Neighbourhood playgrounds typically consist of the play equipment such as slides, climbing frames and teeter-totters. However, there are some places where you can find neighbourhood water playgrounds – wet areas where kids can have splashing fun without having to venture too far away from home.
Here are three neighbourhood water parks in Singapore, perfect for enjoying a soak on those blazing hot days in the tropics.

Choa Chu Kang Transport-themed Water Play Area
Located under the shelter of the MRT train tracks, beside the Keat Hong Community Club and a stone’s throw from Choa Chu Kang MRT and Lot One (which also has a water playground) is a mini water play area. This transport-themed water play area has a centrepiece which incorporates a VW van and old-style steam locomotive into its design.
Kids can also play at a fountain designed to look like a fuel pump. The water play area operates from 10 am to 2 pm, 4 pm to 8 pm.
