Paw Patrol at One Holland Village

We brought the kids to One Holland Village for the Paw Patrol event. To be honest, I was quite disappointed because the area was pretty small. We didn't get the tickets for the meet-up with the mascots because my children were not too keen in it. But I found the stage for the meet-and-greet tiny too, thought it would have been better without the stage. 

Fortunately, as we didn't pick the meet and greet, our tickets were only S$8 each after discount. Both kids had some fun going through different stations which included colouring, golfing, hop-scotch, magentic tiles building and a tiny bouncy castle. It was mainly just vendors trying to sell their products. But to be fair, the products were things which I would use and the discounts were really good. 

After you complete every station, we will get a goodie bag (worth estimated S$50). The realistic price is probably less than S$8 because most of the items are not very useful. Ended up giving a lot of things away, LOL. Nonetheless, Kids probably viewed fun a lot differently. They both told me it was extremely fun. There was a small booth selling the official toys, not very interesting and also no discount. They should just directly sell the movie tickets there, LOL!

Tickets without mascot meet-and-greets are only for weekday, so you need to take a day off just to bring them out. Fortunately the location is at Holland and there were still quite a lot to see and do around the vicinity. There are quite a bit of changes and Holland just doesn't look the same anymore. Even OHV tenants has become more off-the-mill. Still worth a visit, if your kids love Paw Patrol!

Splashtopia 2026: Ride the Wave of Aloha

Lately the weather is just killing. I am sweating so much and can't live without aircon. When I told the kids Splashtopia is back at Sentosa - Palawan Beach, the kids were celebrating! Something like a combination of swimming fun and bouncy castle, this always bring a smile to the kids. Most importantly, I found their events thoughtful and well-organised. 

Even when the crowd grow, it never gets rowdy with the staff looking out for the little ones. This year, it came back way bigger with eight one-of-a-kind giant bouncy castles and pools with a Hawaiian theme. 

If your children are into mascots, check out the timeslot, as Kiztopia Friends will be making special appearances. There are even mermaids meet-and-greet on specific days which made my daughter extremely happy. Each tickets are sold at 3 hours slots, but by 2 hours in, quite a bit of energy has been burnt. 

Food is sold at a very affordable price and there are always plenty of seats so we don't bother stepping out of their vicinity. Usually the children will gather around1.5hr mark to recharge with their food and water breaks. If your children are still around the baby-stage, I will suggest going during the weekdays as it is less crowded and you would need to join them in the pool. As mine are already toddlers, I can leave them to wander on their own.  

Don't be surprise, but even adults join in sometimes because some slides are incredibly thrilling. I tend to let the children go first. This time round, there are even water gun fights for the older kids! The package price are the best in terms of value. Splashtopia 2026: Ride the Wave of Aloha will be at the Palawan Beach from the June Holidays all the way till 28th June. Sometimes we even go more than once! Ending with a packing list which you can just follow:

• Swimwear
• 1 spare set of clothes
• Sunblock
• Towel
• Shampoo/ Soap (Note that shower facilities are at the beach area)
• Phone to take photos

K!dz Pop Con Asia 2026

Back at K!dz Pop Con Asia again, and this year, the booths were more spread out. I like that it was easier to navigate and had more space to think/ spend. We managed to finish most of the booths within a day, call me crazy, but I prefer to have more things so that I will FOMO. Lol! The bouncy areas were the highlight as usual. The area was as large and the children actually went for 2 session - literally the first and the last thing they did. 

After which, we went round the booths. The kids particularly enjoyed booths with crafts. As this year, it was held slightly before the June Holidays, I was a little bummed that there were not as many enrichment class vendors. I would have loved to get a few discounts and fix up some June Holiday Classes for them. Food was affordable and there was good variety this year. You don't have to step away to fill up your tummies!

This year, our favourite booth had to be Syrena, the mermaid's booth. There was so much to do there - including a balloon bubble, shiny face painting, playing with the gymnastics ribbon. All for free too. Plus the whole booth was very instagrammable. Bluey also made special guest appearances at their booths. More excited than the kids, cos I watch Bluey and they don't really. Haha.  I was a little sad this year My Little Pony didn't set up a booth because I am a huge fan. 

Toy Story 5 had a booth and their activities and free goodies were absolutely the best! We even ended purchasing some tickets to the upcoming movie. KPop Demon Hunters also had a booth just to sell merchandise only. Overall, I thought it was still a great, well-priced event. Maybe I was spoilt by last year (read my review here), I just want more! In any case, we can't wait for their next installment next year!
