Haze day with kids: indoor places to go in Singapore

When the haze keeps children off the playground, these air-conditioned places let them burn energy indoors: free libraries and mall play areas, museums, science centres, and paid playgrounds and climbing walls across Singapore.

Details checked 15 October 2026. Hours, prices and bookings change, and venues get busy on haze days, so check the official site before you go. Today's PSI and PM2.5 →

Before you head out

  • Getting there still means time outdoors: on a bad day, keep walks short and take a sheltered route or a taxi.
  • Community clubs also open air-conditioned haze shelters during an episode. Haze help in Singapore →
  • At home instead? Keep windows shut and run an air purifier sized for the room. Air purifier calculator →
