Installations and Showcase at Children’s Season at National Museum 2021

Our Home and Our School

What was it like growing up for children in the past versus the children of today? Visit specially created installations to explore how home and school experiences have changed over the years. Play games, write to a special senior pen pal, design your dream uniform and more in this interactive experience for the whole family!

Inter-generational Showcase: Our Home – Singapore

What is “Singapore” to our seniors and children?

Visit a showcase of artworks created as part of a virtual inter-generational programme! Inspired by conversations on selected museum artefacts covering topics related to Singapore’s identity and housing in the 1970s and 1980s, seniors and children designed their own currency notes and co-created mini HDB flat dioramas together with artist Joanne Lio.

Our Childhood

Have you ever played with a wind-up toy or a gasing? Spot four big standees featuring popular children’s toys from the 1950s and 1960s. Reminisce about the good old days by taking a photo with the standees!
