Kelpie,

 

I would recommend some places you can go with your family:

 

1. Bottle Tree Park: A new branch by the people behind Bottle Tree Village. You can fish there while the kids can catch the small fish at a smaller pond, kampong style. Kids who are too young to join in the action can just wad in the pond. There is a resturant that serves beer and food too. There is also a playground for children. The park is quite scenic and a good place to take family pictures

 

2. Vivo City: Parking is easier nowadays as the crowd throng AMK Hub

 

3. Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve: Beware the mosquitoes though. May not be suitable for toddlers

 

4. Farmart

 

5. Pasir Ris Park

 

6. Changi Beach Park

 

7. Labrador Park

 

8. Bishan Park

 

9. Raffles Marina

 

10. Punggol Marina

 

11. Sentosa

 

12. Pulai Ubin

 

13. Clarke Quay

 

14. Boat Quay

 

15. Qian Hu Fish Farm

1. Sian, another boring Sunday and is still wondering where to bring the kids out? No, not another places of interest, like Zoo or bird park. Not another shopping centres with crowd!

 

2. Thought of going to some quiet places, some makan with somethings to keep kids occuppied.

 

3. Weekend is more eventful at north but in SG, such a boring country.

 

Any good suggestions to kill time? Thank you very much.

 

Regards,

go sungei kadut natural reserve lor....... got fish farm, vege farm...... then can cross over to JB pump cheap petrol....

 

1. In the end, we went to Lim Chu Kang, Neo Tiew areas. We visited the Hay, the kids have fun feeding the goats and drank the chocolate favoured goat milk. Although the goats eat those vanilia leaves but their milk still taste "goat" to me.

 

2. Wanted to visit a bird farm but was closed. Visited a mushroom farm and ended up at Bolly veggies. Regret paying that $2 to see their farm. Sigh, SG has so much to learn from MY farm in organizing and running a farm. Just go to the Desaru fruit farm, so spacious, clean and organized. Dine in for finger food and tried organic munchies.

 

3. Drove to Mandai Orchid garden for early dinner but too early. They only open at 6:30pm. That place looks so different from many years back. Seems so commercialized and need to buy entrance tickets. Food is no longer cheap. Gave up, went to Orchidville, also another disappointment, they closed their cafe already.

 

4. So for dinner, settled at Golden Mile food centre and tried the Belgium Chocolate stall. Parking is a killer.

 

5. Sigh, Malaysia is still a better place to kill for a weekend. Spend less and see more.

go pulau ubin?

 

It is one of my favourite. My little girl actually made friends with the kids there. I usually go there for seafood once a while. Good recommendation. Ever thought of booking a chalet there?

Yes, I agree. The places you visited have become very commercialised, and they also charge an arm and leg for their products even though rental or land costs is at rock bottom prices in these outskirts areas.
