    If the last time you visited the Science Centre Singapore was during a primary school field trip, you NEED to make another visit ASAP. There’s plenty to see and do including getting lost in a mirror maze, experiencing ageing and also a 007 moment with a laser maze. 
    Here are some things you didn’t know you could do at the Science Centre Singapore!

    1. Laser Maze 

    We bet you’ve seen these laser mazes in action movies and thought to yourself, how hard can it be? Well, now you can try it out for yourself! Step into a completely dark arena with more than 50 laser beams. Your mission is to navigate the maze and complete it without coming into contact with any laser beam. 
    ﹩ $5/2 runs
    📍 Hall A

    2. Experience ageing 

    This is our favourite exhibit! Dialogue with Time - Embrace Ageing lets you experience day to day tasks but as an elderly. Seemingly easy tasks like picking up things with a spoon are made difficult with a tremor and it truly helps you empathise with the elderly.

    Other tasks include sorting tablets which made us break a sweat!

    There’s also a photobooth that shows you what you’ll look like when you age.

    Make sure you get the package that includes entry into Butterflies Up-Close to enter!

    4. Lie in a coffin

    We all have fears and in the award winning Phobia²: The Science of Fear exhibition, you’ll get to face some of yours. Lay in a coffin, face your fear of clowns, public speaking and even losing your phone? 
    #Didyouknow: Before the age of modern medicine, when the diagnosis of death was less accurate, coffins were often fitted with a bell-rigged device above-ground. Should a person awake from the dead (for those mistakenly buried alive), they would alert mourners of their ghastly plight.

    5. Get trapped in a mirror maze

    Professor Crackitt’s Light Fantastic Mirror Maze is a life-size labyrinth of mirrors, filled with infinite reflections and endless hallways. You will be given a foam noodle to make sure you don’t walk into any mirrors and hurt yourself. On the bright side, getting lost in such a pretty maze means you can stop at every corner for photos!
