The Hippo, Elephant, Polar Bears and Giraffe kept us soaked (literally) for two solid hours !
Actually, the kids were full of anticipation when they knew we were going for water sports. Even Daddy and Mummy are curious about the polar-bear on Sat's papers!
We arrive early..
Before we could start swimming, we participated in family photo (cosplaying),
and even sword-fighting with the resident big Polar bear :p
Did we mention this was a bloggers preview? We saw so many friends bring their kids along.
Very Very happening ! (Hello JBabies, OurEverydayThings, DaddyNivlek, aJugglingMum, MamaWearPapaShirt, RuthWongWrites and MadPsychMum). Even Tampines1 got their own blog :)
We are so glad our cousins Kara and Joley join us too :)
After seeing the compound, can you imagine how hard it is to rein the kids in?
Everyone were rushing to change into their swimming attires !
The older boys rushed to the Artic corner, and slide down Polar Bear's tummy.
Daddy love the white ice bergs ! Impressive !
Look at our cheeky Wen Yi. He is in his own world already !
Hello Wen Yi, do you know Elephant are protected species? Boy went around stalking the poor elephant haha.
Oh no, kids got water-guns in their goodies bag, and nobody was safe in their AK47 or M16 mayhem !
See how our kids enjoyed themselves !
Even our little gal was pleasantly surprised with her pistol power !
Hungry? There are
Ok, some parents got ambushed or splashed, but nobody is complaining. Just look at all the smiling little faces. Even Daddy is tempted to join in the fun !
What can you do in the dry area? Kids had a go at everything.
Come 10Mar, Tampines 1 rooftop will be officially opened. Do drop by this waterplay area, and you will understand why we love it so much !
What did we bring home with us? A giant football sofa, and additional knowledge
about Earth's eco-system and inhabitants.
We blog about Singapore's rooftop waterplay area recently, but Tampines 1 has just
set the new benchmark with it's Safari theme.
We would like to take this opportunity to thanks Tampines 1 and Fleishman-Hillard for the invite.
Do drop by our Fanpage for more Photos.
