Finally, KidZania Singapore opens its doors TODAY!
In case you are unfamiliar with the KidZania concept, just know that this is not your typical theme park. In fact, this indoor facility comes with NO rides or arcade attractions at all!
Instead, kids get to participate in a variety of role-playing activities specifically designed to educate and inspire kids aged 4 to 17, creating a kid-centric city experience from arriving at the airport, to visiting a city centre and exploring the city streets. On top of it all, they get to earn a salary (in the form of kidZos, the official currency of KidZania), pay for goods and services and manage an ATM card - all the things they see adults do in real life!
So yes, KidZania Singapore is THE place where kids ditch their parents and go looking for JOBS! And trust me when I say the kids can never get enough of the job-hopping.
KidZania prides itself in offering the COMPLETE experience to its young visitors - starting right from the moment they step into KidZania Singapore. Upon arrival at the indoor city (Palawan Kidz City situated opposite Port of Lost Wonder), kids and parents will be issued with boarding passes at a counter designed to resemble an airport check-in counter.
In addition, every child and adult will be tagged with a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) security bracelet.
Kids are only allowed to leave the park with an adult if his/her bracelet matches that of the adult who accompanied them. Kids aged 7 and below must be accompanied by a parent/guardian at all times while for kids aged 8 and above, an adult has to "check them in" and leave his personal details.
At the point of entry, all kids will receive 20 kidZos and a bank card with a value of 30 kidZos for a starting total of 50 kidZos. The kidZos function like money within KidZania and can be used to participate in activities, save or spend to purchase items at the Department Store.
The items in the Department Store start from 50 kidZos and the store is out of bounds to parents. After all, the aim is to let the kids take responsibility for their own spending decisions.
In KidZania, kids are given the independence and freedom to manage their finances on their own, either at the bank branch or through the ATMs and iKiosks in the city. They are also able to open a personal savings account at any time during their visit so that they can deposit their hard-earned kidZos. iKIOSKs are located around KidZania for kids to check their bank balances.
The kidZos earned need not be spent in that particular visit. The child is able to save and accumulate more on subsequent visits to KidZania Singapore. In fact, did you know that the kidZos earned in other KidZania worldwide can be deposited into the bank account here too? So if you have kidZos from other KidZanias, bring them down to the bank to exchange them. And yes, the currency exchange rate remains at 1:1.
Internally, KidZania Singapore is spread over 2 levels and built to resemble a city.
The streets are paved and there are establishments that one see in our everyday life - police station, fire station, hospital, bank, petrol station, restaurants.
Personally, I feel KidZania Singapore is a tad more spacious than its Kuala Lumpur counterpart. I think it has to do with the wider streets and higher ceilings.
And so, let's get to the most exciting part of KidZania for the kids - earning money, or kidZos!
This is how it is done in the park:
At every establishment, there will be a sign like the one in the above photo. The signs show information with regard to the job scope, as well as the recommended age group and duration of the activity. It also shows the payout of the job, and in the case of the Museum Curator, the payout is 8 kidZos. Not too bad a salary for 20 minutes of work I reckon.
Each task takes between 20 and 40 minutes to complete.
Not all establishments earn an income though. There are some which offer services, like making a burger, going on a high ropes obstacle course or studying for a degree, and these require a payment instead.
While most of the activities are manageable for kids at least 4 years old, there are a few that require kids to be aged either 6 or 7 due to the nature of the jobs.
Some panels also carry additional information on the left column. These may include certain conditions required for that specific job, like minimum height requirements, advance reading skills, or the need for insurance costs. There are some panels that depict a purple star too, which indicate that parents are welcomed to partake as spectators in that particular establishment.
Or should the child have additional qualifications like a university degree, he or she gets to earn an extra 2 kidZos on top of the usual remuneration!
But here's an important point to note: Parents are NOT allowed inside the job establishment areas at all times, unless otherwise stated.
As for kids, look out for the 'QUEUE STARTS HERE' signage on the floor at each establishment to get started on the job hunt!
And here is the complete list of activities that kids will be able to try out:
ACTIVITIES FOR KIDS AGED 4 AND ABOVE
As a rule of thumb, all of the Research & Development (R&D) nature type of jobs - Health Institute, Ice Cream Factory, Milk Innovation Lab, Science Laboratory and Water Quality Assurance Plant - together with the Aviation Academy are found on Level 2.

