PeiPer. This striking masterpiece captures the essence of movement and renewal, as Pei Li artfully transforms paper, foam, metal, and mixed media into exquisite, larger-than-life blooms that echo the delicate beauty of nature. Towering at 4. 5 metres, the windmill-inspired floral installation features seven unique flowers – each a symbol of hope, resilience, and nature’s uplifting energy. A vibrant tribute to transformation, the installation evokes the joy, vitality and playful elegance of Spring in full bloom. “Nature is my quiet space, where birdsong, the hum of insects, and the stillness reset me. What I observed out there reflects in my art. I’m thrilled to be partnering with Paragon for this meaningful Spring Soiree, a beautiful blend of art and nature in support of mental wellness. My hope is that my pieces offer a pause for peace and contribute meaningfully to the important work of Yeo Boon Khim Science Centre,” shares Pei Li of Pei Per. Pei Li’s artistry continues inside the mall with a tranquil extension of her outdoor display. Titled Morning Breeze: Quiet Moments, this installation features three 1. 8 meters blooms – Cornflower, Echinacea, and Baby’s Breath – each meticulously handcrafted from paper, foam, and clay to capture the delicate intricacies of nature. A harmonious blend of organic beauty and masterful craftsmanship, the display invites visitors to pause, reflect, and reconnect with nature, offering a tranquil space that promotes mental wellness through the transformative power of art. A Botanical Escape by Mosscape (17 April to 12 May) Guests are invited to discover a botanical escape at Paragon’s main atrium on level one – where nature meets wellness. This lush garden installation blends vibrant foliage, sculptural floral design and calming natural textures to create a perfect escape amidst the buzz of Orchard Road. Designed by award-winning Project Director Andy Eng of Mosscape (Nyee Phoe Flower Garden), the space channels the growing movement towards mindful living – inviting shoppers to pause, recharge and immerse themselves in mindful experiences. “In celebration of Paragon’s 25th anniversary, Mosscape is proud to collaborate with the iconic shopping destination to create an immersive garden retreat within its atrium,” said Andy Eng, Project Director of Mosscape (Nyee Phoe Flower Garden). “This partnership blends Paragon’s legacy of luxury and refinement with Mosscape’s expertise in biophilic design, offering shoppers and visitors a serene sanctuary amid the vibrant energy of Orchard Road. ” In addition, exclusive Moss Art pieces created in collaboration with Mosscape and PeiPer are available for purchase, with 100% of proceeds going towards supporting programmes by the Yeo Boon Khim Mind Science Centre. Ikebana Exhibition (16 to 25 May) Come May, floral artistry takes center stage as 36 renowned Ikebana designers come together to present a stunning installation themed “Ikebana and You. ” This immersive showcase highlights the profound connection between Ikebana – the traditional Japanese art of floral arrangement – and personal well-being. Rooted in harmony, balance, and mindfulness, Ikebana is more than an aesthetic pursuit; it is a meditative practice that cultivates inner peace and resilience. Through the thoughtful arrangement of flowers and natural elements, this installation highlights how the “way of flowers” fosters mindfulness, creativity, and mental wellbeing. Wellness and Creative Workshops for a Cause Beyond the installations, visitors can also participate in a curated line-up of experiences designed to inspire creativity and promote holistic well-being. From hands-on workshops by PeiPer and Mosscape, to sweet moments with Venchi and more, the offerings promise something for every interest.

Young children’s skin also requires extra care to maintain its natural barrier and prevent common issues such as eczema, diaper rash, and sunburn. Establishing a proper skincare routine from an early age helps keep their skin soft, healthy, and protected. 1. Gentle Bathing Practices Bathing is an essential part of a child’s hygiene routine, but over-washing can strip their skin of natural oils, leading to dryness. Babies do not need daily baths—two to three times a week is sufficient unless they get particularly dirty. Use lukewarm water, as hot water can be harsh on the skin. Choose mild, fragrance-free cleansers instead of regular soaps, which may contain drying agents. Keep bath time short, around 5-10 minutes, to prevent excessive moisture loss. Pat the skin gently with a soft towel instead of rubbing. For young children, bath time can be extended, but ensure their skin is moisturized afterward to prevent dryness. 2. Keeping Skin Hydrated with Moisturizer A baby’s skin loses moisture quickly, making hydration essential. After every bath, apply a mild fragrance-free, hypoallergenic moisturizer to keep their skin soft and prevent dryness or irritation. Apply moisturizer while the skin is still slightly damp to lock in moisture. Pay extra attention to areas prone to dryness, such as the cheeks, elbows, and knees. If your child has sensitive skin, opt for lightweight, non-greasy formulations that absorb easily. For older toddlers, continue applying lotion daily, especially if they are frequently exposed to air conditioning, cold weather, or dry climates. 3. Preventing and Treating Diaper Rash Diaper rash is common in babies due to prolonged exposure to moisture and friction. To prevent it: Change diapers frequently and allow the skin to dry completely before putting on a new one. Use gentle wipes or rinse with lukewarm water instead of wipes with alcohol or fragrance. Let the baby go diaper-free for short periods to allow the skin to breathe. Apply a barrier cream with zinc oxide to protect the skin from irritation. If a diaper rash develops, keep the area clean and dry, and avoid tight diapers that may worsen irritation. 4. Protecting Baby’s Skin from the Sun Babies and young children have thinner skin that is more vulnerable to sun damage. Sun exposure can cause sunburn, premature aging, and long-term skin sensitivity. Keep babies under six months out of direct sunlight, opting for shade instead. Dress children in lightweight, breathable clothing with long sleeves and pants. Use a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses to protect their face and eyes. For children over six months, apply a child-safe, broad-spectrum sunscreen to exposed areas. Avoid peak sun hours (10 AM to 4 PM) when UV rays are strongest. 5. Choosing Gentle, Chemical-Free Skincare Products A baby’s skin is highly absorbent, making it crucial to select gentle, non-toxic products. Avoid: Artificial fragrances and dyes, which can cause irritation. Harsh detergents in laundry soaps, which may trigger skin reactions. Products with parabens, sulfates, and alcohol, as they can disrupt the skin’s natural barrier. Opt for baby-friendly products with minimal, natural ingredients that provide hydration without unnecessary additives. 6. Managing Common Skin Conditions Eczema: If your baby has eczema-prone skin, keep it moisturized and avoid harsh soaps. If needed, consult a doctor for proper treatment. Cradle Cap: This harmless scalp condition appears as flaky, dry patches. Gently massage a mild oil onto the scalp before washing with a soft baby brush. Heat Rash: Occurs due to sweat trapped in skin folds. Keep your baby cool, dress them in loose cotton clothing, and avoid excessive sweating. 7. Monitoring Skin Health Regularly check for signs of irritation, rashes, or unusual skin changes. If your baby develops persistent redness, peeling, or swelling, it may be a sign of an allergic reaction or an underlying condition that requires medical attention. By following these skincare guidelines, you can help keep your baby’s and young child’s skin healthy, soft, and well-nourished while minimizing common skin problems.

Today, NEON and Universal Live Entertainment announced that Jurassic World: The Experience will open at the cooled conservatory of the iconic Singapore attraction in on 29 May 2025. Life-sized animatronic and sculpted dinosaurs nestled amidst the lush foliage of Cloud Forest bring the cinematic wonder of the Jurassic World film franchise from Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment to life. There will be various exciting zones for visitors to explore with highlights such as: • The breathtaking majesty of an 8. 5m tall Brachiosaurus – almost three stories high - that will greet visitors when they enter Cloud Forest • A thrilling encounter with the terrifying Tyrannosaurus rex • A face-to-face interaction with baby dinosaurs in the Petting Zoo area • Discover tiny and elusive Composognathus, “Compys” hidden within lush garden pathways The Cloud Forest at Gardens by the Bay replicates the cool-moist climate found in Tropical Montane regions in the world, between 1,000m and 3,500m above sea level. More than 72,000 plants thrive in Cloud Forest, with more than 50 species with lineages that can be traced back to the Jurassic period, such as ferns, cycads and conifers. These plants once thrived alongside dinosaurs and even served as food for them. Visitors will learn more about how these plants continue to thrive today and understand the intricate connections between past and present ecosystems. An experience exclusive to Cloud Forest is Evolution Walk, where visitors can venture back to a time before the age of dinosaurs, to learn about ancient plant species that existed long before the emergence of those that bear flowers. Evolution Walk features reconstructions of ancient plants that have become extinct, in an eye-opening showcase of how plants have evolved. Fans of the blockbuster films of the Jurassic World franchise will be especially thrilled when they spot iconic moments from the series brought to life through cutting-edge animatronics and interactive exhibits. This is the closest that they will ever come to living dinosaurs! “We are thrilled to bring Jurassic World: The Experience to the Cloud Forest, one of the most iconic venues here in Singapore,” said Mr. Ron Tan, Executive Chairman & Group CEO of NEON. “In collaboration with Universal Live Entertainment, Gardens by the Bay, and our valued partners, this world-class experience exemplifies NEON’s commitment to delivering immersive and innovative experiential entertainment that captivate audiences of all ages. The seamless integration of cinematic storytelling with the natural beauty of Cloud Forest creates a truly unique and memorable journey for all visitors. We look forward to welcoming fans and friends from Singapore and beyond to step into the world of Jurassic and engage with this extraordinary experience in a truly iconic setting. ” Mr. Felix Loh, CEO of Gardens by the Bay said, “Following the highly successful Avatar: The Experience in 2023, Cloud Forest will once again play host to another immersive blockbuster show as part of Gardens by the Bay’s SG60 offerings. Besides life-sized dinosaurs roaming the mist-shrouded landscape, which will captivate visitors of all ages, what sets Gardens by the Bay’s edition apart is a world-first educational showcase. Here, visitors will learn how prehistoric ecosystems once shaped our planet within the setting of a Cloud Forest, and the fascinating way plants have evolved through millions of years from the Jurassic period. ” For the latest updates, please visit JurassicWorldExperience. sg. --- - Published: 2025-03-28 - Modified: 2025-03-28 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/breaking-barriers-how-women-leaders-at-far-east-hospitality-are-shaping-the-industry-interviews-with-jasmine-neo-area-director-of-sales-marketing-village-cluster-and-sherlene-wong-area-genera/ - Categories: INTERVIEW - Tags: Area Director of Sales & Marketing, Area General Manager, Far East Hospitality, FEH, International Women’s Day, Jasmine Neo, Rendezvous Cluster., Sherlene Wong, Village Cluster As the landscape of career transitions evolves, more professionals are seizing new opportunities to reshape their career paths. In Singapore, mid-career transitions have become a significant aspect of the workforce, with government initiatives like SkillsFuture playing a crucial role in supporting individuals to upskill and reskill. At Far East Hospitality (FEH), women have been leading the charge in this movement, breaking barriers and advancing into leadership roles. In 2023, Singapore emerged as a frontrunner in gender representation in leadership, with women occupying 42% of leadership positions. This marks a positive shift towards greater female leadership, and the ongoing conversation around this progress continues to build momentum as we work towards greater gender parity and increased representation. In celebration of International Women’s Day, we spoke to two inspiring leaders at FEH—Jasmine Neo, Area Director of Sales & Marketing, Village Cluster, and Sherlene Wong, Area General Manager, Rendezvous Cluster. Their journeys reflect resilience, passion, and the company’s commitment to empowering women in the hospitality industry. Jasmine with her team Ms. Jasmine Neo started her career in Sales and Marketing at Far East Hospitality in 2014. Through her expertise and dedication, she advanced to lead a cluster of hotels. Today, she continues to drive strategic growth for the company as a director. Read our interview with Jasmine to find out more. Interview with Jasmine Neo, Area Director of Sales & Marketing, Village Cluster Q: What inspired you to pursue a career in hospitality, and what has kept you motivated over the years? Jasmine: I’ve been passionate about hospitality since I was young. There’s something incredibly fulfilling about creating meaningful experiences for guests and making them feel valued. Seeing familiar faces return to our hotels, knowing that we’ve made a lasting impression, keeps me going. To me, hospitality is more than just providing accommodation—it’s about creating a home away from home. The drive to elevate each guest’s experience and exceed expectations is what fuels my passion for hospitality. Q: What were some of the biggest challenges you faced in your leadership journey and how did you overcome them? Jasmine: Leading in hospitality means balancing evolving market trends, operational hurdles, and managing diverse teams. One of my biggest challenges was finding the balance between strategic decision-making and empathetic leadership—ensuring both business growth and a motivated team. I overcame this by actively listening, staying adaptable, and leading with a people-first mindset. Resilience and the ability to embrace change have been key to overcoming obstacles and staying focused on what makes hospitality so special—human connection. Q: How has Far East Hospitality supported your career growth and leadership development? Jasmine: FEH fosters a culture of continuous learning and empowerment, which has played a crucial role in my career. Through mentorship programs, cross-functional collaborations, and leadership opportunities, I’ve been able to develop my skills and expand my perspective. Most importantly, I’ve always felt supported in bringing fresh ideas to the table and making an impact. That level of trust and encouragement has been invaluable in shaping the way I lead. Jasmine with her family Q: What advice would you give to women looking to advance their careers as leaders in the hospitality industry? Jasmine: Believing in yourself is the first step to growth. Take initiative and don’t shy away from opportunities just because they seem daunting. The hospitality industry is constantly evolving, and success comes from experience, resilience, and a willingness to adapt. Surrounding yourself with mentors and peers who uplift and challenge you will help you grow, but at the end of the day, owning your voice and trusting your instincts is what will set you apart. Your ideas and contributions matter, and leadership is about stepping forward with confidence. Embrace every opportunity, learn from every experience, and never stop striving to be better. Q: What’s one piece of advice you received from a strong woman figure in your life which you’d like to share with others today? Jasmine: I was once told: “Always trust yourself—your only true competitor in life is yourself. ” It’s easy to compare yourself to others, but real growth comes from focusing on your own journey. Stay true to your goals, trust your instincts, and always strive to be better than you were yesterday. Sherlene with her team Interview with Sherlene Wong, Area General Manager, Rendezvous Cluster Ms. Sherlene Wong joined Far East Hospitality in 2005 in Sales and Marketing. Embracing a transition to Operations, she gained valuable hands-on experience. After honing her leadership skills as a Hotel Manager, she now serves as Area General Manager, overseeing a cluster of hotels. Read our interview with Sherlene to find out more. Q: What inspired you to pursue a career in hospitality, and what has kept you motivated over the years? Sherlene: My love for culture, travel, and human connections drew me to hospitality. This industry allows us to engage with guests from diverse backgrounds, fostering cross-cultural understanding and, in many ways, teaching us about humanity. I thrive in the fast-paced, ever-evolving nature of hospitality, where creativity has no boundaries. But what truly motivates me? The people. I love working with people, and throughout my career, my colleagues, mentors, and team members have been a constant source of inspiration and encouragement. Q: What were some of the biggest challenges you faced in your leadership journey and how did you overcome them? Sherlene: Leadership comes with its fair share of challenges—manpower constraints, conflict resolution, leading change, and even moments of burnout. At times, I’ve had to lean on my faith to find strength. One of the most valuable lessons I’ve learned is that support systems matter—from mentors who provide guidance to team members who stand by you. Building strong relationships and having a resilient mindset have helped me navigate these challenges over the years.

While technology offers many benefits, excessive screen time can negatively impact their physical health, mental well-being, and social development. Finding the right balance is crucial. Here are seven expert-backed tips to help parents manage their children’s device usage effectively. 1. Set Clear Screen Time Limits Establish daily or weekly screen time limits based on your child’s age and needs. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends no more than one hour of high-quality programming per day for children aged 2 to 5, and consistent limits for older children. Use parental control apps or built-in screen time settings on devices to help enforce these boundaries. 2. Encourage Screen-Free Zones and Activities Designate specific areas in your home, such as the dining table and bedrooms, as screen-free zones. Encourage alternative activities like outdoor play, reading, or family board games to help children develop hobbies outside of screens. 3. Lead by Example Children mimic their parents’ behaviors. If you spend hours scrolling on your phone or watching TV, they are likely to do the same. Set a positive example by limiting your own screen time and prioritising real-world interactions. 4. Implement the 20-20-20 Rule To protect your child’s eye health, introduce the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes of screen time, they should take a 20-second break and look at something 20 feet away. This helps reduce eye strain and improves focus. 5. Use Screen Time as a Reward, Not a Routine Instead of allowing unlimited access, use screen time as a privilege earned through good behavior, completed homework, or chores. This reinforces discipline and ensures that screen time does not become a default activity. 6. Prioritise Educational and Interactive Content Not all screen time is created equal. Encourage the use of educational apps, documentaries, and creative platforms like coding programs or digital art tools. Co-viewing content with your child also helps improve engagement and learning. 7. Foster Open Communication About Online Safety Teach your children about online risks, including cyberbullying, privacy concerns, and harmful content. Establish open dialogue so they feel comfortable discussing their digital experiences with you. Balancing screen time is about moderation, not elimination. By setting boundaries, encouraging alternative activities, and staying actively involved in your child’s digital life, you can create a healthy tech environment at home. Start implementing these tips today to raise well-rounded, screen-smart kids! --- - Published: 2025-03-25 - Modified: 2025-03-25 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/experience-singapores-first-cave-dining-at-cavern-restaurant-by-tunglok-group/ - Categories: DINING - Tags: Cave, Cave Dining, Cavern Restaurant, Rainforest Wild ASIA, Sarawak’s UNESCO-listed Mulu Caves, TungLok Group, 隐石 Dine beneath stunning crystalline lights at Cavern Restaurant (隐石), Singapore’s first and only dining establishment set within a cave has opened.

As a key component of the Greater Sentosa Master Plan, Sentosa Sensoryscape has successfully redefined visitor experiences, increasing dwell time on the island by an hour since its soft launch last year. The 30,000-square-metre green connector, linking Resorts World Sentosa to Sentosa’s beaches, provides a multi-sensory experience that blends nature, design, and technology into an immersive journey. Sensoryscape is home to more than 200 species of trees and shrubs, enriching the experience with lush greenery and natural beauty. Its nighttime spectacle, ImagiNite, remains a standout feature, being the first outdoor "phygital" experience in Southeast Asia, incorporating Augmented Reality (AR) to transform the landscape after dark. By enhancing Sentosa’s after-dark appeal, Sensoryscape has successfully positioned the island as a day-to-night destination for both locals and tourists. Introducing Senseri – The New AR Feature Enhancing ImagiNite Senseri taking flight over Scented Sphere In conjunction with this milestone anniversary, SDC has launched Senseri, a new AR feature that further elevates the ImagiNite experience. Inspired by Sentosa’s peacocks and the island’s spirit, Senseri is a mystical superbeing that takes flight across Sensoryscape’s night sky through the ImagiNite app. The name “Senseri” is derived from "Sen," linking it to Sentosa, and "seri," meaning "radiance" in Malay. This addition strengthens the fusion of tangible and virtual reality, enhancing the magical nighttime ambiance of Sensoryscape. A Special Media Event with a Bespoke Soundscape by August Lum To further commemorate the occasion, SDC hosted a media event featuring a live symphony showcase by renowned composer August Lum and a 16-piece orchestra. Lum’s bespoke soundscape, composed specifically for Sensoryscape, plays during the day to create a distinct day-to-night experience for visitors. The evocative soundtrack, carefully designed to harmonise with the lush surroundings and cascading water, gently immerses guests in a tranquil and sensory journey. Please head onto our Instagram to see more photos and video at this LINK. OPW Media: Conversation with August Lum on the inspiration behind the design thinking of Sentosa Sensoryscape’s soundscape Speaking on the inspiration behind the Sentosa Sensoryscape’s soundscape, August Lum shared: “Prior to the beginning of composition, Regina from Sentosa Development Corporation and I established some objectives and boundaries for the compositions making up Sensoryscape’s soundscape. The music ought to express different emotions – to make the audience feel different emotions – yet cannot be too heavy-handed, or too negative, or too experimental to the point of alienating people. The music is ‘sensory’ in the way that it takes one on a journey, it does not attempt to be a piece of wallpaper. So if you listen to the music, you’d find pleasant melodies and interesting instrumental textures and conversations. Even if one doesn’t pay close attention to it, one can generally feel a relaxed vibe in the space, and this vibe comes with the sound of falling water and lush greenery and warm and relaxing colours. ” He further emphasised that “Sensoryscape is a world of its own despite being located in a very public space between an integrated resort complex and a tropical beach. The soundtrack has been written with the purpose of taking one into another ‘space. ’” Lum’s compositions include pieces inspired by Sentosa’s iconic elements, such as Cable Car, Monorail, and Carillon where he shared more insights into his compositions with us as follows: Cable Car – it depicts the experience of being floating and gliding slowly and silently. I always find that a ropeway / gondola provides a ride that cannot be similarly experienced by other forms of transportation that are able to hover or elevate. Monorail – I always recall a ride on the old monorail that traversed around the island. Part of the music was inspired by the background music that accompanied the onboard commentary. Another part of it came from the relaxing and warm experience it offered, as well as the “tropical” nature of its route (passing through tropical-inspired attractions and landscapes, from the forest to the beach – it was not air-conditioned, and the doors were windowless, so one felt part of the locale that the train went past, and one certainly felt the heat and was reminded of being on a sunny, tropical island that wasn’t anything sterile like the mainland (leaving mainland Singapore for one of the outlying islands was kind-of considered “going abroad”). Carillon – inspired by the carillon bells that used to stand at the furthest end of Merlion Walk (next to iFly Singapore). On my visits to Sentosa, I would sometimes make a point to be there on the hour just to listen to it chime. I have always loved the sound of bells and carillons because they can be made to sound harmonious, yet there is a slightly off-pitch quality which makes them sound natural and quaint. So, this piece was originally intended to be a “concerto” for the carillon of sorts. Artistic Collaboration and Community Initiatives Event attendees at the media event were also the first to view the new Sensoryscape Word Block, designed by local artist, JOOheng Tan. Tan is also the designer for the iconic Siloso Word Block on Siloso Beach, which has become synonymous with Sentosa’s unique beachside charm. Sensoryscape continues to evolve as a dynamic programming and experiential space, collaborating with local artists, creative minds, and interest groups to foster community engagement. Past initiatives include illuminating the precinct in yellow and purple for the #ShineforDementia campaign and hosting the vibrant “18 Blessings in Bloom” floral installation for Chinese New Year. Looking ahead, Sensoryscape will play a key role in major events such as WWF Earth Hour 2025 Festival and Sentosa Cares Week later this year. Visiting Sentosa Sensoryscape Sentosa Sensoryscape is open to the public daily, with the ImagiNite experience available nightly from 7:30 PM to 9:15 PM. As part of its anniversary celebrations, complimentary island admission will be available from 15 to 23... --- - Published: 2025-03-14 - Modified: 2025-03-14 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/armenian-street-party-peranakan-stars/ - Categories: EVENTS - Tags: Armenian Street Party: Peranakan Stars, Emerald Hill, Mediacorp Pte Ltd, Peranakan, Peranakan Association Singapore, Peranakan culture, Peranakan Indian (Chitty Melaka) Association Singapore, Peranakan Museum, Peranakan Stars, the Arab Network @ Singapore Get ready for a weekend of star power at the Armenian Street Party as beloved Peranakan culture takes centre stage in a showcase of art, fashion, exciting performances, culinary delights, and more.

This milestone event has brought together families, loyal customers, and pizza lovers for an afternoon of fun, food, and festivities. Fidelis Gourmet’s Growth and Achievements Since taking over PizzaExpress Singapore, Fidelis Gourmet has significantly expanded the brand’s presence, opening two new locations; Star Vista and Millenia Walk. The brand has actively participated in Singapore’s biggest events including the F1 Grand Prix, and launched the PizzaExpress Club in 2022, which now boasts nearly 10,000 members. As a testament to its strong customer focus, PizzaExpress ranked 9th in the 2024/2025 edition of “Singapore’s Best Customer Service” survey by The Straits Times and global data firm Statista – becoming the first pizzeria to earn this accolade. Further demonstrating its commitment to innovation and culinary excellence, PizzaExpress Singapore introduced a limited-time-only Laksa Pizza – a bold and creative fusion that captured the hearts (and taste buds) of customers. This unique creation showcased the brand’s dedication to pushing the boundaries of traditional pizza while celebrating Singapore’s vibrant flavours and food culture. Strengthening Family-Centric Offerings To grow the brand and deepen its family appeal, Lee Li Ping, founder of Sogurt, was brought in as Director of Brand and Business Development in June 2024 to front the brand’s efforts to showcase its dedication to creating special experiences for families. Through strategic partnerships and enhanced family offerings, initiatives like the ‘Kids Eat Free’ privilege for paid members have strengthened loyalty, making PizzaExpress a go-to destination for family dining and kids’ pizza-making parties, which now run almost every weekend. A Fun-Filled 60th Birthday Celebration To commemorate six decades of bringing people together over pizza, PizzaExpress Singapore planned an exciting line-up of activities for its birthday celebration. Families looked forward to a special ‘PE60’ feast, DIY pizza kits, a doughball tower, a Sogurt live-station, and peripheral activities like interactive photo opportunities by @TheBalloonPeople, face-painting, balloon sculpting by @BryanBalloon, and a bouncy castle. The event culminated in a special PizzaExpress-themed cake-cutting ceremony created by @TwentyGrammesBakes. Supporting Healthier Family Mealtimes PizzaExpress Singapore’s first quarterly campaign aligns with the government’s latest initiative to encourage mindful interaction and bonding among families, particularly during meals. The Grow Well SG initiative – led by the Health, Education, and Social and Family Development ministries – aims to promote healthier lifestyles among children and adolescents by focusing on better eating, sleeping, exercising, and bonding habits. One of the Ministry of Health’s (MOH) new guidelines includes a ‘no screens during meals’ rule for children 12 years and under. Partnering with Focus on the Family Singapore As part of its commitment to meaningful family interactions, PizzaExpress Singapore is collaborating with local charity, Focus on the Family Singapore, for the upcoming year with a variety of initiatives. Specially for the ‘PE60’ birthday event, guide cards will be included in the DIY pizza kits to help parents spark fun and engaging conversations with their children while making their pizzas. From discussing their favourite toppings to sharing stories about their (pizza) design inspiration, the activity fosters connection over food. Special Promotions for March To extend the celebrations and coincide with the March school holidays, PizzaExpress Singapore will offer an extended ‘Kids Eat Free’ promotion for all diners from 15 to 31 March 2025. Additionally, exclusive birthday month menu items – including ‘Flaming Doughballs’ and ‘Queen Margherita’ – will be available from 17 to 27 March 2025. Lee Liping, Co-owner at Fidelis Gourmet, shared, “At PizzaExpress Singapore, we believe that mealtimes should be more than just eating – they’re about bringing families together! That’s why we create a dining experience where kids stay engaged, and parents can truly enjoy quality time with them. From activity sheets and DIY pizza kits to our kids’ Piccolo Menu ($14. 90 for three courses and a drink), we make sure that little ones have fun without needing screens. Our kids’ pizza-making parties are always a hit, and with our PizzaExpress Club membership, families can enjoy ‘Kids Eat Free’ all year round! For us, it’s not just about great food – it’s about creating moments that matter. ” For more information about PizzaExpress Singapore, please visit https://www. pizzaexpress. sg. --- - Published: 2025-03-10 - Modified: 2025-03-10 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/rev-up-your-engines-the-lego-group-and-formula-1-launch-brand-new-lego-f1-sets/ - Categories: EVENTS, PARENTING/EDUCATION - Tags: F1, FORMULA 1, LEGO, LEGO® F1® sets, LEGO® Group The LEGO Group and Formula 1® are shifting into high gear with the unveiling of a dynamic new lineup of LEGO F1® sets that will be available globally from 1 March 2025!

E. A. Aquarium has been more than just a world-class marine attraction for the past 12 years, it has been a hub for ocean conservation, education, and meaningful engagement with marine life. From nurturing endangered species and hosting global research and conversation conferences to organising impactful beach clean-ups, the aquarium has continually created meaningful opportunities that connect people with the wonders of the ocean. Please head onto our Instagram to see more photos/videos at this LINK. As it embarks on an exciting new journey to transform into the Singapore Oceanarium, the aquarium is commemorating its incredible legacy with a special anniversary campaign, 12 Years of Creating Wonder, running from 8 March to 30 April 2025. Celebrate 12 Years of Marine Wonder with Special Discovery Zones Over the years, S. E. A. Aquarium has strengthened its commitment to marine education, conservation, and research, inspiring countless visitors to appreciate and protect the ocean. To commemorate this milestone, guests can explore our specially curated zones, each highlighting a different aspect of the aquarium’s impact. Wall of Fame: Honoring Milestones Visitors can walk through the Wall of Fame, showcasing S. E. A. Aquarium’s record-breaking achievements, including its Guinness World Record as the world’s largest aquarium to the launch of the Aquarist Lab – an aquatic nursery where juvenile Sea Jellies, Seahorses, Clownfish, and more are grown and nurtured. The aquarium has also played a key role in rehabilitating rescued Sea Turtles, creating a conducive environment for the miracle births of two baby Zebra Sharks (born without a male shark), and the launch of the Children’s Biodiversity Library by S. E. A. Aquarium, as part of a partnership with the National Library Board – where children can learn and be inspired by marine biodiversity. Treasures of Curios: Conservation & Research Highlights The Treasures of Curios zone offers a closer look about the key events in S. E. A. Aquarium’s ongoing efforts in research and conservation. Among them is a successful breeding programme of the critically endangered Bowmouth Guitarfish and S. E. A.

Though both are designed to reduce signs of aging and enhance your appearance, they work in different ways. Let’s explore the differences between Botox and facial fillers so you can make an informed choice for your beauty needs. What Is Botox? Botox is a brand name for botulinum toxin, a substance that temporarily relaxes muscles. When Botox is injected into targeted facial muscles, it blocks nerve signals, stopping the muscles from contracting. This results in smoother skin and reduced wrinkles, particularly in areas like the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes. The main use of Botox is to treat dynamic wrinkles. These are wrinkles that form due to repeated facial expressions, like frowning or squinting. Botox works by stopping the movement of these muscles - it smooths out the skin and reduces the appearance of wrinkles. The results typically last for 3 to 6 months. What Are Facial Fillers? Facial fillers, also known as dermal fillers, are substances injected under the skin to restore volume and smooth out wrinkles. Unlike Botox, which targets muscle movement, fillers are designed to replace lost volume in areas that have thinned with age. Common areas for facial fillers include the cheeks, under the eyes, nasolabial folds (smile lines), and lips. Fillers are often made from hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the skin that attracts moisture. Some fillers may also contain calcium hydroxyapatite or poly-L-lactic acid. The main purpose of facial fillers is to add fullness to the face. They reduce the appearance of static wrinkles—those that remain even when your face is at rest. The results of facial fillers can last from 6 months to 2 years, depending on the type of filler used and the area treated. How Do Botox and Facial Fillers Differ? The primary difference between botulinum toxin and facial fillers is the way they work. Botox targets muscle movement to prevent the formation of dynamic wrinkles. Facial fillers, on the other hand, restore lost volume to areas that have developed static wrinkles. Another key difference is the areas they treat. Botox is most effective in areas where muscle movement causes wrinkles, such as the forehead, around the eyes, and between the eyebrows. Fillers are better suited for areas that have lost volume, such as the cheeks, under the eyes, or lips. Botox works by relaxing the muscles beneath the skin, while facial fillers add volume and fullness to the skin itself. Which Treatment Is Right for You? Choosing between Botox and facial fillers depends on the type of wrinkles you want to treat. If you are looking to smooth out wrinkles caused by facial expressions, Botox may be the best option for you. If you want to add volume to areas like your cheeks or lips, facial fillers are a better choice. In some cases, a combination of both treatments can provide the best results. Many people choose to get Botox for their forehead and crow’s feet while using fillers to add volume to their cheeks or plump their lips. Conclusion Botox and facial fillers are both effective treatments for reducing the signs of aging, but they work in different ways. Botox relaxes the muscles to prevent dynamic wrinkles, while fillers restore volume to areas with static wrinkles. When deciding between the two, think about the areas you want to treat and the results you’re hoping for. Consulting with a qualified professional can help you determine the best approach to achieve your beauty goals. --- - Published: 2025-02-23 - Modified: 2025-02-23 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/construction-in-every-corner-presented-by-the-ntu-museum-opens-its-doors-to-the-public/ - Categories: EVENTS - Tags: Construction in Every Corner, Exhibition, NTU, NTU Museum The experience of existing amidst perpetual renewal Exhibition Overview The Construction in Every Corner exhibition presented by the NTU Museum opens its doors to the public till 17 April 2025.

Over the next three weeks, a diverse group of visitors – from the Friends of Wildlife community to educators and beneficiary groups – will take to Singapore’s fifth zoological park at the Mandai Wildlife Reserve as part of a preview, in the lead-up to its official public opening on 12 March 2025. Tickets for the new wildlife park are on sale now! Look out for the Majestic Malayan tigers, strategically located viewing spots along the elevated walkway or suspension bridge may offer unexpected wildlife sightings. Explore the immersive park and see first-hand how different animals thrive in the distinct layers of the rainforests. Photo credit: Mandai Wildlife Group “There are three unique dimensions to Rainforest Wild Asia. First, we present highly immersive flexible habitats featuring key Southeast Asia species. We live in one of the world’s most biodiverse regions, but many of the region’s species are under threat due to the loss of wild habitats and the negative impact of pollution. With the belief that you can’t protect what you don’t know, we want to raise awareness about the region’s incredible wildlife species by shining a spotlight on them in this park,” said Mike Barclay, Group CEO of Mandai Wildlife Group. “Second, we encourage our guests to experience a rainforest up in the tree canopy, down on the forest floor and below the ground through stunningly re-produced cave chambers that the Mulu Caves have inspired in Sarawak. And third, we encourage visitors to tailor their adventurous outing in Rainforest Wild Asia, from guided offerings for adrenaline seekers to exciting forest treks, or the extensive network of universally designed elevated walkways that cater to people with diverse mobility needs. ” At the AIA Vitality Bounce, guests can use a climbing net amidst the canopy and traverse various zones, making them feel like true tree-dwellers. Photo credit: Mandai Wildlife Group Our partners include AIA Singapore whose commitment to customer and community engagement, wildlife conservation, and healthier living comes to life through its sponsorship of the Malayan tapir habitat at Rainforest Wild Asia. They are also the naming sponsor of AIA Vitality Bounce – a nature-immersive, high-element net playground that encourages fun and dynamic play for visitors of all ages while fostering mental wellness. “AIA Singapore is delighted to be a part of the exciting opening of Rainforest Wild Asia, through the sponsorship of the AIA Vitality Bounce and the habitat of the two beloved tapirs. This sponsorship exemplifies the AIA One Billion initiative, the company’s ambitious goal to empower one billion people to live healthier, longer, better lives by 2030. In our increasingly digital world, taking time to immerse ourselves in nature is more important than ever. We hope that through this initiative, we provide everyone with a space to disconnect, cultivate deeper relationships with nature and loved ones, and to be inspired to protect our wildlife,” said Ms Wong Sze Keed, Chief Executive Officer, AIA Singapore. Immerse in walk-through habitats, track wildlife in naturalistic surroundings and have a taste of what it could be like hiking through a Southeast Asian rainforest. At Rainforest Wild Asia’s multi-layered rainforest experience, guests can choose from paths of varying difficulty, each offering unique perspectives of animal habitats. Park-goers can opt for easier paths on wide walkways, challenge themselves on forest treks crossing over boulder steps, logs and streams or take a combination of both routes. These paths provide opportunities to spot the elusive Malayan tiger along the way or be at eye-level with species like the Malayan sun bear, albeit at a safe distance away. Preparations have been underway for the public opening of Rainforest Wild Asia. The animal care team has been overseeing and directing animal transfers over the past two months, based on a translocation plan which is still in progress. The task of mapping these details commenced more than 18 months ago to ensure a safe transition for the wildlife and staff involved. This included identifying potential challenges so that proactive measures are in place as the plan is executed. Upon arrival at Rainforest Wild Asia, the animals are first released into their off-exhibit dens, where they are closely monitored before being gradually introduced to their designated habitats. As with any adjustments, time is of essence and the keepers are now focusing on conditioning training to help them explore and progressively settle into their new surroundings, at their own pace. The entire transition process is thoughtfully structured for the animals’ safety and welfare. The Rainforest Wild Asia journey is enriched by a series of Ranger Talks, held throughout key zones of the park such as The Karsts, Forest Floor, Watering Hole and more. These daily sessions offer visitors a deeper understanding of the forest-dwelling fauna that thrive in the diverse layers of the rainforest. Visitors can plan their experience around these informative sessions or chance upon them during their adventure. Take exploration to new heights with a range of add-on Adventure Plus and Black Adventure activities operated by Forest Adventure, designed to elevate the thrill of discovering the rainforest park. Adventure Plus offers three distinct activities including Canopy Jump, where guests step off a 13- or 20-metre platform for a simulated free fall and Critter Crawl which takes participants through a 60-metre cave tunnel as they crouch, sidestep, and crawl through darkness, dodging hanging stalactites and manoeuvring around rock features. AIA Vitality Bounce, an open-sky bouncing play area, features three bounce zones at least 3-metres above ground. The Wild Apex Adventure will see participants climb metal rungs, ladders and suspended bridges along a via ferrata path at the Karsts which offer expansive views of the Mandai Wildlife Reserve and Langur Island habitat below.

