Christmas Made Perfect at Frasers Centrepoint Malls

[Media Invite]

I was super busy the whole of last week that I totally forgotten about the invite to catch Alice In Wonderland at The Centrepoint last Friday. And I am so glad I managed to bring the three older kiddos down in the end. I usually have little expectations for mall shows because they are after all, short skits with mascots dancing or teasers for the full but ticketed productions.

Got to know a little more about Alice before she started performing for everyone.
I had to give my two thumbs up to this fantastic show put up by The Centrepoint. It kept the kiddos entertained and they were so engrossed with the performances from the start till the end! It was truly a broadway-styled rendition of the popular story of Alice In Wonderland, with performers in exquisite costumes and they were all singing live!

The Queen has got to be one of the most animated characters! Damn funny!
But that's not all, there were even magic and circus arts built into the story. Comedic magic lead to much laughters while the gravity-defying balancing kept everyone at the edge of our seats! Despite the relatively small stage, the show still managed to keep everyone from kiddos to even adults like myself and the rest of the parents entertained! A show not to be missed if you are around Orchard!

Juggling acts!
Confetti shower!
Amazing acrobatic feats!
And of course, a nice group photo with all the casts at the Meet-And-Greet!
Meanwhile, The Centrepoint is also in the running for the Orchard Road’s Annual Best Dressed Building Competition and you will be able to find lots of giant Gingerbread Man at the front of the building for lots of photo opportunities, with fake snow added at certain timings too!

Toys"R"Us Vivocity Flagship Store Revamp!

[Media Invite]

Toy"R"Us had always been a place I could stay in for hours at a time since young. I had always been fascinated by the many different "toys" I was able to find there, especially the "Sea Monkeys" sets and other educational sets like the working telescopes and microscopes!





Was invited over to their huge flagship store at Vivocity after their revamp recently and I am positively certain that any toy-loving kid (or adult alike) will find it really hard to leave the 30,000sq ft store! The entire store looks so much bigger and brighter, the aisles felt wider too and the toys selection was simply overwhelming.



















The LEGO section alone took up a fairly big space (not that I am complaining) and in conjunction with the re-opening of the Vivocity store, Toys“R”Us has launched, for the first time in Singapore, the LEGO Star Card which offers exclusive gifts and benefits! Brick lovers rejoice for the selection of LEGO sets here is comparable, and even more comprehensive than some of the LEGO specialty stores!



















Besides being able to try out the many toys first before purchasing, there are also lots of photo opportunities for everyone in the store. Two life-sized Stormtrooper are located near the entrance while the 4 huge Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are housed near the other end! And there are numerous other play area or pop-up display throughout!






Go check out the store if you are near the vicinity, it's definitely worth a visit if you need to get some toys for whatever reasons. Otherwise, you can also catch Pokemon while you are there!