The flight simulation facility is specially designed to demonstrate taking off and landing at Qatar Airways home base and hub, Hamad International Airport in Doha and Singapore Changi Airport.
See the life-sized decommissioned Boeing 737 plane? That is where the kids will be having their training as pilots. Besides having the chance to captain the skies, the positions of cabin crew are open to kids too where they will learn how to ensure the safety and comfort of passengers on-board.

TRADITIONAL BBQ MEAT STORE
Position/s available: Traditional BBQ Meat Assistant
This is one occupation that is unique to KidZania Singapore!

And in case you are wondering, NO samples are given.
UNIVERSITY
Position/s available: Undergraduate
The Learning Lab University will be the gateway for children to acquire distinguished academic credentials. There are 3 degrees on offer: Business & Finance, Communication Studies & Biochemical Engineering. Class timings for the various degrees are shown below.
Kids must pay using kidZos to obtain a degree of their choice (Reading skills needed). And once armed with these qualifications, they can earn an extra 2 kidZos on top of the usual remuneration at selected establishments. Just like upgrading oneself in the real world!
WATER QUALITY ASSURANCE PLANT (LEVEL 2)
Position/s available: Water Quality Assurance Specialist & Water Delivery Crew
The Spritzer Bottling Plant offers kids to play the role of a Water Quality Assurance Specialist and learn safety and hygiene matters, testing the purity of the city’s drinking water and ensuring that it is free of bacteria and chemicals. Or they can choose to ensure the smooth delivery of the water all over KidZania city.
WINDOW WASHING
Position/s available: Window Washer
Kids will be able to learn the proper way to clean windows - and perhaps help the parents at home after that.
PHEW! That was a HUGE list of activities and truth be told. there is NO way that a child can finish job-hopping every single one in one, two or even three visits. So while all of the job-related activities in KidZania Singapore have a minimum age requirement of 4 years old, where does that leave toddlers who are 3 years and below of age?
ACTIVITIES FOR KIDS AGED 4 AND BELOW
If you have older kids aged 4 and above who are busying themselves with the activities - and you wish to bring younger kids to KidZania Singapore too, there are 2 exclusive sections on Level 2 that are catered to kids aged 4 and below.
The first one is the RightZKeepers Residence, which is essentially one giant padded indoor playground made to resemble the interior of a house.
There is a Living Room and Kitchen that are filled with toys, and jumping action waiting to be discovered in the Bedroom, where two inflatable beds beckon.
But I think the most fun part of the house has got to be the toilet, where one can go have a dip in the soft balls bathtub!
Situated right beside is the Kindergarten which is stocked with toys and art & craft materials to keep the little ones busy.
Various programmes for toddlers will be conducted throughout the day as well.
Nursing mummies would be glad to know that there is also a Baby Care Centre for private nursing and diaper-changing too.
ACTIVITIES FOR PARENTS
Compared to most KidZanias, KidZania Singapore probably has more than the usual number of activities that parents can partake in as spectators. These include watching their kids strut the runway or showcase their acting chops at the THEATRE, hop on the Tour Bus as a Tourist at the COACH STATION and let the kids role-play as Tour Guides and cheer kiddos on at the STADIUM.
Parents need a moment away from the kids? Head to the PARENTS LOUNGE on Level 2!
This adult-only retreat - yes, NO kids allowed! - provides parents with a place to get away to chill while their kids are slogging away.
The resting corner is furnished with tables, chairs, couches, computer terminals and an F&B kiosk selling snacks and drinks.
DINING OPTIONS
Let's face it, if parents are going to be stuck inside KidZania Singapore while the kids are off to earn some dough, then it really helps that the food and beverage options within the city are palatable enough. And judging from first impressions, there seem to be quite a variety of choices.
The food-related industries within KidZania Singapore - Kentucky Fried Chicken (Level 1), Pizza Hut (Level 2) and The Soup Spoon (Level 1) - also retail actual meals to visitors. In addition, there are 2 further dining options.
