Singapore Best Indoor Playgrounds ( 2014 - 2015 -2016-2017 Edition)

It is time for a reboot!


Our original post on the top indoor playground in Singapore is a perennial favourite among our readers. It had been constantly on the top of the weekly reads even though the post was about 1 year old. So it is apt that we have a reboot version. Over the past 1 year, we have (surprise surprise!) visited more indoor playgrounds throughout Singapore. It will be our pleasure to give you an update on the new kids of the block !

READY, GET SET , GO!

Amazonia @ Great World City

The Brief
The first time we visited Amazonia, we were in awe of the jungle play gym. The sight of a 4 storey slide is utterly enticing. The climb up was a fun challenge and the way down was even more shiok. The toddler's play area was relatively big and 'enclose' away from the main play area ensuring younger tots have their share of fun.

What's Hot

• The best and highest slide in an indoor playground. Think Big Splash for the older generations who are reading this.
• Challenging vertical play structure.
• Jungle theme playground that takes the theme seriously.
• 3D Glow Golf and Space ball areas for kids and adults.

What's Not

• No Peak and off-peak price.
• Entrance fees at $33 per child age 3-12 is too much for a normal family outing.
• Other extras like Glow Golf and Space balls require additional fee.