This lavish new production, co-produced by GWB Entertainment and Opera Australia, and presented in Singapore by Base Entertainment Asia, marking a major milestone in the region’s theatrical landscape. This reimagined staging of Sunset Boulevard breathes new life into one of Broadway’s most celebrated musicals, offering a fresh visual and emotional take on the beloved classic. It also marks a momentous theatrical event: the return of global music icon Sarah Brightman to the stage after more than three decades. Known as the world’s best-selling soprano and topping the charts across the world, Brightman takes on the iconic role of Norma Desmond, the once-glorious silent film star yearning for a comeback. This spectacular musical is directed by Paul Warwick Griffin, with set and costume designs by Morgan Large, choreography by Ashley Wallen, and musical supervision by Kristen Blodgette, this production offers a spellbinding fusion of cinematic grandeur, breathtaking musical performances, and powerful storytelling. A Star-Studded Cast Bringing Hollywood’s Golden Age to Life At the heart of the show is Sarah Brightman, whose portrayal of Norma Desmond is nothing short of captivating. Taking on one of musical theatre’s most complex and demanding roles, Brightman delivers a performance that is hauntingly tragic, deeply nuanced, and vocally mesmerising. With her signature ethereal voice, she effortlessly brings emotional depth to Norma’s most iconic songs, including With One Look and As If We Never Said Goodbye, capturing both the grandeur and fragility of a woman trapped in her own past. Joining Sarah Brightman is critically acclaimed actor Tim Draxl as Joe Gillis, the disillusioned screenwriter who becomes entangled in Norma’s world of illusion. Draxl brings a layered and compelling performance, portraying Joe’s conflicted emotions—his initial cynicism, his fascination with Norma’s lavish lifestyle, and his growing desperation as he realises the cost of staying in her orbit. His chemistry with Brightman creates a riveting dynamic, making their scenes together electric with tension and heartbreak. Robert Grubb delivers an exceptional performance as Max Von Mayerling, Norma’s fiercely devoted butler, whose deeply hidden secrets add an element of mystery to the story. His rich, resonant voice and understated yet powerful stage presence make his character one of the most intriguing figures in the production. Meanwhile, Ashleigh Rubenach shines as Betty Schaefer, the aspiring screenwriter who offers Joe a glimpse of a different future—one filled with creativity, honesty, and genuine love. Her youthful optimism and clear, strong vocals provide a striking contrast to Norma’s world of faded glory. Rounding out the main cast are Jarrod Draper as Artie Green and Paul Hanlon as legendary director Cecil B. DeMille, along with a stellar ensemble cast that brings depth and energy to every scene, from Hollywood studio backlots to the eerie isolation of Norma’s decaying mansion. A Spellbinding Production with Cinematic Grandeur From the moment the curtains rise, Sunset Boulevard transports audiences into the glamorous yet unforgiving world of 1950s Hollywood. Set and costume designer Morgan Large has meticulously recreated the era’s opulence, from Norma’s decaying mansion to the bustling Paramount Studios. The grandeur of the staging is matched by Ashley Wallen’s evocative choreography, which brings movement and tension to the production. The hauntingly beautiful score, performed under the musical supervision of Kristen Blodgette, remains one of Webber’s finest. Iconic numbers such as With One Look and As If We Never Said Goodbye resonate deeply, with Brightman’s soaring vocals delivering breathtaking emotional depth. The full orchestra enhances the dramatic intensity, making each song a powerful storytelling tool. What makes this production of Sunset Boulevard truly stand out is its ability to balance spectacle with deeply human emotions. Brightman’s portrayal of Norma is both chilling and heartbreaking, drawing sympathy for a woman lost in her own illusions. Draxl’s Joe is the perfect counterbalance, embodying both fascination and fear in his interactions with Norma. Their complex relationship unfolds like a slow-burning tragedy, culminating in a finale that is as shocking as it is inevitable. A Must-See Theatrical Event With its stunning production design, soaring score, and a world-class cast, Sunset Boulevard is a must-watch for musical theatre fans. This reimagined staging captures the grandeur of Old Hollywood while offering fresh, emotional depth that resonates with today’s audiences. For those who have yet to experience this legendary musical, this Singapore premiere is an unmissable opportunity. Catch Sunset Boulevard at Sands Theatre, Marina Bay Sands, from February 7 to 23, 2025, for an unforgettable night of theatre magic.

We look forward to welcoming some of the best youth teams in Asia and their families to our shores, and hope that they will create lasting memories exploring the myriad experiences Singapore has to offer beyond the courts. ” A 6’11” forward/center, Bosh was selected 4th overall in the 2003 NBA Draft and went on to win back to-back NBA championships with the Miami Heat in 2012 and 2013.

A food exploratory plate for little ones, My Story Plate was designed to create a positive dining experience for young children from 6-months-old to 6-years-old, who are discovering food, to nurture their love for eating. Its design encourages self-feeding and guides them to eat continuously to finish a meal in a timely manner. Unique Five-Pod Feature: - With the five numbered pods, young children can learn about numbers and easily take to the method of eating from Pod 1 to Pod 5, to finish a meal successfully. - Food can be portioned into smaller, more achievable (less daunting! ) amounts to encourage eating, and to separate food types. It is perfect for introducing new types of food to little ones. - The rounded pods make it easy for young children to manage a spoon to self-feed (or explore with their hands to feel the varied textures of different food types), empowering them to eat independently. Suitable for Kids Up to 6-years-old As a food introductory plate that can hold various food types separately, My Story Plate is perfect as baby’s first weaning plate. Fussy eaters will find eating less daunting with food portioned into smaller, more achievable amounts; while slow eaters are encouraged to eat continuously by eating from one numbered pod to another in ascending order, with the goal of making it to Pod 5. Hurray! Two Attractive and Thematic Designs for Storytelling: My Story Plate gets its name from the thematic graphics on the plate, which tell a story. A lovely bonding activity for parent and child, these stories impart good values for teaching moments. Natural, Anti-Bacterial & Eco-Friendly – No Plastics! Caring for the planet and wanting the best for our children. My Story Plate is an eco-friendly product, made with good quality bamboo fibre. As bamboo is one of the fastest growing plant on Earth, it is a sustainable and renewable form of material. A natural material, bamboo fibre is also anti-bacterial and toxic-free. The Perfect Gift – Personalised with a Child’s Name Each plate that is purchased will come with a personalised name label so junior can use it with pride! The clear thermal label is waterproof, tear-proof, oil-proof, BPA-free and biodegradable. It lasts for two years and does not leave a residue when peeled off. A second label is included as a spare. A personalised plate makes a wonderful gift – perfect for baby showers, birthdays and Christmas! Mealtimes are a little more special with a personalised plate bearing one’s precious name. Parents Tell Why They Love My Story Plate: Helps kids to eat continuously (by following the number sequence like playing a game! ) and finish faster. In up to half the usual eating time! Guides little ones to eat independently and scoop food easily with its rounded base. Helps fussy eaters commit to finishing what is on their plate. Keeps kids who are easily distracted, focused on eating. Can be used for meals and also as a grazing plate for snacks – to try different food types.

About A Lil’ Love A Lil’ Love is a curation of original designs made with love for the family to enjoy. Using eco friendly materials, which are sustainable for the environment and safer for your loved ones, our products are designed to spark joy. Their very first item is a food exploratory plate for your little ones. Stay tuned for more unique products coming your way! About My Story Plate My Story Plate was designed to create a positive dining experience for young children, to nurture their love for food. It all started when first-time mom, Rachel, became increasingly frustrated with trying to encourage her daughter, Oia Victoria, to finish her meals. Rachel then realised that when she counted down on the number of spoonful of food left to go, it motivated her daughter to eat. Rachel thought that perhaps a plate with numbered ‘pods’, which portioned out food into smaller, less intimidating amounts would help. This led to the design of My Story Plate, featuring five ascending numbered pods to portion food and encourage young children to eat continuously by starting with Pod 1 and moving on consecutively towards Pod 5. With My Story Plate, Rachel’s mission is to empower young children with the confidence for self-feeding, and to make mealtime enjoyable for the whole family. My Story Plate is a unique design by A Lil’ Love. Retail price: S$39. Enjoy 10% with code: WELCOME10 Purchase online: www. alillove. sg.

Back for its fifth iteration from 17 Jan to 16 Feb 2025, feast your eyes with no less than 23 exhibits - representing the efforts of 15 local artists and 13 brands curated by Vertical Submarine and various mall exhibits - that will be put up for public appreciation. Creative Intersection: SNAKES and LADDERS is positioned as an “art-meets retail” program recognised by the annual Singapore Art Week 2025 as a form of public art. The exhibition will be presented on two fronts. At the tenant level, brands are partnering with various artists to co-create works of art that will be displayed in their stores. This year, eight brands are participating for the first time in Creative Intersections: Audio Technica, Dal. komm COFFEE, Dreame, Omnidesk, Sinpopo Brand, Skin Belief, The Green Collective and The Pace. At the mall level, Funan collaborates with local artists to create exhibits for public display. These mall exhibits include “Puzzled by the Stairs” by Vertical Submarine, Funan’s first interactive puzzle at its Grand Stairs; a new animation entitled “Dance like a boa, Swing like a bae” by Umami Labo at the first-of-its-kind Kinetic Wall; six Passion Snakes and a 15-meter “Fortune Snake” hanging art installation. #1 PUZZLED BY THE STAIRS SNAKES AND LADDER INTERACTIVE PUZZLE This interactive puzzle – located at the Level 1 Grand Stairs – invites visitors to Funan to explore the ups and downs of life through play.

ABOUT THE CREATORS Interactive puzzle: by Vertical Submarine, an art collective acclaimed for its interdisciplinary projects. Campaign key visual: by Wendy Mack, artist, author, and educator. #2 PASSION SNAKES #3 KINETIC WALL ANIMATION The Kinetic Wall is Singapore’s first-of-its-kind 7-storey digital art installation at Funan. It measures 13m high and 9m wide and is constructed of 1,271 motorised light blades and embossed aluminium panels. Mirrored ceilings complement this spectacular structure to heighten its visual impact. “DANCE LIKE A BOA, SWING LIKE A BAE” Click here to see the Kinetic Wall animation. This artwork draws inspiration from the enduring presence of snakes in popular culture, juxtaposing iconic representations that have captivated audiences through the ages. From the serpent offering Eve the forbidden apple to the whimsical game of Snakes and Ladders, the martial arts classic Snake in the Eagle's Shadow, and the pixelated nostalgia of Nokia's Snake game, these elements reveal a rich tapestry of entertainment history. The piece reflects the evolution of technology and its impact on our entertainment experience. The pixelation is a metaphor for the digital age, where simplicity often conceals deeper narratives. Just as the snake embodies temptation and duality, our current state of entertainment oscillates between the profound and the trivial, merging ancient archetypes with contemporary platforms. This artwork not only honours the timeless allure of the snake but also critiques the rapid changes in our media landscape. It invites viewers to consider how these age-old symbols resonate in a world increasingly dominated by screens and pixels.

Our editorial team spoke to Kent Teo, Founder and CEO of Invade, who shared insights into the rise of experiential festivals like ARTBOX in Asia, driven by a growing demand for immersive experiences that blend art, commerce, and entertainment. He highlighted how ARTBOX leads this trend by fostering creative expression and community-driven activities, measuring success through meaningful local engagement. Kent also discussed the future of creative entrepreneurship, emphasising the importance of initiatives like Trade Day, which provide networking opportunities, mentorship, and a platform to address challenges faced by creative entrepreneurs across Asia. Read on to find out more. Interview with Kent Teo, Founder and CEO of Invade 1. Experiential festivals are becoming increasingly popular across Asia. What do you think is driving this trend, and how ARTBOX is leading this trend by blending art, commerce, and entertainment in immersive ways? Kent Teo: ● As Asia becomes increasingly interconnected, we noticed that there is a growing demand for festivals that fuse diverse cultural elements, creating unique and memorable experiences. Younger generations, prioritising experiences over material possessions, are drawn to these festivals for their immersive environments that offer interactive engagements with art, music, food, and culture. Moreover, the visually striking and interactive nature of experiential festivals makes them highly shareable on social media platforms, driving their popularity and encouraging more events of this nature. ● With this year marking our sixth edition, ARTBOX has been at the forefront of this trend, continuously pushing the boundaries of artistic expression and redefining what an experiential creative festival can be. What sets ARTBOX apart is its seamless fusion of art, commerce, and entertainment, creating a vibrant, multi-sensory experience that resonates with a diverse audience. Beyond offering a unique marketplace, we provide a platform for the next generation of creatives, empowering them to showcase their talents through creative workshops, community-driven initiatives, and dynamic live performances. ● For example, we have appointed PHUNK to be our official art partner seamlessly integrating their artwork into our programming and large format inflatables. Furthermore, with the aim to support the creative economy, we are looking to showcase retailing merchandise from over 30 local artists at Artbox’s first-ever convenience store. Lastly, for the first time, we’ve elevated our usual media day into Artbox Trade Day, designed to inspire the next generation of creatives through panel discussions, breakout sessions, and flash mentoring led by our organisational leaders and content creators. ● By embracing this trend and constantly evolving our offerings, we hope that ARTBOX will lead the way in shaping the future of experiential festivals in Asia. Furthermore, our goal is to be the catalyst for creativity, promoting community-building and cross-cultural exchanges, and inspiring the next generation of creative entrepreneurs and festival-goers alike. 2.

ARTBOX is known for its seamless blend of art, commerce, and entertainment. How do you curate these elements to ensure they resonate with a diverse audience and keep the festival experience fresh? Kent Teo: ● At ARTBOX, we are committed to curating a rich and inclusive experience by integrating diverse cultural influences and collaborating with distinguished local and regional artists. ● A prime example of this collaboration is Aliwal Chess Club’s partnership with 32 local and regional artists who have transformed larger-than-life chess pieces with hand-drawn designs. This unique blend of art and strategy allows visitors to engage in interactive chess activities, turning a traditional game into a vibrant artistic experience.

These adaptogens, revered in traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine for their stress-relieving and health-enhancing properties, are now accessible to modern consumers seeking holistic wellness solutions. New Adaptogen Range in three variants: Lion’s Mane, reishi & cordyceps by Gratefood Co. What Are Adaptogens? Adaptogens are herbs and mushrooms known to help the body manage stress, restore balance, and improve physiological functions. Despite their ancient origins, the term "adaptogen" was officially coined only in 1947. These natural remedies are seeing a resurgence in global interest, particularly since the COVID-19 pandemic, as consumers increasingly explore holistic health approaches. Gratefood Co. 's adaptogens are crafted using an ultrasonic extraction method, which breaks the cell walls of the herbs to maximize bioactive compound absorption. The current lineup includes three variants: Lion's Mane: Supports cognitive and neurological health. Reishi: Promotes relaxation, respiratory health, and liver detoxification. Cordyceps: Boosts energy, stamina, and hormonal balance. Why Adaptogens Are Gaining Popularity Globally, adaptogen sales have surged, with products being integrated into teas, juices, soups, supplements, and even skincare. Traditionally consumed as powders, pills, or brewed soups, adaptogens are now making their way into more innovative formats like mushroom coffees, protein shakes, and ready-to-drink beverages. Jacqueline Koay, founder of Gratefood Co. , aims to modernize adaptogen consumption by introducing them in pump bottles. This user-friendly format makes it easier for younger consumers and food businesses to incorporate adaptogens into daily routines without the bitterness or inconvenience associated with traditional methods. Health Benefits of Adaptogens Adaptogens are celebrated for their wide-ranging health benefits, which include: Stress Relief and Relaxation: Reishi’s calming effects improve sleep and reduce anxiety. Energy and Stamina: Cordyceps enhance oxygen utilization and ATP production, improving endurance. Cognitive Function: Lion’s Mane stimulates nerve growth factor, supporting brain health and memory. Immune and Respiratory Health: Reishi and Cordyceps support lung and immune system health. Gut Health: Lion’s Mane fosters beneficial gut bacteria. Anti-Inflammatory and Antioxidant Effects: All variants provide bioactive compounds that protect and rejuvenate cells. Festive Wellness in a Bottle As the holiday season brings its share of stress and indulgence, Gratefood Co. 's adaptogens offer a timely solution for relaxation and wellness. Packaged in sleek pump bottles, they make thoughtful gifts for loved ones. Jacqueline emphasizes that while adaptogens provide significant health benefits, they work best alongside a balanced diet and adequate hydration rather than as quick-fix remedies. Usage and Availability Each pump delivers 800mg of adaptogen extract, free of sugar, and can be mixed into beverages like coffee, tea, or smoothies, as well as used in cooking and baking. The range is available in three sizes: 500ml (166 servings): $108 250ml (83 servings): $68 54ml (8 servings): $48 for a set of 3 These products are sold on Gratefood. co and at Crane outlets in Wisma, Joo Chiat, and OUE Downtown. Collaborative Innovations Gratefood Co. has partnered with local businesses to integrate adaptogens into their offerings. Ahimsa Sanctuary, a wellness hub featuring a café and yoga studio, now includes adaptogen-infused plant-based dishes in their menu. Similarly, Kombucha Works, a craft kombucha brewery by Katherine Sng, has launched a Lion’s Mane kombucha with earthy, sweet, and tangy notes. Gratefood Co. ’s innovative adaptogen pumps are setting the stage for a modern functional food movement, helping consumers usher in the festive season with enhanced health and vitality.

With over 30 piping hot claypot and hotplate dishes, each perfected through years of cooking with love and passion for his daughter, Claypot Daddy blazes its way to the heart and stomach of every family at Changi Airport this January. It all started in Daddy’s steamy little kitchen, where he stumbled into a fiery affair with the humble claypot — a partner who knew how to handle the heat. Daddy discovered its secret: the ability to lock in scorching heat, keeping it irresistibly hot and tantalisingly steamy, bite after bite. With just the right amount of fire, Daddy coaxed out the secrets hidden deep within, teasing bold flavours until they were ready to explode. The claypot didn’t just deliver — it ensured a heat that lasts well beyond the first taste. Word spread quickly about Daddy’s irresistible creations, each one a slow burn of pure satisfaction.

If you don’t know where to start, look forward to Daddy’s Signatures of bold, unforgettable flavours you can’t miss in items like Daddy’s Signature Treasures ($18. 90), a rich claypot medley of a mix of premium ingredients cooked to perfection. A spicy punch can be found with the Daddy's Signature Mala Pot ($13. 90) a sizzling pot packed with Daddy’s favourite ingredients in a spicy mala sauce or Daddy's Favourite Curry Chicken ($8. 90), a thick curry chicken slow-cooked over 48 hours for a classic, comforting curry full of spice and flavour.

Gastronomic Highlights Ya Ge’s talented culinary team introduces several innovative dishes for CNY 2025, spotlighting creativity and traditional flavours: Double-boiled Superior Soup with Whole Chicken and Shark’s Fin stuffed in Pig’s Maw: This signature dish features Pig Maw expertly stuffed with deboned French ‘An Xin’ chicken and premium shark’s fin, then simmered to perfection in a rich, aromatic broth infused with the essence of old hen, chicken feet, chicken bones, lean meat, and a touch of white pepper. The result is an indulgent, deeply flavourful dish that balances the tenderness of the chicken meat and shark’s fin, and a savoury, comforting broth. Smoked Herb-Infused Irish ‘Pipa’ Duck: This whole duck is dry-aged for 168 hours and marinated for 24 hours in a harmonious blend of Western and Chinese spices, including sage, rosemary, oregano, star anise, and more. Roasted and smoked to perfection, it offers a sensory delight with tender, flavourful meat encased in a layer of crispy golden-brown skin. The depth of seasoning elevates this dish into a truly refined culinary experience. Stir-fried Australian Lobster with White Asparagus, Hokkaido Milk, Truffle Oil, and Pine Nuts: Succulent Australian lobster is sautéed and combined with white asparagus in a creamy Hokkaido milk and egg white sauce, enriched with truffle oil. Roasted pine nuts and a garnish of caviar add texture and luxurious umami, creating a decadently smooth and savoury dish. Braised 5-head Abalone and Pork Trotter with White Shiitake Mushroom: The pork trotter is slow-braised to perfection over 4 hours in a rich, aromatic sauce infused with an intricate blend of herbs and spices, including cinnamon, star anise, clove, black cardamom, and coriander seed. Enhanced with crystal sugar, this meticulous process yields a deep, velvety hue and an irresistibly tender, flavourful finish. Pan-fried Cod Fish Fillet with Kochi Yuzu: The cod fillet is first marinated in yuzu zest and expertly pan-fried to perfection. The dish is then finished with a delicate sprinkle of house-made Kochi yuzu salt, enhancing the fish’s natural flavours with a refreshing, citrusy touch. Crispy Soft-Shell Crab with Duo Vermicelli and Crab Roe: A reimagined favourite, this dish features a whole deep-fried soft-shell crab, crispy on the outside and tender within, paired with braised rice vermicelli and glass noodles for a balance of textures. Premium crab roe enhances the umami richness, creating a perfect harmony of flavours.

A fresh addition to Mediacorp’s diverse range of unscripted formats, the game show underscores the company’s commitment to delivering dynamic and quality entertainment for its audiences. The show is hosted by Mediacorp 987 personality Joakim Gomez and Bloomr. SG MCN Exclusive Creator Munah Bagharib. This exciting 10-episode series features 60 mystery singers, handpicked through auditions conducted earlier this year. To avoid elimination by celebrity contestants, the mystery singers must either showcase exceptional singing skills or convincingly mask their lack of vocal talent. Meanwhile, celebrity contestants rely on intuition and deductive reasoning to assess the mystery singers’ abilities, eliminating the bad singers round by round, with the ultimate goal of retaining a good singer as the last person standing. Adding to the excitement, a panel of resident celebrity detectives—including Benjamin Kheng, Gurmit Singh, Najip Ali, and Xixi Lim—alongside weekly guest celebrity detectives, will provide insights and commentary that can either assist or mislead celebrity contestants in their decisions. Gurmit Singh, well-known for his illustrious career in Singapore’s entertainment industry, brings his unique charm and humor to this exciting variety program. Our editorial team spoke to resident celebrity detective Gurmit Singh, where he shared more about his latest project, I Can See Your Voice Singapore, the strategies he employs to identify good singers from bad ones, his parenting journey, and his aspirations for 2025. Interview with Gurmit Singh, Resident Celebrity Detective of I Can See Your Voice Singapore 1) You have had a decorated career since you first joined the entertainment scene. Could you share some your career highlights? Gurmit Singh: I started my career hosting a live variety TV show called Live on 5. From there, I went on to sing and appear in various TV shows and movies, including Phua Chu Kang Pte Ltd, Singapore Idol, Tonight with Gurmit, Gurmit’s World, and Small Talk with Gurmit, among others. 2) You will be in I Can See Your Voice this January – can you share more about your involvement in the show? Gurmit Singh: This project is one of my favourites to date. I liken it to playing a musical version of Cluedo, where the clues are sometimes helpful but sometimes absolutely ridiculously unhelpful :-) As a resident detective, my job is to help identify the good singers from the bad singers, with the ultimate goal of retaining a good singer for the final duet with a celebrity contestant or celebrity guest detective. But it is sooo difficult because all the mystery singers are so convincing at making us believe they are good singers. 3) How did you prepare for the filming of each episode of I Can See Your Voice? Gurmit Singh: Well, I watched other countries’ versions of the show and picked up some tips on how to identify the bad singers. But to be honest, it’s still difficult, especially when the bad singers act so well and pretend to be good singers! 4) You are a father to three – could you share with us more about your parenting journey? Gurmit Singh: Like any other parent out there, it’s been full of ups and downs. And that’s life, isn’t it? We learn as parents too. There’s no exact manual out there for us to reference. So, we cherish the good times, learn from the bad times, and keep moving forward—with love. Love is such an important ingredient in the whole parenthood mix. 5) How has your parenting style changed or differ among your children? Gurmit Singh: Nope, all the same. Haha. The only difference is that with each child that came along, I felt less frantic about it. By the third child, we were as calm as a baby pacifier (yes, I made that up). Haha. 6) Going into 2025, are there any works we can expect from you? Or, what are some projects you hope to work on? Gurmit Singh: There are some upcoming projects, but more details will be shared in due course. But please catch them, won’t you? Yes, we are definitely excited to see more of Gurmit Singh’s projects in 2025, starting with I Can See Your Voice Singapore and his role as the resident celebrity detective in the show. Starting 13 January 2025, viewers can catch I Can See Your Voice Singapore every Monday at 7. 30pm on Channel 5, with simulcast available on mewatch. The episodes will also be available on demand on mewatch and Mediacorp Entertainment on YouTube. Virginia Lim, Chief Content Officer, Mediacorp, shared that “The show is packed with intriguing twists and surprises that will keep viewers guessing. We are blown away by the strong showcase of raw performing talent among our mystery singers and can’t wait to bring this exciting game show to screens in 2025. ” Don’t miss this electrifying debut!

Founded in Guangzhou in 2013, this celebrated restaurant chain has grown to over 80 outlets across China. Its debut in Singapore marks the brand's first international location, offering diners a taste of traditional Hakka flavours. Inaugural Restaurant Out of China With Singapore's Hakka community numbering over 200,000, the expansion of Hakka Yu into Singapore marks a significant milestone as the first outlet to open outside of China. This exclusive opening brings authentic Hakka cuisine to the heart of Southeast Asia, offering both locals and international visitors the chance to experience the rich flavours and cultural heritage of the Hakka community. With over 11 million visitors to Singapore in 2023 alone, the city’s vibrant food scene provides the perfect platform to showcase the spirit of Hakka cuisine to the world. Hakka Yu’s commitment to authenticity and its unique dishes add to Singapore's diverse culinary landscape, further enhancing its appeal as a global food destination. Hakka Yu at Changi Jewel offers an unforgettable taste of Hakka culture in one of Singapore’s most iconic landmarks. Keeping Hakka Traditions Alive In anticipation of Hakka Yu's opening, the restaurant has been in close discussions with the Char Yong (Dabu) Association, a respected advocate for Hakka heritage. The association recently travelled to China to experience Hakka Yu firsthand and returned with high praise for its authenticity. They are excited about Hakka Yu's debut in Singapore and look forward to a meaningful partnership that will promote Hakka cuisine in Singapore. “We’re thrilled to introduce Hakka Yu to Singapore,” said Mr Fong Chi Chung, Founder and Chairman of PUTIEN Group. “Authentic Hakka dishes, such as Hakka Salt-Baked Chicken and Traditional Hakka Pork Soup, are rarely seen in Singapore’s local food scene. At Hakka Yu, we aim to bring these unique flavours to the forefront, introducing the rich heritage of Hakka cuisine to both locals and visitors. Our goal is to enrich Singapore’s multicultural food scene by offering a deeper experience of Hakka flavours—flavours that have already found a welcoming home here. ” Food serves as a powerful cultural expression and Hakka Yu aims to keep Hakka traditions alive through authentic Hakka cuisine. Hakka Cuisine: A Testament to The Resilience and Adaptability of The Hakka People The Hakka people’s history of migration has shaped their cuisine, with preservation techniques like salting, drying, and fermentation still central to their dishes today. Hakka Yu’s traditional hand-shredded salt-baked chicken honours this heritage, using the ancient salt-baking method to preserve the chicken’s natural flavours and enhance its tenderness and juiciness. As the Hakka migrated, they adapted their cuisine to local ingredients, creating a wide variety of dishes with items like bamboo shoots, preserved vegetables, and different meats. Hakka cuisine reflects the balance between preserving their cultural roots and adjusting to new environments for survival. This resilient and adaptable culinary tradition continues to thrive today, offering a rich and diverse range of flavours.

Read on to find out more. Interview with Damien Foo, Chief Marketing Officer of Nature’s Farm Damien Foo, Chief Marketing Officer of Nature’s Farm 1. Nature’s Farm has been a trailblazer in Singapore’s wellness industry for over four decades. What would you say is the key to maintaining the brand's relevance and success in such a competitive market? Damien: Nature’s Farm has remained a trusted leader in Singapore’s wellness industry for over four decades by consistently delivering premium-quality supplements using the finest ingredients. Our commitment to innovation, rigorous quality standards, and understanding of our customers’ evolving health needs have set us apart in the competitive market. This dedication to excellence ensures that we remain the go-to choice for those seeking trusted and effective wellness solutions while catering to individuals of all ages. 2. Collagen Hero and Collagen Glam are standout products in your portfolio. Could you share the key distinctions between these two formulations and the unique needs they address for consumers? Damien: The Collagen Hero and Collagen Glam are both premium collagen products specially formulated with marine collagen peptides to support optimal collagen intake and absorption. We have created these two distinct formulations to cater to the unique needs of consumers across different age groups, ensuring high potency and efficacy for consumers. ● Collagen Hero is designed for consumers aged 30 and above, delivering a powerful 5800mg of Marine Collagen Peptides per sachet. It is specifically crafted to support skin elasticity, enhance collagen production, and strengthen hair and nails, helping to counteract the natural decline in collagen levels as we age. ● Collagen Glam, on the other hand, is tailored for younger consumers under 30. With 3000mg of Marine Collagen Peptides, it is enriched with beauty-enhancing ingredients such as rose petal extract and white tomato extract. This formulation is perfect for brightening dull skin, promoting a radiant and even complexion, and addressing the skincare needs of the younger demographic. 3. What steps does Nature’s Farm take to ensure that products like Collagen Hero and Collagen Glam are not only innovative but also outperform similar offerings from competitors in the market? Damien: The supplements market is undoubtedly crowded with collagen products, but Nature’s Farm distinguishes itself by utilising marine collagen peptides, derived from fish scales, which are known for their superior potency. Our commitment goes beyond potency, as it prioritises creating collagen supplements that are both highly effective and enjoyable to consume. Recognising that many products on the market are essentially fruit juice concentrates with added collagen, we took a different approach. The Collagen Duo are meticulously formulated products with the optimal collagen dosage for effective absorption by the body, while incorporating patented ingredients to enhance their efficacy. This ensures that the formulations are both innovative and deeply effective, meeting the expectations of our consumers. 4. Research and development seem to be a cornerstone of Nature’s Farm’s product strategy. Could you elaborate on the brand’s commitment to research and how this translates into the proven efficacy of your supplements? Damien: At Nature’s Farm, research and development are integral to our mission of creating high-quality, effective supplements. Our team collaborates with experts, including nutritionists, scientists, and healthcare professionals, to ensure that every product is backed by robust scientific research. 5. With the growing demand for personalised wellness solutions, how does Nature’s Farm address individual health needs and tailor its offerings to meet diverse consumer lifestyles? Damien: At Nature’s Farm, we take pride in having skilled nutritionists and knowledgeable staff in our stores who are dedicated to supporting individual health needs. While they are not medical professionals, they are highly trained to provide personalised recommendations on the most suitable supplements to enhance overall wellbeing. Our approach is centred on understanding each customer’s unique concerns and lifestyle, ensuring that our advice is tailored to promote optimal health outcomes. 6. As Chief Marketing Officer, what are your strategies for connecting with younger audiences while maintaining the trust and loyalty of Nature’s Farm’s long-standing customer base? Damien: Nature’s Farm’s approach to engaging younger customers focuses on delivering content and products that directly address their specific needs and interests.

This event marks the Creative Director debut of Singaporean Paralympic swimmer and Global Team Toyota Athlete (GTTA) Toh Wei Soong. Taking place on 12 December 2024 at the Toyota Boutique at Leng Kee, the showcase will present an innovative collection created in collaboration with Claudia Poh, founder of adaptive fashion label Werable. This collection embodies Toh’s mission to make fashion accessible for all, regardless of ability, inspiring a broader understanding of adaptive fashion. Adding a dynamic visual element, Toyota Singapore has unveiled a Toyota RAV4 wrapped in a design inspired by Toh Wei Soong’s sketches. This striking vehicle wrap serves as a canvas for his artistic vision and symbolizes the strength and creativity of adaptive design. It seamlessly integrates the worlds of fashion and mobility, illustrating how innovation and inclusivity are brought to life through both automotive and fashion design. Empowering Change Through Inclusive Design Toh’s debut collection as Creative Director embodies his mission to make fashion universally accessible and inclusive. Created in collaboration with Claudia Poh, founder of adaptive fashion label Werable, the collection challenges conventional notions of adaptive design by blending functionality with elegance, while incorporating a historical theme of transformation. “At its heart, the hero project is about transformation—alchemy. In this case, it is the self transformation from lesser to higher selves,” Toh explained. His creative direction reflects his love for history and culture, connecting these influences to the theme of transformation and the Start Your Impossible ethos. “It’s about becoming more than what we are, inspired by the stories, ideas, and experiences that have shaped me. ” The collection features 16 stunning looks, modeled by individuals of diverse abilities, each celebrating self-expression, dignity, and style. Collaborating with Claudia, Toh merges his vision with her expertise in textiles and production, showcasing how clothing can empower individuals to transform and express themselves with confidence. Start Your Impossible: Toyota’s Commitment to Inclusivity and Empowerment Toyota’s Start Your Impossible global corporate initiative, launched in 2018, underscores the brand’s dedication to building a more inclusive, sustainable, and mobile society. Through this global campaign, Toyota in Singapore supports athletes who serve as “dual heroes,” excelling in sport while championing social change. Toh exemplifies this spirit, blending his passions for sports and fashion to promote inclusivity. Ng Khee Siong, Managing Director of Borneo Motors Singapore, expressed his support for the project, saying, “We are incredibly proud to support Toh Wei Soong’s debut as Creative Director for this remarkable project. The Start Your Impossible initiative is about breaking barriers and inspiring individuals to believe that the impossible is within reach. Toh’s vision for inclusive fashion aligns perfectly with our commitment to creating a world where everyone has the freedom to express themselves, regardless of ability. ” As Creative Director, Toh’s work showcases how adaptive design empowers individuals to dress with pride and style, reflecting Toyota’s commitment to fostering a world without limits, where everyone can Start Their Impossible.

A Commitment to Giving Back Following the showcase, Toh Wei Soong’s debut adaptive collection will be put up for auction, with all proceeds directed to the Society for the Physically Disabled (SPD). This cause is especially meaningful to Toh, as SPD supported him on his journey and continues to help people across the spectrum of disabilities. Additionally, $5,000 from the sale of the Toyota RAV4, which features a wrap inspired by Toh’s design, will be donated to SPD. Through this auction and the donation from the vehicle sale, Toh and Toyota Singapore aim to further empower and uplift the community, demonstrating their dedication to fostering inclusivity and making a positive impact for individuals of all abilities. --- - Published: 2024-12-11 - Modified: 2024-12-11 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/taste-the-magic-of-the-holidays-driscolls-berry-berry-good-christmas-pop-up-arrives-at-plaza-singapura/ - Categories: EVENTS - Tags: #DriscollsAsia, #DriscollsBerries, #DriscollsSingapore, #OnlyTheFinestBerries, Driscoll, Driscoll’s Berry Berry Good Christmas Pop-Up, Plaza Singapura This holiday season, sweeten up your festivities Driscoll’s Berry Berry Good Christmas Pop-Up!

Among these treatments is the KEIRAKU Head Massage, which combines traditional Japanese acupressure techniques with a focus on relieving tension and promoting overall relaxation. This treatment is inspired by Keiraku Shiatsu, a practice that stimulates specific energy meridians to alleviate stress and improve well-being. The massage involves targeted pressure applied to the scalp, neck, and shoulders, enhancing blood circulation and easing muscle tension. What is KEIRAKU Head Massage? KEIRAKU was developed by Japanese Master Mitsutoshi Taniguchi, an expert in acupuncture, moxibustion, and shiatsu. This Japanese Head Massage, rooted in 2,500 years of traditional healing practices, targets the meridians—energy pathways that flow through the head and body. Through rhythmic acupressure and kneading, the massage alleviates tension, improves blood circulation, and restores balance, benefiting not only your physical health but also your mental and emotional well-being. This therapy is particularly effective for those suffering from stress-induced symptoms, such as headaches, stiff shoulders, and insomnia. KEIRAKU targets the upper body and scalp, areas where stress often accumulates. It provides relief from sleep deprivation, promotes deep, restful sleep, and enhances focus and concentration. Whether you’re looking for a quick recharge or a deeper sense of relaxation, the KEIRAKU Head Massage offers a calming, restorative experience perfect for today’s fast-paced world. Our Editor's Experience with the KEIRAKU Head Massage at Ikeda Spa Stepping into the tranquil atmosphere at Ikeda Spa immediately sets the stage for a calming experience. The soft lighting, soothing music, and subtle aroma of essential oils create the perfect environment to unwind. My therapist, skilled in acupressure techniques, began by applying gentle pressure to my scalp and shoulders. With each stroke, I could feel the tension melt away, as the treatment induced a semi-meditative state that allowed my mind to unwind and stress to dissipate. The KEIRAKU Head Massage is a true sanctuary for the senses. The gentle yet purposeful acupressure techniques instantly melted away tension in my scalp, neck, and shoulders, leaving me in a serene, almost meditative state. It’s more than just a massage—it’s a complete reset for both mind and body. I felt a sense of lightness and clarity afterward, as if all the stress from my week had been lifted. This treatment is a must-try for anyone looking to recharge and reconnect with their inner calm. By the end of the session, I felt mentally recharged and at ease, a testament to the holistic benefits of this rejuvenating treatment. Whether you're looking to recharge or simply reconnect with your inner peace, the KEIRAKU Head Massage is an experience not to be missed. The Benefits of KEIRAKU Head Massage The KEIRAKU Head Massage offers several notable benefits that enhance both physical and mental well-being. Here’s a closer look at what you can expect from this rejuvenating treatment: Boosts Immune System: By stimulating the body’s energy meridians, the KEIRAKU Head Massage activates the natural flow of Qi, which helps strengthen the immune system. This holistic approach encourages overall health and makes the body better equipped to fend off illnesses. Promotes Deep, Restful Sleep: One of the most powerful benefits of the KEIRAKU Head Massage is its ability to combat sleep disturbances. The acupressure techniques target areas of the scalp and neck that often become tense due to stress, helping to relax both the body and mind. This promotes a deeper, more restorative sleep, making it a great solution for those struggling with insomnia or irregular sleep patterns. Energizes and Uplifts Mind & Body: The rhythmic pressure applied during the KEIRAKU massage not only relieves tension but also revitalises the body, boosting circulation and energy levels. The treatment helps lift mental fog, leaving you with a renewed sense of clarity and vitality. Relieves Stress & Improves Focus: The massage effectively calms the nervous system, reducing stress and anxiety levels. This relaxation boosts mental clarity and helps improve concentration, making it ideal for those who need to regain focus during a busy day. Helps Reduce Sleep Disturbances: By applying acupressure to key pressure points, the KEIRAKU Head Massage helps restore balance in the body. It addresses issues like restless sleep or frequent waking by calming the mind, lowering cortisol levels, and promoting a sense of tranquility. Who Should Try KEIRAKU Head Massage? The KEIRAKU Head Massage is ideal for anyone dealing with daily stress, long work hours, or physical strain from extended screen time. It’s particularly beneficial for office workers, individuals prone to migraines, or those suffering from sleep disorders. The treatment is not just a luxury but a powerful tool for maintaining mental and physical well-being in today’s fast-paced world. Ready to experience the KEIRAKU Head Massage for yourself?