Traditional coffeehouse KILLINEY KOPITIAM serves up traditional freshly brewed coffee and kaya toast while visitors can enjoy authentic Indonesian cuisine in the WARUNG M NASIR cafeteria. Both are located on Level 1.
ADDITIONAL SERVICES
In addition to the Department Store, there is a SHOPPING ALLEY which is home to a range of shops that the kids can blow their kidZos on.
On your way out of KidZania Singapore, you will be able to purchase exclusive souvenirs from the KidZania SHOPS (with Singapore currency, not kidZos!).
If you are planning to head back to KidZania again, the child could sign up to be a B-KidZanian and get his or her own PaZZport for a one-time fee of $18. The PaZZport is valid until 18 years old and privileges include earning or saving 2 extra kidZos on every activity the kids complete. The more kidZos earned or saved equate to more activities they can enjoy.
When kids earn 30 stamps, they become Distinguished CitiZens and will earn or save 4 extra KidZos per activity. And when they earn 60 stamps, they'll become Honorable CitiZens of KidZania, earning and saving 6 extra KidZos per activity.
In addition, they get preferential access in KidZania cities that offer the B-KidZanian Programme!
SO... all ready to embark on a KidZanian adventure? Hang on...
Here're 10 tips to maximise your day out at KidZania Singapore!
1. To ensure a pleasant experience in the City, KidZania Singapore has a capacity limit so tickets are on a first come, first served basis. To guarantee entry, book your tickets online beforehand. You may purchase tickets up to two months in advance.
2. Online purchases are entitled to 5% discount off walk-in ticket prices. And if you pay using a Maybank Credit or Debit Card, there is a 10% discount instead.
3. KidZania Singapore is open for 7 hours from Sundays to Thursdays and 10 hours on Fridays, Saturdays, School holidays, eve of and Public Holidays. To maximise your time there, be prepared to stay for the entire day. Re-entry is NOT allowed.
4. Arrive earlier before the opening time of 10am, as there will be a queue waiting to enter.
5. Upon opening, most kids will head to the Bank to deposit their 20 kidZos and to activate the bank card... which translates to long queues at the bank (just like in real life). If the queue at the bank is long, skip it and head straight to the establishments to earn some kidZos first.
6. And avoid going to the bank when it is near closing time. The bank will be swarmed with kids who are either eager to deposit their day's earnings or withdraw their kidZos to spend.
7. Have an early or late lunch. Queues at popular occupations may be relatively shorter come meal times so be sure to take advantage of that.
8. Another trend seen at all theme parks is the crowd usually dwindles near to closing time. This will be a great moment for the kids to earn more kidZos!
9. Getting a degree at the University can help to earn more kidZos, depending on the course and the nature of the job.
10. Realistically, your child will be able to cover about 6 to 8 jobs as a fair amount of time will be spent on queuing. To up the number, parents can scout ahead to ascertain which occupations have a shorter queue. But do note that parents are NOT allowed to queue in place of their kids.
HAVE FUN!

As a SAHM of 4, I really hope to win the tickets to Kidzania Singapore. Been postponing the trip to Kidzania overseas because of my health condition. Really hope that they can win the tickets and get the opportunity to go there. Albeit the outcome, I must thank you for giving us the opportunity

Thank you for your effort in sharing the post and the tips on Kidzania.
This will be a good experiential activity for the children. Children are brought up in this modern era with multiple digital gadgets and economy diversity, Kidzania really provides them hands on activities and increase their knowledge of the different occupation. I do hope that my children will understand the hardwork that goes in behind every single occupation and treasure people from different workforce.
Hope that I can win the contest too :) (Have liked the page too).
Heard so much about kidzania and I wanna bring my kids to experience it themselves.
I would love to have those tickets to bring my son and nieces over during the school holidays. It'd be a great family fun bonding time together!

