Now, after months of staying at home, we have an option to travel to a good number of destinations. With many of the countries and travel destinations reopening, the hospitality and travel industries are also taking the necessary measures to ensure the safety and well-being of tourists.

The best online learning tools for this holiday season
So we hear a lot about all the benefits of online learning. But what about the amount of confusion that it creates? There’s just too much content out there in the online space and this applies to online educational content and online learning tools as well. So what do you need to do? You need to find out the best ones and utilise them. At times, keeping it simple can help a lot.
Online Learning – How’s the trend post-COVID-19 chaos?
23 January 2020 – A date that many would shudder when they recall this date. Health authorities and residents of Singapore collectively sigh as we think back on this date. This was the date that the first case of Covid-19 was confirmed in Singapore.
Here’s to a Positive Break!
Planning for a positive break Just half-way through 2020, but it feels like we’ve been in this year for ages! So, how is your 2020 going? This year, people across age groups have had their lives disrupted like never before. For kids, these disruptions are sure to have an extra impact. The pandemic related challenges…
Let’s find time to be lazy – Happy Holidays!
The average human being gets a fair share of admonishment during his/her lifetime for being lazy. Laziness has probably been frowned upon ever since we humans set foot on this planet. The mere mention of the word ‘lazy’ conjures up negative reactions. So when we tell you that you need to be spending some time ‘being lazy’ you might instantly call us outrageous. But wait, hear us out for a minute (or two).
Let’s not forget how important hobbies are!
Talking about time-out, what do we do when we need that short bout of time to rest and recharge? That’s right! Think rest, think fun, think hobby! Having a hobby is really important in life. Hobbies can be the right remedy for a variety of situations. They can offer us solace during sadness, give us a perfect break from the monotony and keep us preoccupied when there is nothing else to do.
The young and uncertain, it’s time for us to lead!
Recent findings by the National Youth Council of Singapore reveal that the pandemic has affected their mental well-being. The study points at three major issues that cause distress – fears about their future, the possibility of a financial crisis, and the inability to access services. But this has not stopped them from being compassionate at a time it is needed most! From leading initiatives such as delivering food to the needy, to giving free tuition to graduating students, youths from all across the nation are stepping up to do their part for the society.
Breathing Positivity Into The Holidays!
In times of crisis, it is truly a blessing to be amongst the people whom we love and care about. As you read this, millions of people across the globe are stranded, unable to go home and reunite with their loved ones. If you are stuck indoors with your family, then you are definitely a lot luckier than a large chunk of people. During this period let us be there for each other, spend quality time with our family and come out of all this even stronger than before. Here’s wishing all kids a stupendous holiday!
Why should we gift children with experiences?
Work from home. Home-Based Learning. #SGUnited. Social Distancing. These terms that used to carry no significance other than their definitions now have different implications. For some terms, it may even involve acts punishable by the law. With the frenzy over abiding by the laws recently set to protect our people from this formidable virus known as Covid-19, have we forgotten what it feels like to experience life in person, rather than over screens?
Let’s welcome the Year of the Rat (老鼠)!