This dish captures that essence with boiled shirasu (whitebait) and iwashi sujime (vinegared sardine) layered over a hearty bowl of rice. This is accompanied with tamagoyaki (rolled omelette) and red ginger for added flavour. *Choice of drink from: original drip coffee (hot), cold brew, citrus green tea (hot/cold), beauty tea (hot/cold), or detox tea (hot/cold). For an authentic taste of Japanese izakaya (bar) fare, diners can enjoy the Deep Fried Shishamo ($9)– crispy capelin filled with roe, a popular item at izakayas and Japanese restaurants. These capelins, caught in Canada and processed in Oarai, Ibaraki, are a testament to the prefecture’s dedication to quality and flavour. To complete the meal, indulge in the Ibaraki Mont Blanc Parfait ($10. 90). This decadent dessert highlights some of Ibaraki’s prized produce, including sweet potato and chestnut. Chestnut puree is generously layered over baumkuchen sponge cake and vanilla ice cream, finished with a unique Ibaraki touch– dried sweet potato.

Collaborating with like-minded partners—New Life Stories, Yellow Ribbon Project, and CANVAS—the campaign seeks to foster an ecosystem of support that emphasises the vital role of strong familial bonds in helping ex-offenders and inmates rebuild their lives and break the cycle of recidivism and intergenerational incarceration. In Singapore, recidivism remains a pressing issue, with 40% of individuals reoffending within five years of release. A deeper concern lies in the ripple effects of incarceration, as children of offenders are nearly three times more likely to come into contact with the criminal justice system. Family connections are often strained, with inmates typically having limited opportunities for brief visits a few times a month, leaving children and other loved ones without consistent support or presence. This absence can profoundly affect development and emotional well-being, making strong family relationships essential to breaking negative cycles. To address this, Geneco aims to bridge the emotional gap by offering inmates opportunities to share unspoken words and nurture deeper connections with their loved ones. Through initiatives like the Love Beyond the Walls: Till the End of Time book, the campaign highlights the power of hope, resilience, and familial support in transforming lives and building brighter futures. To delve deeper into the vision and objectives of the Till the End of Time initiative, our editorial team spoke with Alex Chan, Head of Brand, Communications, and Marketing at Geneco. Alex shared his thoughts on the campaign’s focus, the importance of family support, and how businesses can drive purpose-driven initiatives to create meaningful societal impact. 1) Could you tell us about the ‘Till the End of Time’ campaign and its focus on family support for ex-offenders? Why is this initiative especially relevant for parents and families? Alex Chan: At Geneco, our purpose has always been to #PowerTheChange—whether through advancing sustainability or fostering social impact. Central to this is our belief in the transformative power of second chances. This belief underpins our ‘Till the End of Time’ campaign, which seeks to highlight the ripple effects incarceration can have on families while emphasising the crucial role of family support in the reintegration journey of ex-offenders. Second chances are not just about offering a fresh start—they represent a critical pathway to healing, growth, and transformation. When incarcerated parents are given opportunities to reconnect with their families, they gain a renewed sense of purpose and a stronger foundation to rebuild their lives. By shining a spotlight on family ties, our campaign aims to create a framework for understanding, compassion, and healing. We hope to inspire communities to challenge preconceived notions, reduce the stigma surrounding ex-offenders, and actively contribute to a more inclusive society. Through this approach, we reaffirm our commitment to making a meaningful social impact—one that transforms lives and encourages others to see the value in giving second chances. 2) Are there specific challenges faced by families of ex-offenders that may inadvertently lead to repeated incarceration? Alex Chan: Families of ex-offenders face numerous challenges that can perpetuate the cycle of incarceration. Financial instability, emotional strain, and the social stigma of having an incarcerated family member often create a difficult environment for both the family and the returning individual. These compounded struggles can result in ex-offenders returning to environments that lack the essential support systems needed for successful reintegration, contributing to a troubling reality where approximately 40% of cases lead to re-incarceration. Through our ‘Till the End of Time’ campaign, we aim to raise awareness of these struggles and provide both the resources and rally the community support needed to help break this cycle. 3) Family is a central theme of this campaign. How do you see the role of family in supporting incarcerated inmates and helping them reintegrate into society? Could stronger family support systems reduce recidivism rates in younger offenders or prevent intergenerational incarceration patterns? Alex Chan: We firmly believe that family plays a crucial role not only in the reintegration process for incarcerated individuals but also in breaking the cycle of intergenerational incarceration. This is why we are proud to collaborate with New Life Stories (NLS) for this campaign. As a non-profit organisation dedicated to supporting inmates and their families, NLS understands the profound impact that incarceration has on both the individuals involved and their loved ones. Through NLS's targeted programmes, they offer the resources and support needed to strengthen and rebuild these family connections and aims to create lasting change by empowering families and strengthening the bonds that are essential to successful reintegration. Family serves as the cornerstone of an inmate’s reintegration, providing essential emotional support and guidance. This is especially true for children of incarcerated parents who often lack the emotional and physical support from their parents. When compounded with the stigma of having an incarcerated parent, these children are about three times more likely to encounter the criminal justice system themselves. By partnering with NLS through our ‘Till the End of Time’ campaign, we aim to raise awareness of the far-reaching impact incarceration has, not only on the individuals directly involved but also on their families and communities. Together, we seek to break the cycle of incarceration by fostering a strong support system that provides children with the foundation they need to thrive and create brighter, more promising futures. 4) The holiday season is a time for families to come together. How does the festive season tie into the goals of this campaign, and what message does it send to families who might be separated? Alex Chan: The holiday season is often associated with togetherness, warmth, and family. For many, it is a time to reconnect and celebrate bonds. On the other hand, for incarcerated parents and their families this season can bring a sense of longing and sadness due to the physical separation. We want to leverage on this season of hope and warmth to highlight the... --- - Published: 2024-11-26 - Modified: 2024-12-03 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/changi-experience-studio-to-offer-first-travel-themed-dining-experience-with-le-petit-chef/ - Categories: DINING - Tags: @jewelchangiairport, #SeeJewel, 3D mapping technology, Changi Airport, Changi Experience Studio, Dining, Le Petit Chef, World’s tiniest chef World’s smallest chef comes to Changi Airport and brings to life playful culinary explorations via 3D animation Experience an immersive culinary adventure at Changi Experience Studio, from 29 November 2024 to 30 April 2025, in a special collaboration with Le Petit Chef.

This month-long initiative encourages thoughtful consumerism, offering 23% discounts on all products from now through 6 December, and closing all physical and online doors on Black Friday (29 November) to stand against over-consumption. Slowvember 2024 – Gift with Purchase What is Slowvember? While many brands use Black Friday as an opportunity to encourage mass shopping, The Ordinary takes a unique stance. Slowvember, inspired by the founder of DECIEM, Brandon, champions the idea that quality and value should be available year-round—not tied to a single day of high-pressure deals. This ethos is rooted in consumer protection, as studies show that only 2% of Black Friday offers are genuinely the lowest prices of the year. By extending discounts across November and into December, The Ordinary enables consumers to shop with intention and mindfulness. This slowvember, The Ordinary will still be closed on 29 November (Black Friday) and have 23% discounts on all products on https://theordinary. com/en-sg (Not Applicable on Sephora SG). However, this year the offer is being extended until December 6th, to allow even more time for consumers to consider a sustainable purchase. During the extended period between the 1st - 6th of December, The Ordinary will also be offering a free keychain for every purchase of a Squalane + Amino Acids Lip Balm online and in free standing stores.

Spanning two spacious floors and over 3,000 square feet, this thoughtfully curated wellness haven seamlessly blends the ancient principles of TCM with cutting-edge aesthetic treatments, offering a personalised, holistic experience for clients across all life stages—from expectant and postpartum mothers to individuals seeking rejuvenation and balance. Nestled in the vibrant heart of Holland Village, this second outlet welcomes clients into a serene, modern environment designed to foster tranquillity and wellness. Every visit is guided by highly qualified TCM physicians, who provide tailored consultations and treatments in a spa-like setting. The space also offers a dedicated couple’s room for shared relaxation and renewal, underscoring Madam Partum’s mission to make wellness an accessible, everyday luxury. Our editorial team spoke to Yen Lim, Founder of Madam Partum, to uncover the inspirations, aspirations, and innovations behind this new chapter of the launch of their flagship sanctuary at Holland Village. Interview with Yen Lim, Founder of Madam Partum 1. How did Madam Partum first come to life, and in what ways has your own wellness journey shaped its creation? Yen Lim: Madam Partum was born out of my own experiences as a mother. Like many women, I faced the challenges of postpartum recovery, particularly breastfeeding. It was incredibly stressful, especially during the first month when I dealt with breast engorgement and struggled to produce enough milk. Seeking advice from my father, a Chinese Physician, I discovered the effectiveness of TCM lactation massage. This transformative experience inspired me to create Madam Partum, focusing on comprehensive TCM programmes tailored for pre- and post-partum care. I wanted to share the benefits of these traditional techniques, which helped me recover swiftly and regain vitality. My goal was to empower mothers through this challenging period, making wellness accessible and deeply personal. 2. What inspired you to open a new flagship sanctuary in Holland Village, and how does this outlet differ from your first location? Yen Lim: Since opening our first outlet in Katong, we've been dedicated to supporting mothers with holistic TCM care. Now, with our new flagship sanctuary at Holland Village- the second outlet, we've expanded our mission to make holistic wellness accessible to everyone, from new mothers to husbands, and beyond. We wanted to create a space that speaks to individuals at all stages of life, where both traditional and modern wellness practices come together seamlessly. This new location debuts Madam Partum's first TCM Medi-Aesthetic Clinic, which is a significant evolution from our first outlet. We’re merging the wisdom of TCM with advanced, cutting-edge technology to offer treatments that cater to both overall wellness and natural beauty. The standout treatments include our ShapeUP Contour & Define, a non-surgical body contouring therapy that utilises K-FDA-approved technology to reduce fat, tighten skin, and minimise cellulite. Additionally, we offer the Celestial Intense Hydration Face Spa, which deeply moisturises the skin, and the Goddess Meridian Face Spa, which leverages TCM principles to detoxify and rejuvenate the skin using meridian point acupressure techniques like Bojin and Guasha. For those who prefer a holistic approach, we also provide the exclusive TCM Face Spa, combining TCM with modern skincare to support youthful, glowing skin, and the TCM Head Spa, which promotes healthy hair growth and scalp balance through soothing acupressure and herbal remedies. The Holland Village outlet also introduces our first TCM Boost Bar, offering health-boosting drinks for everyone- a perfect fusion of wellness and indulgence in every sip. This new flagship is not just a wellness centre, it’s an experiential space where traditional wisdom meets contemporary lifestyles, creating an inclusive and holistic wellness experience & flavour for everyone. 3. With the new Holland Village outlet, you’ve created a unique blend of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and modern wellness therapies. Can you tell us how this approach came to be and how it resonates with both TCM enthusiasts and those exploring it for the first time? Yen Lim: When we first opened Madam Partum, I was driven by the idea of merging the timeless wisdom of TCM with contemporary wellness practices that people already enjoy. We all know how busy and stressful modern life can get, and I wanted to create a space where we could offer something more than just a quick fix all under one roof and in the same space. By blending TCM with modern therapies, we’re offering a holistic approach that not only addresses specific concerns but also nurtures the whole body and mind. In the end, our goal is to make wellness feel like a personal journey, something that’s natural and empowering no matter where you’re starting from. Whether you’re a long-time believer in TCM or just starting to explore it, we want to make that connection easy and enjoyable. 4. The TCM Boost Bar is a standout feature at your new outlet. What motivated the creation of this concept, and how does it enhance the wellness experience for all clients? Yen Lim: It feel as thou the Artisanal Oriental Bubble Tea is another drink: The TCM Boost Bar at our new outlet was born from a desire to combine the indulgence of bubble tea with the holistic benefits of TCM, offering our clients an experience that nurtures both the body and mind. And for people who know me, I do have a sweet tooth! We wanted to create a space where wellness meets pleasure, so we took a popular treat– bubble tea– and gave it a healthier twist by blending traditional ingredients. This inspired the creation of our Artisanal Oriental Bubble Tea, offering a delicious and nourishing experience that seamlessly fits into anyone’s wellness routine. For a midday pick-me-up, the Artisanal Oriental Smoothie is the perfect choice- a delicious mix of fresh milk and TCM herbs that detoxifies and revitalises without the need for caffeine. Our Signature Oriental Teas like Balance-tox are great for detoxing and post-childbirth recovery, as they help boost metabolism, promote healthy digestion, and... --- - Published: 2024-11-23 - Modified: 2024-11-24 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/caring-skin-launches-pioneering-medi-spa-at-ngee-ann-city-transforming-acne-sensitive-skin-care/ - Categories: STYLE/BEAUTY - Tags: Caring Skin, Subrina Liew, The C.L.E.A.R.

These elements converge to create an epic confrontation that underscores the importance of stability and resilience amidst chaos, bringing an emotional depth that resonates across cultures. Audiences are treated to a sensory experience, with a haunting original score that blends traditional Mongolian instruments and vocal chants, creating an atmosphere that echoes the expansive Mongolian steppes and intense battles of the 13th century. The lighting and set design artfully transport viewers to the rugged landscapes and flickering torch-lit scenes, adding authenticity and warmth to the immersive experience. In key battle scenes, the lighting intensifies, enhancing the drama and keeping the audience on the edge of their seats. An impressive ensemble brings the narrative to life, featuring Hollywood talents Ron Yuan (Mulan, Marco Polo) as Archug Khan, Mark Dacascos (John Wick: Chapter 3, Iron Chef) as the Chancellor and Leonard Wu (Ghost of Tsushima) as Achir Prince shine alongside producer and international actress Bayra Bela as Queen Tsetser, with performances in English. Renowned Mongolian stars Dulguun Odkhuu and Zana Gankhuyag add depth as The Consort and Khuchir Prince, respectively with performances in Mongolian. These powerhouse actors bring gravity and passion to the production, drawing audiences into a tale that feels both grand in scale and intimate in emotion. Presented by Base Entertainment Asia, The Mongol Khan is crafted by an acclaimed international creative team, including Tony-nominated playwright Timberlake Wertenbaker (Our Country’s Good, Three Birds Alighting On A Field), Olivier and Tony Award-winning Nick Barnes (Life of Pi, The Lorax), and the prolific historian and travel writer John Man, an expert in Mongolian history and culture. Together, they elevate the show to new heights, combining historical accuracy with dramatic artistry to provide a captivating glimpse into the Mongol Empire’s legacy and culture. With its stunning visuals, intricate choreography, and profound narrative, The Mongol Khan is a must-see event. This production not only entertains but also offers a unique opportunity to appreciate the rich heritage of Mongolia and the enduring impact of Genghis Khan’s story. Running in Singapore for a limited season until 3 November 2024, The Mongol Khan promises to be an unforgettable journey into the heart of Mongolia’s past—a cultural and theatrical masterpiece that connects history with humanity.

Highlights include a stunning new 14-metre-tall outdoor Christmas tree and nightly immersive snowfall shows. The 41st edition of the Christmas Light-Up, organised by Orchard Road Business Association (ORBA), brings together tradition and innovation in its design approach. It will “incorporate a twist to classic Christmas lights” by setting iconic Christmas elements in a “firefly garden”. This year’s stars, bells, dazzling fir trees, red cardinal birds perched atop the overstreet décor and arches of pine and holly epitomise a season of peace, hope and joy. A series of vertical beams of light that mimic the wavelike motion of fireflies signify light, connection and inspiration, bringing a touch of magic and mystery to this year’s design. The abundance of evergreen pine in the design is also a nod to Orchard Road’s past when it was home to former fruit orchards and nutmeg plantations. This year’s Christmas on A Great Street will also feature a new initiative, ORBar on A Great Street, a bar-hopping “passport” for signature cocktails at special prices, ahead of the year-end holiday season. ORBA’s long-time key partners continue to support the annual Light-Up.

Hitachi marks an impressive 34th consecutive year as the main sponsor of the festive tradition, while Mastercard serves as the Official Card for the 12th year running. The long-standing collaboration between the public and private sectors underscores the significance of the event and the enduring partnerships that contributes to its lasting success. Mr Mark Shaw, ORBA Chairman, said: “We are delighted to once again welcome both residents and visitors of all ages to Orchard Road to enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of Christmas on A Great Street. As we come together with friends and family during this festive season, we want to spread love, hope, and joy. Building on last year’s sustainability initiatives, ORBA remains committed to reducing our carbon footprint at this year’s festivities by reusing and repurposing decorations from past years. ” Mr Kojin Nakakita, Chairman of Hitachi Asia Ltd. , said: “The Christmas Light-Up along Orchard Road has always been the highlight of the year-end holiday season. Hitachi is honoured to be the main sponsor of this iconic celebration for 34 consecutive years. Each year, we look forward to spreading the festive cheer as visitors enjoy the radiant display of lights. It’s always a pleasure to bring people together in celebration! “Continuing our tradition of doing good for the community during this Season of Giving, Hitachi Asia and our Group of Companies have contributed to support the meaningful causes by the Community Chest. Beyond supporting charitable causes and simply spreading joy, we are also dedicated to improving the well-being of individuals in Singapore and Southeast Asia. Through utilising and integrating our Digital, Green and Innovative solutions, we aim to create a sustainable world for many generations to come. ” Ms Guo Teyi, Director, Retail & Dining, Singapore Tourism Board, said: “The Christmas Light-Up has been an annual signature event since 1984. Locals and visitors can look forward to evening strolls along Singapore’s iconic shopping street as it transforms into a mesmerising spectacle of festive lights. The return of the Christmas Eve Street Party and the new experiences at the Great Christmas Village coupled with year-end events and retail and dining offerings make Orchard Road a must-visit lifestyle destination that promises unforgettable moments this festive season. ” Guest-of-Honour President Tharman Shanmugaratnam will officiate the Light-Up Ceremony, which is organised by ORBA and Community Chest to raise funds for more than 100 social service agencies running over 200 social service programmes.

Meet Elizabeth Ng Ziqi, Primary 5 student from Casuarina Primary School, the first Singaporean to have her song, Space Nomad, broadcasted in space and her mother, Jesslyn Wong, Founder of Tabernacle Health Group (THG). Our editorial team met Elizabeth Ng Ziqi, a Primary 5 student from Casuarina Primary School, who made history by becoming the first Singaporean to have her song, "Space Nomad," broadcasted in space. Elizabeth is a bright young mind with big dreams of becoming Singapore's first astronaut. Together with her mother, Jesslyn Wong, who is the founder of Tabernacle Health Group (THG) and a trailblazer in the space industry, they inspire each other in their pursuits. In an exclusive interview, we sat down with both of them to learn more about their remarkable achievements. Q: Elizabeth, can you tell us a little about yourself and your journey in the space industry? Elizabeth Ng: I’m Elizabeth Ng, from Casuarina Primary School. I had the chance to visit Johnson Space Center and SpaceX, which was an incredible experience! Since I was young, I’ve been inspired by my mother, who works in the space industry, and I’ve always wanted to follow in her footsteps. I’m also excited about a new elective in spacecraft engineering starting at Singapore Polytechnic. Q: What challenges have you faced in pursuing your interest in space? Elizabeth Ng and Jesslyn Wong: One of the challenges is that there is a lack of curriculum in space studies here in Singapore. That’s why it’s great that we are starting this elective in Singapore Polytechnic to give students a chance to explore this field. Q: What was the most memorable part of your trip to the Johnson Space Center? Elizabeth Ng: One of the highlights was watching astronauts undergo microgravity and underwater training in a huge swimming pool. I also had the chance to see a decommissioned space shuttle and received an Apollo 11 lunar medal from the family of Buzz Aldrin! That was truly special. Q: Can you share with us the story behind your song, "Space Nomad," being broadcasted in space? Elizabeth Ng: I was playing with an AI module and came up with the melody. Using AI, I generated the lyrics, which I edited myself. My mother happened to have a project related to broadcasting on the International Space Station, so we used this music as part of the project. I’m really excited about it and hope it inspires other young people with similar interests. Q: Jesslyn, as Elizabeth’s mother, how have you supported her in her journey? Jesslyn Wong: Elizabeth has always been passionate about space, and I’ve done my best to support her by exposing her to opportunities. I also co-founded a startup, Wall Pie, where we work with organizations like SINDA and Mendaki to promote space education in Singapore. My goal is to foster a space ecosystem here and help students see a career path in this field. Paving the Way for Future Space Explorers As Singapore’s space industry is still in its infancy, experiences like Space Explorers: THE INFINITE and trailblazers like Elizabeth and Jesslyn are helping to build the foundation for future generations. With limited funding and few startups in the space sector, initiatives like these are vital to sparking interest and inspiring the next wave of explorers. Don’t miss your chance to embark on a space journey and be among the first in Southeast Asia to explore the final frontier! Get your tickets now for Space Explorers: THE INFINITE at Science Centre Singapore. Find out more and get your tickets at https://www. science. edu. sg/whats-on/space-explorers---the-infinite.

Located in the heart of the city, Fourgather introduces an array of new, tantalising dishes that capture the authentic flavours of Thailand. Whether you're craving the comforting warmth of Thai rice porridge or the rich, aromatic spices of a slow-braised pork knuckle, their new offerings promise to transport your taste buds to the streets of Thailand. What’s New at Fourgather One of the standout additions is the Pinto Thai Rice Porridge. This dish pays tribute to the cherished Thai tradition of the Pinto lunchbox, evoking the nostalgia of childhood memories. At Fourgather, diners are served a steamy pot of fragrant Pandan Jasmine Rice Porridge (S$5. 90++ ala carte) paired with a charming tiffin carrier filled with side dishes. From classic options like Fish Sausage Salad Yum, Thai Garlic Lime Pork (Moo Manao), and Steamed Pork Patty with Salted Fish (S$4. 90++ ala carte), to premium sides such as Fried Crispy Pork Belly with Fish Sauce and Thai Stir-Fried Garlic Prawns (S$6. 90 - $12. 90++ ala carte), this dish offers an unforgettable feast. For communal dining, the Pinto Thai Rice Porridge Set is available for two (S$23. 90++) or four (S$52. 90++), making it a perfect option for sharing with friends or family. L-R: Thai Crab Laksa (Kanom Jeen Puu), Slow Braised Pork Knuckle For those who adore laksa, the Thai Crab Laksa (Kanom Jeen Puu) (S$20. 90++) is a must-try. This rich, coconut curry noodle dish is a celebration of flavours, with tender chunks of blue flower crab, vibrant vegetables, and a subtle kick of spice, making it a crowd-pleaser for seafood lovers. Another noteworthy addition is the Slow Braised Pork Knuckle. Cooked with aromatic Thai spices and served with pickled vegetables, kai lan, and a tangy dipping sauce, this dish (S$26. 90++ ala carte or S$15. 90++ with rice) delivers melt-in-your-mouth tenderness and a burst of bold, addictive flavours. The combination of tender pork and the aromatic spices leaves a lasting impression. Creamy Lava Egg Served With A Basil or Garlic Protein (of your choice) If you’re looking for a unique egg dish, the Creamy Lava Egg Served with a Basil or Garlic Protein (of your choice) (S$15. 90 - S$35. 90++) is a must-try. The silky eggs cascade over fragrant jasmine rice, paired with your choice of protein, whether it's chicken, pork, prawns, or seafood. The eggs, paired with stir-fried fragrant Thai basil or garlic, create a perfect harmony of texture and flavour, making this dish a memorable experience. Spice enthusiasts can also customise their heat level, choosing from five different spice options to suit their preferences. Review: A Taste of Thailand in Every Bite During our recent visit to Fourgather, we were blown away by the attention to detail in both presentation and flavour. The Pinto Thai Rice Porridge was not just a meal; it was a nostalgic journey. The aromatic rice, paired with a delightful selection of sides, offered a comforting experience, especially the Fried Crispy Pork Belly which was perfectly seasoned and crispy on the outside while tender inside. The Thai Crab Laksa was another standout dish. The creamy coconut broth was packed with flavour, and the tender chunks of blue flower crab added a luxurious touch to this already decadent dish. It’s the perfect combination of spice and richness, offering an elevated twist on a classic laksa. Lastly, the Slow Braised Pork Knuckle was simply outstanding. The pork was fall-apart tender, with a perfect balance of sweet and savoury notes from the braising spices. The accompanying pickled vegetables added a tangy contrast that cut through the richness of the dish, creating a well-rounded flavour profile that lingered long after each bite. Overall, Fourgather’s new menu does an excellent job of highlighting the essence of Thai street food while adding their own modern touch. Whether you're a fan of traditional Thai flavours or looking to try something new, their latest offerings are sure to satisfy. Fourgather is located at 76 Telok Ayer Street #01-02 (Lobby of Amoy Hotel within Far East Square) Singapore 048464 and is open Monday-Saturday between 11. 30am - 11. 30pm. --- - Published: 2024-10-20 - Modified: 2024-11-28 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/gift-the-glow-discover-dr-hauschkas-christmas-sets/ - Categories: STYLE/BEAUTY - Tags: Dr. Hauschka, Dr. Hauschka’s Christmas Sets Looking for Christmas gifts?

Whether you are dealing with chronic skin conditions, seeking cosmetic enhancements, or aiming to maintain healthy skin, finding a qualified and experienced dermatologist can significantly impact your results. In this guide, we explore key factors to consider when selecting a skincare specialist, ensuring you make an informed decision that aligns with your unique requirements. Credentials and Qualifications Specialist Certification: The initial step in choosing a dermatologist is verifying their specialist certification and whether they have completed specialised training and rigorous exams, demonstrating expertise in diagnosing and treating various skin conditions. In Singapore, you can verify a doctor's credentials through the Singapore Medical Council's website. Experience: Experience plays a crucial role, particularly for treatments related to specific skin conditions or advanced cosmetic procedures. Look for a dermatologist with substantial experience in the areas relevant to your needs. For instance, if you are considering laser treatments, ensure the doctor has a proven track record in using this technology. Specialisation Area of Expertise: Dermatology encompasses diverse sub-specialties, including medical dermatology, cosmetic dermatology, and pediatric dermatology. Identifying your specific needs will help you select a doctor whose expertise matches your concerns. For example, a dermatologist specialising in cosmetic treatments will be proficient in procedures like Botox and fillers, while a medical dermatologist would excel in treating conditions such as eczema or psoriasis. Advanced Treatments: If you are interested in advanced treatments such as microneedling, radiofrequency therapy, or chemical peels, ensure the dermatologist has advanced training and experience in these procedures. Such treatments require skill to ensure both safety and effectiveness. Reputation and Reviews Patient Reviews: Online reviews and testimonials offer valuable insights into a dermatologist's practice. Look for feedback on the doctor’s communication, treatment effectiveness, and patient satisfaction. Websites like HealthHub Singapore and Google Reviews can provide helpful information. Recommendations: Seek recommendations from other healthcare professionals or trusted acquaintances who have had positive experiences with dermatologists. Personal referrals often lead to highly reputable specialists. Consultation and Communication Initial Consultation: Schedule an initial consultation to discuss your concerns and treatment options. This meeting allows you to evaluate the doctor's approach, communication style, and whether you feel comfortable with them. A good dermatologist will listen to your concerns, explain treatment options clearly, and address your questions thoroughly. Communication Style: Effective communication is crucial in healthcare. Ensure the dermatologist explains diagnoses, procedures, and treatment plans clearly. They should be patient, approachable, and willing to address any concerns you may have. Clinic Environment and Staff Facility: Visit the clinic to assess cleanliness, organisation, and the availability of modern equipment. A well-maintained clinic with up-to-date technology reflects professionalism. Staff: The professionalism and friendliness of clinic staff significantly contribute to your overall experience. Friendly staff can make your visits more pleasant. Cost and Insurance Costs: Understand consultation and treatment costs upfront. Clarify any hidden fees and inquire about payment plans before starting treatment. Insurance: Check if the dermatologist accepts your insurance plan and what portion of costs will be covered. This can minimise out-of-pocket expenses. Follow-Up Care Aftercare: Comprehensive follow-up care is essential for monitoring progress and managing any complications. Ensure the dermatologist offers post-treatment check-ups and ongoing support. Additional Tips Verify Credentials: Use resources like the Singapore Medical Council website to verify the dermatologist’s credentials and check for any disciplinary history. Professional Affiliations: Membership in professional organisations, such as the Dermatological Society of Singapore, indicates a commitment to staying updated with advancements in dermatology. Continuing Education: Dermatologists who participate in continuing education and attend professional conferences are more likely to be knowledgeable about the latest treatments and technologies. This ongoing education ensures they can offer the best possible care. Choosing the right dermatologist involves careful consideration of qualifications, experience, specialisation, reputation, and communication. By researching and evaluating potential doctors, you can find a dermatologist who meets your specific needs and provides excellent care. Your skin is important, and entrusting it to a skilled professional can lead to healthier, more radiant skin. Please visit the Dermatological Society of Singapore for more information. --- - Published: 2024-10-16 - Modified: 2024-10-16 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/oud-restaurant-celebrates-first-anniversary-with-a-fiery-new-menu-of-woodfire-grilled-specialties/ - Categories: DINING - Tags: Dining, OUD Restaurant, Wood-fired cuisine OUD Restaurant marks its first anniversary, continuing to delight Singaporeans with its flaming brand of halal, fun, and contemporary wood-fired cuisine.

Centred around a Year of Cultural Celebrations, Austria shines in 2025 as a global hub of cultural and culinary excellence. Visitors are invited to immerse themselves in the country’s rich heritage, experiencing world-renowned music, art, and gastronomy. From the 200th anniversary of Johann Strauss to iconic events like the Salzburg Festival and Sound of Music’s 60th Anniversary, 2025 promises a vibrant lineup of cultural experiences. Celebrating Culinary Excellence with the MICHELIN Guide Austria 2025 The launch of the MICHELIN Guide Austria 2025 marks a milestone for Austria’s culinary scene, reaffirming its global status as a top destination for gastronomy. The guide showcases Austria’s finest restaurants, from traditional Beisl specialties to contemporary cuisine. Partnering with Austrian Tourism and regional tourism associations, the guide promotes Austria’s rich culinary heritage and supports sustainable tourism. Available online, the MICHELIN Guide offers travellers a gateway to the country’s best dining experiences. 200 Years of the Waltz King: Johann Strauss and the UNESCO Intangible Heritage of the Viennese Waltz 2025 marks the 20th anniversary of Johann Strauss, the "Waltz King," whose music continues to define Vienna’s cultural identity. The Strauss Festival will bring the city to life with performances in iconic venues such as the Musikverein and the State Opera, ensuring that Austria’s musical legacy is celebrated in grand style. In November 2017, UNESCO recognised the Viennese waltz (both music and dance) as a UNESCO intangible cultural heritage. Strauss's "The Blue Danube," composed in 1866, is widely celebrated as the unofficial anthem of Austria. This enchanting waltz has become synonymous with Austrian culture, frequently gracing prestigious cultural events, including the New Year’s Concert by the Vienna Philharmonic. Sound of Music Diamond Jubilee Next year also marks the 60th anniversary of The Sound of Music, the most successful movie musical of all time. Fans can explore iconic filming locations in and around Salzburg, where special tours and events will celebrate this cinematic milestone. There is a special event planned that will feature new arrangements of the film’s beloved songs, performed by stars such as Babyface, Pentatonix, and Thalía. The jubilee celebrations will include a gala dinner attended by members of the Von Trapp family, and The Leopoldskron Palace, famously depicted as the Von Trapp home, will host a "Captain's Ball," adding a touch of elegance to the festivities. Salzburg and its surroundings, with their cinematic grandeur and alpine beauty, will provide the perfect backdrop for these commemorative events. Coffeehouse Culture in Austria: A UNESCO Intangible Heritage No visit to Austria is complete without experiencing the country's legendary coffeehouse culture. Austria's coffeehouse culture is a cherished tradition recognised as an Intangible Cultural Heritage by UNESCO since 2011. This cultural hallmark reflects the unique social and historical significance of Viennese coffeehouses, which have served as gathering places for intellectuals, artists, and the general public for over three centuries. With its origin dating back to 300 years ago, the Austrian Kaffeehaus remains an institution—a place where life unfolds at a leisurely pace. Stepping into one of these historic cafés is like entering a different era, where plush seating, marble tables, and the scrape of wooden chairs create an atmosphere of comfort and sophistication.

For 2024, its 12th edition, Halloween Horror Nights 12 (HHN12) takes fright to a new level, with a theme centered on dark dreams that blur the lines between reality and imagination. Running from 27 September to 2 November 2024, HHN12 offers an expanded lineup of haunted houses, scare zones, and immersive experiences, all promising to plunge visitors into an unforgettable night of terror. The Haunted Houses: Where Nightmares Come Alive This year’s HHN12 features four intricately designed haunted houses, each with its own dark and terrifying theme. Leading the lineup is Netflix’s Sweet Home, a fan-favourite from the streaming giant’s popular apocalyptic horror series. Visitors will traverse a post-apocalyptic world where monsters stalk every corner, and survival seems impossible. The atmospheric setting draws on the original show’s gripping intensity, making it a must-visit house for fans of the series and horror in general. Equally spine-chilling is Under the Castle, created by Team Wang Design. This haunted house delves into the eerie depths of a cursed fortress, where ancient evils lurk and nightmarish creatures reign. The artistry behind the visuals and the deeply unsettling atmosphere are bound to leave a lasting impression on visitors. Adding to the lineup is Cursed Scrolls: Dynasty of Darkness, a tale that pulls from rich Asian folklore, unraveling the mystery of an ancient scroll that releases a deadly curse. The attention to cultural elements, combined with gruesome effects, creates a deeply immersive experience that brings to life the rich horror of dynastic legends.

For visitors, this haunting is not just a brush with fiction, but with the supernatural tales that have echoed through Singapore’s corridors for years. Scare Zones: Terror in Every Step Once guests exit the haunted houses, they step into outdoor scare zones, each featuring fresh and terrifying themes. In Vampire Alley, visitors enter a dark world where vampires prowl the streets in search of their next prey. The eerie atmosphere, with gothic touches, keeps the suspense high as guests attempt to evade the bloodthirsty creatures lurking in the shadows. The Lost Kampung offers a more unsettling experience, transporting visitors to a cursed village. Here, haunted relics and vengeful spirits create a chilling atmosphere. Each twist in the path might lead to another ghostly encounter, deepening the eerie tension as the supernatural tale of this village unfolds. For a unique twist, Nether-Land is a rave party where the undead gather, swaying to hypnotic beats and voodoo-inspired rhythms. The vibrant lights and music bring a high-energy, yet spooky vibe to this zone. Sponsored by Tiger Soju Infused Lager, this area also includes the Tiger® Twisted Bar, where visitors can enjoy themed beverages to keep the party atmosphere alive while they continue to experience the night of terror. Live Shows: Frights and Entertainment Collide Three live shows take the terror up a notch, each providing a unique performance that complements the rest of the HHN12 experience. Night Terrors, a brand-new projection mapping show, combines high-tech visuals with the haunting figures of Asian folklore, creating a surreal spectacle that brings horror to life in the park’s Far Far Away zone. The combination of light, sound, and storytelling in this show promises to mesmerize and horrify guests in equal measure. Returning this year is the Dark Dreams show at the Pantages Theatre, where the story of the Dream Reaper unfolds. This terrifying character feeds on the nightmares of the innocent, pulling souls into a twisted nightmare realm. Featuring elaborate sets and special effects, this is one of the most immersive theatrical experiences of the event. Ocu. lar’s Rave rounds out the lineup with a unique dance performance where guests join the undead in a hypnotic, high-energy rave.

The Viper Lounge offers a unique break from the terror, with a sophisticated, haunting twist. Access to this lavish experience is available as an add-on (ranging from S$25–S$35 depending on the ticket package), offering a refined, spine-tingling complement to the evening’s horror festivities. A Must-Visit for Horror Enthusiasts Halloween Horror Nights 12 at Universal Studios Singapore is not just a Halloween event—it’s an immersive journey into the darkest corners of the imagination.

This spectacular display is inspired by Australia’s longest-running flower and most famous show, the Toowoomba Carnival of Flowers, and is presented in collaboration with the Toowoomba Regional Council. Known as the Garden City, Toowoomba’s reputation shines through in this event, featuring over 8,000 plants from 30 diverse varieties. Visitors can explore an array of exotic plants, many of which are native to Australia, with standout highlights including the kangaroo paw, grevillea, pink mulla mulla, and banksia. Exotic flora and spectacular floats Many Australian plants have unusual forms due to their adaptations to endure harsh environmental conditions such as arid climates, poor soil, and wildlife threats. The grevillea, for example, has a spider-like structure with long, nectar-rich styles replacing traditional petals, and the bottlebrush-resembling pink mulla mulla has cone-shaped, cylindrical flower heads densely packed with tiny, soft flowers. Visitors can also look forward to 14 different varieties of kangaroo paws – the largest selection ever on show – in uncommon hues like blue-green and purple. This whimsical plant has woolly, tubular flowers that resemble a kangaroo’s curved fingers. In a nod to the Toowoomba Carnival of Flowers’ annual float parade, there will be spectacular floral floats crafted from preserved flowers in the floral display alongside mini floats made by preschool children from TOUCH Child Care (Clementi) in their art class. These include a Ferris wheel more than 4m in height and a rotating carousel that breaks from tradition – the animals featured are those found on an Australian farm! The floral display will also be adorned with almost 400 wooden ornaments of Australian flora and fauna, such as kangaroos, echidnas, platypuses and eucalyptus leaves – jointly painted by students from Singapore’s Canberra Primary School and Toowoomba’s Rangeville State School, in a virtual collaboration. First Nations art and larger than life paper flowers Australia’s First Nations culture will be conveyed through art specially created by Toowoomba and Bunya Mountains artists for the floral display. The 3m-tall Genestreaming Journey Sculpture is a gift to Gardens by the Bay. The sculpture is a giant evolutionary tree highlighting deep time connections between species over millions of years. Shaped like a budding flower, it features First Nations art on the inside and naturalist art on the outside. It is a collaboration between artists Ben Beeton and Mali Moir, First Nations artists, engineers and Toowoomba artists. These sculptures are a nationwide initiative in Australia which celebrate First Nations culture, scientific discoveries, and conservation. This is the first time that a Genestreaming Journey Sculpture is being exhibited beyond Australian shores. It symbolises the friendship between Singapore and Australia. The second piece of art are digital artworks by Australia First Nations Mununjali artist Kim Walmsley, featuring her interpretation of Songlines – a route through landscapes that is embedded with the geographical, mythological, and cultural information of First Nations people. Her artwork will be showcased on areas such as the totem poles in the yarning circle – a traditional gathering place used by First Nations people to share their experiences and build relationships – recreated in the floral display. The floral display also features larger-than-life sculptures of native Australian blooms crafted from paper and other materials by Singaporean paper artist Pei Li (also known as PeiPer). This is her first exploration of Australia’s unique flora, including the Golden Wattle, the country’s national flower known for its fluffy, brush-like appearance. Each flower of the Golden Wattle has approximately 1,680 stamens, and Pei Li meticulously sculpted each stamen from a mix of thread, clay and wire, then colour-sprayed them individually, before fixing them to the core.

