Nostalgic Playground Series: 5 (Ang Mo Kio)

I went to Ang Mo Kio (MRT NS16) and happened to know that at Block 570, Avenue 3, I can still find the oldest generation of the Dragon Playground.

I alighted at Ang Mo Kio MRT and walked about 15 minutes before I could reached Block 570. The Dragon playground still exist but they had changed the sands to the rubber floor tile.

This Dragon playground is the longer version compared to the MacPherson Estate which is the smaller version. The paint had faded off and some part of the playground are rusty. Seem like they did not maintain the playground for quite sometime.

I guess people intend to forget that we used to play this nostalgic playground which brings us back the good memories.

If anyone of you know any of the old playground with sands or changed to rubber floor tile in any part of Singapore, please inform me and I'm gladly to feature it!

Thank you. =)




























Nostalgic Playground Series: 4 (Bishan)

Tick Tock, I am Little Cuckoo Clock... I am sure many of you had heard this rhythmic when you are young back then.

Do you know that in Bishan NS17/CC15, you actually can find the old Clock playground which is still exist! The old clock playground is located at Block 514C Bishan Street 13 which is beside the Bus terminus and near to the entrance of the Circle line.

In the past, this clock playground seem to be popular and crowded as children are playing and running around. Beside the playground, there's used to have McDonald restaurant. But now, it look totally abandoned, rusty and the McDonald restaurant had closed down and the premise turn into coffee shop.

It will be pity if the clock playground demolish in the future! We should preserve our playground historical as it bring us back many memories especially for me!

I could remembered, I used to stay at my aunt place when I was young. I asked my aunt to take photo for me at the clock playground and I wore her sun glasses! It look kinda silly but it was fun back then! I think I should find the old photograph and posted it here as a proof! Ha Ha..
