1) Science Museum - what's available inside? what's so fun?
It's like the Hong Kong Science Museum. On the G/F, there's a water playground. That makes the museum so attractive to kids.
2) Wild Wild Wet = Kidz Rainforest? Same place?
Wild Wild Wet is a water park in 'Downtown East', which is near the Airport. Next to the Wild Wild Wet is another theme park called Escape. You can visit these 2 places in one go.
Kidz Rainforest is a place in the Singapore Zoo, which is at the other end of the city. Prepare that your kids will stay there for hours instead of watching animals. So, see the animals and watch the shows first. Leave the last hours at the Kidz Rainforest.
One more thing about the Singapore Zoo. No need to spend money on the so-called 'tram'. It is not a tram but a trolley carrying you around the zoo, saving you the effort in walking and also getting rid of your chance to see the animals. If you want to see animals, you need to walk to the spots! so, no need to take the tram. For the boat trip, you can still try as you can see the scenery and have a relaxing trip of about 15 mins. However, I won't take the boat if I visit the zoo again.
3) where is Singapore flyer?
Singapore flyer is in a place called 'Marina Bay'. You can find the Ritz-Carlton hotel nearby.
4) what about Duck tour? worth to try?
I didn't try the duck tour and won't try it in my next visit cos it's rather expensive. If you want to try, you need to book it in advance as I heard that it was always fully booked.
5) anything must buy in Singapore if I don't buy 斑蘭蛋糕?
You may find the price of some children's books in Singapore is lower than that in Hong Kong. You can find the book store POPULAR in Singapore. Go in to have a look. You will also be fascinated by the wide variety of exercises (from primary to secondary) available.
6) any more peacocks walking around in The Sentosa Resort in the afternoon?
I saw one in my last visit to Sentosa a few months ago. It was walking freely outside the entrance of the museum.

That means Science Museum/Zoo/Wild Wild Wet all have water playgrounds, we can go to either one but not all. which one is the funiest amongst the three of them?
Also, would you please tell me is 飛禽公園= bird park? is it worth to go with kids (aging from 3.5 to 7)?

The water playgrounds in these three places are different as these three places give different experiences to the visitors. I will say the water playground in Science Museum is some simple water exhibits that kids like to spend more time than in those indoor exhibits. The one in the Zoo makes the visit to the zoo much fun. Wild Wild Wet, is like 長隆水上樂園 (I haven't been to these 2 water parks). You can imagine how crazy you kids will become when they see the long slides, floaties and the pools.

All the three places worth going. Pick the ones that fit your schedule.

Sorry, I haven't been to the bird park.
There is another place, of which the admission is free, suits the kids. It is the Botanical Garden. It is a few bus stops away from the Orchard Road. I read from its website that there is also a water playground. (Please supplement if other BK members know about it). I plan to go there in my next visit to Singapore.