A recent study by the Institute of Mental Health (IMH) highlights the urgency of this initiative, revealing that one in three young people aged 15 to 35 in Singapore have experienced severe symptoms of depression, anxiety, and/or stress. With ‘Lovin’ Me,’ McDonald’s Singapore is stepping up to create a safe and supportive platform for youth to embrace their emotions and seek help. ‘Lovin’ Me’ Anthem – A Celebration of Self-Love At the heart of the initiative is the ‘Lovin’ Me’ anthem, an original song and music video that captures the emotional journey of youth. With lyrics centred on self-love, resilience and acceptance, the anthem serves as a powerful rallying cry for young people to embrace and love their unique selves. The track, led by local singer-songwriter Haneri (Daphne Khoo) and featuring rising youth talents WHYLUCAS (Lucas Yong) and LAYYI (Esther Lo), is an embodiment of the initiative’s message of empowerment, affirming that it’s okay to not be okay. “At McDonald’s, we believe in supporting the communities we serve, and that includes our youth who are at the heart of Singapore’s future. With ‘Lovin’ Me’, we want to create a safe space where youth feel seen, heard, and uplifted. We hope to inspire a community that prioritises mental well-being and empowers youth to embrace who they are while seeking the emotional support they need,” said Benjamin Boh, Managing Director of McDonald’s Singapore. ‘Lovin’ Me’ Conversations – Normalising Mental Health Talk To encourage open dialogue about mental health, McDonald’s will also launch the ‘Lovin’ Me’ Conversations podcast series this November, hosted by Haneri (Daphne Khoo). Featuring mental health advocates and experts, the series will discuss key issues impacting youth today, providing actionable insights and helping normalise these crucial conversations. ‘Lovin’ Me’ Playbook – A Mental Wellness Toolkit Understanding that everyone’s mental wellness journey is unique, the ‘Lovin’ Me’ Playbook offers a tailored toolkit for young people, providing everything from a curated selection of mental health resources to shareable messages to spread awareness. The Playbook is a one-stop digital guide designed to meet youth wherever they are on their mental wellness journey, equipping them with the tools they need for self-care or supporting a friend in need. ‘Lovin’ Me’ Reminders - Small Reminders, Big Impact To keep the spirit of self-love alive in everyday moments, ‘Lovin’ Me’ Reminders featuring uplifting illustrations and lyrics from the initiative’s anthem will also be introduced. Sticker sheets will be available as digital downloads, for both laptops and mobile devices, serving as simple yet impactful reminders for youth to practise self-love and self-care, whether at home, in school, or on the go. “Empowering youths with the tools for mental wellness and self-care is important. These are the foundations on which they build their futures, and by prioritising them, we create a healthier, more resilient generation. Parents play a key role in this by fostering open communication, actively listening, and encouraging healthy habits in their teenage children,” said Dr Lim Choon Guan, Chief of Department of Developmental Psychiatry, Institute of Mental Health. ‘Lovin’ Me’ Sticker Sheets An Initiative for Youth, by Youth Building on the success of last year’s “Feelings Cards,” which helped younger children articulate their emotions, this initiative now extends its focus to teens and young adults, acknowledging the mental health challenges faced by youth today. Authenticity lies at the heart of the ‘Lovin’ Me’ initiative, which has been shaped by insights gathered from youth focus groups. The concept emerged during ‘The Media Challenge 2024’, an annual inter-student competition organised by Republic Polytechnic’s School of Business and the Diploma in Mass Communication. The competition brought together participants from various secondary schools to tackle a brief centred on promoting youth mental wellness in Singapore. "As youth, we’re constantly juggling academic and career pressures, often at the expense of our mental and physical health. ‘Lovin’ Me’ is a powerful reminder that self-love isn’t just essential – it’s the first step to building mental resilience,” said How Jing Yi, a Republic Polytechnic student and focus group participant. McDonald’s Singapore invites everyone to join the ‘Lovin’ Me’ movement. Watch the ‘Lovin’ Me’ music video on YouTube, download the ‘Lovin’ Me’ sticker sheets, explore the ‘Lovin’ Me’ Playbook, and tune into the upcoming ‘Lovin’ Me’ podcast series to keep the conversation going.

Her powerhouse vocals, rich with emotion and strength, brought an intensity to every note she sang. Despite the undeniable force of her voice, Lee kept things lighthearted by joking with the crowd, acknowledging that her singing might feel overwhelming to some, but her humour and self-assured presence made her all the more captivating. She kicked off her set with high-energy performances of hits such as "大火" delivering each song with technical precision and deep emotional resonance. As the concert progressed, Jess Lee treated fans to a heartfelt and unexpected moment. She invited her sister, 李佳欢, to join her on stage for a duet of the emotionally stirring song "有一种悲伤.

Their harmonies blended beautifully, with the strength of one complementing the softness of the other. This duet added a unique, personal touch to the evening, as the emotional weight of the song, coupled with their familial connection, made the performance even more impactful.

The crowd was particularly enchanted by his romantic ballad "May I Love You," a song that swept through the venue like a gentle breeze, with fans swaying softly to its soothing melody. However, it was his haunting rendition of "凌晨三点钟" that truly captured the audience's attention. The ballad’s delicate composition, paired with Z-Chen’s emotive delivery, filled the hall with a reflective calm, perfectly evoking the quiet, contemplative mood of late-night solitude. The melancholy undertones of the song resonated with everyone, leaving a lasting impression as it wrapped the audience in a serene, almost meditative state. His set was a journey of emotion and nostalgia, marking his 25 years with both reflection and celebration.

Known for her witty banter and larger-than-life presence, she had the audience laughing and fully engaged between her performances, effortlessly blending humour with music. Her warmth and charm made her more than just a singer—it felt as though she was connecting with the audience on a personal level. Her confidence was undeniable, and her playful jokes only added to the lively atmosphere. When she launched into classics like "我的心里只有你没有他," the upbeat "热情的沙漠," and the heartfelt ballad "心愛的人," the crowd’s enthusiasm was infectious. Fans eagerly joined in, creating a joyous sing-along that echoed throughout the venue, with many waving their arms and singing in unison, a testament to her enduring popularity and her ability to captivate an audience. The highlight of her set was undoubtedly her signature ballad, "没那么简单. " As the familiar opening notes began, the crowd collectively raised their light sticks, swaying gently to the rhythm. The song, a bittersweet anthem of life and love, holds a special place in the hearts of her fans, and her heartfelt rendition stirred deep emotions. Her voice, rich in texture and emotion, conveyed both vulnerability and strength, capturing the essence of the song’s message. It was a moment of unity, as everyone in the room seemed to be immersed in the music, reflecting on their own experiences through her voice. With both humor and the ability to deeply move her audience, Tiger Huang once again proved why she remains a beloved icon in the music industry, leaving a lasting impression on all who attended.

The crowd’s emotional response was palpable, and Eric Moo’s energy never wavered, ensuring there wasn’t a dull moment throughout his performance.

Catering to both primary and secondary students, their programs are designed to match each student’s ability and learning style. With small class sizes and a curriculum that covers key areas like creative writing, comprehension, and oral communication, Writers Studio aims to support students in reaching their academic goals, including preparing for exams like the PSLE and O-levels, while fostering confidence in their communication abilities. We spoke to Carean Oh, Founder of Writers Studio School of English, to learn more about her journey, the inspiration behind establishing a school focused solely on English education, and how her passion for language has shaped the unique teaching approach at Writers Studio. Read on to find out more. Interview with Carean Oh, Founder of Writers Studio School of English 1. Can you tell us more about your background and what inspired you to set up Writers Studio School of English specialising in teaching English only instead of expanding to other subjects like Maths and Science? Carean Oh: I was a Science and English specialist and was chosen by my principal from the Gifted Education branch at the Ministry of Education to study science teaching methods in New York. I later led the science department at a local primary school. Although I excelled in science, my true passion lay in English. This led me to pursue a master's in creative writing in the US. Initially, I began with two subjects—English and Science. The science students consistently achieved high grades, earning A and A*. However, as I developed innovative materials and effective training methods for English, it became clear my focus should shift entirely to this subject. After ensuring my final batch of science students attained ideal scores and secured placements in prestigious schools, I decided to concentrate exclusively on English. This shift allowed me to create a specialised environment to help students excel in various aspects of English, fostering their growth and success in a subject I am deeply passionate about. 2. How do you go about designing the syllabus and teaching materials for various levels and ensuring the quality of teaching is consistent across all levels? Carean Oh: My team and I stay consistently informed about the latest educational trends. With over 22 years of experience teaching English, I ensure that our syllabus and teaching materials have relevant learning objectives for each level. Our curriculum is designed to gradually build students' skills, with ample practice sessions to reinforce and further develop their understanding of key concepts. Over time, we have expanded our programme offerings to better meet the diverse needs of our students. This focus allows us to maintain the quality of our curriculum. Currently, we offer the following programmes: Twinkle STARS: K2 This programme focuses on building foundational reading and writing skills through engaging activities. Students learn grammar, spelling, and vocabulary. Since its launch in 2012, many of our younger students have benefited from this programme and continued with us as long-term learners. STELLAR Integrated Creative Writing: Primary 1 – Primary 6 Developed in 2010, this programme was created for students who went on to achieve distinctions in their PSLE. It takes a comprehensive approach to learning, improving creative writing while also enhancing grammar, vocabulary, reading comprehension, sentence structure, spelling, and word awareness. This method empowers students to write well-structured pieces aligned with specific themes. STARBRIGHT Creative Writing: K2 – Primary 6 This creative writing programme helps children craft personalised writing pieces using structured guidelines, guided by our teachers. It is designed for students interested in reading and writing, those aspiring to be writers, students who struggle with generating ideas, and those who wish to benefit from creative writing. STARLITE Online Creative Writing: Primary 2 – Primary 5 This online programme uses stimulating and interactive exercises to strengthen children’s creative writing abilities. As they develop their writing skills, their vocabulary is enriched, and they learn to craft personalised works that reflect their unique voices. By focusing on reading and writing, the programme fosters imagination and helps students confidently bring their ideas to life, empowering them to create original, meaningful pieces. STARDREAM: Secondary 1 – Secondary 4 This programme continues the journey by deepening students' language comprehension and strengthening their skills in preparation for tertiary education. We have a large secondary school cohort. With intricate teaching and mentoring efforts by our dedicated Secondary School teachers, our students are able to obtain places in their ideal junior colleges and tertiary institutions when they graduate. Within a year of their enrolment, the scores of our students usually improve and their performance in school stabilised with more consistency. This enables them to tackle other subjects with a peace of mind. See here for more information on our courses: https://www. writerstudio. com. sg/courses/ We maintain the consistency and quality of our teaching and materials through teacher training, regular reviews, lesson observations, and feedback systems. 3. What is heart-based education and why do you think this is the way to go for the future generations? Carean Oh: At Writers Studio School of English, we prioritise a personalised, heart-centred approach to education. Our passionate teachers provide attentive instruction, creating a nurturing and dynamic environment where children can thrive academically and emotionally. In Singapore’s primary school system, our MOE-registered teachers understand the unique needs and challenges faced by young learners. We focus on building a strong foundation in English and creative writing, going beyond traditional methods by tailoring our approach to each child. This allows us to address individual learning gaps and provide targeted guidance. Our aim is to equip students with the skills to excel in English and creative writing, while fostering confidence and a love for language. Through compassionate teaching and a deep understanding of primary education, we help students express themselves creatively and effectively. 4.

Specially formulated for the hot and humid Southeast Asian climate, this new range of products aims to meet the growing demand for gentle yet effective hair care solutions that cater to all hair types, including children. Introducing the Black Silk Hair Collection The Black Silk Hair Collection features three signature products: Black Silk Anti Hair Loss Shampoo, Black Silk Hair Mask, and Black Silk Hair Oil. Each product is crafted with high-quality ingredients and is free from Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) and Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate (SLES), ensuring a gentle experience for consumers seeking nourishment, protection, and strength. Black Silk Anti Hair Loss Shampoo: A Gentle Cleansing Solution The Black Silk Anti Hair Loss Shampoo offers a mild yet effective cleanse. Powered by ingredients like Cocamidopropyl Betaine and Sodium Cocoyl Glycinate, both derived from coconut oil and amino acids, this shampoo gently cleanses without stripping the hair and scalp of natural oils, making it ideal for sensitive scalps. It includes Diaminopyrimidine Oxide, a hair-strengthening agent known to support healthier growth and reduce hair loss. Additionally, Biota Orientalis Leaf Extract helps support scalp health, enhancing hair strength. This shampoo is suitable for daily use and designed with Southeast Asia's challenging climate in mind. Black Silk Hair Mask: Intensive Care for Dry, Damaged Hair The Black Silk Hair Mask provides deep nourishment and protection, infused with Sargassum Pallidum (Seaweed) Extract to hydrate the hair and shield it from environmental stressors. Its silicone blend, featuring Cyclopentasiloxane, Amodimethicone, and Dimethicone, smooths and detangles hair, ensuring a sleek, frizz-free look. Conditioning agents like Cetyl Alcohol, Cetearyl Alcohol, Isopropyl Palmitate, and Steartrimonium Chloride deliver intense moisture, leaving hair feeling soft and rejuvenated. This mask is ideal for those with dry or damaged hair seeking a luxurious treatment that restores smoothness and shine. Black Silk Hair Oil: Lightweight, Silky Shine, Ultimate Moisturization and Hair Growth Support For ultimate hydration and shine, the Black Silk Hair Oil combines advanced silicone technology with nourishing oils. Ingredients like Cyclopentasiloxane, Dimethicone, and Dimethiconol ensure a non-greasy finish, smoothing the hair cuticle and eliminating frizz. Enriched with Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) and Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, these oils deeply nourish each strand, reducing breakage while promoting a healthy scalp. Isopropyl Myristate ensures fast absorption, leaving hair feeling soft, silky, and manageable without weighing it down. Our Experience with the Black Silk Hair Collection After using the Black Silk Hair Collection, we were impressed by the balance it strikes between gentleness and effectiveness. Each product in the range works harmoniously to nourish and protect the hair, making it suitable for various hair types, including those with sensitive scalps or experiencing hair loss. Starting with the Black Silk Anti Hair Loss Shampoo, the experience is refreshing from the first use. It has a mild formula that cleanses the scalp thoroughly without stripping away essential moisture. Unlike harsher shampoos that can leave the scalp feeling tight or dry, this one maintains a natural balance, which is especially important for those prone to irritation. The shampoo’s gentle lather feels light, yet it provides a deep clean that rejuvenates the scalp and hair. Over time, regular use seems to strengthen the hair, reducing breakage and improving overall appearance. The formula's use of plant-based ingredients makes it a great daily option for those looking to enhance scalp health without harsh chemicals. The Black Silk Hair Mask is the standout for deep conditioning. For those dealing with dry or damaged hair, this mask delivers a substantial moisture boost. What sets it apart is its ability to hydrate without weighing the hair down, essential for maintaining volume and movement. The formula sinks into each strand, leaving the hair feeling soft, smooth, and noticeably less frizzy. After just one use, the mask makes detangling much easier, and with consistent use, the improvement in hair texture is clear. This product is ideal for anyone looking to restore vitality and shine, particularly in the face of environmental stressors like heat and humidity. In the long run, it helps protect the hair from further damage, making it a staple in any hair care routine. The Black Silk Hair Oil complements the collection beautifully. It’s incredibly lightweight, a quality that many hair oils struggle to achieve. Instead of sitting on the surface and feeling greasy, this oil absorbs quickly, leaving hair feeling soft and nourished throughout the day. The addition of natural oils, such as sunflower and jojoba, gives it a nurturing quality that works well for dry, brittle hair.

With the projection of heart attacks in Singapore set to nearly triple by 2050, it is more important than ever to rally Singaporeans to take proactive steps in reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Dedicated to raising the awareness about CVD, the importance of prevention and encouraging heart-health behaviours, WHD is celebrated annually on 29 September by over 100 member associations of the World Heart Federation globally. In Singapore, it coincides with National Heart Week, organised by the Singapore Heart Foundation (SHF). Featuring the Limbang-SHF Health Carnival on 28 September, the event offers the public a variety of initiatives, including cooking demonstrations to prepare healthier food options, heart screenings, and mass workouts, to inspire healthier lifestyles. CVD are often linked to modifiable risk factors such as high blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood glucose levels, also known as ‘metabolic syndrome’, a cluster of conditions that occur together, increasing the risk of heart disease, stroke and type 2 diabetes. A diet high in sugar, saturated fats and sodium, along with low fruit and vegetable intake have been linked to the risk of CVD. The choice to include nutrient-rich foods in daily diets has an important role in protective heart health, and reducing risks. NUTRISOY supports the belief that heart-health is an ongoing commitment by making its range of convenient, healthier choice plant-based drinks accessible and an enjoyable part of daily life. A trusted ally in maintaining heart health, NUTRISOY’s range of beverages, including NUTRISOY Fresh Soya Milk Omega No Sugar Added, is designed to support consumers in pursuit of healthy living, maintaining good cardiovascular function and overall wellness. Crafted with premium, non-genetically modified soybeans, NUTRISOY’s nutrient-rich offerings are free from added preservatives. Naturally cholesterol-free, with a low glycemic index, it provides a simple yet nutritious option for individuals to incorporate functional foods and nutrition into everyday life. Enriched with omega-3 fatty acids, specifically alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), derived from flaxseed and not synthesised by the body, NUTRISOY, together with a healthy diet, helps reduce triglycerides, lower inflammation, increase "good" HDL cholesterol, decrease blood clotting, and prevent irregular heart rhythms. Each serving (250ml) delivers a substantial portion of the recommended daily intake of omega-3, meeting a significant portion of the recommended daily intake for both adult males and females. Soybeans are a nutritional powerhouse, being one of the plant-based proteins that provides a complete profile of all nine essential amino acids. With each serving containing the protein equivalent to 1. 5 eggs, it is a valuable option for muscle maintenance, cell repair, and overall vitality. The presence of soy protein and isoflavones has also been shown to help lower cholesterol levels, further reducing the risk of heart disease, and supporting overall well-being. In addition, soybeans provide a well-balanced profile of essential nutrients such as iron, phosphorus, B vitamins, and zinc. The comprehensive nutritional benefits of NUTRISOY Fresh Soya Milk Omega No Sugar Added is fortified with calcium, providing the equivalent of two glasses of milk per serving, along with vitamin D3 to support bone health and immunity. Together, these minerals make this nutrient-rich drink an ideal choice for individuals looking to better manage both heart health and blood sugar levels. Recognised as a Healthier Choice by the Health Promotion Board (HPB) and Heart Friendly by SHF, NUTRISOY Fresh Soya Milk Omega No Sugar Added received a Nutri-Grade A rating, demonstrating its commitment to providing healthier options for consumers. Lactose-free, halal-certified, and vegan-friendly, NUTRISOY remains a convenient, versatile, and nutritious choice for individuals from all walks of life to incorporate the essential nutrients needed by the body into one’s daily routine and priority to heart health. NUTRISOY Fresh Soya Milk Omega No Sugar Added can be found at all leading supermarkets, hypermarkets and convenience stores island-wide at a Recommended Selling Price of S$2. 98 per 946ml pack. 475ml packs are also retailed at S$1. 87 each. NUTRISOY is proud to support WHD by encouraging Singaporeans to adopt small but impactful changes that can protect one’s heart. By incorporating heart-healthy foods like soy milk into daily diets, individuals can take meaningful steps towards reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases and living the best lives.

Based on the theme, “Kampung Spirit”, the two-day event will celebrate the art of sustainable living while raising funds for underprivileged children through the Young Hearts Programme. Date : 16 & 17 November 2024 Time : 11am to 7pm Venue : South Beach, 38 Beach Road, Singapore 189763 Website / IG : www. sustainablechristmas. sg / @sustainablechristmas. sg Beneficiary : Underprivileged children of Young Hearts living in Singapore’s public rental housing (by Singapore Red Cross) Organised by Peace of Art, the event brings Singapore’s vibrant kampung spirit and culture to life – uniting generations. In addition to a plethora of eco-friendly workshops, sustainably made products and delectable food stalls that have become the hallmark of the Sustainable Christmas Market, two key initiatives have been launched to promote compassion and collaboration within our community. 1. KIDSforKIDS – A NEW ADDITION – INVITES BUDDING KID-PRENEURS TO PARTICIPATE At the heart of this year’s event, a new segment has been added to the Sustainable Christmas Market. KIDSforKIDS aims to empower and raise a generation of givers and changemakers. The market invites kid-prenuers to young entrepreneurs (aged 3-21 years) to set up their stalls at the market to sell eco-conscious products, lead workshops, exhibit their creative artworks for sale or perform at the KIDSforKIDS showcase. KIDSforKIDS booth applications are open from now till 15 October 2024. More information can be found here. 2. DECLUTTER & DONATE: COLLECTION FROM 1 OCT – 1 NOV 100% Impact Returning this year is the nationwide campaign to collect preloved items, including: Toys Kids' books Luxury fashion and accessories Tech devices All items will be curated for sale at the preloved bazaar at the Christmas Market. Details on the campaign and drop-off locations can be found here. 100% Impact 100% of the sales proceeds and donations for the Sustainable Christmas Market, including the KIDSforKIDS and Declutter & Donate initiatives, directly aid the beneficiary. Peace of Art’s Ethos: The Democratisation of Philanthropy Peace of Art empowers individuals and businesses to fundraise for the underprivileged through unique events like the Sustainable Christmas Market. The Democratisation of Philanthropy encourages people from all backgrounds to contribute to societal welfare. The Sustainable Markets signify a shift in charitable giving from an exclusive, top-down approach to an inclusive, impactful and community-focused one. Mrs Eunice Yeo, Founder of Peace of Art, said, “More than just an event, the Sustainable Christmas Market is a transformative movement that gives every Singaporean a chance to be a fundraiser for the underprivileged. It is charitable giving that showcases the power of collective action, embodying the true spirit of community and shared responsibility – our kampung spirit! The art of sustainable living is living a good life but sustainably. Even the littlest can be a giver and a changemaker. We hope to inspire individuals from all walks of life to participate and join us as we give every child a chance regardless of background or circumstance. ” This year’s event aims to raise over S$350,000 for the Singapore Red Cross Young Hearts programme, which provides academic support and mentorship for children living in Singapore’s public rental flats. If successful, this would bring Peace of Arts’ total fundraising to over S$1 million since its first Sustainable Christmas Wreath Workshop in 2021. --- - Published: 2024-09-20 - Modified: 2024-09-20 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/amanda-fashion-gallery-unveils-the-exquisite-and-elegant-%e3%80%8a%e5%9b%8d%e3%80%8b-xi-collection/ - Categories: STYLE/BEAUTY - Tags: 《囍》 Xi Collection, Amanda Fashion Gallery, Fashion, Style Amanda Fashion Gallery has launched its latest fashion line, the《囍》 Xi Collection.

Its progress reflects the close collaboration between our public and private sectors. As we gather for the 8th edition of the Singapore River Festival, we celebrate not just the river's rich heritage but the shared efforts that have driven its development and fueled economic growth,” said Associate Professor Muhammad Faishal Ibrahim, Minister of State for Home Affairs & National Development.

In response, LISTERINE®, the world’s leading mouthwash brand, has introduced a groundbreaking solution: LISTERINE® Total Care Cavity Protect Mild Taste. This new mouthwash is specially formulated with fluoride, xylitol and unique essential oils, designed to offer superior cavity protection while maintaining a pleasant taste. It is alcohol-free, catering to those who prioritise both efficacy and comfort in their oral care routine. The Importance of Cavity Protection Cavities are more than just a minor inconvenience; they pose serious risks to both adults and children. Despite regular brushing and flossing, these actions alone may not be enough to combat the rapid build-up of plaque, which can lead to cavities and other oral health issues. Cavities form when bacteria in plaque produce acids that erode tooth enamel, causing small holes to develop. If left untreated, these small holes, or cavities, can lead to more severe dental problems. In a country like Singapore, where dessert consumption and sugary treats are on the rise, finding an effective oral care solution is crucial. LISTERINE® Total Care Cavity Protect Mild Taste addresses this need, allowing individuals to indulge their sweet cravings without compromising their dental health. The Science Behind LISTERINE® Total Care Cavity Protect Mild Taste What sets LISTERINE® Total Care Cavity Protect Mild Taste apart from other mouthwashes is its innovative combination of ingredients and technology. Formulated with essential oils and zero alcohol, it includes fluoride and xylitol, two critical components for fighting cavities. Moreover, it features Rapid Fusion Technology, designed to enhance the mouthwash’s effectiveness by boosting fluoride uptake by up to 18%, offering seven times more cavity protection. The mild black ice mint flavor makes this product enjoyable for daily use, removing one of the primary barriers people face when using mouthwash. Its ability to reach difficult areas of the mouth ensures it kills 99. 9% of germs responsible for bad breath, plaque, and gum problems, promoting complete oral health protection.

Fans had eagerly awaited this iconic collaboration, and the concert certainly delivered. With a seamless blend of vocal prowess and electrifying stage presence, it was a night that showcased the best of Mandarin pop. The concert was everything fans of the genre had been longing for – an unforgettable mix of contemporary hits and nostalgic classics, highlighted by powerful performances and emotional connections. While Ella and Wei Li-An didn’t directly interact during the show, their distinctly different styles complemented each other beautifully. Ella commanded the stage with her infectious energy and high-octane performances that captivated the audience. In contrast, Wei Li-An’s soulful and emotive ballads fostered an intimate connection with the crowd, drawing them in with his heartfelt lyrics and smooth vocals. Together, these contrasting elements harmonised perfectly, resulting in a dynamic concert experience that kept the audience engaged from start to finish. The vibrant atmosphere and seamless flow between their performances created a musical journey that resonated deeply with every fan in attendance. Wei Li-An Captivated Audience with Soulful Melodies Wei Li-An opened the night with a collection of his beloved classics, immediately winning over the audience with his signature tracks such as (女孩), (世界上最重要的人), and (因为爱). His smooth vocals and heartfelt delivery set the tone for the evening. In a lighthearted moment, Wei Li-An addressed Singapore’s famously humid weather with a humorous touch. Explaining his choice of a sleeveless outfit, he quipped, "The venue may be cool, but your enthusiasm is what’s keeping me warm! " His sense of fun shone through as he continued, jokingly flexing his arms while singing and saying, "I hope you appreciate the effort I put into showing off my arms tonight. If you didn’t notice, I’d be sad! " His playful banter not only lightened the mood but also endeared him to the crowd, creating a personal connection with his fans. One of the standout moments of Wei Li-An’s performance was his tender rendition of Stefanie Sun’s hit song (遇见). This particular performance carried a deeper significance, as he shared the touching story of two fans, one from Hong Kong and the other from Singapore, who met at one of his concerts and maintained a long-distance relationship. The couple is now getting married, and Wei Li-An dedicated the song to them, revealing that it was the first time he performed (遇见) in seven years, making the tribute even more meaningful. As his performance came to a close, Wei Li-An gave a glimpse of his packed schedule, mentioning that he would fly to Changsha, China, immediately after the concert to continue filming Call Me By Fire 4 (披荆斩棘4). Despite the demands of his packed calendar, his passion for music remained undiminished, and he took a moment to thank his fans for their unwavering support. Encouraging them to keep watching his performances, he promised to continue giving his all on every stage he performs. Electrifying Performances by Ella Chen Taking the stage in a bright yellow summer dress that was specially chosen for Singapore, Ella brought infectious energy with her two new tracks, 《废》和 “Hot Like Chilli”. She looked radiant and told the audience that her outfit represented the sunny and cheerful vibe of Singapore. Ella shared her joy at returning to Singapore after nine years, reminiscing about a thoughtful fan who greeted her at the airport with Kaya toast from Ya Kun and how she had four soft-boiled eggs for breakfast, small yet meaningful moments that made her feel welcomed. In a nostalgic tribute to Mandopop’s golden era, Ella performed Stefanie Sun’s (天黑黑), expressing her admiration for the singer’s sincerity and emotional style. She reflected on the period when artists like Stefanie Sun, Jay Chou, Jolin Tsai, and her own group, S. H. E. , dominated the charts, saying, “I feel so lucky to have been part of that era. ” Ella’s songs list also included timeless classics such as (花心), (用心良苦), and (你知道我在等你吗), as well as her own solo hits and beloved S. H. E. tracks like (热带雨林), 《中国话》, and more. Reflecting on her career, Ella shared that she was proud to represent "courage" during her time with S. H. E. “In moments of vulnerability, you slowly discover confidence. Every version of you is your most confident self," she said, encouraging the audience to embrace all aspects of themselves. An Unforgettable Concert Ella concluded the concert with her hit song (来个蹦蹦), leaving fans wanting more. Despite the crowd’s enthusiastic chants of “Encore! ”, the concert officially ended on a high note, with the audience still buzzing from the dynamic performances. The "Powerhouse LIVE Concert – 2人世界" was a celebration of nostalgia, emotion, and energy, showcasing both Wei Li-An’s heartfelt ballads and Ella’s electrifying stage presence. The concert offered a perfect blend of new hits and beloved classics, leaving fans with unforgettable memories.

Concurrently serving as the Culinary Director, The Brewerkz Group & Café Iguana and with a background that includes Executive Head Chef at Fullerton 1919 Waterboat House and stints at the highly acclaimed Les Amis and Le Saint Julien, Chef TQ’s extensive experience is evident in every dish.

His mission is to take diners on a sensory adventure, exploring the heart of Southeast Asian flavours while infusing delicate nuances of Western cuisine. A 7-Course Symphony of Flavours During our recent visit, we indulged in a 7-course menu that showcased Chef TQ’s culinary mastery. Each course was thoughtfully curated, offering a harmonious blend of traditional and modern influences. Here’s a glimpse of our extraordinary culinary journey at Jiak Kim House : First course: Mushroom Soup and Bolo Fun - The meal begins with a rich and velvety Mushroom Soup, showcasing the earthy depth of fresh mushrooms blended to perfection. The soup is hearty yet refined, striking a delicate balance between creamy and flavourful. Paired with the Bolo Bun, a golden, crispy top contrasts beautifully with the soft, fluffy bread beneath. This bite-sized combination delivers a delightful explosion of flavours and textures in every mouthful, offering a warm and inviting start to the dining experience. Second Course: Tingkat of Memories - Spanish Mackerel Otak Otak, Green Curry 7 - Herbed Crab Cake, Assam Mayo. The Tingkat of Memories is a thoughtfully curated dish that not only pays homage to tradition but also elevates it with modern culinary flair. The Spanish Mackerel Otak Otak features a rich blend of fragrant Southeast Asian spices, creating a smoky and aromatic flavour profile. The Herbed Crab Cake offers a contrasting yet complementary bite. Fresh crab meat is seasoned with a medley of herbs and spices, then seared to a golden crisp. Paired with the tangy and slightly spicy Assam Mayo, the crab cake provides a zesty kick that excites the palate. The dish is beautifully plated, with each element thoughtfully arranged, showcasing both the freshness of seasonal ingredients and the artistry of the kitchen. This course encapsulates the essence of fusion cuisine, blending traditional flavours with contemporary techniques for a truly memorable experience. Third course: Herbal Scallops Beurre Blanc - Hokkaido Scallops, Angelica Root, Rice Puffs, Ikura, Dashi Beurre Blanc. This course offers a harmonious blend of textures and flavours, showcasing the impeccable quality of Hokkaido Scallops. Seared to perfection, the scallops boast a delicate golden crust that locks in their natural sweetness and tenderness. Complemented by the subtle, earthy notes of Angelica Root, each bite brings a refined herbaceous undertone that elevates the dish to new heights. The addition of Rice Puffs adds a delightful crunch, offering a playful contrast to the scallops’ softness. The briny burst of Ikura (salmon roe) introduces a burst of umami that dances across the palate, while the Dashi Beurre Blanc—a luscious, rich sauce made by blending classic French beurre blanc with the savoury depth of Japanese dashi—ties all the components together. This velvety sauce not only amplifies the flavours of the scallops but also provides a comforting richness that warms the palate. Fourth course: Chilled Crab and Jellyfish - Alaskan King Crab, Shredded Jellyfish, Soursop Sorbet, Thai Green Pepper Sauce. The Chilled Crab and Jellyfish, is a masterclass in balancing textures and flavours, offering a refreshing take on seafood. The star of the dish, Alaskan King Crab, is tender and sweet, providing a luxurious bite that pairs beautifully with the Shredded Jellyfish, known for its satisfying crunch. The combination of these two seafood delights sets a perfect foundation for the dish, showcasing Chef TQ’s ability to harmonise diverse ingredients into a cohesive experience. Adding a unique twist to this dish is the tangy Soursop Sorbet, which not only cleanses the palate but also adds a bright, tropical sweetness that contrasts wonderfully with the seafood. To round it off, the Thai Green Pepper Sauce introduces a touch of heat, infusing the dish with a subtle spiciness that complements the sweetness of the crab. The result is a delicate yet flavour-packed course that prepares the palate for the more robust dishes that follow. Fifth Course: Kam Heong Sambal Grouper – Live Tiger Grouper, Black Pepper Sambal, Cilantro Rice, Mangosteen Salsa.

This year’s festival promises an unforgettable gastronomic experience featuring exquisite eel dishes prepared in four distinctive styles. These delicacies pay homage to the rich culinary heritage of Fujian, while introducing new and exciting flavours to tantalise your taste buds. A Value-Driven Dining Experience As of August 20, 2024, PUTIEN has permanently absorbed the 9% Goods & Services Tax (GST) and waived the 10% service charge for both dine-in and takeaway customers at all outlets. With nett pricing, diners can now enjoy their favourite dishes with enhanced value and no hidden charges. The Annual Eel Festival: A Seasonal Delight As the seasons shift from summer to autumn, eels naturally fatten for migration, giving them a rich, oil-laden texture. PUTIEN’s Eel Festival is a prime opportunity to savor the freshest, most tender eels of the season. At the heart of the festival is the “Fresh Eel Cooked in Spring Water,” a dish that showcases live eels, cooked tableside to preserve their sweet and crisp flavour. Other standout dishes include Fujian's well-known "Eel in Fujian Fermented Red Rice Wine," the delectable "Baked Eel with Puning Bean Sauce," and the aromatic "Steamed Eel in Garlic and Soy Bean Sauce. " Export-Grade Eels from Shunde The eels featured in the festival hail from Shunde, Guangdong, known as the "Hometown of Chinese Eels. " These export-grade eels are fed a specialised diet of wild cod fish meal, resulting in perfectly tender, flavourful meat. Flown in fresh three times a week, the eels weigh between 600-800 grams and measure nearly 70cm in length, ensuring a premium dining experience. Four Distinctive Styles Eel Dishes to Savour 1. Eel in Fujian Fermented Red Rice Wine A classic Fujian dish, the eel is fried and coated in a fermented red rice wine paste, delivering a crispy, aromatic, and rich flavour that perfectly balances crispiness, rich aroma, and succulence. 2. Fresh Eel Cooked in Spring Water This dish highlights the natural freshness of live eels. The cooking is done at the dining table, dipping it in hot water to remove its mucous membrane before cooking it with goji berries and ginger in spring water. The result is a fragrant, delicate broth that enhances the eel’s natural flavour. 3. Baked Eel with Puning Bean Sauce Baked to perfection, this dish combines the umami of fermented Puning bean sauce with aromatic garlic and onions. Each bite is packed with flavour as the eel absorbs the rich sauce. 4. Steamed Eel in Garlic and Soy Bean Sauce Steamed on a bed of lotus leaves, the eel is infused with the fragrant blend of garlic and black bean sauce, each piece of eel is evenly coated resulting in a rich and fragrant flavour with every bite. New Fujian Culinary Delights In addition to the eel specialties, PUTIEN has introduced new dishes that showcase the heart and soul of Fujian cuisine. Each dish is a testament to time-honoured traditions, delivering comforting and delicious flavours. Braised Spareribs in Original Sauce Steamed for one hour to extract the meat’s natural essence, these ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender and bursting with flavour. Live Prawn in Superior Soup Live prawns cooked in flavourful superior soup result in a buttery, rich taste that is irresistibly tender and juicy. Claypot Beef Brisket in Shacha Sauce Slow-cooked to perfection, the beef brisket absorbs the rich flavours of Shacha sauce, offering a nostalgic bite of Fujian’s culinary history. Southern Fujian Springroll Wrapped in golden bean curd skin, this springroll is filled with crunchy water chestnut and savoury minced meat, deep-fried to a crispy exterior while remaining tender and flavourful inside. Kelp Seedlings with Pork Rib Soup A heartwarming, home-cooked style soup, crafted with the finest ingredients to nourish both the body and soul. Rich in essential vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, this dish is great for the elderly and children, delivering nutrition and warmth with every spoonful. Celebrate the Flavours of Fujian PUTIEN’s Eel Festival invites diners to embark on a culinary journey that combines traditional Fujian flavours with modern flair. Each dish tells a story, promising a meal that is as satisfying as it is memorable. Don’t miss this chance to enjoy an eel-lectrifying feast, available at all PUTIEN outlets until November 30, 2024.

