Not sure what to do or kids’ preference? No worries, there is something for everyone. Sports catalogue or buffet, and we were spoiled for choices.

Speedminton was new to us, combine Badminton and Tennis and you get Speedminton. To add to the confusion, you have a squash racket haha πŸ™‚

At one corner, Milo truck was always popular with SportsHub PlayDay participants, younger children might enjoy some sand art.

Family Fun Zone with many bouncing castles! Only our girl (7 years old) is interested, the boys are more interested in more contact sports.

Net ball for the kids too, they are free to participate in any event. So happy to see many families out to enjoy some sporty family moments.

A lot of folks wish to clock their steps, we heard HPB has an interesting Step Challenge campaign.

We participated in another steps challenge, “Fun Steppers” sounds harmless and suitable for family, but after going up and down a few flight of stairs, you do feel your calves going numb πŸ™‚

I thought it was a bit challenging to leave our “foot steps” around the stadium. Fortunately, we only need to cover one third of the stadium, which is still an intimidating 2088 steps.

Wei accompany me by climbing half the steps (1000 plus) before dropping off. The smaller ones ran “horizontally” after a few flight of steps!

An interesting experience for all πŸ™‚

I am the only representative for SengkangBabies, there are medals and tShirt for finishers. FitBit went crazy charting the vertical route.

Anyone in the mood for a 100m dash? This is not part of SportsHub PlayDay, but kids always love to dash on the colourful track.
