TIPS:
Always check the updated train map of Singapore.  They continuously update and add more stations and route which is a good thing to make your journey a lot faster and convenient. 
Look for free SG map in airport or in malls.
Always check the park's website for the updated rates and schedule of shows.
Singapore is small but lot to offer.  If you have limited time, best to check different places or things to do and choose based on your interest.  I highly suggest tripadvisor website as people around the world do a review of different activities there. :)
