intheBUZZ Ritz Kids Ritz-Carlton recently launched the exclusive Ritz Kids children’s programme aged from four to 12, in partnership with Jean-Michel Cousteau’s Ocean Futures Society. Designed to give kids an enjoyable time, the experience in Singapore begins with a welcoming reception at check-in with an arrival folder comprising of an activity book, stickers and crayons. This is to encourage them to explore the sights and sounds of the hotel and its environment while instilling a love of discovery and sense of curiosity. The experiences are based on four key pillars: Water, Land, Environmental Responsibility and Culture. Guests staying with children under four years of age will receive a mini canvas tote bag with a baby bib, rubber duck, bath amenities, as well as diapers and baby crib set up in the room. Our quest is to spoil your sometimes finicky, always worthy skin with the most pure, eco-conscious products possible. After all, you may obsess over what you put in your body, but think about what you put on it.
