Jacob Ballas Children Garden - Botanical Garden

Day 2 in Singapore - Father in law shall visit the hospital for Endoscopy procedure. Ok, if you asked me, why shall be there. Ermmm, it's about "Trust" that you can't just have it everywhere. It's just a better to perform endoscopy as father always complain about his digestive system as suggested by his trusted doctor since Father never have the procedure before.

While Calvin and Mother wait in the Hospital, I took Josh with me to the nearest attraction - Botanical Garden - just a minute walk from the Gleneagles Hospital.
Just drag down to find what news for children on this garden :)

In front of the Gate.

Wow mama, a lot of Bird.

 Now let me tell you, I came to Botanical Garden for the 2nd time (1st time when Josh around 1 year and 2 months old) because I heard about Jacob Ballas Children Garden and it's claim to be Asia's first children garden and I wondering what will be there.

Now, there were Two gate to entrance the Botanical Garden. And.... I just entrance the gate near the hospital which is the farthest gate from the Jacob Ballas, arggggg.....

First, I know it will took a long long walk from the map. But I felt it's took a decade when I walk with Josh - without stroller. When I arrived at visitor information center (which is on the middle of the map, they inform me that I shall walk about 30 minutes more fuihhh). As I have a limited time (must back on the lunch time), so whenever Josh felt tired and we couldn't have rest, he will asked me to carried him.

Ermm don't give up first. Many things to enjoy while you inside the garden!

Uhmm mama, I bit tired now. We take a rest on the chair.

In front of visitor information center, you finally found a direction to Jacob Ballas children garden

Now we arrived at the Jacob Ballas Children Garden. Fortunately, I just felt hurt on my ankle when we already arrived.
There a lot of thing to be looked at also, but considering my time limitation, I just choose the thing that Josh will like most.

 There were playground on the sand.

A tiny maze just for children ^^ - Josh try this too.

And a tree house with two slider - what JOsh waiting for! (Ok, what he keep in mind while walking to this place was there were slider waiting for him :p. So he like, "yeay" finally!)
It's quiet high, but it's perfectly landed. I try it first and Josh follow me. The next time, he do it by him self :)

Petite chair made of wood

Done with the tree house, we walk to the splashing area and on the way there we saw a school children got into class for learning about garden.

Close our day in Children garden by playing with the water splash. Many children there. will link to the video once it's ready. Josh did cry when we ended our played there. Sorry Josh, but we need to head back.

it's Free for entrance the garden and enjoyed the facilities there.

Now, to get back to hospital, definitely big no no for me to walk another one hour with Josh on my hand.
I get out from the nearest gate, walk to the Bus stop on the Farrer Road and wait for the Bus there.
When a minute before I arrived at the bus stop, there were two bus pass on me, so it's took for a while to wait for our bus.  Here I took some of Josh action while waiting for the bus.

It was my private date with Josh ^^/, a tired one hahaha.

We back to hospital just in time, Daddy just line up for food in the cafetaria. Yeay!
