Amongst the fun activities on offer are the 3 structures resembling trees from which water squirts out in different forms.  Kids will love the squirts, jets, and most of all, the tipping buckets, all of which come through a single source of water. Amongst these, the largest structure is the 10-metre-tall tower, which features a raised platform onto which a huge volume of water is dropped at regular intervals. And if that wasn’t enough, there are also water cannons, which kids can turn and twist as they please to declare war on each other! (the fun way of course)