I love the idea of role playing. As a kid, I always wondered what it would be like to be in the operating theatre, a police officer and even a model. Having entered the workforce, there is no way I would ever be able to gain such experiences. Wished there was KidZania when I was young. I would like my 10 year old brother not to miss this fun-filled and eye opening experience. Not only will KidZania provide him with a better idea of what he would like to grow up to be, he will also be able to appreciate the services provided by different people of the workforce. It is a great way to learn to manage credits and understand the value of money too!
Thank you for the opportunity to win tickets! I would love for my mother and brother to engage in a bonding session through KidZania. Liked and shared on FB.

Thanks for the really useful tips! My kids love visiting kidzania and they are thrilled it is now in Singapore. I've liked and shared!. We hope to win more tickets! :-) perfect birthday treat for them. Thank you!
I have a question -- do toddlers go in for free?
Awesome! Can't believe that you are having a giveaway! Done all steps. Also commented over at FB link. Thanks so much. Hope to be the lucky one!
Thank you for the detailed write-up of Kidzania. Hope to win this to bring my 8-year-old gal to explore different job scopes.
Hope to win this giveaway. Fingers-crossed! Thanks for organizing! :)
It's great that Kidzania is in Singapore. Renown for being educational and an experience for the young ones, the different occupation-themed sections really give the children an opportunity to be exposed to different jobs at a young age. It's like an indoor playground, but much better on the fun factor. Can't wait to bring my 2 children to Kidzania ! Proud to have our very own Singapore version. Bigger and better!
I have been to kids zania in kl and Bangkok, both my kids love it and we would love to visit the one in Singapore. Hope to win the tickets ! so looking forward to!
I like to win this as my kids will then know that one must sweat and toil to earn his keeps otherwise they will not know the true value of money.
I haven't had the chance to visit any Kidzania and I hope my first maiden trip with my kids will be Kidzania Singapore on our home ground! Thank you for hosting the giveaway!
Liked & shared the Facebook page. We would really really jump over the moon if we win the tickets for our two kids (4 & 5 year olds) to visit Kidzania! And their birthday is coming! Going to kidzania for free will be the perfect birthday present for them!! Love, Aida & her 2 sweet gremlins (Allyssa & Antonii) ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Super eager to visit this latest attraction!!! The plane looks awesome from the outside and I just can't wait to bring the kids (husband included) to play at KIDZANIA!

Hello
We went there twice and it was awesome!!!
Obviously this is a paid for post from kidzania. You will never arrive at the Singapore kidzania without 1.5 hour Que to get in. Then the kids will be really bored waiting 45-1hour for each activity.
Don't waste your time or money.
Outside Singapore the organization is far better.
Hi Anon,
Thanks for taking time to leave your thoughts.
I would like to think that this is your first time visiting my blog. Because if you are a regular reader, you will know that I declare all my posts upfront if they are paid posts or media invites. The declaration can be found in the first line of the post, directly under the blog post title.
For this post, I was not paid. Rather, it was a media invite, i.e. I was invited by KidZania Singapore for a sneak preview before it was opened to public. The key idea was not to 'test' out the queuing times but to share more about the various jobs that kids will be able to undertake so that parents can make a more informed choice.
I have since brought my kids back to KidZania in August and while we did not go on a weekend, the queue to enter and the queues for the job took us no more than 15 minutes on average each.
Lastly, perhaps you may consider leaving behind your actual name instead of hiding behind a nameless identity to sound more credible. Thanks for your time nonetheless!
It is true. Every decent 'job' require a at least 45min wait. My kids walked from job to job and spent almost whole day queuing.
Parents equally frustrated. perhaps it is school holidays period therefore overly crowded.
We'll come back on a normal weekday nxt yr.
hopefully it will be better.
Unless they take in more kids per round,
