The challenge of keeping multiples occupied is sometimes a tough one. Luckily, there are quite a few attractions here in Singapore which children may enjoy. We would like your feedback if you have been to a place which is for example good or friendly with twins, double strollers etc... please e-mail us at twins@twinsplussing.com and we will post the information here. We would love to hear from you if you have ideas to suggest. Tell us about your last short trip or holidays with the kids and let us know what was good and what was bad !
We are not going to rewrite the Singapore city guides but here are already some ideas, which are not only good for the kids, but for the parents and visitors too!
