Worth stopping over there?
Much to do for a family of 4?
Probably flying through there so considering a stop over but remember I despise Hong Kong so wont be going there if its anything close to that.

How could you despise Hong Kong?

Much more cleaner and less hectic than Hong Kong, but more boring and less atmosphere in my opinion.

Can take the family to Sentosa Island for a day, and to the Singapore zoo (quite good at night and much different to most zoos around the world as there are very few cages).

3 nights would be more than sufficient.

It is a big city, with big city values and "entertainments" - that'll do for me.
Singapore Zoo is good, especially the night tour if it is still operating. [The separate Butterfly House appeals to kids I think. I didn't go to that.]
The day trip to Malacca is worth doing too.

well worth doing clean city for Asian standards. The Zoo is great and they also have a night tour and the mrs will love the shopping

For shopping I thought KL was better value than Singapore, but it may depend on what you want.
I had some suits tailored in Singapore last time I was there - good value for a fine wool and silk blend.

The great thing about travel is different peoples perspectives. I hated singapore but go to HK every year and love it. Have taken my 12 yo twice and its his favourite. We loved KL aswell, great place for day or 2 stopover with families. Best shopping value in asia
