The annual Children’s Season returns from 30 May to 28 June 2026 with a month of free and ticketed activities across 21 museums and institutions, inviting families to spark wonder and creativity
through the power of play.

Anchored on the theme ‘Sustainability’, this year’s edition invites children to become Earth’s Superheroes as they imagine a greener future through play, discovery, and wonder.

Led by Children’s Museum Singapore (CMSG) — Singapore’s first and only children’s museum — Children’s Season 2026 marks the first time CMSG celebrates International Day of Play (IDOP) through PLAY @ Children’s Season 2026, a dedicated week of play-based programmes culminating in a weekend carnival from 12 to 14 June, stretching from CMSG to Lewin Terrace and Armenian Street.

Children at the Heart of Children’s Season

As Singapore’s first and only museum dedicated to children, CMSG is built on the belief that play is how children learn most naturally and deeply. This philosophy comes to life in Children’s Season 2026, which features its third iteration of the Children’s Panel. Comprising 25 students from Huamin Primary School aged 10 to 11, the panel worked closely with CMSG and artists, providing insights and feedback to co-create this edition’s Signature Programmes. Among their contributions: a suggestion to design a badge as part of the craft component for Ms. Nat and the Zero Waste Heroes, and a hand in developing the props and costumes for the animal characters in The Four Harmonious Friends. These reflect CMSG’s genuine commitment to letting children shape the experiences made for them.

Children’s Season 2026 Programmes

From hands-on workshops and parent-child programmes to a weekend
carnival in celebration of IDOP, families can enjoy a wide-range of activities across Singapore this June holidays at Children’s Season 2026.

Based on the insights provided and selections by the Children’s Panel, this year’s edition features four Signature Programmes, spread across the island, at CMSG, Indian Heritage Centre (IHC), KidsSTOP™ and Singapore Maritime Gallery – reflecting the collaboration between HeritageSG and the Museum Roundtable network. Blending play and storytelling, the Signature Programmes invite families to learn about our heritage and sustainability.

At CMSG, Ms. Nat and the Zero Waste Heroes transforms children into Earth’s Superheroes as they lower the Waste-O-Meter through sustainable habits. Raja and the Lost Journal at IHC take participants on an interactive journey through the lives of early migrants, discovering how they turned limited resources into ingenious solutions. Children can also enjoy an immersive play-based experience to discover and save our oceans at the Singapore Maritime Gallery’s The Coral Keepers, or explore ways to champion harmonious and sustainable living through four animals at The Four Harmonious Friends in KidsSTOP™, Science Centre Singapore.

The fan-favourite Stamp Booklet Activity returns at Children’s Season 2026. Families can pick up a stamp booklet from any of the 21 participating MR members and collect special stamps after completing an activity at the venues. Prizes will be awarded based on the number of stamps collected.

Celebrate International Day of Play with PLAY @ Children’s Season 2026

In celebration of International Day of Play (IDOP), held annually on 11 June to champion every child’s right to play, Children’s Season 2026 will feature activities that promote play-based learning, with sustainability as the anchor.

True to CMSG’s belief that children learn best through play, IDOP celebrations will culminate in a vibrant PLAY @ Children’s Season 2026 Weekend Carnival, happening from 12 to 14 June 2026, stretching from CMSG to Lewin Terrace and Armenian Street.

In line with CMSG’s child-centred approach, a group of Little Ambassadors will lead a children’s takeover, taking on on-ground roles such as assisting at the booths, welcoming programme participants, assisting with registration, and ushering.

In addition to the workshops and drop-in activities, families can explore activity booths and outdoor spaces for play to learn more about being an Earth Superhero through play.

Plan your visit

Children’s Season 2026 promises a month of exploration and discovery for the next generation of sustainability superheroes. With a mix of free and ticketed programmes across the island, families can plan their June holidays around activities that suit their schedule and interests.

