28th SEA Games Carnival

[ Advertorial ]

To encourage more families to enjoy sports, the 28th SEA Games Carnival will provide fun activities and creative sports try-out for everyone from 31 May – 16 June.

We popped by the Singapore SportsHub last Sat and Sun, as one day is not enough 🙂

We are confident families will enjoy Sea Games Carnival as much as us. Here is our kids’ list of their favourite activities :
– NineBot
– Laser Tag
– Zorb Bowling

Ninebot was Fun, after we got our balance. Kids seem to master Ninebot faster than adults. Expect long queue as Ninebot is addictive.

Laser Tag is not only for boys, just ask Boon Xin. Although she could not aim straight, our girl had fun running the course and sometimes shooting her own “team mates” 🙂

Kids are serious about eliminating their enemies!

Human guinea pig, or is it Human washing machine? Either way, Zorb Bowling is super Fun!

Just roll inside the Zorb and push the pins down. Losing your balance and somersaulting within is part of the Fun. Laughter (from participants and parents) guaranteed!

Another event which amused parents Dads would be boxing. Boon Yee eagerly waiting to enter the ring.

During rest times, kids can indulge in some cosmetic and tattoo fun, or simply draw their own SEA Games Torch.

Bouncing castle, Giant Slide (10m tall!), and Flying Dunk (the hoop is only 5m tall!),
there is something for everyone.

Keep walking on (corn-starched) water, or you will sink. Kids needed no excuse to get their toes wet.
Walk on Water

Perhaps, some might prefer sprinting?

From 9 to 12 June, send your boys and girls to do the 80-metre dash at the National Stadium Promenade where the fastest runner of the day wins a prize! 🙂

Yes Boon Wee! He climbed all the way up, even though he kept saying he wish to give up. Perseverance pays off, and he is rewarded with extra doses of confidence.
