Botanic Gardens

We have been hearing of this new section of Botanic Gardens for kids known as Jacob Ballas Children Garden so we decided to venture there since we were in Orchard in the morning. We did not check the exact location of this place within Botanic Gardens so we parked the car at the car park near the visitor center. Looked at the map there and was told by the reception that it will take 15 mins walk to reach there. Weather was quite ok so we took a slow walk there. The boys enjoyed it as they were allowed to roam around. So the boys were given their maps and off they go.



Hmm... which way to go???

Gavin: Come come.. follow me...

Gavin: Yeah see.. found a checkpoint... we are on the right track ;-)
Since the walk is quite long, I tried to make the journey by getting Gareth to look at the flowers, leaves, butterflies and spiders. Here's 2 big spiders we caught a glimpse of.





Spotted this bird which we don't know what species it is :P


When we reached the Children Garden, the boys liked this green house so much they spent almost 20 mins walking in and out, opening and closing the window.. hahaha... Thereafter, the boys went to play at the water area and no pics to show coz papa walked all the way back to the car park and drive it to the car park at the Children Garden entrance.