Inspired by pioneering sleep science and a deep understanding of night skin science, their nighttime skincare formulas harness the skin’s natural regenerative power to optimize skin’s nightly repair process. Estée Lauder research has uncovered that skin acts differently at night. Collagen, a key component of youthful skin, breaks down more rapidly at night, due to increased moisture loss and collagen-damaging irritation, leading to a weakened collagen network. When collagen levels start to fall, signs of aging appear. The skin barrier is also more permeable at night, making it susceptible to moisture loss and environmental aggressors. As we age, and with exposure to daily stressors, skin cells’ energy is depleted, leading to a weakened skin barrier, dehydration, lines & wrinkles, and uneven texture. At night, the skin’s natural collagen production peaks. Leveraging on this discovery, Estée Lauder nighttime skincare is designed to support the body's circadian rhythm and maximize the skin’s restorative hours to boost the skin’s collagen production ability. Estée Lauder proudly unveils the Night Skin Science Center Pop-up, inviting guests to discover the speed of repair and uncover the science behind nighttime beauty at Paragon Level 1 Atrium from 12 – 25 September 2024 (10am – 9. 30pm daily).

Why Indoor Air Quality Matters In Singapore, the focus on indoor air quality has intensified, particularly concerning formaldehyde—a harmful gas commonly released from new furniture, paints, household products and renovation. With the National Environment Agency (NEA) planning stricter regulations on formaldehyde levels in home products, the Dyson TP09 arrived at an opportune moment, offering a solution that directly addresses these concerns. Our Experience with the Dyson TP09 Formaldehyde Detection and Removal One of the most remarkable features of the Dyson TP09 is its ability to detect and destroy formaldehyde, a pollutant that often goes unnoticed but can pose significant health risks. Dyson's solid-state formaldehyde sensor ensures that the detection remains accurate throughout the machine's lifetime, unlike some other purifiers whose gel-based sensors can degrade over time. We felt reassured knowing that the TP09 continuously monitors and neutralises this harmful gas, ensuring our home's air remains safe. Air Filtration and Allergen Reduction The HEPA H13 filter is another standout component, capturing 99. 95% of particles as small as 0. 1 microns. For homes with pets or during haze season, this is particularly beneficial. We've noticed a substantial reduction in dust and allergens, which has resulted in fewer allergy symptoms among our family members. This performance aligns with Dyson’s reputation for high-quality air filtration, making it a reliable choice for maintaining a cleaner indoor environment. Real-Time Monitoring and Usability The TP09’s LCD screen provides real-time updates on air quality, including PM2. 5, PM10, VOCs, NO2, and of course, formaldehyde levels. This feature allowed us to monitor how quickly the air quality improved after cooking or when the windows were open. The TP09’s ability to sense and adjust its settings automatically based on detected pollutants adds to its ease of use. We also appreciated the seamless integration with the MyDyson app, which allowed us to control and monitor the purifier remotely. Design and Noise Levels Aesthetically, the Dyson TP09 is sleek and modern, easily blending into various room decors. Its compact design ensures it doesn’t dominate the space, and the option to choose between different colour finishes adds a personal touch. Despite its powerful filtration capabilities, the TP09 operates quietly, even on higher settings. This is a significant advantage for those who need an air purifier that can run overnight without disturbing sleep. Cooling Functionality While the TP09 offers a fan function, it’s important to note that the airflow is relatively gentle, providing a pleasant breeze. Additional Features Worth Mentioning Ease of Maintenance Maintaining the Dyson TP09 is straightforward. The filters are easy to replace, and the machine itself requires minimal upkeep. Dyson recommends replacing the HEPA and carbon filters annually, depending on usage. The fact that the solid-state formaldehyde sensor and the Selective Catalytic Oxidisation (SCO) filter do not require replacement adds to the long-term value of this purifier. There is also an automatic filter-life notifications on the LCD or Dyson Link app. 9. Comprehensive Room Coverage Dyson’s Air Multiplier™ technology ensures that the TP09 purifies the entire room evenly. We found that the TP09 proved to be effective in both small and larger rooms, maintaining consistent air quality across the space. This makes it suitable for various room sizes. purified air throughout the room. 7 The Dyson Purifier Cool Formaldehyde TP09 is a powerful and reliable air purifier that excels in creating a healthier indoor environment. Its ability to detect, capture, and destroy formaldehyde, combined with its robust filtration of other pollutants, makes it an excellent choice for Singaporean homes concerned about air quality. While it may not serve as a primary cooling solution, its other features, including ease of use, low maintenance, and quiet operation, make it a worthy investment for those serious about maintaining a clean and safe home environment.

Presented by Base Entertainment Asia in association with GWB Entertainment, this revival of Miss Saigon will run until 29 September. For this limited season, the musical continues to captivate audiences with its touching story of love, sacrifice, and survival set against the harrowing backdrop of the Vietnam War. Miss Saigon tells the tragic story of Kim, a young Vietnamese woman orphaned by war and forced into a life of despair. Working in a bar run by the unscrupulous Engineer, Kim's life changes when she falls in love with Chris, an American GI. As the fall of Saigon looms, the couple is torn apart, and for three years, Kim embarks on a heart-wrenching journey to reunite with Chris, who is unaware that he has fathered a son. This emotionally charged narrative is masterfully woven into a musical tapestry, featuring iconic numbers like “The Heat Is On in Saigon,” “The Movie in My Mind,” the heart-rending “Last Night of the World,” and the bittersweet “American Dream,” which highlights the contrasting aspirations and harsh realities faced by the characters. The Singapore production of Miss Saigon boasts a remarkable cast that brings depth and authenticity to this beloved musical. Sydney-based actress Abigail Adriano delivers a stunning performance as Kim, capturing the innocence, strength, and ultimate tragedy of her character. Her portrayal is both nuanced and powerful, making her one of the standout performers in this production. Nigel Huckle, as Chris, delivers a compelling performance, showcasing the inner turmoil of a man caught between duty and love. His chemistry with Adriano is palpable, making their scenes together deeply moving. Seann Miley Moore takes on the role of the Engineer, a character whose dreams of escaping to America drive much of the narrative. Moore’s portrayal is a masterclass in dark humor and charisma, particularly during his performance of “The American Dream,” a show-stopping number that remains one of the most memorable moments of the production. Supporting performances by Laurence Mossman as Thuy, Sarah Morrison as Ellen, and Lewis Francis as John add further layers of complexity and emotion to the story. Each actor brings their character to life with sensitivity and depth, contributing to the overall impact of the show. Directed by Laurence Connor, this production of Miss Saigon is a visual and auditory feast. The set design, created by Totie Driver and Matt Kinley, is both grand and immersive, transporting the audience to war-torn Vietnam and later to the streets of Bangkok. The “Fall of Saigon” scene, featuring a life-sized helicopter descending on stage, is a technical marvel that leaves a lasting impression. The musical staging by Bob Avian, with additional choreography by Geoffrey Garratt, enhances the storytelling, with each movement and dance sequence adding to the emotional weight of the narrative. The lighting design by Bruno Poet and projections by Luke Halls, along with sound design by Mick Potter, further elevate the production, creating moments of intense drama and quiet reflection. The full 17-piece orchestra, under the music supervision of Alfonso Casado Trigo and Guy Simpson, brings Claude-Michel Schönberg’s score to life with passion and precision. The music of Miss Saigon is one of its most enduring features, and this production does justice to its iconic score. Miss Saigon at Sands Theatre, Marina Bay Sands, is a theatrical experience not to be missed. With its exceptional cast, stunning production values, and a story that resonates with universal themes of love, loss, and hope, this revival of Miss Saigon reaffirms its place as one of the greatest musicals of all time. Whether you are a longtime fan or new to the world of Miss Saigon, this production offers an unforgettable journey that will leave you deeply moved and thoroughly entertained.

Finding the right products to keep your skin healthy and glowing requires careful consideration. This guide will help you choose skincare products tailored for everyone in the family, ensuring each member can effectively combat the effects of the hot and humid weather and achieve great skin. Understanding Singapore's Climate and Its Impact on Skin Singapore experiences year-round high temperatures, often exceeding 30°C, accompanied by high humidity levels. This climate can lead to increased sweating, clogged pores, and a higher risk of skin irritation. Additionally, constant exposure to UV rays can cause premature aging and sunburn. Key Considerations for Choosing Skincare Products Identify Skin Types Oily Skin: Characterised by excess sebum production, leading to shiny skin and enlarged pores. Dry Skin: Lacks moisture and may feel tight or flaky. Combination Skin: Features both oily and dry areas, typically with an oily T-zone and dry cheeks. Sensitive Skin: Prone to irritation and redness, often reacting to certain ingredients or environmental factors. Look for Lightweight Formulas: Look for lightweight, non-comedogenic products that won't clog pores. Gel-based moisturisers and serums are excellent choices as they provide hydration without feeling heavy on the skin. Prioritise Sun Protection: Sunscreen is a must in Singapore's sunny climate. Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 to protect against both UVA and UVB rays. For daily use, consider lightweight, oil-free formulas that won't feel greasy. Hydration is Key: Despite the humidity, skin can still become dehydrated. Look for products containing hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid, glycerin, and aloe vera. These ingredients help to retain moisture and soothe the skin. Avoid Harsh Ingredients: Steer clear of products with alcohol, artificial fragrances, and harsh chemicals that can strip the skin of its natural oils and cause irritation. Look for gentle, hypoallergenic formulations, especially for sensitive skin. Skincare Routine for Different Family Members For Infants and Toddlers Use gentle, fragrance-free cleansers and moisturisers designed for sensitive baby skin. Apply a baby-friendly sunscreen with SPF 30+ when outdoors. Avoid using adult skincare products on young children as their skin is more delicate. For Teenagers Teenagers often struggle with acne due to hormonal changes. Use salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide-based cleansers to control breakouts. A lightweight, oil-free moisturiser will keep skin hydrated without clogging pores. Encourage the use of sunscreen daily to prevent sun damage. For Adults Customise your routine based on your skin type. For oily skin, use a foaming cleanser and a mattifying moisturiser. For dry skin, opt for creamy cleansers and rich moisturisers. Incorporate antioxidant serums, like vitamin C, to combat free radicals and boost skin health. Use a dedicated eye cream to address concerns like dark circles and fine lines. For Seniors Mature skin often needs more hydration and nourishment. Use rich, hydrating creams and serums containing ingredients like ceramides and peptides. Gentle exfoliation with alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) can help remove dead skin cells and promote a healthy glow. Sunscreen remains essential to protect aging skin from UV damage. Additional Tips for Skincare in Hot Weather Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your skin hydrated from within. This helps maintain skin elasticity and overall health. Wear Protective Clothing: In addition to sunscreen, wear hats, sunglasses, and protective clothing to shield your skin from the sun's harmful rays. Keep Skin Cool: Use facial mists or carry a portable fan to keep your skin cool and reduce the risk of heat-induced skin issues. Adopt a Consistent Routine: Consistency is key in skincare. Stick to a daily routine and adjust products as needed based on changes in your skin or environment. Choosing the right skincare products for Singapore's hot weather involves understanding your skin type, prioritising hydration and sun protection, and selecting lightweight, non-irritating formulas. By tailoring your skincare routine to the unique needs of each family member, you can ensure healthy, radiant skin for everyone despite the challenging climate. Remember, a consistent skincare regimen and protective measures are essential to combat the effects of the hot and humid weather, keeping your skin looking its best year-round.

A Grand Production The Mongol Khan promises a grand spectacle with elaborate sets and costumes. The production features a cast of over 70 actors, dancers, and musicians, bringing to life a story inspired by the evolution of Mongolian culture. At its core, the play narrates a dramatic tale of brutal succession that threatens the very essence of an empire. With themes of jealousy, mistaken identity, adultery, rivalry, sacrifice, succession, and power struggles, this classic tragedy culminates in an epic battle for the future of the Hunnic Empire. A Multi-Sensory Experience Audiences can expect a multi-sensory experience with a haunting original score, dramatic storytelling, dance, and puppetry. These elements come together to create an unforgettable theatrical spectacle that is both visually and emotionally engaging.

We strive to present world-class productions that resonate with diverse audiences. The Mongol Khan is a powerful story with a unique blend of entertainment and historical insight, and we are confident that it will not only captivate and inspire audiences in Singapore, but also further strengthen cultural connections between the nations”. An International Collaboration The production of The Mongol Khan is the result of a collaboration between an international team of world-renowned artists and creatives, including Tony-nominated playwright Timberlake Wertenbaker, Olivier and Tony Award-winning designer Nick Barnes, and prolific historian and travel writer John Man, an expert in Mongolian history and culture. Rich Historical Inspirations Originally written in 1998 by renowned Mongolian writer and poet Lkhagvasuren Bavuu and revived in April 2022 at the Mongolian State Academic Theatre of Drama, The Mongol Khan draws inspiration from various historical events, archaeological findings, traditional nomadic dances, and the music of the ancient Hun culture of Central Asia from the period of the Hunnic Empire. Produced by Bayra Bela (Amazon’s The Power, Netflix’s Marco Polo) and directed by esteemed Mongolian director Hero Baatar, this production promises to be a memorable event.

From 12 July to 11 August 2024, in celebration of Singapore’s National Day, Peppermint's Chef de Cuisine Leon Yee and Auntie Gaik Lean will present the ‘Savour the Straits Peranakan Buffet,’ a feast of authentic and scrumptious flavours of true-blue Peranakan cuisine that are sure to tantalise your taste buds. The Collaboration with Auntie Gaik Lean This year's buffet introduces three new signature Peranakan dishes by Auntie Gaik Lean. They are Sambal Udang, which brings the tangy and spicy notes of thick prawn curry to the fore with morsels of meaty prawns. Cincaru Rempah features freshly delivered cincaru (hard-tailed scad) stuffed with turmeric and lemongrass sambal before being sautéed to succulent perfection. Kerabu Bee Hoon with Tiger Prawn offers vibrant Nyonya flavors with a rice vermicelli salad prepared with fresh tiger prawn, kaffir lime leaves, lemongrass, shallots, mint leaves, kerisik, and sambal belacan, finished with a squeeze of fresh calamansi juice. These dishes add to the already impressive lineup of traditional Peranakan favorites, ensuring a diverse and delicious dining experience. Chef Leon Yee’s Timeless Recipes Reflect His Peranakan Heritage Chef Leon Yee’s culinary creations shine this year with dishes like Giant Stingray Kuah Lada, Ayam Buah Keluak, and Black Angus Beef Belly Pongteh. Profoundly influenced by the culinary traditions of his mother and Peranakan grandmother from a young age, Chef Leon has absorbed invaluable knowledge and traditions from countless hours in the kitchen during his childhood. Combined with his professional culinary training, this rich heritage fuels his passion to continually refine and innovate his repertoire. Highlights of the Buffet and Celebrate Singapore's National Day with the Kings of Fruits The buffet features all-you-can-eat durian buffet with free-flow selection of premium durian varieties, including Mao Shan Wang, Red Prawn, and D24 varieties, available during dinner on every Friday and Saturday at Peppermint’s Urban Farm. Diners can enjoy these durians fresh from Malaysia and de-shelled on the spot or enjoy warm durian, freshly grilled for a delightful depth of smokiness and caramelised sweetness. With ‘Savour the Straits Peranakan Buffet’ being held in conjunction with Singapore’s National Day celebrations, guests can also catch the fireworks lighting up the sky with vibrant colours on Saturday evenings during the National Day Parade previews (on July 27 and August 3, 2024) and on August 9, 2024. Our team had the pleasure to interview Peppermint’s Chef de Cuisine, Leon Yee, and Auntie Gaik Lean’s Old School Eatery’s Chef-Owner, Beh Gaik Lean, to learn more about their inspirations, the highlights of this year's ‘Savour the Straits Peranakan Buffet,’ and their thoughts on Peranakan cuisine. Here are some insights from our conversation: Interview with Peppermint’s Chef de Cuisine, Leon Yee and Auntie Gaik Lean’s Old School Eatery’s Chef-Owner, Beh Gaik Lean 1) How does this year's ‘Savour the Straits Peranakan Buffet’ collaboration differ from last year's collaboration? Chef de Cuisine, Leon Yee and Auntie Gaik Lean: This year’s ‘Savour the Straits Peranakan Buffet’ sees the inclusion of three new signature Peranakan dishes by Auntie Gaik Lean, such as the Sambal Udang, Cincaru Rempah, and Kerabu Bee Hoon with Tiger Prawn, adding to the lineup of dishes that were overwhelmingly popular last year. ○ ○ Cincaru Rempa — Freshly delivered, high-quality cincaru fish, also known as hardtail scad. It is then stuffed with turmeric and lemongrass sambal, and then pan-fried to achieve a juicy interior and a crisp exterior. ○ Sambal Udang — Juicy prawns in a rich, flavourful curry with a touch of sweetness and a hint of spice that goes perfectly with rice. ○ Kerabu Bee Hoon with Tiger Prawn — A Nonya-style rice vermicelli salad prepared with fresh tiger prawn, kaffir lime leaves, lemongrass, shallots, mint leaves, kerisik, and sambal belacan, finished with a squeeze of fresh calamansi juice. This year’s collaboration also brings the taste of the king of fruits, durian, available at the live durian station on Friday and Saturday evenings at Peppermint’s Urban Farm. Diners can look forward to a free-flow selection of rich and creamy durian varieties such as Mao Shan Wang, Red Prawn, and D24, delivered fresh from Malaysia and de-shelled on the spot for their enjoyment. If they prefer to savour it warm, diners are also welcome to have their durians freshly grilled, bringing a delightful depth of smokiness and caramelised sweetness. Furthermore, diners will be able to join in the festivities and celebrate National Day when they visit on Saturday evenings from now till 9th August. They will be able to catch a striking display of the National Day fireworks with an unparalleled view from Peppermint! 2) What are the highlight dishes for this year, and could you share the inspiration behind them? Chef de Cuisine, Leon Yee and Auntie Gaik Lean: The highlights of this year would be the three new signature Peranakan dishes by Auntie Gaik Lean, such as the Sambal Udang, Cincaru Rempah, and Kerabu Bee Hoon with Tiger Prawn, as well as Chef Leon Yee’s Giant Stingray Kuah Lada, Ayam Buah Keluak, and Black Angus Beef Belly Pongteh. Both hailing from Peranakan families with fond memories of the dishes they enjoyed growing up, Chef Leon and Aunty Gaik Lean wish to share the bold flavours and vibrancy of Peranakan cuisine with more people through the age-old traditions and knowledge passed down by their mothers and grandmothers. 3) Are there any differences between Peranakan cuisine in Malaysia and Singapore? Chef de Cuisine, Leon Yee and Auntie Gaik Lean: Actually, the menu is typical of the Peranakan food found in Penang. Singaporeans could be more familiar with Chef Leon’s Peranakan recipes that are closer to the Peranakan food found in Malacca, in the southern part of Malaysia. This collaboration will showcase the two regions of Peranakan cuisine.

A Legacy of Enchantment and Innovation Founded in 1985 by directors Isao Takahata and Hayao Miyazaki, alongside producer Toshio Suzuki, Studio Ghibli is celebrated for its enchanting films that range from magical adventures to charming tales based on everyday life. The studio's influence on the animation industry is profound, with its films earning critical acclaim both in Japan and internationally. Studio Ghibli's masterful hand-drawn visuals, intricate world-building, rich characters, and universal themes have inspired generations of animators and storytellers. Notably, seven of their films have received Academy Award nominations, with "Spirited Away" (2001) and most recently, "The Boy and the Heron" (2023) winning Best Animated Feature. In 2024, Studio Ghibli made history by being the first group to be awarded an Honorary Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival, recognizing their outstanding contributions over the past 40 years.

Global Journey and New Additions "The World of Studio Ghibli" exhibition was first presented in Japan in 2013 and has since traveled to South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and most recently, Bangkok.

In a society where success is often narrowly defined, Yeo’s SuperSprouts™ aims to celebrate each child’s individuality, empowering them to embrace and grow into their most amazing selves. To inspire parents and children on this journey, Yeo’s SuperSprouts™ features vibrant packaging and three lovable characters: Oh-Oh! Original, Chatterbox Chocolate, and Sassy Strawberry.

While older patients in their 30s and beyond have commonly undergone botulinum toxin A (BTA) treatments to smooth out dynamic wrinkles and fine lines, experts now suggest that starting these treatments earlier could have cumulative benefits for maintaining youthful skin. To delve deeper into this topic, we interviewed Dr. Pek Chong Han, Consultant Plastic Surgeon and Medical Director of Polaris Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. Dr. Pek shares his insights on the benefits and risks of starting BTA treatments early, provides valuable advice on how to obtain safe and effective preventive treatments, and more. Interview with Dr Pek Chong Han, Consultant Plastic Surgeon and Medical Director of Polaris Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery 1) What causes our skin to age? Dr Pek Chong Han: Skin ageing is caused by various factors, and is a natural part of our body’s ageing process. Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body and serves as the primary building block for the body’s skin, bones, and connective tissues. After the age of 20, the skin produces 1% less collagen each year . Additionally, women lose 30% more collagen during the first five years of menopause, on top of what they’ve lost since the age of 20 . As a result, the skin becomes thinner, more fragile, and develop more visible ageing signs, such as roughness, dullness, sagging, dryness, and wrinkles. Aside from collagen loss, other factors that can speed up the ageing process and cause skin wrinkling include: Exposure to ultraviolet radiation: UV rays break down the collagen and elastin fibres in the skin. Smoking: Promotes the production of an enzyme called metalloproteinase (MMPs), which are responsible for breaking down collagen in the skin . Exposure to air pollution: Poor quality air can negatively alter the cells that protect the DNA from damage, leading to early cell death and premature skin ageing . Repeated facial movements or expressions: Smiling, squinting, and frowning form tiny grooves (dynamic wrinkles) under the skin, which can become permanently etched into the skin with ageing. 2) When do patients start seeing signs of physical ageing and what are these signs? Dr Pek Chong Han: Everyone ages differently, so there’s no specific time when signs of ageing will develop. However, since the body’s collagen production starts to decrease by the mid-20s, individuals may start noticing fine lines forming around age 25, with more obvious signs of dynamic wrinkles in their 30s . Dynamic wrinkles that have become permanently etched in the skin often start to appear in the 40s and 50s, due to further collagen loss in the deeper layers of the skin . 3) What is botulinum toxin A (BTA), and how does it work to smooth dynamic lines and wrinkles? Dr Pek Chong Han: Dynamic wrinkles occur when muscles attached to the overlying skin cause the skin to bunch together when you animate, i. e. , frown, smile laugh, squint, etc. The areas of the face where dynamic wrinkles most often occur are the forehead when one furrows the brows, and crow’s feet near the corners of the eyes. They can also occur on the bridge of the nose, as forehead horizontal lines, periorbital lines (lines around the eyes), nasolabial folds (folds around the nose and mouth), and thick platysma bands around the neck, sometimes known as ‘turkey neck’. BTA injections, such as Nabota®, weaken the muscles that cause animated expressions, by blocking or reducing the release of a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine, which is required for the muscle to contract. The absence of acetylcholine disables the muscles from contracting and creating facial expressions, thus preventing the formation of dynamic wrinkles. Unlike previous generations, Nabota® is also the first Asian BTA approved by the United States Food & Drug Administration (US FDA), Health Canada, and the European Medicines Agency (EMA), backed by large-scale clinical data supporting its excellent safety and efficacy. 4) As a plastic surgeon, what are your thoughts on administering BTA or any minimally invasive treatments on younger patients? Are there certain patients you would not treat and why? What are the benefits of Preventive BTA treatments for patients in their 20s? Dr Pek Chong Han: Before aesthetic treatments, BTA has a long record of safety and efficacy for other indications such as muscular dystonias (movement disorder that causes muscles to contract), blepharospasm (uncontrollable twitching and movements of the eyelids) and bruxism (clenching jaw) where it is injected into target muscles to reduce abnormal muscular action. Common in young children and adolescents , bruxism can result in damaged teeth, jaw pain and headaches at the temples if left untreated. Performing the procedure on patients under 21 will require a parent’s or a guardian’s consent. Administering BTA treatments in patients in their 20s can help delay the onset of ageing by preventing lines and wrinkles from becoming permanently etched into the skin later on. This approach, known as ‘preventive BTA,’ allows young patients to maintain a youthful appearance for longer and potentially delay the need for more invasive procedures later in life. A study involving identical twins showed the effectiveness of preventive BTA . In the study, one twin received BTA treatments two to three times a year starting at age 25, while the other only had the injections twice in her life. After 20 years of regular BTA treatments, the twin who received consistent treatments had noticeably smoother skin and shallower wrinkles compared to her twin sister at the same age. While BTA treatments are suitable for patients in their mid-20s, I would advise against treating patients under the age of 21 without parental/ guardian consent. In general, while the recognised minimum age for such injectables for aesthetic purposes in Singapore is 18, it is still prudent to have careful discussions with these patients and their parent/guardian(s) regarding the benefits and risks of such injectable procedures among younger individuals. I also do not offer BTA... --- - Published: 2024-07-16 - Modified: 2024-07-17 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/kidstart-playdate-tampines-on-aug-4-a-day-of-interactive-play-for-kids-and-families/ - Categories: EVENTS, PARENTING/EDUCATION - Tags: Child development, Children, Families, Family, Health Promotion Board, Kids, KidSTART, KidSTART PlayDate, KidSTART PlayDate @ Tampines, Play, Sport Singapore KidSTART is an impactful child development programme that creates positive outcomes for children and parents to be confident caregivers.

Through the magic of imagination, discovery, fantasy and — of course — adventure, guests will embark on voyages to seven uniquely themed areas, each teeming with dozens of incredible characters and unforgettable experiences, without ever leaving the ship.

Gateway Theatre proudly presents "The Invisible Pangolin", an hour-long production that is tailored for children aged 5 to 8. This empowering play is a transformative exploration that nurtures empathy, understanding and resilience in the hearts of young viewers, where they will also get to learn about the key characteristics of animals native to Singapore. The play follows the story of Penny the Sunda Pangolin, as she navigates her anxiety in school and her fear of being seen by others. Through witnessing her trials and triumphs, the audience can expect to walk away with insights into the value of friendship, the importance of being inclusive, the art of saying “no” in an uncomfortable situation, and how to give space to a friend who says “no”. Being an endangered species of mammal that is naturally shy and solitary, the Sunda Pangolin is an apt parallel to the introverts who walk among us. Be surprised, touched, and tickled by this heart-warming script, where not only the shy one is invisible.

These lipid molecules act as the glue holding skin cells together, forming a protective barrier akin to mortar in a brick wall. This barrier not only shields the skin from various external aggressors but also helps retain moisture, a critical aspect in combating the effects of modern living such as air conditioning, fluctuating climates, and hot showers. Derma Lab is a brand that has expertly harnessed the power of ceramides to develop outstanding skincare solutions. Their product lineup, including the Gentle Relief Cleanser, the Gentle Relief Cream—winner of the coveted “Product of the Year” title by consumers in Singapore—and the newly launched Daily Hydrating Lotion, has been garnering attention for its effectiveness. Highlights of Derma Lab's products as follows: Double Repair, Lasting Hydration Derma Lab Daily Hydrating Lotion ($27. 15 for 200ml) Derma Lab's newest addition, the Daily Hydrating Lotion, is a meticulously crafted formulation featuring a potent blend of ceramides and niacinamide. This body lotion is designed to moisturise, repair, and protect the skin, offering unparalleled hydration. Key Benefits: 72H Moisturize: Provides deep hydration to relieve dry, flaky skin, ensuring long-lasting hydration. 2X Repair: Smoothens skin and repairs damage, improving water retention. 5. 3X Protect: Defends against environmental stressors and UV rays. The Derma Lab Daily Hydrating Lotion stands out for its ability to deliver immediate and lasting hydration. Noticeable improvements in skin texture and moisture levels have been reported after just one application. The inclusion of niacinamide adds an extra layer of protection and repair, making it suitable for daily use, especially in harsh climates. Its formulation, free from alcohol, colourants, fragrances, mineral oils, parabens, SLES, and steroids, makes it a safe choice for all skin types, including sensitive skin. Instant Relief for Troubled Skin Derma Lab Gentle Relief Cleanser ($43. 30 for 1000ml) This non-stripping, soap-free cleanser is suitable for all skin types, including the most sensitive. Enriched with ceramides, glycerin, and the Derma Mimic Complex, it moisturises as it cleanses, restoring the skin's delicate protective barrier. Key Benefits: 100% Tolerant on Eczema Patients: Clinically proven safe for those with eczema. 100% Protection from Further Water Loss: Helps maintain skin hydration. 100% No Negative Skin Reactions from Subjects: After 28 days of use, subjects reported no dryness, flaking, itching, or other adverse symptoms. The Gentle Relief Cleanser has received acclaim for its gentle yet effective cleansing action, making it a favourite among users. Particularly beneficial for individuals with sensitive or eczema-prone skin, this cleanser is prized for its ability to thoroughly cleanse without stripping away the skin's natural oils. Users appreciate how it leaves their skin feeling soft and hydrated after use. Moreover, its ophthalmologist-tested formula ensures safety even for newborns, emphasising both its gentleness and effectiveness. Derma Lab Gentle Relief Cream ($44. 50 for 450g) This intensive hydrating cream provides instant and continuous relief for dry and eczema-prone skin. Formulated with its proprietary Derma Mimic Complex, Ceramides, Glycerin, and Bisabolol, it helps restore the skin's barrier, reduce redness, and relieve itching. Key Benefits: 2. 7X Rapid Itch Relief: Quickly alleviates itching. 11. 4X Intense Soothing Action: Provides significant soothing effects. 1. 7X Moisture Amplifier and Barrier Function Improvement: Enhances skin hydration and barrier function. The Gentle Relief Cream is a powerhouse for those struggling with severe dryness and eczema. Users have noted its ability to provide quick itch relief and long-lasting hydration. Its rich, non-greasy formula absorbs well, making it a favourite for both daily use and targeted relief during flare-ups. Like its cleanser counterpart, it is free from harsh ingredients, ensuring it is safe for even the most sensitive skin. Derma Lab's range of products, powered by the skin-loving benefits of ceramides, offers reliable solutions for dry, damaged, and sensitive skin. From the immediate and long-lasting hydration of the Daily Hydrating Lotion to the gentle yet effective cleansing and soothing properties of the Gentle Relief Cleanser and Cream, these products have proven their worth in clinical trials and consumer reviews alike. Available exclusively at Watsons, Fairprice, CK, and online at https://shopee. sg/dermalab. sg. Derma Lab continues to be a trusted name in skincare, delivering results that speak for themselves. --- - Published: 2024-06-08 - Modified: 2024-06-08 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/dive-into-delectable-delights-bucketta-launches-new-outlet-at-downtown-east-with-irresistible-opening-promotions/ - Categories: DINING - Tags: Bucketta, Chef Wisit, Dining, E!Hub Downtown East, Food, Opening Promotions, Seafood, Seafood Bucket in Singapore, Seafood in Singapore, Singapore The popular seafood bucket brand Bucketta has unveiled its latest outlet at E!

Enter Evereden, a family-focused skincare brand that artfully combines pure, plant-based ingredients with scientific innovation. Founded by Malaysian-born investment banker turned entrepreneur Kimberley Ho, Evereden has quickly become a trusted name in skincare, garnering accolades from prestigious platforms like Forbes, Vogue, and The Wall Street Journal. Since its inception in 2018, Evereden has expanded its offerings from baby and mother care products to a comprehensive range of skincare and haircare solutions for kids and adults. This strategic expansion reflects Kimberley's commitment to addressing the skincare needs of every family member. With dermatologists from Stanford and Harvard meticulously curating each ingredient, Evereden's products are not only safe but also high-performing and results-driven. The brand's dedication to using botanical ingredients like Organic Cold-Pressed Sunflower Seed Oil, Avocado, Coconut, and Rosehip oils ensures that even the most delicate skin types are cared for with the utmost gentleness and efficacy. As tweens increasingly show interest in skincare, Evereden addresses the unique challenges this demographic faces, such as sensitive skin and the potential harms of using inappropriate products. The brand's expansion into this area reflects its mission to provide comprehensive skincare solutions for all ages. Kimberley's passion for creating safe, high-quality products is evident in every aspect of Evereden, making it a trusted choice for families seeking healthier skincare options. In our conversation with Kimberley where she shared more about Evereden's evolution, the importance of appropriate skincare for tweens, and how the brand continues to innovate and educate in the crowded skincare market. Read our exclusive interview to find out more. Interview with Kimberley Ho, Founder of Family Skincare Brand, Evereden 1) Can you share with us about the evolution of Evereden from focusing on baby and mother care to expanding into skincare and haircare for kids and adults? What inspired this expansion? Kimberley Ho: Our mission is and has always been to be a multi-generational brand that can grow with you and your family through all stages of life. Our expertise lies in creating plant-based, scientifically-proven formulas that are suitable for even those with the most sensitive skin – babies and breast-feeding, pregnant women being our first audiences. However, as we researched other underserved segments that lacked safe, effective offerings, we discovered that kids personal care and targeted solutions like suncare and eczema were overlooked. Despite children’s unique needs, kids’ skincare and haircare were huge white spaces with limited options for parents to choose from. We found that kids often used adult products that are made for and tested only on mature skin, while the few “kids” products on the market were chalk full of allergens and irritants. Then, we realized that many targeted skincare solutions on the market, though perhaps effective, are harmful. Topical steroids used to treat eczema have been shown to cause skin thinning and withdrawal. However, clean, steroid-free, eczema products are few and far between, taking the shape of either questionable, desperate home remedies or drugstore formulas that have not been updated for decades. With sunscreen, we observed lack of awareness around mineral vs. chemical, non-nano vs. nano sunscreens despite concerning findings that chemical, nano sunscreens absorb into the bloodstream and potentially disrupt the endocrine system. These underserved categories presented an opportunity for us to disrupt the market by educating consumers and creating superior formulas that are truly safe for all ages, adults, kids, and babies alike. 2) With the increasing trend of tweens showing interest in skincare, what are the challenges and considerations in formulating products that cater to this demographic's specific needs, especially regarding sensitive skin? Kimberley Ho: First, children’s interest in skincare is not a bad thing. It’s natural, healthy, and a great opportunity to teach them good hygiene habits that will last a lifetime! When formulating for children and tweens, it’s crucial to consider that their skin is thinner and more sensitive than adults. Kids do need to cleanse, hydrate, and protect their face and body. However, they shouldn’t be exposed to harsh chemicals frequently found in adult skincare – for a good reason too. Using Vitamin C, exfoliating acids, physical scrubs, retinoids, even some essential oils may weaken children’s skin barrier and result in allergic contact dermatitis, or red, scaly, itchy rashes that are prone to infection and spreading. Skin health is then compromised even further due to inability to effectively protect from environmental stressors, like sun and pollution. While few brands specifically target Gen Alpha, we offer safe, high-quality skincare and haircare solutions made especially for kids that parents can feel good about. Our products were painstakingly developed and tested to ensure that they are suitable for children, whereas many adult brands do not sufficiently test their products on children despite marketing to them. All kids need is a simple 3-step routine – a gentle, hydrating cleanser, moisturizer, and sunscreen to protect from dryness, sun damage, dirt, and daily buildup from increasing sebum production. At a minimum, children should use a sunscreen every day to protect against UVA/UVB rays, even on cloudy and rainy days! Evereden’s Multi-Vitamin Face Cream and Wash as well as Protective Mineral SPF 20 for kids work to strengthen, not harm, their skin barrier. 3) The Guardian recently reported on young children expressing interest in anti-aging skincare products, potentially risking harm to their skin. How does Evereden address this concern while still catering to the evolving demands of the market? Kimberley Ho: While we support building healthy skincare habits at a young age, we strongly oppose children using anti-aging or any other adult-targeted products. All adult benefits and their corresponding ingredients – such as retinol, hydroquinone, AHAs, and BHAs– are not suitable for kids’ skin, even if formulas are “clean. ” Retinol is a potent anti-aging ingredient that even adults require slowly introducing into their routine and is unnecessary for anyone before their twenties, when collagen begins to decrease. In fact, kids using anti-aging products may cause... --- - Published: 2024-06-03 - Modified: 2024-06-03 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/universal-studios-singapore-celebrates-the-release-of-illuminations-despicable-me-4-with-a-mega-despicable-summer-event/ - Categories: STAYCATION/TRAVEL - Tags: Universal Studios Singapore Get ready for A Mega Despicable Summer as Universal Studios Singapore at Resorts World Sentosa celebrates the upcoming film release of Illumination’s Despicable Me 4!

