Jacob Ballas Children's Garden Outing

It was DS's childcare holiday. So we decide to make a trip to Jacob Ballas Children's Garden. It was a hit with DS. The place have a great variety of things to play with and lots of room to run and explore. It was great for mummy too as there is plenty of beautiful trees and flowers with clear signs and little bits of information around the garden to make the trip an educational one for both of us.

West Coast Park Adventure Playground

It all started with a trip to Mc Donald's at West Coast for brunch. DS was eyeing a brightly coloured playground as he chomp on his kid's meal as fast as he could and after that we braved the hot sun to check it out.


Turns out this is just one part of a very large adventure playground that really is a combination of  eight playgrounds targeted at different age groups.

one-north Park


We were first attracted by the Big "Leaves" structures by the road and my little boy will always tell me he wanted to explore the place. I finally give in to his request as I too was curious where the inviting entrance will lead to. As he ran up the foot path towards the water wall feature which reminds me of a water fall, I am glad I let my little one bring me through the urban park.

Tiong Bahru Park

Conveniently located right beside Tiong Bahru Plaza, this park is centrally located, with a large enough area to roam about. There are lots of things to see, with a variety of plants and flowers and a pond with aquatic plants, fishes and tortoise. We saw a family of tortoise sun bathing one late morning to the excitement of my little one.
Complete with a large playground with a tilting train, merry go round among other fun stuff. It is one of the few remaining playgrounds that still uses sand and you will see many children bring their tools for building and digging.
