Barney's Beach Party 'Live' On Stage @ City Square Mall

Barney and friends are back for another musical this June holiday!

Our first Barney show last year was such an enjoyable one and we just had to catch these big friends again! 

I didn't know if we could make it on time to the 1pm show last Sunday as it was 11am when we got back from church and we still had to take our lunch, shower, run some errands and pack in a few more stuff for our church retreat. So, I decided to leave the errands & final packing to Hubby and headed out with Emma alone. Alas, we made it to the atrium 10 mins before the show start but had to squeeze into the crowd and stand through the show.

Tip 1: Look at the Sunday crowd! It's best to arrive 30 mins before the show start if you like to have some "seats" for this free show.

Tip 2: Don't forget to prepare some snack to keep your little ones occupied while waiting for the show to start. 

Barney's Beach Party 'Live' On Stage

The Barney's Beach Party 'Live' On Stage is taking place from 4 to 19 June 2016 at City Square Mall, Level 1 Atrium. The show runs at 2pm & 7pm from Tuesday to Friday and 1pm, 4pm & 7pm on Saturday and Sunday.

Barney and friends never disappoint! Together with a cute chirpy trouper, Barney, BJ and Baby Bop sang and danced to a collection of favourite summer tunes - Mr Sun, If all the raindrops, If I lived under the sea, I love you and more.

Like many other children, Emma had an awesome time and kept waving when each of them appeared. It's so entertaining - I'm sure most children and even adults would love it.

Tip 3: Bring along your child's favourite Barney stuff to jazz up atmosphere. Hopefully, it will stop them from asking for more Barney toys when they pass by the Toy'r'us pop up store next to the show.

Shoppers can redeem a Meet & Greet pass 1 hr before each show to take a family photo with the Barney and friends with a minimum of $50 spent.

Tip 4: To avoid any disappointment, redeem the pass earlier as there are only 50 passes per show. 

Sandcastle Display

Watch the City Green Outdoor Park transformed into an urban beach with a big sandcastle on display till 26 June 2016. 

If you happen to drop by, don't forget to take a fun family photo with the sandcastle and share it on Facebook, Hashtag #BeachFunAtCitySquareMall and tag "City Square Mall". 3 winners will walk away with $100 worth of vouchers. Check out www.citysquaremall.com.sg for details. 

Summer Splash Carnival

Get ready for some splash-tastic fun over that Level 1 City Green! There are lots of sand-sational seaside activities lined up for the children.

Emma tried to be adventurous and asked to ride the bumper boat. She had fun for a few mins before losing control over the steering wheels and turned in circles. The crew helped her out and she was saved. But, it's actually a very safe ride as the pool isn't very deep and there are a couple of crew around.

Next, she tried sand bowling.

She had fun throwing the ball on the sandpit even though she didn't strike any pin.

Among all, Emma wanted to play with sands the most but we gave it a miss as it was very hot in the afternoon.



Older children can also try surfing at the mechanical surfboard. It's my first time seeing such surfing on a bouncing wave. How exciting!

There is another an inflatable rock climb for the active children.

For those who prefers to be grounded, they can try Frisbee :)

Or play some carnival games.

The carnival opens from 1pm to 10pm daily and ends on 26 June 2016. Tickets can be purchased at the ticket booth right outside the shopping mall. It's $2 per ticket or $10 for 6 tickets

Tip 5: Hit the carnival in the late afternoon or evening for a cooler play!

A Sea of Gifts

With $200 (or $300* NTUC Fairprice receipts) spent, shoppers will receive a Beach Survival Set consisting of a 12-can cooler bag for their beverages as well as a beach mat which comes along with an inflatable pillow.

In addition, shoppers get to receive a complimentary $5 voucher with the purchase of $50 worth of City Square Mall vouchers.
