This school holidays, families can look forward to a new attraction right here in Singapore. Spanning 4,600 square metres, the upcoming Curiosity Cove at Mandai Wildlife Reserve has been dubbed "Singapore's largest indoor nature-inspired playscape designed for children aged three to 12".
When it opens to the public on Nov 21, visitors can look forward to four nature-themed zones inspired by real-world ecosystems: Wetlands, Forestlands, Grasslands and Drylands. Each zone features interactive elements – both physical and digital.
Wetlands, for instance, teaches children how water connects ecosystems and supports all living things. Located within the zone is Reef Retreat, which lets visitors feel their way around a reef.
Over at Forestlands, children can climb into the tree-top leaf nests at the Orangutan Sleeping Platform or shake the hanging lianas at the Singing Tree and listen to the sounds of the rainforest.
In the Grasslands, visitors can learn how animals camouflage themselves in the savannah with areas like Watering Hole and Nature’s Theatre Cave.
