So the last time I came over to West Coast Park was at least in April when we still lived in Dover Park View. Several months and a lot of work (not to mention money) later and the kids play area has been transformed into a veritable adventure playground for kids of all ages (yes, of course I had a go!). It was just staying to happen as we moved away but I didn't think it would end up looking like this!
Previously the kids area looked like this.
Now there are myriad areas to explore and they aren't all aimed at my two's age group (2 & 4 years old). There are even some quite scarily high climbs to be had which is quite a surprise given Singapore's usually conservative approach to kids and potential danger.
There are some additional younger kids play things which my two thoroughly enjoyed. Having said that they eventually gravitated back to the original play area with it's ships and slides and sand.
Sufficed to say the kids had a great time and I don't think it will be the last time we venture out this way as pretty much the only thing missing from East Coast Park where we live is a kids playground (somewhat unbelievabley)! Oh and the parking's free too. Bonus!

ReplyDeleteWe often walk over there, WCP is a lovely area. The back of our condo is on West Coast Hwy and we can see the park from here.
Check out Kent Ridge Park next time - there's a great treetop walkway! Plus I live right beside it! ;D
ReplyDeleteKnow it well Tanya. We used to live five minutes away in Dover. Love that whole area. Leone,would have done if the kids had been in the mood ;)
