Jacob Ballas Children's Garden

The Jacob Ballas Children’s Garden is the first garden in Asia dedicated to children. Its theme of ‘Life on Earth Depends on Plants’ aims to educate and instil a love for nature in children. The garden is a complete nature-learning environment, where children can delve deeper into the ecology of plants and our environment through discovery and experiential learning.

Typically it is free admission. As Jacob Ballas Children’s Garden is designed for children aged 14 and below, you will need to pay attention to the admission requirement and not so straightforward.

1) Children aged 12 and below must be accompanied by an adult.
2) To promote a safe environment for children, adults are permitted entry only if accompanying a child. 3) Adult visitors without children must consult the Service Desk for entry, which is normally permitted only when accompanied by NParks’ staff.

Overall, i think the park is great with some special elements for the children to have fun and also learnt about some puzzle and gardens knowledge. It is quite crowded in the weekends, but mainly at the Water Park section and Tree Playground. Other than that, it is quite ok to walk around to explore.

Operating Hours: The Jacob Ballas Children's Garden is closed on Mondays (except when it falls on a designated public holiday) | 8.00am - 7.00pm
