A special day of fun for the little ones

THEY screamed, they cheered, they laughed to their little hearts' content.

That's how more than 1,000 underprivileged children celebrated an early Children's Day on Oct 2 - playing games, watching live performances and riding on rollercoasters at Universal Studios Singapore. Children's Day was on Oct 3.

Coming from more than 50 different schools across Singapore, these young participants were treated to a day at the theme park under the annual Children for Children fund-raising and charity event.
