Science Centre Singapore’s Built To Chill is a free festive LEGO pop-up for children aged 18 months to 8 years, running from 21 November 2026 to 3 January 2027. It is open from 10am to 5pm in the KidsSTOP Lobby.
The theme is keeping cities cool. Children learn why cities get hot, then build their own answer to it.
What children do
There are three parts. A Learning Zone covers climate change and simple cooling solutions. A LEGO Building Zone has a large building platform where children design structures to cool a city: shady spaces, greenery, cool buildings or something new. A third display shows artworks made by children in past KidsSTOP programmes.
