Fun at KidZania Koshien

This spring holiday we took the kids to Kidzania Koshien in Hyogo prefecture (next to Osaka).

At Kidzania kids can get to role play as adults and experience at many different kinds of jobs and activities.

Water pipe engineering at Kidzania

Same as when you are traveling, if you plan more before your visit, the better. Upon entering KidZania better to choose which job you want to experience.

After kids finish their job at Kizania, they get paid in Kizania currency called "kidZos". Use kidZos to shop and pay for services. My kids used kidzo to experience at the ice cream shop.

Sushi making activities at restaurant "Sato" is very popular.

If your kids want to experience making sushi, I recommend you to enter Kidzania as early as possible and go directory to Sato and book a slot.

Booking the ticket can be done online and although most activities are conducted in Japanese, some are conducted in English every day.

Seems like more English activities are available on Wednesday (second shift 16:00-21:00).