Enjoy a taste of Thailand and have a thai-riffic time at Fourgather, located at the historic Amoy Hotel. Offering a vibrant fusion of authentic Thai street food, eclectic art, and lively music, Fourgather is the brainchild of four friends and founders Ade Lau, Cecilia Ng, Jasmine Chen, and May Chaya. The clever play on the word ‘foregather’ reflects their vision of creating a place where friends come together to enjoy great food and vibrant ambiance. What began as a humble home-based food delivery service during the pandemic has blossomed into a well-loved dining destination. Seamlessly blending the heritage of its unique location with the bustling energy of Bangkok, Fourgather invites diners to experience a slice of Thailand in the heart of Singapore. The transformation of Fourgather from the home-based food delivery service, Arai Gor Mee, to a full-fledged restaurant is a testament to the founders' dedication and vision. Their shared passion for Thai cuisine and the desire to recreate the relaxed atmosphere of Thai street food culture inspired them to embark on this ambitious venture. At Fourgather, every detail, from the vibrant décor to the meticulously curated menu, reflects their commitment to authenticity and quality. We had the pleasure of speaking with Ade Lau, Cecilia Ng, Jasmine Chen, and May Chaya to delve deeper into their vision, challenges, and the unique elements that make Fourgather a standout in Singapore's culinary scene. Interview with Ade Lau, Cecilia Ng, Jasmine Chen and May Chaya, founders of Fourgather 1) What inspired the creation of Fourgather as a modern Thai restaurant focusing on street food, art, and music, and can you elaborate on the specific experiences or influences that led to the development of this unique concept? Ade: As a group, the four of us have always loved many different aspects of Thai culture, especially the food! While I was based in Australia in my 20s, my dad had encouraged me to open a Mookata restaurant but at that time, I decided to shelve the idea to pursue other interests. Fast forward to 2021, during the Heightened Alert phase of the COVID-19 pandemic, I was not able to travel back to Australia due to all the travel restrictions that were in place. So, my two-week stay in Singapore became indefinite and I started trying to find different ways to bide my time. This idea of opening a restaurant resurfaced in my mind and I felt inspired to start my own business. Eventually, three of us (Cecilia, May, and myself) started Arai Gor Mee, our very own home-based food delivery service that ran between April to October 2021. We had really strong support from the Thai community here in Singapore and soon we were selling out on weekends! We took that as a sign to rebrand Arai Gor Mee into Fourgather and bring Jasmine, who I met in 2022 through in-line skating, on board. 2) As co-founders, how did each of you collaborate and navigate the challenges of opening a restaurant, and what specific strategies led to the successful establishment of Fourgather? Ade: Before Arai Gor Mee and Fourgather, none of us had any formal F&B experience. One thing that helped us was our past experiences in our respective jobs. I’m a photographer by trade and at Fourgather, I not only take care of the design of the space, but I’m also in the kitchen making sure that each dish comes out picture-perfect. So I think this gives me an eye for these details and also helped me create a photo-worthy space. Jasmine: Before meeting the group and working with them on Fourgather, I was a producer at Mediacorp. As a producer, it’s all about meeting new people, organising and handling lots of different tasks, people all at the same time, which I do now for Fourgather as well when I’m managing the front-of-house and more. Cecilia: At Fourgather, I manage the logistics and provide backend support and this is something that my past work experiences have helped me with as well. For the last 14 years, I’ve been working in engineering with a focus on maintenance and service and in this job, I primarily handle inventory management. Before this, I worked as a sales representative, and I think both roles have given me an edge to support procurement, logistics, and backend operations in Fourgather. May: My cooking experience started when I was younger as I used to help my mum out at her papaya salad store in Thailand. Since then, I’ve been learning more and more about food by trying different dishes and also through YouTube! Now at Fourgather, I’m the Thai chef consultant but I’m more actively involved in the innovation process, and I come up with new recipes and ideas for the menu. For now, I’m also in the kitchen almost every day to make sure everything runs smoothly. So, overall, we would say that a combination of our past experiences and being adaptable is something that led to the success we’ve had in the opening stages so far. 3) The integration of art and music seems to be an essential part of the Fourgather experience. Could you elaborate on how you incorporate these elements into the restaurant, and what impact do you believe they have on your customers? Ade: When we opened Fourgather, we really wanted to create a space that would bring the heart and energy of Bangkok to Singapore. If you visit Fourgather, you’ll find that there’s a very warm, design-led ambience with different pieces of art and decorative elements in every corner; these art pieces are all sourced personally by us in Bangkok. We play Thai music in the background as diners enjoy their meals. We have plans to introduce live acoustic music sets but are now pending all the necessary licensing approvals. With the combination of the art, music, authentic Thai food and overall ambience at Fourgather, we hope to transport our customers to the artsy district of Thong Lor without leaving Singapore.

Beyond the radio waves, Natasha leads an equally dynamic life as a devoted mother and party host extraordinaire. As she prepares to welcome her second child, Natasha shares her journey of parenting, the lessons learned, and how she balances her thriving career with family life. In an exclusive interview, Natasha opens up about the evolution of her parenting style since the birth of her first child, the unique challenges of raising a toddler while expecting a new baby, and the partnership she shares with her husband in navigating parenthood. With her characteristic humour and sincerity, Natasha reflects on the joys and struggles of motherhood, offering insights and tips for fellow working mums striving to find harmony between their professional and personal lives. Interview with Mediacorp 987 DJ Natasha Mohamad Faisal 1) Congratulations on your second pregnancy! How are the preparations going, and what aspects of expanding your family are you looking forward and most excited about? Natasha Mohamad Faisal: Ah, thanks a bunch! Preparing for baby number two is like prepping for a sequel – in my head I feel like I got the basics down pat, but I’m bracing myself for any surprise twist. We’re mostly excited to see how our first kiddo, Luna, takes on the role of the big sister. She’s definitely a character and has been showing promising signs, like being mindful of my growing belly and acknowledging “adik” (younger sibling) in her routines, it’s amusing and heartwarming all at the same time. 2) Do you and your husband share similar parenting styles, or do you have distinct approaches? How do you navigate any differences in parenting philosophies? Natasha Mohamad Faisal: My husband and I definitely have our own flavours, but I’d like to think we've mastered the art of compromise. When it comes to parenting styles, my husband and I are like two sides of the same coin. We’re both rather easygoing and place emphasis on safety and staying rooted in our faith, but beyond that, we take slightly different routes. He’s ‘Silly Daddy’ in our household, the one who turns toothbrush time into a dance party and bedtime into a stand-up comedy show. Luna adores every moment of his goofiness. As for me, I’m ‘Safe Space Mommy. ’ Whenever Luna needs a cuddle, a shoulder to cry on, or someone to ride through to her toddler dramas, I’m her go-to gal. When navigating our differences there’s been lots of trial and errors. At the end of the day, we both just want what’s best for our little Luna – a safe, silly, and snuggly upbringing. 3) Having experience with your first child, are there any specific things you plan to do differently or lessons you've learned that you'll apply to parenting your second child? Natasha Mohamad Faisal: Absolutely! Round one taught us some valuable lessons. We're definitely aiming to stress less about the small stuff and soak in every precious baby moment this time around. Oh, and speaking of memories, I'm making a mental note to clear out some serious storage space on our devices. I'm notoriously bad at documenting, and I've had my fair share of "darn, I wish I captured that" moments with Luna. I'm living the memories, but my Instagram’s left wondering where all the photos are! Maybe I'll even get a bit more active on social media, not for the likes, but as a digital diary of sorts. I mean, Luna's had two epic birthdays, and while we've had a blast, my feed's been crickets. 4) How did you go about sharing the news of your pregnancy with your daughter, and what was her reaction? How do you involve her in the preparations for her new sibling? Natasha Mohamad Faisal: Sharing the news with Luna was a total "kids say the darndest things" moment! It was October last year, as we were getting ready for bed, Luna pulled off her detective act, lifting my shirt, planting kisses on my belly, all while declaring, "baby inside. " She practically had me running to the drugstore for pregnancy tests! When the results confirmed her hunch, her reaction was priceless – a mix of excitement and curiosity that melted our hearts. She naturally exclaimed “I’m Kakak (big sister) Luna! ” As for involving her in the preparations, we're making it a family affair. She’s right in the middle of all the action. We're reading books about becoming a big sister and talking about all the adventures she'll have with her new sibling. It's all about making her feel included and excited for this new chapter in our family's story. 5) Balancing parenthood with a career can be challenging. Can you share some insights into how you manage to juggle parenting duties while working as a DJ at Mediacorp 987? Natasha Mohamad Faisal: I feel incredibly fortunate to have a solid support system in place, both at work and at home. My managers at Mediacorp 987, shoutout to Boss Janice and Erina, and colleague, Gerald, have been absolute gems. They not only understand the challenges of balancing work and parenthood but also offer invaluable advice and tips gleaned from their own experiences as parents. Having their support has been a game-changer. On the home front, I hit the jackpot with a partner who's not just supportive but hands-on as well. We've got this tag-team thing down to a science - I handle the cooking, he tackles the cleaning, and somehow it all works out. Plus, living close to my parents has been a delightful bonus. Their presence adds an extra layer of love and security that's truly priceless. Of course, laughter is our secret weapon when things inevitably go off the rails. We've learned to roll with the punches and find humour in the chaos. 6) What advice or tips would you offer to fellow working mothers who are trying... --- - Published: 2024-05-31 - Modified: 2024-05-31 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/embark-on-rjs-adventure-with-uol-malls-and-line-friends-this-june-holidays/ - Categories: EVENTS - Tags: RJ Food Trail, UOL Malls This June, UOL Malls invites you to join an exhilarating culinary and shopping journey as it launches its summer campaign, RJ’s Adventure, in collaboration with the global creative studio, Line Friends.

This campaign introduces a new song and dance to encourage kids and parents alike to stay active for better digestive health. This marks the fifth edition of Friso's "Good Poop Matters, Baby! " national campaign, which emphasises the importance of a well-balanced diet, exercise, and sufficient rest in achieving good gut health for children. With sedentary lifestyles becoming increasingly common among young children, Friso is focusing on raising awareness about the role of regular exercise in maintaining a healthy digestive system for little ones. “Friso firmly believes in the importance of a natural approach to good digestion for young children. Nurturing happy, healthy kids extends beyond nutrition; it encompasses quality sleep, movement, and a balanced diet. As a brand, we're committed to empowering parents with the knowledge and resources they need to raise resilient and thriving children, ensuring they have the best start in life, says Carmen Lim, Brand and Digital Manager, Friso Singapore. Research indicates that exercise plays a vital role in stimulating digestion and preventing constipation, by aiding in the movement of digested food through the intestines. Therefore, encouraging regular exercise through play can contribute to promoting good gut health and overall wellbeing in children. Friso Good Poop Advisory Panel 2024 Friso Good Poop Advisory Panel 2024 (from L to R): Friso Brand Ambassador Derrick Hoh, Friso Movement Experts Titus Ting and Theophilus Lim and Friso Gut Expert Sherllie Kartika The Friso Good Poop Advisory Panel returns this year with a focus on the connection between movement and gut health in young children. This year’s panel includes registered dietitian Sherllie Kartika, preschool sports enrichment provider Tiny Mountains co-founders Titus Ting and Theophilus Lim, and Friso’s latest brand ambassador, local singer-songwriter Derrick Hoh. Co-founders of Tiny Mountains Titus Ting and Theophilus Lim highlight the importance of active play in children’s daily lives, “Physical activity not only strengthens muscles and bones but also stimulates gut motility and circulation, which are essential for optimal digestion and nutrient absorption. We often hear from parents that their children often eat very well after a Tiny Mountains class. This is because physical activity not only helps to burn calories, leading to an increase in appetite, but it also helps regulate appetite and food intake. Children are also in a much better mood after having run off some steam through physical activities. Despite their young age, children do experience varying degrees of stress, which can affect their gut health. Exercise stimulates the release of endorphins and lowers cortisol levels, indirectly benefiting gut health by reducing stress-related symptoms. ” Registered dietitian Sherllie Kartika emphasised on the relationship between diet, movement, and gut health. “Our gut is often referred to as our second brain and it plays a pivotal role in both our physical and mental well-being. Achieving a healthy gut involves nurturing diversity and balance among these microbes, which can be influenced by various factors including diet, lifestyle choices, and even our environment. In addition to maintaining a healthy, fibre-rich diet, regular physical activity involving moderate intensity exercises are likely to promote gut motility and produce change in the guts. As a result, this can help contribute to a more diverse and balanced gut microbiome. ” Friso Brand Ambassador: Derrick Hoh As parenting roles have evolved, with fathers taking on more caregiving responsibilities and sharing their experiences on social media, Friso recognises the growing influence of dads in shaping family dynamics. In response to this trend, Friso is proud to announce the appointment of homegrown singer-songwriter-producer Derrick Hoh as its latest brand ambassador in Singapore. In his role, Derrick will collaborate with Friso to curate a series of engaging content, drawing from his own parenting journey and offering valuable tips to fellow parents of young children. Since joining forces with Friso, Derrick has been candidly sharing his personal experiences, including documenting his 18- month-old daughter Nori's journey with Friso formula milk. “As a father, I want to provide my child with the best start in life, which includes ensuring her gut health is well-nurtured. It's a privilege to be appointed as Friso's brand ambassador, as their commitment to supporting families to raise happy, healthy kids aligns perfectly with my own parenting values. I hope to use this opportunity to use my platform to explore fun and engaging ways to drive awareness of the importance of good gut health in young children,” said Derrick Hoh. The Digestion Journey Song and Dance To highlight the connection between movement and gut health, Friso has partnered with preschool multi-sports enrichment provider, Tiny Mountains, to create a song titled “Good Poop Matters”. The catchy tune, complemented with simple and fun dance moves, educates young children about the digestion journey in a simple and playful way. Parents and children can sing and move along, learning about gut health in a fun, engaging manner. The song can be downloaded via the link here. As part of the campaign, Friso is offering a special promotion: customers who purchase $150 worth of Friso participating products will be able to redeem two weekend classes with Tiny Mountains, valued at $80.

The study highlighted that children were often offered a limited variety of foods, leading to an imbalanced nutritional intake. Taleii, a local baby and children's food brand, aims to address and transform these dietary concerns. Taleii, founded by a mother-daughter duo—Carole and her daughter, Talei—has undergone a rebranding to focus on providing nutritious and delicious options for older children. Initially catering to weaning babies aged six months and above, Taleii’s products now serve as nutritional supplementary snacks or meal toppers for older kids as well. A Commitment Rooted in Personal Experience The inspiration behind Taleii dates back to Carole’s experience as a new mother in the Fiji Islands. Faced with limited options for tasty and nutritious baby food, Carole began preparing homemade meals using the best ingredients from local markets. Over thirty years later, Taleii’s Co-Founder, Carole, recognized a significant nutritional gap in children's diets. Determined to make a change, she enlisted the expertise of her daughter Talei, a trained chef from Le Cordon Bleu. Together, they aimed to address the unmet demand for fresh, high-quality baby food. This led to the founding of Taleii in Singapore. The name "Taleii," meaning "precious one" in Fijian, reflects their unwavering commitment to providing the best nutrition for every child. Taleii ensures that its line of fresh blends is meticulously created to support children's various developmental stages, expand their acceptance of plant-based nutrition and textures, and cater to even the pickiest eaters. Innovative and Nutritious Taleii is the first baby food brand in Singapore to utilize High-Pressure Processing (HPP), a method of cold pasteurization that retains up to 95% of nutrients. This ensures that Taleii products are both nutritious and delicious. Talei, the daughter and chef behind the brand, curates unique recipes tailored to meet the evolving tastes and nutritional needs of growing children. Collaborating closely with clinical dietitians and pediatricians, Taleii ensures that their recipes are optimized for different developmental stages. Official Launch of Taleii on 16 May Taleii celebrated its official launch last week on 16 May at the new DA Orchard MedSuites at COMO Orchard. Honored as parents' most trusted purée brand in The AsianParent Awards 2024, Taleii introduced their latest products, redesigned to cater to a broader spectrum of children. The brand hosted an exclusive event where guests were treated to a tasting of the nine varieties of Taleii fresh blends, featuring a convenient spout and adjusted weight size. The culinary experience was elevated with canapés and drinks from Como Cuisine, complemented by pastries from the acclaimed Chef Pâtissier, Cedric Grolet. Co-Founder and Chef Taleï Butel expressed her excitement for the official launch of the fresh blends, "The positive reception to our new product line truly humbles me. At Taleii, we are committed to providing safe, nutritious, and delicious options for growing families. It brings me great joy to see our vision come to life. Carole and I are excited to see how we can play a part in positively impacting the lives of children and families in Singapore. " Expert Collaboration Taleii works with a panel of experts, including clinical dietitians, pediatricians, and family wellness physicians, ensuring that its fresh blends support children's various developmental stages and expand their acceptance of plant-based nutrition. Holistic nutritionist Riyana Rupani highlighted the impact of nutrition on a child’s development during the event. Partnership with Doctor Anywhere The launch was presented in collaboration with Doctor Anywhere and their DA Little Warriors program, dedicated to supporting the health and well-being of children aged 12 and under by providing 24/7 access to affordable healthcare, as well as valuable resources for parents. “We are thrilled to support Taleii's event, which aligns perfectly with Doctor Anywhere's dedication to child health and reflects our ongoing efforts to enhance and expand our services, including home-based child vaccination and online paediatric consultations," said Sharon Liew, Head of Partnerships at Doctor Anywhere. A Vision for the Future Carole and Talei’s journey from Fiji to Singapore embodies a dedication to quality and love that is infused in every Taleii product. Their rebranding signifies a renewed commitment to excellence in children’s nutrition. Taleii's use of High-Pressure Processing (HPP) preserves the nutritional integrity and taste of the ingredients, making healthy eating an enjoyable and easy choice for parents and children alike. As Taleii continues to grow, their vision remains steadfast: to ensure that every child has access to the best possible nutrition, enabling them to thrive. With a foundation built on love, tradition, and scientific expertise, Taleii is poised to make a significant impact on the way children eat and grow in Singapore and beyond. All Taleii fresh blends are cold pasteurised using high-pressure processing that can effectively retain up to 95% of nutrients in food. The products are periodically sent to government-approved labs for rigorous testing to ensure they are free from heavy metals and other contaminants. Each 100g pouch is priced at $6. 80 and is available in 9 different fruit and vegetable variants made with selected unique ingredients to choose from.

This surge underscores the critical importance of prioritizing cleanliness and regular sanitization practices. As the threat of the virus persists, it becomes increasingly clear that maintaining a clean environment is essential to safeguarding public health and minimizing the risk of transmission. Therefore, it is crucial for individuals and communities to remain vigilant and proactive in adhering to proper hygiene protocols. By doing so, we can collectively contribute to the ongoing efforts to combat the spread of COVID-19 and protect the well-being of our communities. Despite the clear benefits of regular disinfection, many Singaporeans have grown complacent, overlooking this crucial safety measure. This complacency is understandable given the challenges associated with traditional sanitizing products. Issues such as the inconvenience of carrying bulky bottles, the need for frequent reapplication, and the ineffectiveness of many sanitizers against a broad spectrum of pathogens have deterred consistent use. Recognizing these challenges, TAIHO Pharmaceuticals, a R&D-driven specialty pharma company from Japan, has introduced a revolutionary solution: EFIL. EFIL is an innovative disinfectant spray designed to address these very concerns. Backed by rigorous research and testing over nearly five years in Japan, EFIL provides a full 24-hour protection against 99. 9% of Influenza and COVID-19 viruses. This long-lasting effectiveness means users no longer need to remember to reapply multiple times a day, providing a significant convenience and peace of mind. What sets EFIL apart from other commercial products is its comprehensive approach to disinfection. The formulation includes a combination of ethanol, silver, and zinc ions, which not only combat viruses and bacteria but also protect surfaces from mould formation and provide deodorising effects all in one go. This all-in-one science-backed spray is particularly beneficial for families with young children and elderly members, offering robust protection for those who are most vulnerable. Originally developed for individuals with compromised immune systems, EFIL's efficacy and ease of use have proven to be equally beneficial for young families with children. By promoting peace of mind and overall well-being, EFIL provides valuable support to families navigating the challenges of managing health conditions. In addition, its convenient 50 mL packaging makes it portable without adding significant weight to personal belongings, ensuring that protection is always within reach.

Following an intensive 10-month renovation and collaboration period, now under the new management of the Sim Leisure Group, this highly anticipated reopening marks the dawn of a new era for the facility. Amidst the buzz of anticipation, KidZania Singapore promises a vibrant array of new experiences alongside well-loved favourite, ensuring an unforgettable adventure for all who step through its doors. KidZania Singapore's reopening marks a significant milestone with a record number of 41 branded establishments and spanning an impressive 7,600 square meters across two levels, the facility offers a rich variety of international brands, regional market leaders, and beloved local favourites. Among the esteemed lineup are Malaysia Airlines, CIMB Singapore, Shopee, and global fashion icon H&M. Noteworthy local brands such as Irvin’s Salted Egg Chips, The Intan Peranakan Museum, The Straits Times, MediaCorp Studios and more further enrich the diverse offerings, ensuring an engaging experience for visitors of all ages. The reopening also sees the return of esteemed partners such as the Singapore Police Force (SPF), Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF), Yakult, and Kiss92FM. Additionally, visitors can engage in role-plays centered around mental health, nutrition, and environmental sustainability, enriching their experience further. Datin Silviya Georgieva, Executive Director, Sim Leisure Group, expressed excitement about the reopening: "We are thrilled to reopen KidZania Singapore with an expanded line-up of partners and role-play experiences. Our goal is to provide children with an immersive learning environment where they can explore various professions, develop essential life skills, and have fun while doing so. " Image credit to Datin Silviya Georgieva, Sim Leisure Group We spoke to Datin Silviya Georgieva where we gained insights into the meticulous process of selecting partner brands and the vision driving the transformation of KidZania Singapore into a hub for immersive learning experiences. 1) Could you elaborate on the distinctive challenges you faced in selecting the brands? What criteria guided your choices, and how do you believe these selections will enhance the learning journey for visitors to KidZania? Datin Silviya Georgieva (DSG): Selecting the right brands for KidZania Singapore posed several distinctive challenges. We are immensely proud of the array of popular partners we've secured, each sharing our vision and dedication to providing enriching activities and role-plays for children. Rebuilding confidence following the sudden closure was no small feat. However, I've been heartened by the overwhelming awareness and popularity of KidZania among Singaporeans. Drawing on our extensive experience in the theme park industry since 1993, along with a highly professional management team, we've navigated these challenges with determination. Our success in revitalizing KidZania Kuala Lumpur within seven months underscores our track record and commitment. With the unwavering support of our team, we've garnered the trust and enthusiasm of our partners, both international and local. We eagerly anticipate future collaborations that will further enhance the KidZania experience for all visitors. 2) As KidZania prepares to reopen, how are you addressing the age range of children you aim to attract, given that it has been a popular destination for children of various ages? DSG: KidZania caters to a wide age range, spanning from one to 17 years old. We have dedicated areas for toddlers, catering to children below four years old. Additionally, the majority of activities are designed for children aged four and above, ensuring an enjoyable experience for all age groups. 3) With such a diverse range of partners and activities at KidZania, how do you ensure that children have the opportunity to explore various role-plays and engage in a wide array of experiences? DSG: I'm delighted with the array of partners we've welcomed to KidZania. From the ever-popular firefighters and policemen to esteemed brands like H&M and Sastana, our offerings cater to diverse interests. With the introduction of sustainable activities in KidZania 5. 0, I take immense pride in the range of experiences available. While I can't single out one favourite activity, I strongly believe in allowing children to explore multiple role-plays to discover their passions. While we guide and teach them, ultimately, it's their interests that drive their experiences. Witnessing their joy and enthusiasm is truly rewarding for us. 4) Given that many parents in Singapore may have visited the KidZania branch in Kuala Lumpur, could you provide insights into the differences and similarities between the KidZania experiences in Singapore and Kuala Lumpur? DSG: Indeed, the KidZania concept remains consistent worldwide. However, what sets each location apart are the purpose partners and the variety of role-plays offered. This distinction is particularly notable in Malaysia, where KidZania has its own local branch. Each site complements the other, offering unique experiences tailored to their respective regions. As Singaporeans increasingly venture to Kuala Lumpur, they seek out experiences not found in their local KidZania. Some noteworthy differences include the presence of local Malaysian brands like Baskin Robbins and Every Sunday, alongside international partners such as Antica and Yaya Yaya. 5) Could you elaborate on any special features that are currently available at KidZania to enhance the visitor experience? DSG: Certainly, at KidZania, we've introduced a unique ticketing system aimed at enhancing visitor experience. By purchasing tickets online, visitors can enjoy various benefits, including streamlined entry processes and minimized queues. Once tickets are purchased online, they are linked to our ticketing system and activities, allowing for seamless entry upon arrival. Additionally, our system allows for re-entry into the park, providing families with the flexibility to explore other attractions outside KidZania if desired, before returning to continue their experience. This ensures a hassle-free and enjoyable visit for all our guests. 6) Lastly, what you like to say to our readers who are eagerly looking forward to visit KidZania? DSG: I am very excited about the upcoming reopening and the opportunities it brings. Despite the challenges, nothing beats the joy of seeing happy children and families enjoying themselves at the park. We extend a warm welcome to all Singaporean families and look forward to providing them with a... --- - Published: 2024-05-09 - Modified: 2024-05-09 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/walking-the-journey-an-interview-with-zann-lee-managing-director-of-skechers-southeast-asia-on-balancing-motherhood-and-leadership/ - Categories: INTERVIEW, PARENTING/EDUCATION - Tags: Skechers, Zann Lee As Mother’s Day approaches, it's a moment to honour and celebrate the remarkable women who pour their hearts into every aspect of life, whether at home or in the workplace. Ms. Zann Lee, Managing Director of Skechers Southeast Asia and a devoted mother of two teenagers, aged 15 and 17 years old, stands as a glowing testament to this exceptional group of mothers who adeptly balance family life and career with finesse. Zann's journey at Skechers Singapore began in 2009 as a Brand Manager, and over the past 15 years, she rose through the ranks and to her current role as the Managing Director of Skechers Southeast Asia, overseeing the business’ strategic operations, achieving regional sales targets, and spearheading key brand and marketing initiatives across Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, and other emerging markets. With her leadership, Skechers has expanded its presence to over 800 stores and a staff strength of over 1,150 across the region. Her ability to balance the responsibilities of motherhood with the demands of leadership is truly commendable. Our editorial team had the opportunity to interview Zann where she shared her valuable insights, strategies, and personal anecdotes on navigating the delicate balance of motherhood and leadership. Read on to find out more. Interview with Ms Zann Lee, Managing Director of Skechers Southeast Asia 1. Can you share your journey of balancing motherhood and your career at Skechers? How did you navigate through the challenges that arose from juggling these responsibilities, and what served as your main sources of motivation during difficult times? Zann Lee: I typically plan my work schedules in advance to ensure I can be there for my children when they need me. Establishing a support system is crucial, as there have been times when I could not be with them, and my husband stepped in. I make sure to communicate with my kids about why I might be absent, as I believe in maintaining open communication and fostering positivity within our family. My children are a major source of inspiration and motivation, especially during tough times. 2. As a mother of two teenagers and a working professional, how do you build and nurture your relationships with your children at home and your staff at work? Can you highlight some effective strategies you employ for fostering positivity and support in both settings? Zann Lee: I believe in building relationships and creating strong bonds with my two teenagers as well as with my staff/colleagues at work. I will set aside time to interact with them and know them better through activities, such as family dinners or team-building activities at work. I am a strong advocate for open and honest communication to foster trust and mutual understanding with active listening to ensure their thoughts and feelings are valued. 3. How do you define work-life balance and what are your ways of spending quality time with your children despite your busy work schedule? Zann Lee: To me, achieving work-life balance involves setting clear boundaries and defining dedicated times for work to prevent burnout. When my children were toddlers, I sacrificed my sleep to spend more time with them. I would then catch up on work after they were asleep. During their primary school years, I would make sure to make myself available to participate in most, if not all, of my children's activities, such as graduations, meet-the-parents sessions, performances and competitions. I also prioritized spending valuable weekends with them. 4. What are some valuable life lessons that motherhood has taught you, and how do you incorporate those lessons into your management style at work? Zann Lee: Raising two children has taught me invaluable lessons which I use in challenging work scenarios. I have learnt to be more patient and calm when dealing with difficult or stressful situations; have more empathy and understanding for colleagues and staff, and developed better resilience in the face of setbacks. These characteristics are essential in my leadership role because they allow me to overcome complex challenges effectively, strengthen relationships with my team, and inspire others to never give up and achieve their full potential. 5. Can you share some anecdotes or experiences that highlight the challenges, success, failures and resilience that you can share from your personal experiences, both at home and in the workplace? Zann Lee: I strongly believe in the REST & GROW approach:- R: Embracing calculated risk when making decisions. E: Being efficient and effective S: Simplicity and focus on necessities and priorities T: Always be Thankful With sufficient REST, we will then continue to GROW G: Goals Setting R: Responsible O: Take Ownership in our mistakes and in all relationship W: Be a Winner with the never say die attitude 6. Skechers is known for its supportive culture for working mothers. Could you elaborate on the initiatives you've implemented to support women in the workplace and how they have impacted the overall performance and morale of your team? Zann Lee: We offer a supportive environment for working mothers to excel and ensure equal opportunities for everyone, free from judgment. A good percentage of our management and staff teams consist of working mothers, thus fostering a strong support system for one another. 7. With your extensive experience in the retail industry, what advice would you give to our readers who are working mothers aspiring to advance in their careers while raising a family? Zann Lee: My advice to the readers would be to build a support system with both family and with colleagues. This ensures that they are people available to manage responsibilities and tasks when you are away. Secondly, plan ahead and also be flexible for schedule changes to accommodate both work and family responsibilities. Lastly, love and take care of yourself physically, mentally and emotionally so that you can be strong enough to be there for your family and work. 8. Skechers has experienced significant growth under your leadership. What do you attribute this success to, and how do you continue to drive innovation and expansion in... --- - Published: 2024-05-08 - Modified: 2024-05-08 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/not-just-childs-play-the-theatre-practice-launches-the-inaugural-berries-chinese-theatre-festival-family-edition/ - Categories: ENTERTAINMENT, PARENTING/EDUCATION - Tags: Berries Chinese Theatre Festival, The Theatre Practice Searching for June holiday activities? The Theatre Practice (Practice), Singapore’s longest standing bilingual theatre institution, and Berries World of Learning School is excited to announce the launch of the inaugural Berries Chinese Theatre Festival: Family Edition, happening from 18 May to 9 June. The festival includes two theatrical productions and two interactive experiences — suitable for the whole family! Rediscovering the Magic of our World through the Eyes of a Child For almost six decades, Practice has championed arts education with a play-centric approach, while creating multi-faceted opportunities to expose young minds to Chinese language and culture. Nurturing generations of young minds through its Theatre For Young Audiences (TYA) productions, long-term classes and school programmes, Practice has been recognised by the National Arts Council Singapore as a pioneer organisation under the Enhanced Arts Education Programme (NAC-AEP). Extending this legacy into a family-oriented theatre festival is a natural next step. Curated to encourage intergenerational bonding and mutual learning, the festival is positioned towards families rather than children specifically. “Children are naturally curious and often find unexpected discoveries that grown-ups miss because we’re not paying attention. In fact, many of us become locked into certain mindsets when we get older,” notes Kuo Jian Hong, Artistic Director of The Theatre Practice. “The festival is an invitation to rediscover the magic of our world through the eyes of a child. Big and small kids alike — let’s get to know each other, and grow together through play! ” Making Mandarin Fun Again: Get Grooving with Two Interactive TYA Musical Productions The wildly popular Here Comes the Breakfast Kakis: Imagine Our Songs! series returns once again with two stories: Don’t Catch Me and Going Home, stories from the series’ pandemic-era Digital Theatre edition now given a fresh remake for the physical stage. Featuring familiar nursery rhymes like Poplar Tree and Catching Loaches, the interactive production is guaranteed to have kids, parents and grandparents alike all singing along! Additionally, audiences can look forward to a pre-show arts and craft session where they’ll be tasked with creating parts of the set, using foraged and recycled materials. More than a performance, the Imagine Our Songs series is an innovative approach to help young children embrace the Chinese language at a tender age. Part of Practice’s long-running The Nursery Rhymes Project (which also include music albums and illustrated lyric books), the Imagine Our Songs productions have been seen by an international audience of over 20,000 since 2017. The festival’s second production is a much anticipated restaging of The wee Question Mark and the Adventurer, which won Best Production for the Young at the The Straits Times’ Life! Theatre Awards 2016. The production’s original creative team include director Kuo Jian Hong, Mandopop lyricist Xiaohan and composer Julian Wong — who are also three of the creative minds behind Practice’s critically acclaimed mainstage musicals Lao Jiu: The Musical, If There’re Seasons... , and Liao Zhai Rocks! . The family musical invites audiences to join intrepid storytellers wee Question Mark, Comma and Exclamation Mark as they spin a nautical tale of Mai Mai’s adventure to find her father. Combining wacky storytelling, original music and audience participation, the highly interactive play-within-a-play is a joyful work that tackles difficult questions and ably discusses failure through the series’ signature light touch. A Culture of Play: Artful Participatory Experiences for the Whole Family Beyond theatrical productions, the festival also includes two parent-child experiences, which can be combined for a full day out! The first is Play With: The More We Move Together! , conducted by veteran Practice Education Project Children’s Courses instructor Ang Lay Hoon, affectionately known as Teacher Red. Informed by her 20 years of teaching experience in the movement and arts field, the 2-hour experience combines music, movement, games and crafts to unlock the imagination and creativity of the young and young at heart alike. Parents and children are asked to cast aside their inhibitions, embrace silliness and get to know each other as equals, in a different context! With her regular Play In Arts classes fully subscribed with long waiting lists, this is a rare opportunity to experience Practice’s play-centric approach to Arts Education. The festival’s other experience, Play With: Pickles! , is a family-friendly version of Practice Tuckshop’s long-running community pickling programme Pickle Pop-Up. “Cooking can be a form of artistic expression,” says Practice Associate Artist and Pickle Pop-Up creator Ang Xiao Ting. “At the same time, pickling is an easy entrypoint to teaching young ones about cool science concepts, and to explore the different ways we can preserve food and reduce food waste. ” Featuring child-friendly recipes for pickles, jams and preserves, and requiring zero cooking experience (for kids AND adults), the highly interactive experience is also a great way to get the entire family comfortable in the kitchen. Nurturing Young Minds and Inspiring the Next Generation Established in 1993, festival title sponsor Berries World of Learning School has a long history of developing children’s Chinese language proficiency at the nursery, kindergarten and primary school levels. They have also been a long-term supporter of Practice, while Practice has also participated in their Growing Up Parent-Child Night Bazaar (2018, 2023). “Over the years, Berries World of Learning School has been dedicated to creating an enriching Chinese language environment, transcending traditional boundaries, and extending Chinese language learning beyond the confines of the classroom,” explains Berries’ Managing Director Ms Wynne Li. “I am also committed to integrating life and art, offering both children and adults multifaceted experiences with the Chinese language. May this festival spark joy and wonder in the hearts of our children as they embark on an unforgettable journey. Together, let us unite our efforts in inspiring the children of today, to light up the world of tomorrow! ” Tickets for Berries Chinese Theatre Festival: Family Edition are now on sale now!

Read on to find out more. Interview with Nithiyia Rao, Mediacorp OLI 968 DJ 1. Can you provide some insights into your background and your role at Mediacorp OLI 968? What responsibilities do you handle as a DJ at the station? Nithiyia Rao: I began my journey in the media industry in 2011 through a beauty pageant titled ‘Miss Vasantham’ and finished as the 1st runner-up. Ever since then, I have been acting and hosting on screen for almost 12 years. I also won ‘Best Actress’ at Medicaorp’s Pradhana Vizha 2012 for my debut role in a long form drama series titled ‘Nijangal’. I got my first opportunity to be guest DJ on radio for about 2 months in 2017 and I completely fell in love with the entire experience. I never knew I would enjoy being on-air as much as I loved being on screens. Unfortunately, there were no permanent openings with Mediacorp OLI 968 at the time. But, in 2023, the opportunity presented itself, and I became a full-time radio DJ. As a DJ at Mediacorp OLI 968, I am responsible for planning and presenting on-air content creatively. I also produce social media videos with my co-DJ Vimala, where the two of us go on a hawker food hunt, together with popular celebrities. As a DJ, I will also represent my community at various cultural events, which I host. I also organise tentpole events such as the Mediacorp Oli 968’s Junior Presenter’s Workshop and Mother’s Day event, amongst others, with my fellow DJs. I love how we can explore and apply our skillset to multiple areas in this job. 2. Can you describe your parenting journey and the parenting style you adopt? How does it differ, if at all, from your husband, Ebi Shankara's parenting style? Nithiyia Rao: In our parenting journey, my husband plays the bad cop and I play the good cop. He is the disciplinarian, and I prefer a gentler approach. Sometimes we do have arguments, especially when he feels that I should be firm. My husband trusts me to make decisions and gives me the respect of being Sushanth’s mother. 3. How has your parenting style evolved over the years, particularly in light of your career and personal growth? Nithiyia Rao: Before I joined Mediacorp Oli 968, I was working as a part time Speech and Drama trainer where I had the liberty to spend most of my time with Sushanth during his early years. Sushanth grew to be very attached to me, which was why it was challenging for me to pursue a full-time job back then. Now that Sushanth is turning 3, it is a lot easier to communicate and understand Sushanth’s wants and needs. And I must say that I am fortunate that I joined Mediacorp OLI 968 at a time when my son is able to understand whenever I need to step out to work. This would also not have been possible if I did not have my family’s support. I am grateful for my parents and in-laws who are always readily available to help us. 4. What were some significant challenges you faced in parenting your son, and how did you navigate through them? Nithiyia Rao: Since Sushanth is attached to me, sometimes he does not take me seriously when I try to discipline him, so having a balance of being strict and friendly is a big challenge. To cope with this, I approached a few friends and mum support groups who share the same sentiments. I am trying some of the methods recommended by them, hopefully, one day I would be able to help Sushanth manage his emotions better. 5. As a working mother, how do you manage to balance your career with parenting responsibilities? Can you share some specific struggles you've encountered and how you overcame them? Nithiyia Rao: This job has given me the flexibility to be there for my family and I am lucky to say that we have our family’s support whenever my husband and I need to be present at work. We try to work around our schedules, and we have been managing it well. At times, my husband forgoes his work or other plans if I need to be at work or events. As parents the only thing we fear is when our child falls sick. One such incident took place and that really tested my strength.

