Even in the spookiest month of the year, there are many opportunities for a fun family day out – other than trick-or-treating of course. And what’s better than a fun family event? An excellent deal which doesn’t break the wallet and makes everyone happy!
You probably want to come up with the best money-smart ideas for family fun, but with your busy schedule, you don’t know where to look. Don’t worry – ONE Intervention has found out about interesting, fall-tastic events throughout the month until Halloween.
We provided all relevant information so you can decide on what outing you want. So let’s go!
The School of Spooky Sorcery
First of all, there is a magical campaign hosted in the Kallang Wave Mall. Through its Spellbound Spooktacular special, the Singapore Sports Hub has organised a pop-up in the Atrium.
In it, families play games to win magic seals in 5 interactive areas and in the end, the seals unlock a Lucky Dip in the Cauldron of Surprises. These surprises range from foldable fans to up to 2000 STAR$ reward points.
For more of a deal, you can also spend at least $60 on a single receipt (excluding FairPrice Xtra) to receive a $5 eCapitavoucher. Be part of the first 1000 CapitaStar members to be eligible for redemption. So be sure to bring your magic wands!

Children also collect sweet treats from friendly staff dressed as ghosts, and later have tea at Bakery Brera Café.

PLAY + MAKE
Another ‘learn-and-play’ experience to look out for is the PLAY + MAKE space in the Children’s Museum Singapore.
Celebrating SG60, PLAY + MAKE explores the nation’s food heritage through sensory play activities, crafts and storytelling. There’s plenty of family fun in designing outfits and ‘cooking’ food from hawker centre history, as well as touring the whimsical Maker’s Cabinet.
Note that Children’s Museum tickets require advanced booking. If your family can’t make it to the museum, there’s also the Travelling Exhibition for free storytelling sessions. In October, this takes place in Bedok Public Library.