2026儿童季邀请孩子们成为地球超级英雄，并首度庆祝国际游戏日

一年一度的儿童季将于2026年5月30日至6月28日回归，届时将在21个博物馆和机构举办一系列免费及付费活动，邀请家庭通过游戏的力量激发好奇心和创造力。

以“可持续发展”为主题，今年的活动邀请孩子们成为地球超级英雄，通过游戏、探索和奇思妙想来想象一个更绿色的未来。

由Children’s Museum Singapore (CMSG)，新加坡首个也是唯一的儿童博物馆主办，2026儿童季标志着CMSG首次通过 PLAY @ Children’s Season 2026 庆祝国际游戏日（IDOP）。这一周的游戏主题活动将于6月12日至14日的周末嘉年华达到高潮，活动范围从CMSG延伸至Lewin Terrace和Armenian Street。

以儿童为中心的儿童季

作为新加坡首个专注于儿童的博物馆，CMSG秉持“游戏是儿童最自然、最深刻的学习方式”的理念。2026儿童季体现了这一理念，并推出第三届儿童小组（Children’s Panel）。该小组由25名来自华民小学（Huamin Primary School）、年龄为10至11岁的学生组成，他们与CMSG及艺术家密切合作，为本届特色项目提供见解和反馈。

他们的贡献包括：建议为 Ms. Nat and the Zero Waste Heroes 的手工部分设计徽章，以及参与开发 The Four Harmonious Friends 中动物角色的道具和服装。这些举措展现了CMSG真正致力于让儿童参与塑造为他们设计的体验。

2026儿童季活动项目

从动手工作坊、亲子活动，到庆祝IDOP的周末嘉年华，家庭在今年6月假期期间可以在儿童季享受遍布新加坡的丰富活动。

根据儿童小组的建议和筛选，今年的儿童季推出四个特色项目，分别在CMSG、Indian Heritage Centre (IHC)、KidsSTOP™ 和 Singapore Maritime Gallery 举办，体现了HeritageSG与Museum Roundtable网络的合作。特色项目融合游戏与故事讲述，邀请家庭了解我们的文化遗产与可持续发展理念。

在CMSG，Ms. Nat and the Zero Waste Heroes 将通过可持续习惯让孩子们降低Waste O Meter，从而变身地球超级英雄。IHC的 Raja and the Lost Journal 带领参与者通过互动体验，了解早期移民如何将有限资源转化为巧妙解决方案。孩子们还可以在Singapore Maritime Gallery的 The Coral Keepers 享受沉浸式游戏体验，探索保护海洋的方法，或在KidsSTOP™的 The Four Harmonious Friends 通过四种动物探索和谐与可持续生活的方式。

深受喜爱的集章活动将在2026儿童季回归。家庭可在21个参与的MR成员机构中领取集章册，并在完成场馆活动后收集特别印章。奖品将根据收集的印章数量颁发。

与PLAY @ Children’s Season 2026 一起庆祝国际游戏日

为庆祝每年6月11日举行的国际游戏日（IDOP），以倡导每个孩子的游戏权利，2026儿童季将推出以游戏学习为主的活动，主题围绕可持续发展。

秉承CMSG“儿童通过游戏学习效果最佳”的理念，IDOP庆祝活动将在 PLAY @ Children’s Season 2026 周末嘉年华 达到高潮，时间为2026年6月12日至14日，活动范围从CMSG延伸至Lewin Terrace和Armenian Street。

遵循CMSG的以儿童为中心的方式，一组小小大使（Little Ambassadors） 将带领儿童接管现场活动，包括协助摊位、欢迎参与者、协助登记及引导等角色。

除了工作坊和自由参与活动外，家庭还可以探索各个活动摊位和户外空间，通过游戏学习如何成为地球超级英雄。

安排行程

2026儿童季为下一代可持续发展超级英雄提供了一个探索与发现的月份。通过遍布全岛的免费及付费活动，家庭可以根据自己的兴趣和时间安排6月假期活动。