Organised by Science Centre Singapore with support from the Ministry of Education (MOE), NSTS is an acclaimed competition that aims to motivate and accord national recognition to students who excel in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). From 69 applications that were submitted for NSTS, nine finalists were shortlisted for their groundbreaking projects with the potential to impact the fields of engineering, computer science and mathematics, biomedical and material science. Ang Gedeon Kusuma from Raffles Institution and Wu Jaiqui from NUS High School of Mathematics and Science were selected as the second and the third winners of the competition, respectively. The finalists and winners of the National STEM Talent Search 2024 with (left) Professor Lim Seh Chun, Advisor, Special Projects, Office of Provost, SUTD and (right) Professor Ng Huck Hui, Assistant Chief Executive for Research and Talent Development, A*STAR and the Chief Judge of NSTS competition These nine NSTS finalists were judged on five technical and non-technical parameters such as, creative ability & independent thinking, scientific attitude and interest, potential to realize R&D vision, science communication, and depth of project understanding. This year’s NSTS finalists also represented some of the best submissions from the Singapore Science & Engineering Fair 2024 (SSEF) – a competition that gathered the nation’s brightest young scientists to tackle some of society’s biggest scientific issues. SSEF also conferred its Gold awards to 27 student projects after shortlisting a total of 350 submissions out of 617 applications. The joint award ceremony facilitated by Science Centre Singapore celebrated the culmination of an inspiring journey that challenged students to address real-world challenges around sustainability, digital age misinformation, medical conditions and diseases, improper computer system management, etc. All winners and shortlists in both competitions, were meticulously chosen for their ingenuity and dedication in developing groundbreaking projects across a diverse range of scientific disciplines. "We are incredibly proud of these young minds and the incredible feat they have achieved. Their understanding of complex STEM theories and applications is truly inspiring. These students haven’t just demonstrated remarkable intelligence, but also a relentless drive to innovate and solve real-world problems through their R&D”, said Associate Professor Lim Tit Meng, Chief Executive of Science Centre Board. "Both SSEF & NSTS are not just about celebrating innovative scientific projects; it's also about stimulating future scientific progress in Singapore and beyond. By fostering a culture of innovation and problem-solving at a young age, we are empowering these students to become the next generation of scientists and engineers to address critical issues faced not just by Singapore, but potentially the world. ” The first prize winning NSTS project, titled, ‘Precession, nutation, and dynamic trajectory of a magnetic rod in an axisymmetric magnetic field’, studied the precession and nutation of a magnetic rod in an axisymmetric magnetic field. Mentored by Dr. Bernard Ricardo at the NUS High School of Mathematics and Science, Martin Koh Zhen Xuan set out to understand the forces on spinning objects in his research by using magnetic rods in different magnetic fields. The experimental findings from his research have potential applications in areas such as engineering. "Judging this year's NSTS competition was truly an extraordinary experience. All projects showcased astonishing vision and deep technical expertise”, said Professor Ng Huck Hui, Assistant Chief Executive for Research and Talent Development, A*STAR who was the Chief Judge of the competition. These competitions are more than just contests; they're a breeding ground for future breakthroughs. One thing that stands out is the passion these young students possess, which gives us the confidence that the ecosystem of science and technology will witness greater developments in the future. ” The top three winners of NSTS 2024 went home with cash prizes worth $5,000, $3,000 and $2,000 respectively, along with a trophy and certificate. The remaining six finalists received commendation awards in the form of a $1,000 cash prize and a certificate. In addition, two of the finalists were selected for special awards – Gan Kah Shuen received the Chief Judge Special Award, and Vivienne Chua Xuan Yu received the Chairman Special Award. Furthermore, six teams from SSEF 2024 have been selected to represent Singapore in the Olympics of Science Competitions – the Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair 2024 (ISEF), held in in Los Angeles, California from May 11-17, 2024.

Interview with Leon Tsai, Founder of Home Baking Day Our editorial team interviewed Leon Tsai, Founder of Home Baking Day, where he shared more about his founding journey of the baking studio, the curation process behind the cake recipes available for Singaporean cake enthusiasts as well as a glimpse into Home Baking Day's exciting future plans, new offerings and seasonal menus. Read on to discover more about the passion and dedication driving Home Baking Day's baking revolution. 1. What inspired you to start Home Baking Day? Leon Tsai: My wife and I have always enjoyed baking and making our own treats, as it brought joy and a sense of satisfaction to us. We enrolled in baking classes and invested in baking equipment and tools. But we realised that if we don’t bake often enough, then the ingredients expire quickly and will eventually go to waste. Also, factors like complex recipes, the need to purchase expensive equipment, and the mess caused by baking, are some of the reasons why people don’t want to bake. So in 2016, I founded Home Baking Day in Taiwan, with the vision of making the baking process effortless for everyone. Through Home Baking Day, I hope that individuals of all skill levels and ages will be able to fully immerse themselves and truly enjoy the baking experience. 2. What sets Home Baking Day apart from other baking studios in the market? Leon Tsai: One key factor that sets Home Baking Day apart from other baking studios is the flexibility that we provide. Conventional baking studios in Singapore have fixed baking classes and standard timings which may not suit everyone’s schedules. At Home Baking Day, we allow customers to walk in at their convenience, as and when they are available. This flexibility caters to various schedules and ensures that the joy of baking can be experienced without any time constraints, making the process a lot more accessible and enjoyable. Home Baking Day also uses a tablet to guide customers throughout the entire baking process. The recipes on the tablet are detailed and easy to understand, even for people with little baking experience. Compared to other baking studios where you have to keep up with the teacher, you will be able to complete the entire baking task at your own pace at Home Baking Day, ensuring a fuss-free experience. And if you need any help during the process, our staff are always around. We also take care of the washing and cleaning up of the baking tools, so every time you visit Home Baking Day, you get to experience the joy of baking without having to worry about the mess. 3. How do you come up with the recipes? What's the curation process like? Leon Tsai: We have a standard menu of over 40 recipes which is refreshed twice every year. All our recipes are meticulously curated and designed to cater to the Singaporean taste buds. We conduct thorough market research to understand local tastes, and incorporate popular flavours while introducing unique twists to ensure that each recipe provides a fun experience for our customers. During the curation process, we will test our recipes carefully, so that they are suitable for bakers of all skill levels. 4. Apart from the standard menu, Home Baking Day also offers seasonal menus. How does this appeal to your customers? Leon Tsai: Our seasonal menu offers customers a chance to experience something new and exciting whenever they visit. The menus are based mainly on two factors; firstly by the seasons of fruits, and secondly, if there are any special occasions. By having seasonal ingredient menus like the recent one for strawberries, customers get to use the best ingredients at their tastiest. For others looking to celebrate an occasion, like Mother’s Day, our seasonal menu provides them with specially curated designs that will show their appreciation. They can either bake a cake as a gift or bake it... --- - Published: 2024-04-14 - Modified: 2024-04-14 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/destination-debut-experience-the-world-of-boss-at-the-luxury-boss-house-bali/ - Categories: STAYCATION/TRAVEL, STYLE/BEAUTY - Tags: BOSS, BOSS House Bali collection An unforgettable experience awaits in the idyllic paradise of Bali.

As Singapore grapples with a concerning rise in dengue cases, Bioré, a Japanese skincare brand, steps up to the challenge with the launch of their latest innovation: Bioré GUARD Mos Block Lotion. This groundbreaking product not only promises protection but also revolutionizes the way we approach insect repellents. About Bioré, this is Japan’s number one skincare brand known for its wide variety of products developed through Japanese research and development, expands its range of products and enters a new category with the brand new Bioré GUARD Mos Block Lotion. According to the National Environmental Agency (NEA), dengue cases in Singapore have alarmingly doubled in the first quarter of the year, resulting in seven fatalities attributed to local dengue infections. With mosquitoes being the primary vector for this disease, it's evident that conventional repellents may not be offering comprehensive protection needed to combat this public health threat. Enter Bioré GUARD Mos Block Lotion: A Breakthrough in Insect Repellent Technology Unlike conventional insect repellents that rely on volatile active agents to deter insects, Bioré GUARD Mos Block Lotion introduces a revolutionary approach with its Anti-Landing Technology to prevent mosquitoes from staying on the skin’s surface long enough to feed. This lotion marks the Japanese brand’s first expansion into insect repellent products. This Anti-Landing Technology developed by the scientists and researchers at Kao Corporation, makes use of the mosquitoes escape response when it comes into contact with hydrophobic substances such as low-viscosity silicone oil. In laboratory tests, mosquitoes have been observed to swiftly depart from the skin's surface upon contact with Bioré's Mos Block Lotion. Moreover, these resilient insects even attempt to try to remove the silicone oil, stopping them from biting. This groundbreaking method effectively stops mosquitoes from staying and biting, giving users great protection. Safety Meets Efficacy: The Bioré GUARD Mos Block Lotion Difference One of the most commendable aspects of Bioré GUARD Mos Block Lotion is its commitment to safety and skin health. DEET-free, dermatologically tested and hypoallergenic, this lotion contains no harmful ingredients, making it suitable for even the most sensitive skin types. Additionally, its non-sticky, moisturising formula, enriched with Vitamin E derivatives, making it suitable to be applied on both the face and the body for both adults and children above the age of four. Providing Protection for Hours Bioré GUARD Mos Block Lotion offers up to 8 hours of continuous protection, allowing users to go about their day without the constant need for reapplication. Furthermore, its water-resistant formula ensures efficacy even in humid conditions, while its easy removal with soap simplifies the post-application routine. A Fragrant Experience: Choose Your Scent, Protect Your Skin Adding a touch of personalisation to insect protection, Bioré GUARD Mos Block Lotion is available in two delightful scents: Floral and Lavender. Whether you prefer a subtle floral aroma or the soothing notes of lavender, there's a variant to suit every preference. This thoughtful addition enhances the overall user experience, making insect repellent application a more enjoyable ritual. Embrace Protection: Where to Find Bioré GUARD Mos Block Lotion From April 2024, Bioré GUARD Mos Block Lotion is available at leading retailers such as Watsons, Guardian, Unity, Welcia BHG, and Don Don Donki. Additionally, you can conveniently purchase it from Kao Official Stores on Shopee and Lazada. Retailing at $7. 90 for 100g, safeguarding yourself and your loved ones from mosquito-borne diseases has never been more accessible. By harnessing the power of Anti-Landing Technology, Bioré redefines the standards of insect repellents, empowering individuals to take control of their health and well-being. Don't wait for the next mosquito bite – embrace protection with Bioré GUARD Mos Block Lotion today! --- - Published: 2024-04-12 - Modified: 2024-04-12 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/farmhouse-a-testament-to-australian-quality-and-dairy-excellence/ - Categories: DINING - Tags: FARMHOUSE FARMHOUSE is proud to reaffirm its commitment to delivering the highest standards of Australian dairy quality, underlining its dedication to providing top-quality milk products to consumers in Singapore.

Although most parents prioritise an education that gives their kids a good head start in terms of academics, learning experiences that are only focused on the academic side may deprive your child of key life skills and insights that would serve them well in the future. To that end, great care should be taken when it comes to choosing which preschool to enrol your child in. It would be good for you to explore centres that promise a holistic education for your child, which is a learning approach that emphasises looking at the bigger picture. That means tackling the mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual needs of the learner as opposed to just focusing on academics, as is typical for many schools. Here are five aspects of a holistic educational approach that will set the ideal preschool apart from others: 1) The Curriculum is Child-Centred Holistic education is, at its core, child-centred. The approach of the educators should closely consider and be anchored on a child’s individual needs, instead of assuming that blanket pedagogies work for every child. What are your child’s interests at their age and development stage? What do they find enjoyable? How do they interact with their surroundings? The answers to these questions should factor into how your child will be taught, thus making the learning process much more individualised rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Little learners should be empowered, their voices should be heard out, and they should be encouraged at all times to freely express themselves. These are vital aspects of any preschool that proffers a holistic approach in their methods. For one such preschool in Singapore, consider enrolling in Kinderland, as Kinderland education puts a special emphasis on holistic learning through music, sports, and health education, and extracurricular activities. Find out what parents say about Kinderland to learn more about the school’s approach. 2) Environment and Community Are Key Aspects of the School’s Educational Approach It’s important to note that holistic education doesn’t occur in a vacuum. As the term suggests, it requires interconnection as a means of learning. The environment and community surrounding your child are very important aspects of their holistic learning journey, and your chosen preschool should boast both a conducive environment for learning and a strong sense of community among students, teachers, administrators, and parents. An environment where children can safely play and express themselves is paramount in your choice of preschool. This can entail, among other things, having a play area that’s outfitted with rubber mat flooring for safety, toys that don’t have choking hazards or pointed pieces in them, and a space free from other dangerous equipment or substances that kids can explore freely. Likewise, having a supportive community around them in the form of teachers and classmates will help bring out preschoolers’ best selves and teach them how to socialise. Don’t be remiss in finding a preschool environment that’s warm, open, and pleasant for your child to integrate themselves into every day. 3) Learning Experiences Go Beyond Textbook Approaches Learning in itself won’t happen effectively if the child receiving the instruction isn’t engaged with the material being taught. This is all the more important in the holistic approach to learning, wherein the focus should be on the child bringing out their own unique potential. A school that is truly holistic in their pedagogies will go beyond simply having kids follow rote instructions or memorise facts. Today’s holistic learning experiences are characterised by activities like the following: Play-and-learn sessions Arts and crafts to develop preschoolers’ creativity and focus Teaching kids how to play instruments to tap into their sense of rhythm Reading storybooks to cultivate a love for reading Later in life, these young pupils will have their fair share of lectures and tests. At this stage in their lives, however, where a holistic education would leave its mark, their learning potential is great when it’s the natural byproduct of them having fun. 4) Holistic Education Emphasises Building Empathy among Children Children by nature can be temperamental, which can sometimes lead to arguments or tantrums. Within a holistic educational framework, these aren’t things to be feared. Children will be taught, among other things, the importance of considering the feelings of others aside from their own. As mentioned earlier, community is a key aspect in a child’s holistic education. Upon interacting with peers, teachers, and their own parents or guardians in a community that teaches and practises empathy, the child can get a better understanding of a world that exists beyond their own. As they play, they’ll learn that sharing toys may be necessary. And as they openly interact with their teachers, they’ll get more chances to practise politeness and respect. Empathy can also be taught through storytelling and role-playing in class, as well as field trips or civic activities that can immerse preschoolers in the worlds of others in a hands-on manner. 5) Parents and Guardians Play a Key role in Holistic Education Your child’s learning experience does not end in class. Holistic education should be reinforced even at home. The onus is on you to supervise a home environment where your child’s voice is always heard and where they feel that their opinions and concerns matter. Moreover, as a parent or guardian, you should always be in touch with your child’s teachers. Holistic learning can be sustained at home if you can stay updated on your child’s learning progress and know how you can support them in ways that complement what’s being taught to them in preschool. Given the exhaustiveness and complexity of a holistic education, it does require dedication and effort from teachers and parents alike to be implemented to its fullest. However, the benefits are truly worth it, as children will be on a path to become well-rounded members of society at an early age. Whether your child is already enrolled in a program... --- - Published: 2024-04-11 - Modified: 2024-04-12 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/__trashed-2/ - Categories: STYLE/BEAUTY - Tags: Boutique Fairs Singapore Boutique Fairs Singapore is back with its highly anticipated Spring Summer 2024 Edition from Friday, April 26 to Sunday, April 28 at the F1 Pit Building.

The festival served as a monumental showcase of environmental advocacy and community engagement, captivating attendees with an array of edutainment activities and exciting performances, all leading to the symbolic Switch Off ceremony as Singapore goes dark. Set against the vibrant backdrop of Orchard Road, Singapore's bustling shopping district, the Switch Off event transformed the cityscape into a beacon of solidarity for global environmental conservation efforts. Throughout the day, families and communities immersed themselves in interactive experiences aimed at fostering eco-consciousness and understanding. Highlights of the 23 Festival activities included The WWF Nature, Climate, and Community edu-tainment booths, available throughout the day, featuring engaging educational games. Additionally, Mediacorp's 'Ask Wobi Anything' session with okto's Lil Wild character, Wobi, entertained children while addressing environment-related questions. Attendees also enjoyed a special meet-and-greet with beloved Sesame Street characters and engaging booth activities hosted by partners such as Epson (International Partner) and Watsons Singapore (Lead Partner). The festival reached its pinnacle with the unveiling of WWF-Singapore's groundbreaking hour bank initiative. The Earth Hour Festival served not only as a celebration of environmental stewardship but also as a testament to the power of collective action in safeguarding our planet for future generations. Our editorial team interviewed Jayasri Srikantan Lakshminarayanan, Head of Education Outreach at WWF-Singapore where she shared more and provided valuable insights into the Earth Hour movement and its focus on engaging children, youth in environmental initiatives and others. Read on to find out more. Interview with Jayasri Srikantan Lakshminarayanan, Head of Education Outreach at WWF-Singapore 1. Tell me a bit more about this year's Earth Hour Festival and how it is different from previous years'? Jayasri Srikantan Lakshminarayanan: This year’s Earth Hour Festival placed significant emphasis on collective action through meaningful partnerships and individual pledges. This year, Epson came on board as the first-ever international corporate partner of Earth Hour, leading by example on the importance of strategic collaborations in rallying climate action. In addition to that, we launched the global Hour Bank initiative in Singapore, urging individuals to dedicate an hour or more of their time towards climate action through sustainable and climate-positive activities. The goal is to encourage individuals to spend at least an hour of their time doing something positive for the planet. The festival on the 23rd of March included 23 activities scheduled throughout the day, catering to a diverse audience to ensure there was something enjoyable for everyone. WWF-Singapore featured three activity stations following our priority thematic areas at the event, each offering engagement and education through gamified experiences. The Climate & Sustainability booth aimed to raise awareness about the recyclable properties of different materials while the Nature booth taught players about ecosystem services in marine and terrestrial habitats and their role in promoting climate action. Additionally, the Community booth shared about our volunteer opportunities and promoted upcoming events, encouraging active participation in environmental initiatives. Exclusive goodies that help encourage and promote environmentally friendly lifestyles were available for WWF members and donors to acknowledge their support. Partnering with Epson, WWF-Singapore emphasised the importance of environmental conservation through sustainable activities like using repurposed ink cartridges as plant pots. This partnership not only raised awareness about the climate crisis but also shared about WWF programmes supported by Epson on the restoration of the coral triangle, a biodiversity hotspot in Southeast Asia. Engaging performances, such as those by the Green Drummers who utilised recycled materials to craft their instruments, added innovation and vibrancy to the event. Children were also able to partake in the festival through environmentally themed activities like face painting, glow-in-the-dark tattoos, and meet-and-greets with beloved characters Abby, Cookie Monster, and Elmo from Sesame Street. During the symbolic Switch Off moment, hosted by Joakim Gomez, special performances by WWF’s Eco-Schools, Damaru Singapore, and the Singapore Indian Fine Arts Society captivated attendees as lights dimmed across Orchard Road, marking a poignant moment in WWF-Singapore’s collective commitment to environmental conservation. 2. How do events like Earth Hour contribute to educating children about environmental issues, and what actions can they inspire in young people? Jayasri Srikantan Lakshminarayanan: The Earth Hour Festival provided a unique platform to engage children in environmental education and awareness-building activities. Through interactive workshops, storytelling sessions, and hands-on experiences, children were able to learn about the importance of protecting the planet while participating in fun and meaningful activities that promote environmental stewardship. By empowering our future generations to become environmental champions, we can build a generation of informed and engaged citizens committed to safeguarding the planet. In addition to their numerous episodes focusing on environmental topics, Sesame Street’s participation in Earth Hour highlights the importance of addressing environmental issues in our children’s education system and their daily lives. This collaboration represents the common goal of environmental action aimed at driving meaningful impact for the long term. 3. In Earth Hour, symbolic actions like switching off lights for an hour are significant. How can these gestures resonate with children, helping them understand the broader implications of energy consumption and climate change? Jayasri Srikantan Lakshminarayanan: These gestures serve as powerful tools for engaging young minds and helping them grasp the broader implications of energy consumption and climate change. When children participate in environmental initiatives such as the Switch Off, we want them to feel a sense of ownership and responsibility towards the planet. Hands-on experience can also foster a deeper connection with nature to instill a sense of environmental stewardship from a young age. We hope that exposure to such activities will help children to realise that even small changes in everyday behaviour, like turning off lights that are not in use, can play a part in positively impacting the reduction of carbon emissions and mitigation of climate change. Additionally, Earth Hour encourages the young to think more creatively about alternative ways to conserve energy and protect the planet.

Its wholesomeness that carries an abundance of nutritional benefits can now be enjoyed with the vegan-friendly and limited-edition NUTRISOY Fresh Soya Milk Kurogoma With Real Black Sesame. Kurogoma, or black sesame in Japanese, is an ingredient that is commonly used to enhance the flavours of both savoury dishes and in desserts in Asia. Whether ground into a bowl of delicious sesame paste or pudding, sprinkled on salads, or tossed into vegetable dishes, the possibilities are endless with this nutrient-rich seed that can enhance the enjoyment of every meal. The tiny yet mighty black sesame seeds offer numerous health benefits. A source of plant protein, the seeds are rich in fat, protein, and dietary fibre. Protein plays a vital role in the repair and construction of essential components within our bodies, including cells, tissues, organs, muscles, antibodies, and hormones. Dietary fibre slows down the release of sugars from digested food into the bloodstream, and may help to lower total cholesterol levels. Incorporating black sesame in the diet may enhance nutritional intake and overall well-being of the human body. For those who adopt a plant-based diet, it is often a challenge to consume certain essential nutrients like calcium and protein, which are primarily found in animal products. Soya beans, a good source of plant protein and calcium, are the only vegetable source that contains all nine essential building blocks of protein, known as amino acids. They are also classified as a low glycaemic index (GI) food due to their high protein and dietary fibre contents. For those who adopt a plant-based diet, soya beans are an alternate protein source. The wholesome and delicious range of vegan-friendly NUTRISOY products are high in plant-based protein, calcium, and vitamin D3 as compared to other soya bean beverages, and suitable for those who are lactose intolerant. NUTRISOY is certified heart-friendly by the Singapore Heart Foundation. Enjoy a cup of the aromatic, vegan-friendly and limited-edition NUTRISOY Fresh Soya Milk Kurogoma With Real Black Sesame, with no added preservatives. The seeds offer a delightful opportunity to relax, and indulge in the exquisite taste of this roasted nutty seed. The fragrant beverage earned a Nutri-Grade B label, is lower in sugar and carries the Healthier Choice Symbol accorded by the Health Promotion Board (HPB). It is halal-certified and can be found at all leading supermarkets, hypermarkets, and convenience stores with a Recommended Selling Price of S$2. 98 per 946ml pack.

The intricate woven leaves of the ketupat, featured on the 100PLUS Original 1. 5L bottles, are a powerful symbol of unity and joy that resonate deeply during the fasting month of Ramadan and the ensuing Hari Raya celebrations. This graphic representation of the ketupat is seamlessly represented with 100PLUS’ iconic and recognisable tri-band colours of blue, red, and green, representing the coming together of family, friends, and loved ones in a shared spirit of reflection and celebration. The ketupat, a traditional dish often enjoyed during the Hari Raya celebrations, is more than just food – it symbolises communal bonding and festivity. 100PLUS reaffirms its role as a cherished companion in hydration during the fasting month and moments of togetherness. During Ramadan, hydration becomes profoundly important as Muslims fast for long hours without water or food from dawn until the sun sets. Fluid lost through sweat contains more than just water - it also contains electrolytes (minerals) like sodium and potassium. These electrolytes are necessary for the body's day-to-day healthy functioning. Sodium also helps the body absorb and retain fluids effectively. 100PLUS is designed to address this need, offering essential hydration with electrolytes to replenish and revitalise the body after a long day of fasting. It ensures that maintaining optimal hydration is effortless and enjoyable, making 100PLUS the quintessential drink during iftar or the breaking of fast get-togethers. The importance of hydration extends beyond the fasting hours, particularly during the warm and humid days of the Hari Raya festivities. As families and friends engage in the joyous tradition of visiting, staying hydrated becomes even more crucial. 100PLUS is the perfect solution to everyone’s hydration needs, ensuring they can stay refreshed and hydrated as they enjoy the festivities and the joys of togetherness. 100PLUS invites its Muslim consumers to uplift their Ramadan observances and Hari Raya celebrations with the limited-edition 100PLUS Original 1. 5L. Let it serve as a delightful reminder of the joy of togetherness and the importance of staying hydrated, whether breaking fast during Ramadan or visiting family and loved ones during Hari Raya. 100PLUS is lower in sugar, carries the Healthier Choice Symbol accorded by the Health Promotion Board (HPB), and is Halal-certified. The 100PLUS Original 1. 5L is currently available at major retailers such as Cold Storage, Giant, FairPrice and Sheng Siong. It has a Recommended Selling Price (RSP) of S$2. 50, and is available while stocks last. For more information, please visit https://100plus. com. sg.

Now, The Ordinary, renowned for its commitment to science-backed formulations, introduces Retinal 0. 2% Emulsion – a potent retinoid offering a step stronger in the journey towards smoother, firmer skin. Whether you're a newcomer to retinoids or a seasoned user, The Ordinary has always strived to cater to all skin types and preferences. Understanding the desire for effective solutions, the brand has expanded its repertoire to include three distinct iterations of Vitamin A: retinol, granactive retinoid, and now, the latest addition – retinaldehyde. Resurface your Skin-While You Sleep Retinal 0. 2% Emulsion is a light emulsion offering a high concentration of retinaldehyde (also more commonly known as Retinal), a well-studied retinoid that targets the look of fine lines and wrinkles, skin roughness, skin tone homogeneity and radiance with skin appearing more plump and firm after 2 weeks, further improving at 6, 8 and 10 weeks. Retinaldehyde is a form of Vitamin A that is one conversion step closer than retinol to the most direct form of vitamin A, as retinol must undergo two conversions once applied to the skin. Once retinaldehyde goes through its single conversion, it helps to support skin's natural renewal, thus improving the look of facial wrinkles, skin roughness, and uneven skin tone. This single step process offers a more efficient delivery of the bioactive form of the molecule as most retinoids must be converted to their bioactive form once applied, in order to bring about benefits to the skin. This particular formulation significantly improves the appearance of frown lines and crow's feet after 6 weeks, with further improvements seen at 8 and 10 weeks. Improves the look of forehead lines after 8 weeks, with further improvements at 10 weeks4, and improves the appearance of uneven skin texture and tone after 2 weeks, with further results up to 10 weeks. Improves the look of forehead lines after 8 weeks, with further improvements at 10 weeks, and improves the appearance of uneven skin texture and tone after 2 weeks, with further results up to 10 weeks. It is always important to note that the use of topical retinoids (such as retinal and retinaldehyde) can lead to skin irritation and discomfort for some individuals. What sets the formulation of Retinal 0. 2% Emulsion apart from existing options from The Ordinary is the addition of Synthetic Oat Analogues, which are a synthetic form of avenanthramide, a key beneficial component found in oats that targets skin discomfort and dryness. Retinal 0. 2% Emulsion is a treatment to be used exclusively at night time, which means all the benefits of the product step into action while you're asleep. It is also heavily recommended to use sun protection daily while using a retinoid as it can make the skin more sensitive to UV exposure. Retinal 0. 2% Emulsion by The Ordinary represents a significant leap forward in the quest for radiant, youthful skin. With its potent formulation, backed by scientific rigor and a commitment to skin health, it paves the way for individuals to embark on a transformative skincare journey with confidence and clarity. So, bid farewell to fine lines and uneven texture – and embrace the radiant glow of revitalized skin, courtesy of The Ordinary's latest innovation. How to Choose Your Formulation For the first-time retinoid user: Retinol 0. 2% in Squalane An oil-like, low-strength retinal great for first-time users. For the occasional retinoid user: Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion A creamy formulation strong enough to resurface skin, yet gentle enough to cause minimal irritation. For the advanced retinoid user: Retinol 0. 5% in Squalane An oil-like formulation ideal for the occasional retinal user looking for a moderate-strength retinoid.

The Limited Edition F&N MAGNOLIA Kurma Real Dates Low Fat Milk, with its creamy and rich flavour, makes its return with a fresh new look while retaining its wholesome goodness this Ramadan. It serves as the perfect beverage for Sahur (pre-dawn meal) and Iftar (breaking of the fast meal) throughout the fasting month. This all-natural, delicious drink is made from just two ingredients – creamy low-fat milk and nutritious real kurma, or dates, without any additives. Ramadan holds immense significance for the Muslim community in Singapore and worldwide. The month is highly regarded as a time for spiritual reflection and self-discipline. It is also observed as a month of harmonious get-togethers and bonds of kinship. Ramadan transforms the dining table at home into a point of unity as families, friends, and loved ones congregate for Sahur at pre-dawn, and gather again to break their fast over the Iftar meal as the sun sets. Such gatherings embody the spirit of togetherness, reinforcing social ties and instilling a sense of belonging and community among adherents, making Ramadan a cherished time of year. Kurma, or dates as they're known to the Malay-Muslim community in Singapore, are a global Ramadan must-have, served on dining tables worldwide during the fasting month. Families, friends and neighbours come together with servings of kurma to observe the time to break their fast. Kurma is also essential for nourishment during sahur, preparing the young and old before starting their fast at dawn. Highly regarded as a nutritious superfood, dates are enjoyed as a snack and a natural sweetener in many dishes and desserts. Dates are rich in carbohydrates, minerals, dietary fibre, fatty acids, and amino acids; meeting the essential daily human nutritional requirements. Scientific researches have shown that dates have a high antioxidant content, surpassing other fruits in polyphenol levels. They are also known to contain significant amounts of vitamins A and K, crucial antioxidants for protecting cells from oxidative damage. Iron, naturally occurring in dates, is a vital mineral crucial for red blood cell formation and preventing anaemia.

Ginger, the all-day dining venue is thrilled to showcase 'Flavours of Curry & Tradition: A Nasi Kandar Affair,' showcasing the popular northern Malaysian cuisine from Penang. This culinary celebration will take place from March 11 to April 9, exclusively during the dinner buffet hours. Origin of Penang’s famed Nasi Kandar Nasi kandar is said to have derived its name from the way it was served back in the days, from baskets balanced on poles hefted (bergandar) onto the shoulder of its street seller. Rice and curries are dished from these roaming peddlers, served by the road, on the go, and enjoyed by people from all walks of the working class. Its rice gets its distinct flavours from being steamed in wood and the curries are heavy rich, thick, and aromatic, often cooked to the recipes of Tamil Muslim families. Mutton, squid, chicken, quail, tongue, beef or oxtail and vegetables are cooked in curry sauces, which range from butter-rich, pale, and creamy, to original dark gravy with a hint of aniseed. By the mid-20th century, the traditional approach of transporting the rice and dishes on the shoulder began to wane off, as many sellers moved towards selling nasi kandar in stalls and alleyways. In the 1970s more vendors invested in the restaurant industry, further departing from the mobile eatery origins of nasi kandar. An original name in nasi kandar, Nasi Kandar Jamal Mohamed has been serving up its robust curries ladled in generous portions and potency onto plates of meats, seafood, and more, since 1988. Beginning as a small pushcart along Jalan Kampung Benggali in Butterworth, mainland Penang, its location under a giant Ketapang tree quickly won it the nickname of ‘Nasi Kandar Pokok Ketapang’ as a local reference. It opened its second outlet on the island spurred by popular demand, where its fame skyrocketed and quickly fueled the subsequent three others in Kuala Lumpur. Today a full-fledged chain operating 24 hours across the country, its renown has made many ardent fans and long queues. Flavours of Curry & Tradition: A Nasi Kandar Affair Weaved into Ginger’s existing all-you-can-eat dinner spread will be exclusive mamak dishes rarely found outside of Penang mamak shops. Novices will enjoy authenticity in the addictive flavours while loyalists will be brought back to their roots with multiple servings of their favourite nasi kandar with kari banjir (flooded curry). Begin with options of Nasi Minyak, steamed ghee rice; Nasi Biryani, spiced basmati rice; or Blue Pea Flower Coconut Rice that will best accompany the medley of curries available. Chicken comes in options of Ayam Goreng Bawang fried chicken with onions, a marque signature dish since its opening, or Ayam Masak Madu chicken cooked in sweet, caramelized honey. Eat your greens with the Kubis sauteed shredded cabbage with mustard seeds as well as Bendi poached lady fingers that will effectively soak up the best flavours of your curry of choice. L: Ayam Masak Madu (chicken cooked in honey sauce) R: Daging Masak Kicap (beef brisket cooked in dark soy sauce) Bring on the meats like Daging Masak Kicap, another house signature dish of beef brisket cooked with dark soy sauce for hours, resulting in fall-off-the-bone tenderness. It is accompanied by Perut Kambing* lamb tripe curry or Kambing Shank lamb shank curry offered on rotation offering off-cut parts simmered to incomparable flavour in a rich, spiced kuah gravy. Seafood is equally tempting with Kari Ikan, a staple fish curry exploding with flavours. If you love prawns, miss not the Sambal Udang, a fiery dish of river prawns cooked in thick sambal sauce that permeates the shell and richly lends to the sweetness of the prawns. The Sotong Bawang is also delectable to the last bite with large juicy whole squid cooked with onions. Bring things up a notch with premium orders offered on rotation, such as Sambal Ketam* whole crab cooked with fragrant sambal and Mamak Style Baby Lobster^ poaching whole baby lobsters to incomparable savouriness. The Perfect Match with Ginger’s Buffet Spread Taste the above as the perfect additions to Ginger’s dinner buffet that features a myriad of cuisine from diverse ethnicities and food cultures in Singapore, cooked up from a fully-certified halal kitchen. Starters tempt with a build-your-own salad bar and other local renditions of salads such as Singapore Rojak DIY, Nonya Achar, Smoked Duck Breast with Mixed Beans, and Mango salads. Move on to the sushi that has the full works of Tamago Egg, assorted Maki, and fresh sashimi of salmon, tuna, and octopus. Dig in to carefully steamed dim sum before you proceed to the roast carvery section where slow-roasted wagyu beef and lamb chop^ alongside chicken and lamb satays are available for the meat lovers. Western delights such as Spanish style beef brisket and tripe stew, roasted root vegetables, En Papillote barramundi and baked cheesy boston lobster^ are available as well.

This retail project goes beyond being just a store; it serves as a resounding declaration of purpose. It stands as a symbol of Samsonite’s commitment to leading the sustainable transformation of the lifestyle bag and travel luggage industry. “We are not just creating luggage, we aim to shape the industry to be more sustainable, one journey at a time,” Mr Satish Peerubandi, Vice-President of Samsonite SEA, declared. Samsonite launched its comprehensive global sustainability strategy, “Our Responsible Journey,” focusing on three strategic pillars – Product, Planet, and People in 2020. The sustainability strategy is the compass guiding its decision-making on the journey to 2030 and the path to its long-term ambition. Besides ramping up the use of sustainable materials in products and packaging, Samsonite is also actively moving towards a future where backpacks partially borne from recycled plastic bottles and suitcases crafted in part with waste plastics are the norm. Sustainability is woven into Samsonite’s tapestry and impacts more than the products developed. It can also be seen in how the company engages its people, partners, and communities. The latest outlet at Suntec City epitomises this commitment. An Immersive Journey into Sustainable Retail Step through the doors to stand at the crossroads where innovative design meets thoughtful environmental practices. Efforts have been made to design each fixture with sustainability in mind. The Balau wood sculptures framing the space go beyond infusing the store with a touch of elegance — they also tell the story of rebirth. Each piece of wood used has spent at least 30 years in shipyards at Tuas, before being recrafted and given a second life, further adding to the store’s timeless charm. Similarly, the store’s external facade was fabricated from recycled aluminum from a supplier known for producing luggage made of recycled aluminum. The cashier counter was fashioned from plastic waste that undergoes a process of cleaning, shredding into flakes, and then reforming and designing into a new cashier counter. The shelves are made from recycled plastics that were intentionally crafted to look identical to the current glass and laminate sheets. All these again demonstrate how with creativity and innovation, waste materials can be given a new, productive lease of life. Be a Part of Samsonite's "Our Responsible Journey" Come, explore the new store and experience how mindful choices can create a shopping experience that benefits both consumers and the planet. The Samsonite Suntec City store will also be part of Samsonite’s annual Luggage Trade-in campaign. With every successful Luggage Trade-in transaction, SGD10 will be donated to WWF-Singapore’s Earth Hour campaign to build a nature-positive, net-zero carbon, and equitable future. Check out Samsonite's first-ever store that offers a sustainable alternative approach at Suntec City Tower 1, #01-476 / 482. --- - Published: 2024-03-06 - Modified: 2024-03-06 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/oh-so-good-every-sip-of-the-limited-edition-fn-magnolia-cookies-cream-low-fat-flavoured-milk/ - Categories: DINING - Tags: F&N MAGNOLIA Cookies & Cream Low Fat Flavoured Milk F&N MAGNOLIA introduces an exciting addition to its delicious lineup of dairy delights - the limited edition Cookies & Cream Low Fat Flavoured Milk. This indulgent concoction combines the tempting and creamy taste of Cookies & Cream with the nutritious, wholesome goodness of low fat milk to satisfy cravings. Crafted for those who enjoy tasty goodness in every sip without compromising on health and nutritional benefits, this new offering promises an enjoyable balance of Cookies & Cream, making it a perfect treat for any time of the day for both young and old – whether it’s for after meals, a well-deserved break at work or school, or indulging in the cosy ambience at home with family and friends over a movie screening. With F&N MAGNOLIA's commitment to trusted quality and taste, this limited edition flavoured milk redefines indulgence in a healthy and enjoyable way. Cookies & Cream is a universal favourite treat, loved for its irresistible combination of sweet, creamy vanilla and chocolate cookies' rich, crunchy texture. This classic pairing of Cookies & Cream is popular due to the perfect balance between the smoothness of cream and the cocoa-rich bite of cookie crumbs. When infused into milk, the flavour of Cookies & Cream heightens the simple pleasure of chilled, refreshing and wholesome milk to an extraordinary taste experience. The creamy base of the milk complements the sumptuous swirls of Cookies & Cream flavour, elevating every sip to create a mouthwatering delight. Every sip of the F&N MAGNOLIA Cookies & Cream Low Fat Flavoured Milk is the perfect treat that combines the nutritional benefits of milk with the appeal of a distinctively alluring, yummy flavour. It's not just a treat; it's an experience, an enticing thrill for the tastebuds, and it leaves you yearning for more than just one sip. Various research journals have highlighted that milk is an important component of a balanced diet and contains numerous valuable health benefits, especially with regard to the benefits of protein and calcium contained in milk. According to a research paper published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (USA), milk is a nutrient-dense food with important nutritional value due to the presence of protein, calcium, and other nutrients. Protein in milk helps maintain muscles and stimulates the building of muscles in our bodies which is necessary for growth and development. HealthHub (Singapore) highlighted that milk assists in promoting bone density as milk is an excellent source of calcium and phosphorus. These nutrients are crucial for developing and maintaining strong, healthy bones and teeth, and reduce the risk of osteoporosis and bone fractures later in life. The limited edition F&N MAGNOLIA Cookies & Cream Low Fat Flavoured Milk is Halal-certified, lower in sugar and saturated fat, rated B on the Nutri-Grade scale, and carries the Healthier Choice Symbol accorded by the Health Promotion Board (HPB). The delectable treat is available in a 946ml pack and retails at the Recommended Selling Price (RSP) of S$3. 63, and can be found at leading supermarkets and hypermarkets, and participating retail outlets.

