Kiddy Palace at Jurong Point to close, thanks customers for '32 years of memories'

Many Singaporeans probably grew up shopping at Kiddy Palace. 

For those living in the West, it is time to make one last trip down memory lane. 

After serving customers for more than three decades at the mall, Kiddy Palace is closing down its Jurong Point outlet on Dec 7.

"32 years of memories. One big thank you. From 1994 to 2026, what a beautiful journey it has been!" wrote the children's departmental store in social media posts on Thursday (Nov 12). 

"For 32 years, we've been part of countless childhood memories, family shopping trips, birthday surprises and little moments of happiness. Some of you grew up shopping with us, and now you're bringing your own children through our doors." 

Thanking everyone for their support over the years, the retail chain said that the Jurong Point outlet will "always have a special place" in its heart.

With the announcement of the outlet's upcoming closure, many customers started sharing fond memories at the store. 

"My first-ever Beyblade was bought from here back in the early 2000s," one commented on Facebook. 

Another said: "When my kids were babies they loved to go there and touch the toys. And mummy would 'woah' at the prices... Confirm going back to see see look look with them again [sic]." 

Kiddy Palace's Jurong Point outlet is holding a moving out sale from Nov 13 to Dec 6, where shoppers can enjoy 30 per cent off regular items and 10 per cent of all nett-priced and offer items. 

"Before we close this chapter, we hope to see you one more time. Come visit us and be part of our final memories together!" the retailer said.

Founded in 1992, Kiddy Palace is a local retail chain focusing on children and maternity products.

The Jurong Point outlet, which opened in 1994, is one of the brand's first few stores. 

Following its closure, there will be nine Kiddy Palace outlets in Singapore.
