Bumboat - Mosaic Playgrounds of Singapore


So I hinted earlier about a bumboat and here it is, in all it's mosaic glory. Okay i'll admit the bumboat was one of my least favourite playgrounds, lacking the cuteness I suppose, but it's a nice reflection of Singapore's past. A bumboat from what I can gather acted like a convienance store on water, travelling along Singapore's river - you can still take a tour on one, today but I digress!

(Still geeking out!)

This particular playground is located at Pasir Ris and is about a km or so from the station :)

The cool thing about this one was it still had it's sand base, a big detail for us playground nerds because when the strict safety laws came in, sandpits were deemed unsafe and replaced with rubber flooring. I also appreciated the cute blue mosaic border around the pit too...it's the small details guys!