However, more than one-third of respondents do not due to forgetfulness. Recognising the difficulty of incorporating healthier eating habits into daily life, Zespri drew inspiration from pillboxes designed to remind people to take their medicine and supplements daily. Consequently, they have launched "The Fruit Pillbox," a limited-edition packaging aimed at encouraging consumers to incorporate a daily kiwifruit into their routine. The Fruit Pillbox is also designed to gently nudge parents into fostering a healthy habit for their kids (and maybe even themselves) with those essential daily servings. From 2 to 7 March 2024, while stocks last, you can find The Fruit Pillboxes at these FairPrice Finest outlets: Bukit Timah Plaza Junction 8 Thomson Plaza Waterway Point The Fruit Pillbox features seven compartments labelled Monday through Sunday, each containing a Zespri SunGoldTM kiwifruit. This design is inspired by Nudge Theory, offering subtle reminders for healthier choices. A straightforward way to add a burst of goodness to your family's routine. Fun fact Despite their pint-sized stature, Zespri kiwifruit are nutritionally dense superfruits. Just one kiwifruit meets 100% of your daily Vitamin C need. Talk about packing a punch! While The Fruit Pillbox is offered in limited quantities, Zespri kiwifruits are readily available in the usual punnets across all FairPrice stores. A Zespri SunGoldTM kiwifruit is naturally high in Vitamin C, and each contains more than 100% of daily Vitamin C requirements. Zespri kiwifruits are also low in glycaemic index and a source of folate. The Fruit Pillbox is meticulously crafted to be inclusive and sustainable, ensuring that everyone will be able to enjoy the goodness of kiwifruit. The Fruit Pillbox is printed using environmentally friendly, vegetable-based inks. In a commitment to inclusivity, the days of the week are also imprinted in braille, making it accessible to the visually impaired. The environmentally conscious design extends to the material itself, as the packaging is crafted from 100% recyclable materials. This aligns with Zespri's broader packaging goals and commitment to achieving 100% recyclable, reusable or compostable packaging by 2025. --- - Published: 2024-03-01 - Modified: 2024-03-08 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/march-into-happiness-with-timezone-singapores-month-long-celebrations/ - Categories: EVENTS - Tags: Timezone Timezone, the world’s leading family entertainment centre, is thrilled to announce a month-long celebration of happiness in honour of International Happiness Day which falls on 20 March 2024.

Continue reading to discover more about Nelson's captivating story. Interview with Nelson Sanchez, who portrays the iconic character Aladdin in Disney On Ice 1. Can you share with us the moment you fell in love with skating and how it has shaped your life since then? Nelson Sanchez: I fell in love with skating after seeing my first ice skating during my first Canadian winter after moving there from the Dominican Republic. My mom took me to watch one of her friends perform in an ice skating show and I loved everything about it. Shortly after my mom bought me my first pair of skates. That moment shaped my life into what it is today and now I get to travel the world and do what I love. 2. Your mother played a pivotal role in nurturing your love for skating. Could you elaborate on how her belief in you has influenced your approach to life and your career in skating that led you to the iconic role of Aladdin in Disney On Ice? Nelson Sanchez: As cheesy as it sounds, my biggest role model is my mom. She has a very big heart and always tries to spread happiness and love wherever she goes. No matter what she always has a positive attitude and stays strong! Her wisdom and love for me plays a huge part in how I approach life and I believe this has opened lots of opportunities for me such as portraying my favourite Disney character Aladdin. 3. Taking us back to your first skating show, can you describe the emotions and thoughts you had during that experience that sparked your passion for the sport? Nelson Sanchez: I’ve always known my love for the sport came from performing and watching the audience enjoy the show, so when I stepped on to the ice for the first time, I immediately felt the energy of the audience, my smile got ten times bigger, and it felt like I found my purpose. I remember calling my mom on FaceTime after my first performance, and with happy tears in my eyes I told her how grateful I was for all the money and time she had invested in my skating career because it all led up to that moment. 4. Aladdin is an iconic character loved by many. How does it feel to portray such a beloved character on the Disney On Ice stage, and what challenges and joys come with the role? Nelson Sanchez: I try to always bring my best to the ice and bring special moments to families all over the world. Being a Disney On Ice skater is very rewarding even with the challenge of being away from my family. I am very family oriented and sometimes get home sick; however, I know my family is proud of me. They know that I am doing what I love, which also makes them happy! I’m very grateful we live in a time where it’s easy to stay connected. 5. As a cast member of Disney On Ice, you contribute to creating magical moments for families. Can you share a memorable experience or interaction with the audience that stood out to you? Nelson Sanchez: As a Disney On Ice performer I have had the opportunity to portray other memorable characters including Woody from Toy Story. There was one particular show where I portrayed Woody and during the show I happen to look out into the audience and see a little boy dressed as Woody in a wheelchair. I remember getting off the ice and giving him a hug and his whole face lit up. As I turned away I caught a glimpse his mom with tears in her eyes. After the show the little boy’s mother contacted Disney On Ice to express her gratitude and share that the little boy was very sick. She said she had never seen him so happy, filled with joy, and the moment is a memory their family will never forget. Memories like these remind me just how important my job is. Disney magic can truly impact lives in a beautiful way and I’m lucky enough to share it with audiences all around the world. 6. When your parents watched you perform on Disney On Ice for the first time, what were the emotions and reactions you observed from them, and how did that moment impact you?

This idea depends on how well and widely renewable energy sources are developed and used. Renewable energy is a bright light that shows the way to a safer, cleaner, and healthier future for future generations. Challenges of Fossil Fuels We can't say enough about how important green energy is for our children's future. Fossil fuels, the main energy source for decades, have not only hurt the earth but also caused climate change. The health of our world, ecosystems, and biodiversity are all at risk when we depend on limited resources. The Promise of Renewable Energy On the other hand, renewable energy is a strong way to deal with these problems. A more environmentally friendly option is to get energy from sunshine, wind, water, and geothermal heat. Unlike fossil fuels, alternative energy sources don't run out. They also cut greenhouse gas emissions by a lot, which lessens the effects of climate change. Benefits Beyond Environment Making the switch to green energy not only helps the environment but also gives our kids a lot of new options. Investing in clean energy solutions leads to new ideas and many renewable energy careers. From research and engineering to production and installation, the renewable energy sector creates many new skilled jobs that help the economy grow and stay strong. Using renewable energy also helps with energy security and freedom. Countries can be less vulnerable to geopolitical conflicts and market changes by using a wider range of energy sources and importing fewer fuels. This ensures that future generations have a more stable and safe energy source. Education as Empowerment A big part of making sure that green energy is used successfully is education. Teaching our kids about eco-friendly methods and renewable technologies gives them the tools they need to become leaders and creators in the field. We can get the next generation excited about clean energy options and push for more progress by teaching about renewable energy in schools and encouraging hands-on activities. The Role of Policies and Initiatives The world is also moving toward a future with renewable energy thanks to government policies and global efforts. Subsidies, incentives, and rules that make it easier to use green energy sources attract investment and speed the move away from fossil fuels. This helps in Singapore job hiring and protects the environment for future generations. Bottom Line The renewable energy industry is a key part of making sure our children have a bright future. It's important for more than just the environment; it's also important for economic growth, job creation, energy security, and keeping our world healthy. When we use renewable energy sources and promote a culture of sustainability, we create a world where our children can grow in a clean, healthy, and long-lasting setting. Let's start this journey toward a better tomorrow so future generations can see this as a time of growth and care. --- - Published: 2024-01-11 - Modified: 2024-01-11 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/skyline-luge-singapore-introduces-ride-the-beat-a-new-night-time-musical-extravaganza-with-captivating-music-and-dazzling-illuminated-tracks/ - Categories: EVENTS - Tags: Skyline Luge Singapore Night owls, music lovers and thrillseekers, this one’s for you!

As the co-founder and Public Relations/Social Media Director of éclat PR Media, Joselyn's journey has been marked by triumph over severe depression and the societal stigmas surrounding mental health. In 2017, Joselyn Tan embarked on a challenging journey, during which she was diagnosed with severe depression, leading to a two-and-a-half-year hiatus in her career. However, Joselyn was determined to move forward and overcome this obstacle, leading her to take up the SGUS social media marketing program with the Social Media Academy. This decision allowed her to rebuild her life and eventually co-found éclat PR Media. As the co-founder of éclat PR Media, Joselyn chose an unexpected path by participating in a beauty pageant. Despite her struggles with clinical depression, she realised that her story should not be seen as a flaw but rather as an inspiration to others. Her journey aims to break the stigma surrounding mental health and create a safer space for everyone. Our editorial team had the opportunity to interview Joselyn Tan, where she shared her journey from battling severe depression to establishing éclat PR Media and joining the World Madam 2023 pageant. In our conversation, she expressed her commitment to breaking societal stigmas around mental health, emphasising the strength that emerges from vulnerability. By sharing her stories, she hopes to inspire and educate women who are facing the same struggle with severe depression, letting them know that there is a supportive community for them to share their mental challenges, and that mental health is the cornerstone for overall well-being. Read on to find out more. Exclusive Interview with Joselyn Tan, Co-Founder and Public Relations/Social Media Director of éclat PR Media 1. Can you share more about the turning point that led you to seek professional help for your mental health and how that decision impacted your life and career? Joselyn Tan: In 2017, my life took an unexpected and distressing turn, leading me to confront a dark abyss of emotions. The vibrancy that once colored my world faded away, replaced by prolonged periods of deep sleep, persistent thoughts of self-harm, and an overwhelming sense of hopelessness. It was as if a dense cloud of depression had settled over my every thought and action, casting a shadow on everything I once enjoyed. Despite the concern from my husband, who initially hoped it was a passing phase, it became increasingly clear that this was more than a temporary struggle. After enduring three months of emotional turmoil, I made the pivotal decision to seek professional help. This choice brought me to Professor Lee, a psychiatrist who would play a crucial role in my mental health journey. His diagnosis of clinical depression was not just a clinical label; it was a profound revelation that marked a turning point in my life. Faced with the gravity of my mental health, I decided to put my career on hold, navigating uncharted territory as an entrepreneur forced to confront the intricacies of mental well-being. This marked the beginning of a tumultuous yet transformative odyssey through the landscape of my own mind. Some days brought a semblance of normalcy, while others were marred by the weight of my struggles. Seeking help became my lifeline, providing me with the necessary tools to navigate the intricate maze of emotions that had come to define my daily existence. In this journey, I discovered resilience I never knew I possessed, and through the guidance of mental health professionals, I gradually pieced together the fragments of my life that had been shattered by the grip of depression. 2. As a mother of three and a successful professional in the PR and Marketing industry, how did the support from your family, especially your husband and sons react to your diagnosis of severe depression, and how did their support contribute to your recovery? Joselyn Tan: Thankfully, it wasn’t difficult to share my condition with my family. When I got hit with the news of severe depression, I was lucky to have a family that's pretty open about everything. I found support and solace in my family during difficult times especially my husband. He plays a significant role, offering understanding and patience, especially the frequent holiday travels. Surprisingly, those travels turned out to be a breath of fresh air for my well-being. I decided to pick up the piano again, something I'd left behind at Grade 5. Bought a keyboard, enrolled in a music school – it's been a therapeutic journey. It's amazing how these little things, the support from your loved ones, and a bit of music can bring light to the darkest moments. So, as I reflect on this journey, I'm reminded that it's not just about weathering the storm; it's about finding solace and strength in unexpected places. In the embrace of family, the patience of a spouse, and the healing power of music, I discovered a resilience I never knew I possessed. It's a testament to the transformative influence that love and understanding can have on one's journey to recovery. 3. In your experience, how has the stigma around mental health affected your personal and professional life, and what steps do you think individuals and society can take to reduce this stigma? Joselyn Tan: You know, when I was encouraged to join Mrs Singapore World 2022, then World Madam 2023, and now representing Singapore in Mrs Asia Pacific as Mrs Singapore Asia Pacific Cosmopolitan 2023, I saw it as a chance to shift the narrative. I wanted to share my journey, not just for me but for all the women out there grappling with similar struggles. Mental health, especially depression, carries this weight of stigma that often keeps us from talking about it openly. Families, friends, even colleagues, it's like this unspoken topic. But this platform, these beauty pageants, they're more than just crowns and titles. They're a way for women to lift each other up, be real role models, where my mental... --- - Published: 2024-01-04 - Modified: 2024-01-04 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/enjoy-1-for-1-halal-buffet-at-permata-singapore-featuring-legendary-dishes-from-singapore-indonesia-malaysia/ - Categories: DINING - Tags: Chef Mel Dean, Halal Buffet, Permata Singapore Singapore's culinary scene is a melting pot of diverse flavours, and when it comes to indulging in a rich tapestry of legendary dishes from Singapore, Indonesia, and Malaysia, Permata Singapore at Gedung Kuning in Bugis stands out as a regal dining destination.

The events hosted at the Singapore Sports Hub this year spanned music genres, sporting and lifestyle interests that catered to a diverse range of patrons and communities. These included: Over 140 National School Games and school sports events held at multiple venues; Over 20,000 hours dedicated to national athletes’ training at various venues across the Singapore Sports Hub; International sport events that were new to this region such as the FIBA Intercontinental Cup which was played in Asia for the first time, and Hyrox’s debut fitness race in Southeast Asia; Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon where participants of the only World Athletics Gold Label race in Southeast Asia finished their race inside the National Stadium; 14th Women's World Floorball Championships (WFC) taking place at the OCBC Arena this December. This will be only the second time that the biennial Women’s WFC is held outside of Europe, with the first also in Singapore in 2005; Sold-out performances by leading International and Asian artistes with Jacky Cheung 60+ Concert Tour setting a record for the most number of shows by an artiste in a single leg of a concert tour in Singapore; and Festive celebrations and grassroots events that strengthened community bonds. Over 200,000 participants attended our Chinese New Year, Hari Raya, Deepavali, Racial Harmony Day and National Day celebrations. Celebrating KASM First Anniversary This December marks the first anniversary of the handover of the Singapore Sports Hub and KASM is celebrating the occasion with the community with a festive light-up and three-weekends of fun-filled activities at the Singapore Sports Hub. Hub partners and the community witnessed the festive light-up officiated by Minister for Culture, Community and Youth & Second Minister for Law, Edwin Tong. “It is wonderful to see the progressive transformation that has taken place at the Singapore Sports Hub over the past year. We have introduced various offerings and programming as we work towards establishing the Sports Hub as a community icon that Singaporeans can identify with and be a part of. Singaporeans and visitors can look forward to even more in 2024, with the opening of the Kallang Football and Tennis Hubs, a stellar line-up of artistes scheduled to perform, new retail and lifestyle offerings, and more sport and community activities for all to enjoy,” said Minister Edwin Tong. “KASM’s first anniversary marks a year of achievements and the beginning of a legacy. From inception, we have focused on two fronts. First, integrating the team and building a culture of excellence and resilience. Second, investing in and raising the bar in sports and entertainment programming for the Kallang Alive precinct and Singapore,” said Keith Magnus, Chairman, KASM. “By actively engaging with local partners to bring our communities together throughout the year, and quickly establishing relationships and partnerships with industry players in the sports and entertainment world both regionally and globally, we have curated a calendar of world-class events that we hope our patrons will enjoy. “In the year ahead, we will continue to see a wide spectrum of community and school events, and we will be welcoming international artistes the likes of Mayday, Enhypen, Coldplay, Ed Sheeran and Taylor Swift, and sporting events and family entertainment including Singapore Smash, Disney on Ice, FIBA 3x3 Asia Cup and HSBC SVNS Singapore. We expect to draw close to 1 million visitors to the Singapore Sports Hub based on these events alone. These events are testimony to Singapore’s position as a leading destination for live sports and entertainment in Asia,” added Mr Magnus. “As we celebrate our first anniversary, we reaffirm our commitment to excellence, inclusivity and the transformative power of sports and entertainment to our community and economy. ” Over the coming three weekends, the public can join in fun Christmas activities including festive games like Peppermint Pool and Candy Cane Hockey and enjoy live performances. There will also be special appearances by Santa Claus and Santarina for that picture perfect round up of this joyous season. Exciting events and experiences in 2024 2024 promises no less variety with highly anticipated sporting events such as the newly revamped HSBC SVNS Singapore, FIBA 3x3 Asia Cup and FIBA Intercontinental Cup. In entertainment, the Sports Hub will continue to welcome leading International and Asian artistes including Mayday, Coldplay, Taylor Swift, and their fans from around the region. Hosting Taylor Swift’s “The Eras Tour” is a significant milestone for the Singapore Sports Hub as Singapore’s National Stadium will be the only venue in Asia outside of Japan that Taylor Swift will be performing at. Close to 300,000 fans from Singapore and Asia are expected to attend the concerts held inside the National Stadium. With technology investments and infrastructure developments within the Kallang Alive precinct such as the Kallang Football and Tennis Hubs which are due to be completed at the end of 2023, there will be more opportunities for a greater array of sporting events alongside community programming and new retail and lifestyle experiences for all at the Singapore Sports Hub.

This is particularly true when it comes to maintaining the health of your bones, which form the framework that supports the body, protects vital organs, and enables movement. Indeed, despite their perceived rigidity, bones are susceptible to damage and degeneration, especially as you age. This dichotomy of strength and vulnerability emphasises the importance of proactive bone health management. As individuals grow older, their bones undergo various changes. In particular, the bones slowly lose their density, which makes them more prone to fractures and osteoporosis. This condition weakens bones, making them more fragile and likely to break. Simply put, understanding the dynamic nature of bone health is crucial in developing strategies to maintain and enhance it to ensure longevity and a higher quality of life even as years pass. Here are some ways you can maintain or improve your bone health: Consult a Specialist for Medication Review Many older adults experience health conditions that necessitate taking a variety of medication. However, you should know that certain medications can have adverse effects on bone health. Hence, it is important for individuals, especially those on long-term treatment regimens, to regularly consult a reliable healthcare professional for a medical review. For bone-related concerns, you should approach an orthopaedic doctor. A medical assessment from such a specialist can help identify any drugs contributing to bone weakening or loss. They can then offer alternatives or suggest measures to mitigate these effects. This proactive approach ensures that your medications support rather than compromise bone health. Engage in Regular Exercise Physical activity is one of the simplest and most effective ways to improve bone health. Weight-bearing exercises, such as walking, jogging, and stair climbing, as well as muscle-strengthening activities, like weight training, are particularly beneficial for the bones and joints. As a bonus, regular exercise also enhances muscle strength, coordination, and balance, which are crucial for preventing falls and related injuries. The key is to choose exercises tailored to your fitness level and health conditions. As you grow older, you'll reap the positive effects of regular physical activity on your bone health, such as improved bone density, better mobility and balance, as well as a reduced risk of osteoporosis and fractures. Maintain a Calcium-Rich Diet Calcium is the most important nutrient for building and maintaining strong bones. For adults, it’s recommended to consume mixed calcium-rich foods such as dairy products, leafy green vegetables, and fish with soft bones like sardines and salmon. There are also calcium-fortified beverages that can contribute significantly to your daily calcium requirement. This diversity in calcium sources ensures you can meet your nutritional needs, regardless of dietary preferences or restrictions. Consume Nutritional Supplements When Necessary In most instances, diet alone may not be sufficient to meet the nutritional needs for optimal bone health. As such, calcium and vitamin D supplements are often recommended to individuals who require more essential nutrients to maintain strong bones and prevent bone-related conditions. However, consulting with a healthcare professional is necessary before starting any supplements. Your physician or orthopaedic specialist can provide guidance on the appropriate types and amounts of supplements, based on individual health and dietary assessments. Note that supplements should be seen as an adjunct to and not a replacement for a nutritious diet. Avoid Smoking and Limit Alcohol Consumption Smoking and excessive alcohol intake have been proven to have detrimental effects on bone health. Smoking can interfere with the body's ability to absorb calcium, decreasing bone mass and increasing the risk of fractures. Similarly, excessive alcohol consumption can lead to bone loss. It is advised for individuals to quit smoking immediately or seek help to do so; one should also limit alcohol intake to moderate levels as defined by health guidelines. These lifestyle changes benefit bone health as well as contribute to overall physical well-being. Avoid Certain Foods and Beverages Some foods and beverages can have a negative impact on bone health. For example, coffee and soft drinks, particularly those containing phosphoric acid, can interfere with calcium absorption. Similarly, a diet high in salt can increase calcium excretion through the kidneys. Note that these foods and beverages are not prohibited; rather, it's best to consume them in moderation. Maintain a Healthy Body Weight Bone health is also significantly affected by body weight. Being underweight can increase the risk of bone loss and fractures, whereas obesity can put extra stress on the bones. Achieving and maintaining a healthy body weight through a balanced diet and regular exercise is vital for bone health. You may consult healthcare professionals for personalised advice, especially if you have underlying health conditions. Minimise Fall Risks to Protect Bones As you age, the risk of falls and related fractures increases. Minimising these risks can help keep your bones healthy and strong. This can involve changing the living environment, such as removing trip hazards, improving lighting, and installing grab bars in strategic locations at home. You can also engage in exercises to enhance balance and coordination. If you experience issues with mobility, you can opt for assistive devices to ensure your safety and stability. Healthy Bones, Healthy Ageing Maintaining bone health is a holistic approach that includes a nutritious diet, regular physical activity, and lifestyle modifications. Understanding and addressing the unique needs of your bones through various stages of life can significantly contribute to overall well-being and quality of life. Ultimately, maintaining healthy bones is ongoing and requires consistent effort and awareness. By adopting these practices, you can improve your bone health and pave the way for a more active and fulfilling life in your later years. --- - Published: 2023-11-30 - Modified: 2023-11-30 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/feel-good-and-celebrate-the-festive-season-with-the-new-subway-cheesy-garlic-series-and-lower-sugar-choc-chip-mint-cookie/ - Categories: DINING - Tags: Subway Experience the early joys of Christmas at Subway® Singapore!

The new book, Sport in Singapore: Visions for Change, is the final edition of the book-trilogy and highlights the history of Singapore sport through the lens of former Chairmen and Chief Executive Officers who were instrumental in guiding and operationalising the vision of sport in Singapore. Complementing the book, the exhibition illustrates Singapore’s sporting journey and the transformation of local sport through preserved print magazine covers and publications collected over the years. Sport in Singapore: Visions for Change is by Dr Nick Aplin, Sport Singapore’s Deputy Director of Sport Heritage and sport historian. This third book is preceded by Sport In Singapore: The Colonial Legacy (2019) and Sport in Singapore: The Rocky Road To Kallang Park (2023). The book is featured as a giant, life-size book installation and will be available alongside the exhibition at The Plaza, National Library Building. The exhibition includes panel installations that pay homage to significant sporting milestones from the past five decades, such as the country’s first Olympic medal in 1960 and the opening of the National Stadium back in 1973. In collaboration with the National Heritage Board, the exhibition will also display two valuable copies of The Sportsman Magazine, reproduced from originals housed in the National Museum of Singapore. Mr Tharman Shanmugaratnam, President of Singapore, was the Guest-of-Honour at the launch event, held at the National Library Building on 25 November. Mr Edwin Tong, Minister for Culture, Community and Youth and Second Minister for Law, together with senior representatives from Sport Singapore, National Library Board and National Heritage Board, were also present at the event. During a guided walkthrough of the exhibition, former champions such as P. C. Suppiah, James Wong and father-son duo Wong Shoon Keat and Derek Wong, shared their unique experiences in advancing their chosen sport with the invited guests and brought the exhibition panels made up of 320 magazine covers to life. Each magazine cover was specially selected to capture the zeitgeist of the local sporting scene from the 1970s to current times, providing visitors with a time capsule experience to the different eras of Singapore’s diverse sporting landscape over the past five decades. Current TeamSG athletes such as Michelle Sng, national record holder in women’s high jump; Eric Yee, TeamSG discus thrower; Maisarah Mohamed Hassan, TeamSG para-athlete and current badminton national team members Ryan Tan Rui Yang and Johann Prajogo were also present to share their sporting journeys. A special feature of the exhibition is the digital and interactive display of The Sportsman magazines, first published in 1930 by Singapore’s first President Mr Yusof Ishak and his two friends Ong Chin Beng and Soh Swee Tuck. A scholar, sportsman and journalist, Mr Yusof Ishak provided readers in the 1930s a captivating view of the sporting culture in the Straits in the 1930s. Mr Yusof Ishak relinquished his publishing role after three years, but the magazine continued its run for ten years. It was an official publication of weightlifting in Malaya, with supplements on sports such as athletics, badminton, boxing, football, golf, hockey and lawn tennis. The rare pictorials are presented for the first time in a collaboration between the National Heritage Board and Sport Singapore. The exhibition will be held from 25 November 2023 to 10 January 2024 at The Plaza, National Library Building, and is open to all members of the public.

For parents who rely on mobility aids, the journey may come with a unique set of obstacles. However, with the right strategies and mindset, parenthood can be just as fulfilling and enriching. Create an Accessible Home Environment: The foundation of effective parenting for those using mobility aids lies in creating an accessible living space. Consider making modifications to your home to accommodate your mobility device. Install ramps, widen doorways, and remove tripping hazards. A stairlift can be a game-changer, providing a seamless transition between different levels of your home. Build a Support System: Parenting is a collaborative effort, and having a robust support system is crucial. Reach out to friends, family, and neighbours who can offer assistance when needed. Communicate openly about your needs and how others can support you. A strong support network can make a significant difference in navigating the challenges of parenthood with a mobility aid. Don’t Neglect Self-Care: Parenting can be demanding, and it's essential to prioritise self-care, especially for those relying on mobility aids. Take breaks when needed, get enough rest, and engage in activities that bring you joy and relaxation. Remember, taking care of yourself enables you to better care for your children. Adapt Everyday Activities: Parenting often involves a myriad of daily activities. Explore adaptive techniques and tools to make these tasks more manageable. For instance, use a stroller with large wheels that can easily manoeuvre over various terrains, or consider baby carriers that distribute weight evenly to ease the strain on your body. Embrace Technology: In the age of technology, there are numerous apps and devices designed to make parenting more accessible. From parenting apps that offer helpful tips and advice to smart home devices that can be controlled with your voice, technology can be a valuable ally in simplifying daily tasks. Plan Ahead: Planning is key when you rely on mobility aids. Anticipate potential challenges and have contingency plans in place. Whether it's planning your route for a family outing or having a well-stocked diaper bag, a little preparation can go a long way in ensuring smooth and stress-free parenting experiences. Educate Your Child about Your Mobility Aid: Children are naturally curious, and it's important to foster open communication about your mobility aid. Explain its purpose and how it helps you move around. Encourage your child to ask questions and involve them in age-appropriate discussions about disabilities and diversity. Seek Professional Advice: Consulting with healthcare professionals, such as physical therapists or occupational therapists, can provide valuable insights into parenting with mobility aids. They can offer tailored advice on body mechanics, exercises, and strategies to minimise strain and enhance your overall well-being. Join a Support Group: Connecting with other parents facing similar challenges can be incredibly empowering. Joining a support group for parents who rely on mobility aids allows you to share experiences, exchange tips, and build a sense of community. Online forums and local community groups can be excellent resources for finding support. Celebrate Achievements: Parenthood is a series of small victories and milestones. Celebrate your achievements, no matter how seemingly insignificant. Recognize the resilience and strength it takes to navigate parenting with a mobility aid, and take pride in the positive impact you are making in your child's life. --- - Published: 2023-11-24 - Modified: 2023-11-24 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/wild-rices-snow-white-the-seven-dwarfs-a-magical-blend-of-comedy-and-heartwarming-show-great-for-all-ages/ - Categories: ENTERTAINMENT - Tags: Wild Rice's Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs Wild Rice has once again graced the stage with its annual holiday tradition, presenting Alfian Sa’at’s "Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs" that is great for entertaining the whole family and suitable for all ages.

Her subjects, upon reaching the age of 18, are subjected to an "Enhancement" program to correct their flaws. One day, the Queen's Magic Mirror, who cannot lie without literally cracking up, reveals to her that a new beauty has come of age – her own step-daughter, Snow White. Seething with jealousy, the Queen orders the girl to undergo a nip-tuck by the creepy Royal Surgeon. To save her own skin, Snow White decides to escape to the Outer Limits, a place filled with misfits and outcasts, including the rapping, breakdancing Seven Dwarfs. The satirical script by Alfian Sa’at, coupled with catchy original music by Elaine Chan, creates an atmosphere of joy and laughter throughout the show.

For many Singaporean students, Junior College (JC) A Levels represents a critical step toward their academic journey. However, as students prepare for this milestone, they often grapple with the question: Is tuition still necessary at the JC A Level in Singapore? With a well-developed education system and abundant resources, is tuition truly warranted? In this article, we will explore the factors that lead students to seek tuition, the potential advantages and disadvantages, and whether it remains an essential component at the A Levels . The Educational Landscape in Singapore Singapore's commitment to education is evident in its well-structured educational framework. At JC A Level, students typically benefit from highly qualified teachers, comprehensive study materials, and a meticulously designed curriculum. The Ministry of Education (MOE) has made substantial investments to ensure that students receive a high-quality education that equips them for A Level examinations. However, despite these extensive resources, many students and parents opt for tuition outside of regular school hours. This raises questions: Why do students turn to tuition, and is it genuinely necessary? Competition and Pressure Intense competition and academic pressure are among the primary factors driving students toward tuition in Singapore. A Levels play a pivotal role in determining university admissions and future career prospects. Consequently, students and their parents often believe that seeking tuition can provide a competitive edge. Tuition centres and private tutors frequently market themselves as solutions to this academic pressure. They promise personalized attention and additional practice, which can boost a student's confidence and performance. “Most of the students that attend our classes are trying to secure the A grades so that they can effectively compete for admissions into the top universities and courses,” says Mr. Kelvin Hong, Chief Tutor at both The Economics Tutor, an IB and JC economics tuition centre as well as Ace GP Tuition, a General Paper tuition outfit. The intense competition for university admissions, especially in highly sought-after courses like Law, Medicine, Computer Science, and Business, is certainly a very significant motivating factor that often leads students to seek tuition. Given the fierce competition for admission into these coveted courses, students often turn to tuition as a means to enhance their chances of success. It is no wonder why the Ministry of Education has tweaked the university admission A Level scoring system to reduce the stress and pressure with changes in effect from 2026 onwards. Nonetheless, competition will remain stiff and thus the demand for tuition is likely to remain high. Reinforcement of Concepts Despite the dedication of JC teachers, some students may struggle with specific subjects or concepts. Tuition can offer additional support by providing alternative explanations, extra practice, and a fresh perspective on challenging topics. For students grappling with certain subjects, this reinforcement proves invaluable. It must be remembered that the JC years are a very short two years that whizz past very quickly and students are expected to master at least 6 subjects, handle Project Work and do well for Co-Curricular Activities as well. With so much at stake, it is no wonder why JC tutors are hot in demand. Customized Learning Tuition facilitates personalized and tailored learning experiences. Private tutors can adapt their teaching methods to align with a student's learning style and pace, a challenge often encountered in crowded classrooms. This individualized attention helps students grasp difficult concepts more effectively. Exam Preparation Singapore's A Level examinations are renowned for their difficulty, increasing the pressure to perform well. Tuition providers frequently offer specialized courses and exam preparation strategies that focus on the specific demands of the A Level syllabus. Such support can be particularly helpful in navigating the intricacies of these examinations and achieving desired results. The personalized attention and additional practice contribute to a greater sense of readiness and capability, reducing anxiety and Drawbacks of Tuition Cost One of the most significant drawbacks of tuition is the financial burden it imposes. Private tutors and tuition centers can be costly, adding to the already substantial expenses of A Level education. Time Commitment Tuition sessions demand additional time beyond regular school hours. This can lead to busy, exhausting schedules for students, leaving them with limited time for extracurricular activities or relaxation. Over-reliance Over-reliance on tuition is another concern. Some students may become excessively dependent on external support, neglecting their own independent study and problem-solving skills. This overreliance can hinder their ability to think critically and learn autonomously. Is Tuition Still Necessary? The necessity of tuition at the JC A Level level in Singapore is a multifaceted question. While tuition can offer several benefits, it is not universally required or suitable for every student. Several factors should be considered: - Student's Needs The necessity of tuition varies from student to student, subject to subject. Some may genuinely benefit from the extra support and individualized attention that tuition provides, while others may excel without it. Parents and students should assess their unique needs and circumstances. - Quality of School Education The quality of education provided by the JC itself plays a pivotal role. Some JCs boast highly qualified teachers, robust support systems, and comprehensive resources, which can reduce the need for external tuition. In such cases, students may find that school alone suffices to meet their academic goals. - Balance and Well-being The overall well-being of students should also be a consideration. An overly packed schedule comprising school, tuition, and other commitments can lead to burnout and stress. Striking a healthy balance between academic pursuits and personal life is crucial for long-term success and happiness. - Cost-Benefit Analysis Parents and students must conduct a cost-benefit analysis. Tuition can be expensive, and it is imperative to assess whether the potential benefits, such as improved Conclusion The question of whether tuition is still necessary at the JC A Level level in Singapore is multifaceted. While tuition can offer numerous advantages, its necessity varies from student to student and is influenced by factors such... --- - Published: 2023-11-23 - Modified: 2023-11-26 - URL: https://www.ourparentingworld.com/mitas-babyshow-2023-a-curation-of-trusted-brands-quality-products-expert-insights-and-attractive-deals/ - Categories: EVENTS, PARENTING/EDUCATION - Tags: MITAS BabyShow Get ready for the ultimate curated baby fair for maternity, infant and toddler products and services in Singapore!

Cloversoft, established in 2014, is not just a brand; it's a commitment to toxin-free and eco-friendly daily consumables for sustainable living, accessible to all. Angela Sim and Lynn Yeo, the co-founders, believe that luxury should transcend price tags and focus on quality, efficiency, and enduring benefits. At the heart of Cloversoft's mission is a dedication to environmental conservation. All their products, made from high-quality bamboo, are unbleached and free from harmful chemicals. Their products have also been tested to be biodegradable within 90 days, which allows a reduction of waste in landfills.

Cloversoft is also an official partner of Polar Bears International, donating part of its proceeds to save these endangered creatures. Angela and Lynn understand that luxury is an experience, and they've translated this philosophy into their 4-in-1 plant-based laundry pods. Unlike traditional detergents laden with harmful chemicals, Cloversoft's pods are crafted from 100% natural ingredients. But they don't stop there: Sensory Cleaning Experience: Cloversoft's laundry pods incorporate natural essential oils like eucalyptus, rose, and cedarwood, ensuring not only a safer cleaning experience but a gratifying one as well.

Imagine as you fumble through your wallet at the mama shop, you discover you are left with only 30 cents. Standing before you, a choice presents itself – Ice Pops laden with added sugar, artificial colouring, and flavouring, or the alternative, a Banana treat infused with natural sugar and devoid of any artificial colouring or flavouring. In this pivotal moment, the allure of the Ice Pops often triumphs over the healthier option, a decision most of us would make without a second thought. In a world where sugar-laden treats often prevail in the battle for taste buds, two brothers in Singapore have embarked on a mission to reshape one of our childhood favourites – the iced popsicle. With child obesity on the rise in Singapore, the government has tightened regulations on sugar intake, advocating for healthier alternatives. However, this doesn’t mean the joy of iced popsicles has to be sacrificed. Enter Frozt, a homegrown iced popsicle brand founded by brothers Glen and Terrence Lee. What sets Frozt apart is their commitment to creating popsicles that are not only delicious but also healthier. The secret? Real fruits. Frozt recreates our beloved childhood treat with a fresh and healthy twist, ensuring their popsicles are dairy-free, gluten-free, halal-certified, and boast a reduced sugar content. Frozt offers a tempting variety of 11 flavours, ranging from classic options like orange, mango, strawberry, mixed berries, and grape to more unique choices like peach, coconut, durian, soursop, pineapple, and avocado. With the exception of grape and durian flavours, all Frozt popsicles have received the Healthier Choice Logo from the Health Promotion Board (HPB). Frozt is currently available at 200 retail points islandwide. From a tiny shop in Kovan to becoming a household name in Singapore, the journey wasn't without challenges. Co-founders and brothers Glen and Terrence Lee faced numerous failed trials before finding success, drawing inspiration from their shared childhood love of frozen treats. Frozt’s success is a testament to the teamwork of the two brothers. Terrence, driven by his passion for culinary arts, made the bold decision to forgo an NTU degree, gaining expertise in food manufacturing and operations to set the stage for Frozt. Meanwhile, Glen's management and marketing skills were instrumental in elevating the brand’s visibility and overall success. The best part of their success story? The duo is paying it forward by teaching young ones to follow suit. Frozt has partnered with schools such as Mayflower Secondary School and Saint Anthony’s Canossian Secondary, organising workshops that not only encourage healthy eating but also introduce students to entrepreneurial know-how. This initiative aligns with the government's increasing efforts for healthier eating programs in schools. (Above: A close-up of Frozt’s Popsicle Robot, Frozt’s team and the Popsicle Robots) To keep up with the surging demand, Frozt has innovated its operational solutions, introducing the Popsicle Robot. This robot can carry between 200 to 300 popsicle sticks, solving logistical challenges and making it easier for staff to serve customers at large events. Frozt's success story doesn't end at Singapore. With the support of Enterprise Singapore, they have ventured into exporting their popsicles to Vietnam and are planning an international expansion to Taiwan, South Korea, and Australia by 2024. As the brothers continue to answer Singapore's call to battle sugar with their healthier iced popsicles, Frozt is not just a brand; it's a testament to passion, perseverance, and a commitment to a healthier, tastier future.
