Flashback Fun for Free SG: Vivocity

August 29, 2014

NATIONAL DAY BLOG TRAIN HOSTED BY GINGERBREAD MUM

In this edition of Flashback Friday, I thought it’d be most apt to bring you to a location that’s fun for free (yes! free!) in Singapore. Somewhere Nakayla and I visited back in… I can’t remember when!

All I remember was that we had an awesome afternoon with Lynn and her daughter, Faith!

Located on the second floor of Vivocity is a huge playground. From dry play areas to wet play areas, there’s just so much for the children to do!


Amazing how spouts of water like these can provide a whole afternoon of entertainment!

On hot afternoons like these, it’s best for the children to stick to areas where the ground is wet. Nakayla stepped out a couple of times and cried out in pain as her little bare feet touched the blistering hot ground.

Soon, she knew that she had to stick to the wet areas, as long as her shoes are off. Makes for great ‘barricade’, if you ask me! Hehe!

One of the best things about this play area is the baby changing room nearby.

It’s air-conditioned (remember to wrap your child(ren) up before heading in to change!), has a hot water dispenser (awesome!), plenty of changing station with sinks, and private cubicles for breastfeeding moms. There is even a couch for parents to sit and rest for a moment!

For more information on how to get to Vivocity, do visit their website here 😀

Next up on Fun for Free SG is Diana of Chubby Anecdotes!

Diana Ruth from Chubby Anecdotes will bring you down the North-East Line and into the sun, sand and fun at Punggol Promenade and Punggol Waterway.

Diana is mummy to her 3 chubbies (with one more on the way!). She works part-time and runs a small face-painting business to free out more time for her children. Diana finds joy in the little things in life and blogs them down on her little piece of paradise at chubbyanecdotes.net.
