Expect lots of climbing, jumping, bouncing around, laughter, and more importantly, safe and energetic play! We’ve been there several times and want to share with you what you can expect, see, and do at this colourful, air-conditioned escape.

What to See and Do
Ride the Pororo Express

The little ones in my life love trains, so the Pororo Express Train is a must-ride.
Having minded the kids on unsafe mall trains and other places, I like that this is a quick yet safe and enjoyable ride for them. I appreciate this gentle and kid-friendly attraction that loops around a small track and features Pororo and friends in the caboose.
Pro-tip: Staff are nearby to assist, but kids must remain seated and hold on to the safety bars during the ride.
Climb all over the jungle gym

Poby’s Play Gym is a mini jungle gym with slides, climbing structures, and tunnels that can help kids burn off excess energy. It’s a softly padded setup that gives parents and child-minders like me peace of mind as we sit and watch them go wild.
It’s safe and cushioned enough for toddlers and young kids aged one to six years old, but parental supervision is still required, especially for the small ones.
Pro-tip: The jungle gym gets especially crowded on weekends, so try to visit on weekdays instead.
Go on a carousel ride

For a slow and steady ride (two of my nieces are the nervous types), we always make a beeline to the Pororo & Friends’ Gallop Station. It’s a gently spinning pastel-coloured carousel with Pororo, Crong, Eddy, and other characters watching over the ride.
With soft background music and playful lighting, this ride is worth at least several spins and lots of giggles.
Pro-tip: It’s strictly for kids only, but parents can sit or stand nearby to supervise.
Watch live shows at the Little Theatre

It’s not hard to convince my young wards to watch a live show at Tong Tong’s Little Theatre. They’re huge fans of Pororo and friends, after all.
From what we’ve seen so far, the performances are short and engaging enough for their attention span, and they’re usually done with songs, storytelling, and interactive fun.
Pro-tip: Stay close to the mini stage; some lucky kids are sometimes chosen to join in on the theatrical action!
Attend creative and science workshops

It’s not strictly playtime at Pororo Park, as Eddy’s Classroom is where the kids can get to explore arts and crafts and do simple STEM activities. My older nephews have done colouring and DIY projects like mask-making (now displayed at home with pride) there.
It’s good for short attention spans, as the sessions aren’t overly long and are engaging and beginner-friendly.
Pro-tip: Slots at Eddy’s Classroom are limited, so check the schedule and sign up early at the park’s entrance to secure a spot.
Dive into the play pit

I like to think of the Hinoki Pit as a giant sandbox (my favourite play equipment as a kid), except it’s filled with soft, scented Hinoki wood cubes instead of sand. The cubes are smooth enough for kids to dig, scoop, and bury their hands in them.
The Hinoki Pit is designed to be a calming sensory play zone, which is great for my hyperactive nephews. It’s ideal for little ones who love tactile experiences.
Pro-tip: Sit close by to watch the kids and breathe in the spa-like scent of the natural Hinoki wood!
Explore Pororo’s home

Okay, so this is where the little ones typically blow a gasket. Pororo’s House is a life-sized version of Pororo’s cosy home, straight out of the show, and it’s like visiting the character in real life!
The kids can peek inside his fridge, sit on his furniture, and explore every corner like little visitors. It’s a fun role-playing experience, especially for those who love pretend play.
Pro-tip: Plan to spend at least 15 minutes in this area, but give way to other kids who want to explore Pororo’s House, too.
Swim in the ball pool

The Shark Ball Pool is designed to look like an ocean of bright blue and white balls with an underwater theme to make it look extra fun. There’s even a shark statue positioned above the ball pit as if it’s swimming overhead!
There’s also a small slide that lands straight into the pit so kids can dive, splash, jump, wade, and “swim” through the waves of soft balls.
Pro-tip: Dress the kids in comfy and breathable clothes that allow easy movement.
Let toddlers play safely

I’m glad Pororo Park included a Toddler Area for the littlest visitors. It’s a safe, enclosed space filled with soft mats, mini-slides, and age-appropriate toys like soft building blocks, rocking animals, and sensory activity panels.
Everything in this area is low to the ground and cushioned, so parents and guardians can rest easy while their toddlers explore.
Pro-tip: The Toddler Area is best for toddlers aged 1 to 3 years old.
Grab a meal at Loopy’s Cafe

Loopy’s Cafe is my lifesaver when I need a break but the kids aren’t ready to stop playing yet. It’s right next to the play zones, so I can grab a quick coffee or bite while keeping an eye on them.
The menu has kid-sized meals, snacks, and simple comfort food like chicken nuggets, mac and cheese, muffins, cookies, ice cream cups, and more. Everything is easy to eat and perfect for little hands.
Pro-tip: Order a refreshing fruit juice or iced coffee here to quickly refuel.
Celebrate a special event

If your kid is a Pororo fan, a birthday party at Pororo Park is next-level fun. The party packages include playtime, themed decorations, and even a Pororo meet-and-greet!
The park also hosts special events like seasonal parties and character days where kids can meet Pororo and friends up close.
Pro-tip: You can customise loot bags and giveaways with extra Pororo merchandise like plush toys, stationery, and accessories from the gift shop.
Bring home a cute souvenir

Before heading home, it’s a must for us to stop at the gift shop since the kids are still on a Pororo high. The shop is packed with Pororo plushies, games, and other cute merch that typically put a dent in my wallet.
I’ve gotten a Pororo water bottle and a Crong keychain for myself, though. I couldn’t help it because they’re really cute!
Pro-tip: Budget around S$10 to S$30 for small souvenirs like keychains, but plush toys and other bigger merch can go up to S$50.
