Educational Trip for Kids

Sigh...with Baby FAN stilling breastfeeding, I'm rethinking about bringing SMALL FAN overseas this year. So, decided that since I can't bring him oversea, I might as well make his days more interesting by bringing him to visit Singapore instead. Was searching thru the web for interesting place to bring SMALL FAN to in Singapore and was surprised with the wide variety.

Nature (Parks & Reservoir)
All the different parks and reservoir like:
  • Upper & Lower Pierce (I actually like this place, very nice and peaceful)
  • MacRitche
  • Hort Park and Garden Walk as a park connector in the Southern Ridges, a 9-kilometre long stretch of green spaces stretching from Mt Faber Park in the east to West Coast Park in the west
  • The Canopy Walk, a part of the Southern Ridges of Singapore, is located at the end of Pepys Road near the Reflections At Bukit Chandu heritage museum at Kent Ridge Park
  • Henderson Waves, Highest Pedestrian Bridge In Singapore
  • Bishan Park - just realised that they have a herb nursery and fruit nursery there, for Fruit nursery, they even conduct educational tour every 1st Sat of the month (check out more about the tour on this link
Nature (Farms & Wetlands)
There is a lot of small farms in Kranji area that are open to the public. Check on these websites for more details:
Kranji Countryside
Wetlands

You can check out the websites of these individual farms for more details:
Bollywood Veggies
Aero-Green Techology Pte Ltd

Oh by the way, check out this blog, the blogger wrote a lot of post on the interesting places he has visited in singapore and beware, it's really a lot:

Culture
Can also bring kids to more cultural stuff such as concerts, theatre performance and even free performances at esplanade. Check out sistic and esplanade for more details. I'm planning to bring SMALL FAN to see "The Very Hungry Caterpillar at Victoria Theatre":

Can also visit museums, one free one is the Central Fire Station, planning to bring SMALL FAN there one day.

Tourist Attractions
Of course, not forgetting the tourist attractions like Sentosa, Jurong Bird Park, Zoo, Science Centre. I'm even considering bringing SMALL FAN for the Ducktours.
