    Where Every Child Gets to Imagine, Experience, Discover and Dream 

    KidsSTOP™ is the Science Centre Singapore’s dedicated Children’s Science Centre. Officially opened on 5 June 2014, children aged 8 years and below can learn to inquire, investigate and innovate in a safe and conducive 3,000m² gallery that focuses specifically on science for kids. 

    With more than 20 exhibits

    Designed to introduce concepts of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics, children are provided with ample opportunities to learn through interactive play

    Hands-on Activities

    Themed zones such as Flight and Space, Built Environment and Supermarket provide children with ample room for exploring science topics through hands-on activities. For example, our Planet Warriors marine conservation exhibit uses immersive technology to enhance learning, and our PlayMaker Studio’s robot toys and Tinkering Lab’s activities allow children to build and create. Simple basic skills in sequencing and coding are some skills that the children will pick up as they enjoy the tech toys provided.

    Edutaining Programmes

    Our Educational Programmes for Schools employ creative drama and hands-on activities to communicate, engage and teach science to young children. Our dedicated educators guide them to grasp science concepts through first-hand experiences. We aim to make learning positive and enjoyable for children and to inspire continuous engagement with science through our edutainment activities.

    Accessible and Inclusive

    This is part of our commitment to becoming more accessible and inclusive, as such, we have prepared a Sensory Levels information guide below to help you plan your day better. Social Stories, Sensory Bag, and Quiet Sessions are available to you when you need them. View in full details here.

      SENSORY LEVELS

      KS Sensory Info (Four Seasons)

      Why do some countries experience four seasons? This is because the Earth is tilted on its axis!

      SENSORY LEVELS

      KS Sensory Info (Critters)

      The Critters Room features live animals such as, tree frogs and hermit crabs to bring nature closer to young children.

      A must for thrill-seekers, the Giant J slide is where children get to safely experience the sensation of free fall before they slide to ground zero from a height of 7-meters! Children make their own decisions on how high they would like to be lifted up the slide as they challenge themselves and build confidence while having fun.

      The Dream Climber is a favourite among children as it allows them to take risks safely. Children develop their coordination skills and physical strength by moving between the platforms. They can enhance their navigational and cognitive skills as well as their spatial awareness as they navigate the structure.
