Remember our Chek Jawa trail in Mar? We love it so much that we revisit Chek Jawa again in June. Thanks to Heng family, we plan our visit during low tide, and we follow nPark’s guide to explore the wetland.
It was a Wet morning, we don our rain-coats and caps and continue exploring our ecosystem.
We can catch some exotic water creatures.
For more fabulous wildlife, do pop by our guest post on WhiteAsMilk.
What else can you find on Pulau Ubin?
More Chek Jawa post and pictures can be found here :

– Heng family (BPDG)
– general Pulau Ubin tour (with Naked Hermit Crabs, we climb the tower, spotted mudskippers, hornbills etc)
– Fanpage photos here
** Do take note that wetland walk can only be book through Nparks. Each tour costs $60, shared among 15 participants. This is not inclusive of bumboat and mini-van fares ($2.50 and $4 respectively).
If you need more Stars, they do not get bigger than Pulau Semakau‘s :p
Reposting our Playground Memories from our old blog. In 2011, we covered 7 old-school playgrounds over a period of two months. Sadly some playgrounds has since been torn down….
Daddy found this interesting article on Friday’s (07-Jan-2011) Straits Times Life section. He saw seven 30+ years old Playgrounds!
We got inspired, and ## Project Playground (PP) was born.
Sengkangbabies will be roaming these prehistoric playgrounds, before they are gone for good! Sadly, in Singapore, everything is build, tore down, and rebuild again in accelerated speed π
Our Old-playground project is not only dedicated to the kids, but also to everyone who is young-at-hearts π Yes, you!! The boys and girls born in the 70s and 80s. Feeling Nostalgic already?
#Playground 1 – Dragon – Ang Mo Kio Ave 3 Blk 570
Kids start climbing the stairs and the Dragon’s guts.
Video : Exploration, slow and fast boys
Boys, do you realise this playground is nearly as old as your Daddy?
On hindsight, Daddy should arrange smallest one behind..
Sliding with Sengkangbabies are never boring ! Yi got angry keke.
Video : Even Daddy could not resist the slides !
How many kid have fond childhood memories of Dragon?
When will people start taking care of their own playgrounds and backyards?
The other newer playground.
2) As part of 2011 M1 Singapore Fringe Festival (arts), School of Hard Knocks had showcased their “playgrounds-collection” captured over the last few years.
Quoted from their Facebook Wall
~~ The playground was our school, imagination was our friend, lifes lessons were learnt through the bumps and bruises we gathered from knocking against those colourful, rock hard mosaic tiles ~~
