In conjunction with the promotion of Tiger Mom <虎妈猫爸> in Singapore, STAR Chinese Channel (卫视中文台) co-organised with Resorts World Sentosa, a Tiger Mom Family Day Out at Dolphin Island™ at Adventure Cove Waterpark.
We have already started to watch ‘Tiger Mom’ and enjoyed catching every episode following closely the journey, conflicts and challenges between Type-A ‘Tiger Mom’ and the more docile cat Dad in their methods in raising up their child. We are thrilled to be able to see Zhao Wei and Wang Sen in person and take part in the Tiger Mom Family Day Out. Another highlight of the event included a Family Bonding Challenge between 3 selected families where each family will get to demonstrate the essence of family bonding at Dolphin Island™.

Zhao Wei and Wang Sen were there to judge a Family bonding challenge, where three lucky families were put to the test on communicating with dolphins. Under the tutelage of dolphin trainer Eliza who shared that the key to get dolphins to react to your hand signals is to form a strong bond with them.
The three families set out to bond with the dolphins, and in doing this, amongst themselves.
The titles presented to the participating families embodied the essences of family bonding – they were, ‘Best Hand Signals’, Best Teamwork’, and ‘Best Cheerleading’.
Congratulations to the three lucky families!
Don’t forget to tune into Tiger Mom now airing on STAR Chinese Channel (卫视中文台), Singtel TV Channel 507 and StarHub TV Channel 822 every weekday from Monday to Friday at 9pm.
