How could we the fans of gardens miss out on their Children's Festival? I did not intend to visit it so many times but we made a total of 3 trips to finish the attractions we wanted to visit. Talk about hardcore and the toddler is increasingly unwilling when it comes to posing for photos.


Children's Festival had Enid Blyton as the focus, bringing across her classics in different arenas and there were a combination of complimentary and paid attractions.



Shimmery Wonders was one of the free attractions where we got to enter a room similar to Trick Eye Museum.





Asshole parenting in progress.


The other room had kaleidescopes and lights.





Which then prompted me to get tickets for the other attractions as well. Being a friend of the Gardens scored us $2 off the $12 price tag.



There was an open area with inflatables strewn and a couple of see-saws...





:) These bright smiles always make these outings so worth while.







He squealed excitedly and ran towards 'melon' and started jumping happily.





Us on a lollipop.



Even the toadstools were inviting.




Candy Party was hollering at us since it was just right smack next to the inflatables.





Turns out we had to find the blue foam to redeem for a shot at the gacha gacha machine!







Momma seems to be more excited actually.





Into the enchanting world of mirrors and dressing up as a wizard!





 



   

 Mascot sighting was also a highlight and this scaredy cat was only interested in chasing them and not posing with them.

   

 The roving balloonist however, was his favourite! Here's him and his banana balloon.

   
Toy Fort somehow had the most number of people queueing all the time. We returned twice just to complete this! And it was just a shooting game with balls. Talk about over anticipation.


 

The sweaty boys.

All in this was cheap fun and worth three weekends worth - so there! I'm a fan.
