THE STORY

One day Little Red Hen found some grains of wheat. "Maybe I can make some bread from these," she thought. "I wonder how?" "I know, I will ask my friends; Mouse, Cat, and Goose!" Then the Little Red Hen went to her three best friends and asked, "Will you help me?" Find out exactly how helpful her friends Mouse, Cat, and Goose are; and what they learn too! Little Red Hen learns how to grow and harvest corn; and discovers how bread is made. On the way, her friends will learn some very valuable lessons about friendship and helping one another.

Singapore Soccer Academy (for 4-15 years old)

Penalties, Throw-ins, Kicks, Substitutes, Yellow Card, Fouls, Red Card and so much more you get to hear on a Soccer or a Football field. Per an image below, we can see that most countries recognize this sport as football and only in the USA, they call it soccer. Well, whichever language or country you represent, the game will still stay the same :). This was a bit about the game itself but our purpose today is to let you know of this SINGAPORE SOCCER ACADEMY, which is offering soccer programs for 4 years to 15 years old children, both indoor and outdoor programs located at different venues. 

They claim to have well-trained coaches and develop sportsmanship, social skills & build confidence among children.

It doesn't seem to be too expensive as apart from the registration fee, you have to pay $25 per weekday session and $30 per weekend session. You may want to confirm with the academy as well as the charges and schedules are subject to change.

For a free trial and teaching soccer to children, call Zorke at 92463934 or Coach Kali at 96694009 or Coach Stephen at 91826014

Mini Golf in Singapore

I have grown up as a serious no non-sense golfer where you do not just play golf for fun only but you do have certain aims and ambitions in mind to achieve on the course. You hit one wrong shot means you have to hit at least 100s of more shots of similar kind until you master it. There were only a few people who would pick up this sport. Firstly, it's an expensive hobby. Secondly, it would be associated more with older people due to the slow nature of the play. Thirdly, it gelled well with military chaps in certain parts of the world. However, people like myself simply loved the game though. 

Good that not many years ago, we heard about the new concept of miniature golf famously known as mini-golf which attracted even more people who did not wish to play the actual golf but wanted to have fun on the indoor/outdoor miniature replica of it. There were times when we could at most see artificial putting mats or plastic balls for hitting practice or so but ever since mini-golf concept has evolved we get to see fantastically designed miniature golf courses both indoor and outdoor, in many parts of the world. It's more like putting on the artificial miniature of the actual golfing landscape.

Though we do not have many mini-golf courses in Singapore but we do have some good ones which we could consider going with friends and families.

Lilliputt

Lilliputt is an indoor Singapore theme based mini-golf attraction for everyone including the tourists. You can discover Singapore in 18 holes as the course encompasses the city's famous landmarks including Esplanade, Sentosa, Singapore Zoological Gardens and many many others. The facility can accomodate groups of up to 80 people. You can also organize birthday parties or so.
