The Place To Visit This School Holiday: EXplorerkid Indoor Playground

5-year-old Rayner can’t wait. He dashes in and his younger brother follows behind.

Even after an hour of zooming around, climbing obstacle courses, and jumping into ball pits, it was still tough to keep up with this energizer bunny.

Brightly lit and furnished, the colourful space at eXplorerkid is inviting to any child below 12 years old.

We find out what makes this indoor playground in Singapore so appealing and inviting.

Mega Play

Adventure Highlands

Besides building their gross and fine motor skills, kids can get a taste of what’s it like to go through a mini obstacle course at Adventure Highlands. This is a great opportunity to mold mental resilience, especially for kids with a fear of height.

The Downtown East outlet has a two-tier rope element obstacle course with safety equipment. The course is suitable for kids of all ages, but only those above the height of 110 cm are allowed on the higher tiered level.

Kinetic Sand Play

Need some quiet playtime? Head over to the sand area. The special kinetic sand looks and moves like wet sand, but is dry to touch. Sensory activities such as sand play are particularly important for young children because it is how they explore and learn about the world around them. Sensory activities are also crucial for a child’s brain development.
