Jacob Ballas Children’s Garden is Asia’s first children’s garden and is designed to provide unique discovery and learning experiences in a garden setting.

Through play and exploration, children can cultivate an appreciation for plants, nature and the environment. It meets the demands for nature education in an increasingly sophisticated tropical Garden City.
