Visiting Kidzania in Tokyo, Japan!

One of the things in our itinerary for the Yakult Japan Journalist Tour 2015 was a trip to Kidzania Tokyo (they pronounce it Kid-za-nia, a as in apple). You guessed it, it's because Yakult has a stall there.

We went to Kidzania on a Wednesday (it was May 27, 2015). Every Wednesday is English Wednesday in Kidzania Tokyo. Everyone is encouraged to speak English and this is the day when there are 30 activities conducted in English. Most of the time, almost everything is in Japanese. So if you're a non Japanese-speaking tourist or foreigner, Wednesday is the perfect day for you to visit.

We were all given Kidzania Tourist Passes. How I wish I was still young enough to try out the activities, lol. Anyhow only kids aged 3-15 years old can participate. I was there merely to observe.

Look who welcomed me to Kidzania Tokyo! Anyhow, Kidzania Tokyo has 2 shifts: 9am to 3pm and 4pm to 9pm. There's a one hour break in between shifts.

Okay so the first stall I saw shortly after setting foot in Kidzania was the Shiseido boutique. Read more »
