How to survive a family travel with young children and elders

Travel

My husband and I have been travelling with our children and our parents since we have 2 kids 5 years ago.

Pasir Ris Park Playground – finally reopens!

Pasir Ris Park Playground is one of our favourite playground in Singapore, simply because it has almost everything a playground should have. It is great for family gatherings, be it to bring kids to playground and picnic on the green grass, or building sandcastle and relax by the beach, cycling, roller blading, basketball and all, you name it, it has them all, almost. It doesn’t have a trampoline though. Recently, we had a chance to bring the kids here when it finally reopened after an almost 2 years renovation. You still get to see most of the old play stations with some modifications.
