Recommendations for outdoor activity in Singapore

[edufreaksg]

i ever went with a group of pre-schoolers to Bollywood Vegetable Farm somewhere in Choa Chu Kang. it was quite an eye-opening experience and the vegetables that were freshly plucked were very sweet!

I’ve been to Marina Barrage, it such a nice, and in fact a great place to have family and friends there.

You can do fun things to together!
Definitely a place not to miss out

Hi everyone,


What are some of the places in Singapore that parents can bring their children to during the weekends or holidays?

I will state some of my ideas. Hope you guys can share yours too!

1. Changi Airport
- New four storey slide at T3 (2 free rides can be redeemed for every $30 spent)
- Shorter slide at basement 2 of T3 (free)

- Kid’s Fun Ride at T3

2. The Zoo/ Night Safari/ Bird park
-Animals to keep the kids entertained!

3. Kranji Farm Stay
-Singapore's only Agri-tainment farm
-Go on a farm guided Tour!

we try to avoid Changi Airport - don't want to expose my kid to international viruses, not to mention the expensive carpark.


Usual handouts -
1. museums (exhibits change from time to time, some time of the year, like now, it's specially designed for children),
2. Science Centre

See Hann's blog for more local places:

Qian Hu fish farm is quite fun. $5 for long kang fishing, they’ll give u a free tank and u get to keep the fish u caught. There’s also a fish spa for those who would like to remove dead skin. $10 for fish spa. Please take note that there’s s time limit but I can’t remember how long… There’s also a free shuttle bus to Lot 1

I do not know about forest adventure. What I know is that I am gonna bring my ds for a walk thru Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve. They have guided tour which is free on weekends. But be sure to bring along insect repellent, if you want to consider going there.
