"... there is much the Republic (Singapore) is doing right and much the rest of the world can envy, but the country is falling down in one key area - it is not think small enough... Child-sized, to be precise, because cities must first be livable for children before they can be livable for all, says urban planning consultant Suzanne Crowhurst Lennard, who was here recently for the World Cities Summit."

Yes, that is because we should have some fun places to relive our stress . Then we would be more relaxed an not so stressed .
1)More amusement parks.
2)School should be a bit later so that we wll have enough sleep so that we be more energetic
3)they should ban smoking and drugs
It is better to have special areas as it is safer.
1.More amusement parks
2.More playgrounds
3.Less rules
I think that there should be certian places where chiildren can play.They may injure themselves if they play too roughly. :)
yes,so it would be safer for children.There should be less bullies , kidnappers and pickpockets.
no,children might fall down and may get hurt.
A special area is where children should play as it is safer and less accidents will happen.

I think it is better if the place is child proof.
there should be a special area specially for children and adults to relieve their stress in their work to enjoy their lifes better and with no stress around them
There should be special areas for children to play in, instead of playgrounds outside as it is dangerous to play on road side.
The crime rate should be lowered.
The environment should be socially friendly.
I think there should be more places that children enjoy and the playgroud must not hard and brittle so that they do not get hurt
i think there should be differernt places that childrens will enjoy.
examble:more amusment parks,play grounds and fun fairs.
it would be safer for them and they would not get hurt from the playgrounds and they would still enjoy themselves even if they get hurt.
No.it is better to have a place for children to play. No buulies no burgelers and no murderers.
I think Singapore should have special areas for children to play. It is much more safer.
1. More parks. 2. More playgrounds. 3. Less rules.
The city should not be a playground
because the kids might wander everywhere and be lost. However the special areas provided should be big and good.
1)ensure that there are less bullies.
2)There should be fun places to play
3)Ensure that crime rates are low

A special area is where children should play as it is safer and less accidents will happen.there should be more amusment park, playgrounds and fun fairs that produce super di duper big candy flosses.and too also a dozen candy floss stalls
1)I think we should have more playgrounds 2)There should be more be more amusment parks 3)there should be more arcades
i THINK SINGAPORE SHOULD BE A PLAYGROUND, AS IT WILL BE SAFE AND MORE FUN.
I think Singapore can become more fun and enjoyable for children. Singapore should have more playgrounds,amusement parks and more attraccting places for children travelling from overseas with their parents to enjoy. This will also increase the number of tourist coming to Singapore.Children can unwind stress there and to relax more. Parents must also make sure the safety of their children as they usually stress them up by giving too much work or punishing them heavily. There also should be lesser problems in schools like theft,bullying and vandalism.
There should be special places for children to enjoy themselves.It would be quite impossible to turn the whole city into a playground.
1)There should be more playgrounds.2)There should be more amusment parks.3)There should be more arcades.
it is better to have special areas for kids to play in as it is safer for the kids and so the city won't be a complete mad place where children are climbing , jumping and running everywhere.
1)More playgrounds.
2)Less homework,so we do not have to stay up so late and the next day we have not enough sleep.
3)Band drugs and smoking.
I think a city should be a playground as children will be able to walk about freely and by themselves at a young age and nott have to go everywhere with their parents going with them.
1) More adventure camps in school.
2) Less people jaywalking.
3) Less boring adult stuff.
I think Singapore can be a playground as children will have more fun and will ask thier relatives or friends to go to that certain place.we can have more parks, playgrounds, amusement park and other fun things that children likes. Tourist from other countries can bring thier children there to play. Parents may also get rid of stress by seeing the sights or anything else. The children of the tourist may tell thier other friends and the friends may tell thier parents and maybe the parent will take them to Singapore. Then singapore will have more tourist
1)Ensure that there are less bullies
2)there should be more fun places to play.
3)ensure that crime rates are low.
I think that there must be special places for children to play in because if they play amd play they will forget their way home so i think it is more safer to have specials areas for chilren to play in.......
1)there must be more playground.
2)there must be more ammusement parks for kids to play in others also can enjoy too.
3)from this point there is less cimes , bulling , murderinds so there must be no cimes at all for that the chilren can led a happy life.
I think it is better to have a special areas where children can play.So it is safer for children to play. 1:Lesser bullies in Singapore! 2 :More playgrounds in Singapore!3:Parents that are too fierce
I think children should play in special areas because if they play in the city on the road, they may be knocked down by an in-coming car.
Singapore can be a better place for children if...
1] more playgrounds
2] more arkste games
3] less bullies
itis better to have special areas because it is dangerous for young children to play by themselves and for them to walk themselves.
I think Singapore should not be a playground because it wil be safer if there are special places for children to play.If The city becomes a playground,children would be runing around every where but if there are special places children would only play in the cirten place and not run around everywhere.Thus, i really think that there should be special places fo children to play.
I think Singapore is better to have special areas where children can play because then it will not be so those who do not want to play can don't go to the area and for those who wat to,can go.
1.make playground bigger
2.more amusement park
3.and also make some garden or park near houses
It is better to havec special areas.It is more safer ,and children will be running everywhere ,more injuries will occur and the whole city would be messy.Instead of having all this problems ,we can just have speacial areas.
1)Singapore should have more amusemant parks
2)more playgrounds
3)and speak less singlish
no,because if children do not know how to go home,they will be lost
