Do your kids ever say “I wish it would snow in Singapore!”? This Christmas, they’re in luck, as we round up all the spots you can find snowfall – including some REAL snow to make snowmen and snow angels!

The most wonderful time of the year is nearly here, what with Christmas fairs and markets happening around the island, and the Orchard Road lights up and shining already. But the one thing that makes Christmas in the tropics extra special is the prospect of seeing snow in Singapore (even if it’s artificial). This holiday season, put a smile on your kiddo’s face by taking them to experience snow on the red dot at these places (some spots even promise real snow this year!).
