If you’re thinking of bringing your children to Tarawih this Ramadan, you’re probably wondering… which mosque is actually manageable with kids?
Some children fall asleep halfway through prayers.
Some get restless. And sometimes parents just want a few quiet rakaat without worrying about what their child is doing.
The good news is that several mosques in Singapore now offer child-friendly programmes and even childminding sessions during Ramadan, making it easier for parents to attend Tarawih while still bringing the whole family along.
The official Ramadan Mosque Services 2026 lets parents check which mosques offer services such as Tarawih arrangements, Muslimah prayer spaces and childminding options near their homes.
Here are some mosques parents can consider this Ramadan.
Mosques with Childminding Services
For parents with younger children, mosques with childminding or structured kids’ activities can make a big difference.
Instead of worrying about whether your child is getting restless, you can focus on your prayers, knowing they are supervised.
Masjid Abdul Aleem Siddique (Telok Kurau): This east-side mosque offers daily childminding services during Ramadan, making it one of the more reliable options for parents who plan to attend Tarawih regularly.
It’s a practical choice for families with younger children who may find it difficult to sit through long prayers.
Masjid Al-Muttaqin (Ang Mo Kio): Masjid Al-Muttaqin runs Ramadan childminding sessions during Tarawih, helping parents attend prayers while children take part in supervised activities.
For families living in the central and northeast areas, this mosque can be a convenient and structured option.
Masjid Darul Aman (Jalan Eunos): Some Tarawih sessions here include children’s activity programmes, typically suitable for children around preschool or primary school age.
Instead of just sitting through prayers, children can stay engaged while parents perform Tarawih.
Masjid En-Naeem (Hougang): Masjid En-Naeem offers childminding on selected Ramadan nights, making it helpful for parents who want occasional Tarawih visits without the stress.
It’s a good option for families trying Tarawih with young children for the first time.
Mosques That Are Easier to Visit with Kids
Even without childcare services, many parents find that neighbourhood mosques are often the easiest option.
Shorter travel times mean children are less tired, and familiar surroundings help them settle more quickly.
One example is Masjid Al-Istighfar (Pasir Ris), a large neighbourhood mosque with air-conditioned prayer halls, lifts and ramps that make visits easier for families with strollers or younger children.
However, for many parents, the simplest solution is often the mosque closest to home.
