KIDZANIA SINGAPORE TO OPEN SOON
KidZania, the world’s fastest growing family edutainment phenomenon, unveiled its
town planning strategy for KidZania Singapore. Districts will be set up within
the kid-sized city to group establishments based on the nature of the establishments
and role-play activities. The decision is based on the concept of zoning, one of the
common techniques adopted by urban planners in most developed countries.
Designed to be best suited for children aged 4 and above, KidZania Singapore
complements school learning experiences through realistic role-play. Kids will have
the option to choose among a diverse range of over 80 role-playing activities within
KidZania Singapore. Town planners in KidZania Singapore have created various
Districts for the establishments, mirroring realistic urban planning techniques.
