  1. Hello! dropping by from SG Parent Bloggers Circle! Just wanna share re Vivo's roof top water park. We were there recently and out of 5 kids, 3 ended up with scrapes and cuts on their feet. We dished out so many plasters that day it was unbelievable. The floor's a little sharpish under the water, so just keep a look out ya? Have a nice weekend!

    1. The last time we had been there was almost a year ago. So we are not sure on the opening status. Fret not as there are lots of parks out there to enjoy. Try katong park , there is a playground, a running track, an area for dogs and even remains of an old fort to see.
