Taman Rekreasi Jubli (Seria)
Venue Type: Outdoor playground (and running/walking track around a lake). Description: In Seria (50 minutes from Bandar), this is a simple park with BBQ facilities, a playground and a nice view overlooking Anduki Lake. Toilet facilities are well-maintained. Local monkeys cruise through, but generally keep their distance. There is a walking/jogging track (suitable for prams/pushchairs) around Anduki Lake that features an arch bridge to get you across part of the water. Location: Jalan Tengah, http://goo.gl/maps/Sw39Y Serves Food?: No Entry Fee: N/A Jerudong Park Playground
Venue Type: Theme Park. Description: The Sultan’s famous theme park is being slowly renovated. Now only one tenth its former size, plans are apparently afoot to restore it to a semblance of its former glory. Featuring a carousel, pedal boats, bumper cars, mini-golf, a ferris wheel, a huge outdoor playground, a train, a mini piate ship and more…this place sounds promising… Its usefulness is somewhat sabotaged by the heat which limits the times young ones can be taken there. 4pm onwards is manageable (and there is a 30 minute window of “downtime” around 6pm for cultural reasons); Depending on your household bedtime(s), this may not leave much time to take advantage of all the facilities. Location: Jerudong Park Playground, Jerudong. http://goo.gl/maps/jtSC6 Admission fee: $50 for a family of four (unlimited rides). Serves Food?: Lots…there’s a Burger King, KFC and assorted other stalls that sell food for about $5 per meal. Nearby Facilities: Jerudong Park Playground, Polo Club, Tarindak Restaurant. Oil and Gas Discovery Centre
Venue Type: Science Education Centre. Description: A brilliant venue with interactive displays, kinaesthetic activities and all-round educational stimulation. This place kept our four year old and 2 year old enthralled for an hour and a half… Kids can swing off geological bilge pumps, throw golf balls down portals to demonsrate the physics of a black hole and pull levers to compare the viscosity of different fluids…all good stuff! From April 2014 (until ???) there is a fantastic exhibit called “Playing with Light”. Our kids didn’t want to leave; They could build telescopes, “paint” in projected colour, run through a laser obstacle course, use a photosensitive wall, “mix” light displays…etc…all amazing things for little people. The complex also has an outdoor playground, restaurant, skate park, fish-feeding pond, miniature village, pedal car race track and more… Location: Spg 22, Seria http://goo.gl/maps/HyVMl Entry Fee: Adults – $5, Children – $2, Children under 5 y/o – no charge.

Taman Peranginan Pantai Lumut
Venue type: Outdoor playground and park. Description: Nice park near Seria next to Pantai (Beach) Lumut. With a playground, BBQ facilities and well-maintained toilets, this is a useful little place to take kids. It is literally a 2 minute drive from Liang Lumut Recreation Centre (the small water park), so it’s worth popping in to if you’re nearby. The park is very clean because it is looked after by keen workers who always seem to be attending to some aspect of the place. Our kids love climbing over the stone “witches cave”. Location: http://goo.gl/maps/wZUi8 Admission: N/a Serves food?: No. Fratini’s Pizza Making

Liang Lumut Recreation Club (Small Waterpark).
Venue type: Small outdoor water park. Description: About 45 minutes from Bandar, this is a fun and safe water park. Slides, shallow pools and jetstreams of water ensure that kids are entertained. Beautifully set across from a beach overlooking the Seria Port, this is a nice place to go for a day out. Location: Jalan Pantai Perkelahan, Mukim Liang http://goo.gl/maps/t3GLQ Admission fee: $2 per child, $3 per adult. $8 for a family of four (2 adults, 2 children) Serves Food: A small restaurant serves meals priced $7-$10. Nearby facilities: Oil and Gas Discovery Centre, Taman Peranginan Pantai Lumut , Panaga Club, Taman Rekreasi Jubli Other info: The park closes “if there is rain” (precaution against lightning strikes)…so check the weather.
