caught the MRT to the National Botanic Gardens. Jacob Ballas Childrens Garden located a reasonable distance from the MRT entrance to the gardens. Entry to the children's garden is free. The garden is for children under twelve. Inside the entrance we walked past trees bearing papayas and bananas and also saw pineapples growing. These were of interest to a child who had only seen these fruits in a shop. We walked under a waterfall and over a suspension bridge to a playground complete with sand, a treehouse that you reached by climbing ladders and then slid down covered slides to the ground. There was a wonderful tree with stout branches that was great for climbing. The garden was shaded and provided a superb place for the many children to play and learn. We completed our visit by enjoying tasty ice creams at the cafe just outside the entrance, a cafe that catered for children as well as for their parents. Picnics are no more allowed in the gardens, for that, walk for 2-3 min to be connected into the Botanic gardens and picnic by the lake there while watching the black swans!
