Ranger Buddies CNY Mission: Gallop into the New Year

Venue: Forum The Shopping Mall, Basement 1 Atrium
Dates: 23 Jan - 1 Feb 2026, 11 am - 8 pm daily
Admission: Free
This Lunar New Year, head over to Forum The Shopping Mall for a special Ranger Buddies mission that combines festive fun with wildlife discovery.
In the Gallop into the New Year mission, children team up with Ranger Buddies Al & Min on a quest to reunite various horse breeds for a big "lo-hay" potluck. It is a fantastic way for kids to learn about the social nature of horses while participating in hands-on activities, a meaningful way to celebrate the Year of the Horse!

The event features a variety of interactive stations designed as a stamp rally to keep little ones engaged! So collect your "Lo-Hay" postcard and collect stamps as you complete each station:
-
Size Up the Falabella: In this phygital activity, kids will get to meet the worldâs smallest horse breed and must guess its height by placing magnets in the correct boxes. They can then scan it with their Ranger Buddies app and reveal a 3D Falabella horse if the answer is right.
-
The Wild Horse Rescue: Children learn the inspiring story of the Przewalskiâs horse, the worldâs last truly wild horse. This station involves hopping across logs and AR scanning the floor items to reveal how this breed of horse was successfully brought back from extinction.
-
Grit and Agility Ring Toss: Inspired by the hardy Mongolian horse, this ring toss tests a child's "grit". Instead of a standard toss, kids will spin a digital wheel on the Ranger Buddies app and be assigned a tricky starting position. Whether they have to stand on one leg, face backwards, or hop while aiming, itâs a fun way to practice perseverance while trying to land the rings.
-
Shire Horse AR Colouring: Young artists receive a colouring sheet of the majestic Shire Horse. Once they have finished their masterpiece, they can scan it with the Ranger Buddies app to watch their unique, hand-coloured creation come to life on their device.
Once the little ones have conquered all the stations and filled their stamp rally card, they will receive a token for the Lucky Capsule Machine. Every capsule contains a mission completion badge (available while stocks last), and lucky explorers might find an additional random prize inside, such as Mandai Wildlife Reserve park tickets, exclusive Ranger Buddies Year of the Horse red packets or other special surprises.
