Tours cost $2 to $5 per person. Make tour and lunch bookings one week in advance. Daily: 7am-6pm.

Your child learns how a tadpole becomes a frog in school - bring the process to life at Jurong Frog Farm, the only commercial frog-breeding farm in Singapore, with some 6,000 American bullfrogs. A 38-minute tour takes you to the breeding and mating ponds where you learn about the frog's life cycle, characteristics and feeding habits. Your kids may want to take home a frog-rearing kit ($6), complete with tadpole feed and instructions. Foodie parents will love the wide range of frog-based products, such as hashima ($15 for 20g), frog legs ($12 for 500g), and essence of bullfrog with ginseng and cordyceps ($20 for a six-pack). End your morning with a pre-booked lunch (a minimum order of $50 is required) with frog legs prepared in a variety of ways and, of course, frog leg porridge.
