What is Nature Play?

Nature Play West

In conjunction with Chapter Zero Singapore, Nature Play is an adult-accompanied child-led time. Children choose what they see, how they move and what they do in the natural environment. Come join us for some fresh air and green grass, and enjoy observing the marvels of childhood in the natural world.

Who is Chapter Zero?

Chapter Zero Singapore is a social enterprise which supports parents of young children in respectful/mindful and evidence-based parenting. They run workshops for parents and alternative caregivers as well as playgroups for infants and toddlers. As huge advocates of child-directed play, they run Pop-Up Adventure Playgrounds in Singapore for children of all ages.

Where and When?

Nature Play West meets every Friday morning @ 9.15am. See the Facebook Page for more updates!

The meeting point is at the Dairy Farm Nature Park’s CAR PARK A, met by the grassy bank at the side nearest to The Salvation Army - Praisehaven Mega Family Thrift Store.

Why should you consider going?

I have not been myself (due to the time and distance) but it seems to be a good opportunity for the Kids to go out and "get dirty", and also for Parents to enjoy being outdoors.

Also, I am keen on the idea of Child-led time and allowing the LOs to explore the surrounding on their own. Something that might be easier to accomplish when with like-minded Parents.

Their website provides much more info including directions to get there, links and guidelines. See here for more details.

and if the West side is not convenient, see here for the Nature Play @ Tampines Eco Green
