FAMILY PICNICS

Escape from the city and into the greenery by heading to the park with the kids. Pack a basket, fill it with yummy grub, slather sunscreen, grab the bikes and scooters and go! Find a shady spot to plonk and while you're at it, feed some ducks, or have a ball of a time at the Jacob Ballas Children's Garden. Head to Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park and you might even get to see some otters! Want to glam it up a bit? Check out glamping packages by Glamping City or Society.
