CCS Workshops · Team-building · Singapore
Guided builds that teach the science behind glass, soil, water and plant. Eight workshop formats at our studio — for individuals, couples, and corporate teams. You leave with the build you made, and the knowledge to keep it alive.
Select your build
Every workshop runs at the studio with all materials and plants included. You'll learn to build and care for the habitat — animals are not provided, so you can add your own once it's ready. Each workshop is curated and made to teach you the right things.

In their words
My boys and I recently attended the crab nano paludarium workshop at Chai Chee Safari, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience! The session was well-structured and hands-on, making it perfect for beginners… What really stood out was the excellent aftersales support.
Had a wonderful experience with their paludarium workshop… The instructor was also the founder who was passionate, knowledgeable and super patient… It's not your cookie cutter workshop and we walked away with foundational knowledge and the confidence to set up one ourselves.
A wonderful experience with Edwin, our instructor. He is very knowledgeable… open to share all knowledge, to build and maintain the terrarium we build. We were super satisfied with ours, simple yet so cool. We will definitely be back to do more, and bring more friends.
We engaged Chai Chee Safari, highly professional and experienced terrarium vendors, for a customized team-building session. The exceptional plant quality and engaging experience made it thoroughly enjoyable—definitely worth the investment!
Terrarium events are relaxing, easy to join, and let everyone get creative while learning about plants. They help reduce stress and boost team spirit with a simple, hands-on activity. Everyone gets to take home a mini garden as a nice memory.
