Homeschooling A Different Park Auntie and MsI were heading to what they call the Sand Playground, but MsE knew she couldn't go along, because we're only allowed out in groups of 2.
Nature Intro to the Turtles We took a neighbourhood family of girls with us to meet the turtles at Hort Park.
Nature Rainy Days I think most of my posts are about our sunny days, but we get a lot of rain in Singapore too.
Nature Tiong Bahru Park Auntie took MsE out for the day just the 2 of them last week. This week they brought us along to the new park they had explored together.
Nature East Coast Park This Sunday we headed to East Coast Park. This park runs along the palm tree lined beach for miles and miles. It's a favorite picnic and biking spot for many.
Nature Playing in the Trees The weather has turned quite hot in Singapore now. We left our condo to travel to Garden by the Bay together at 9:30 and it was already very hot. I was worried that we didn't have sunscreen on yet for the 10 minute walk to the MRT.
Nature Ponds We were heading back to the MRT station after a full day at the Gardens, when the girls decided to wander off the path to peer into some ponds.
Nature Up in the Clouds Jonathan and I ended our Day Date at the Cloud Forest in Garden's by the Bay. It was a lot more peaceful in there without the kids.
Homeschooling Bird Park Nature Journalling Getting inside the Aviaries means getting up close to the birds. No fences in here. We all took turns taking photos with the phone cameras and then pulled out our sketch books.
Homeschooling Marine Explorers Completion We have just one month left on our Aquarium Annual Pass, so we figured we should try to fit in a few more visits.
Nature Stroll to Swan Lake Back on the Main Path, we found ourselves at Swan Lake. I though perhaps the pond was named after the statue in it's midst, but then we saw the real swans.
Nature Admiralty Park Before we moved to Singapore, I showed the girls a video of the what was considered the best playground in Singapore. We finally visited it.
Nature Venturing into the Park MsE asked to visit the sand playground and we literally ran out of the house to accommodate her - to get to the sand playground you have to pass the trees where the monkeys live and MsE knew it.
Nature Bad Monkey MsE and I had an appointment to talk about how hard MsE finds it to leave the house some days.
New Normal Cable Cars MsI asked to go on the Cable Cars one morning. We wandered around asking if anyone wanted to come too, but we ended up getting to have a little walk and a ride just the two of us.
Nature Zoos and the River Safari We went to one of Singapore's zoos yesterday and it felt like a long time since we'd visited one. Turns out our last trip to a zoo was 10 months ago - December 2019.
Nature Morning Stroll When MsI realized we were going to the Park, she ran and got Hei Hei (the chicken from Moana). She wanted to show him the the Jungle Fowl that live in the park.
Nature Snake in the Park We saw lots of wildlife on our visit to Hort Park - including our first wild snake.
Nature Sentosa Trails MsI and I had a Mommy-Daughter Date. She loves the cable cars so we headed to the cable car station and then for a nature walk just the 2 of us.
Nature Flower Dome We checked out Garden's by the Bay's Flower Dome. I recognized many of the flowers here.
New Normal Stay-cations and Aquariums It's hard to believe that it is more than halfway though the year; it was time for Jonathan to use up some Annual Leave.
Nature Singapore River Walk After lunch Jonathan and I took a little stroll along the Singapore River, a couple hours and 6 km later we called a Grab and headed home.
