With locations in Tokyo, Fukuoka, and Hyogo, KidZania is the perfect destination to spark your child's imagination, introduce them to real-world professions, and spend quality family time together.
Designed as an interactive city where kids lead the way, KidZania combines entertainment with experiential learning. Get ready to learn why this unique attraction is a must-visit for families seeking memorable adventures.
What Is KidZania?
KidZania is more than just a theme park; it's a miniature city run by kids aged 3-15. Imagine a world where children play the roles of firefighters, dentists, chefs, and pilots. With over 100 activities, state-of-the-art tools, and realistic job environments, kids get to explore different professions in a fun and immersive way.
Each KidZania city is meticulously designed—with its own currency (kidZos), buildings, and vehicles—to help kids understand how society functions. It’s a place where learning meets play, giving your little ones a sense of independence while they explore their favorite careers. Whether it’s making pizza in the cooking studio or flying a plane in the cockpit, there’s something here for every child.
Perfect Activities for Every Age
KidZania caters to children of different ages, offering tailored experiences to suit various age groups.
3–6 Years Old
Activities for younger kids encourage foundational skills such as teamwork and motor coordination. Little ones can try their hand at being a pizza chef or patissier, where they’ll be guided through making (and eating!) their own tasty creations.
7–10 Years Old
This age group thrives on a mix of fun and critical thinking. At KidZania Tokyo, they can train to be police officers, investigate mysteries as reporters, or even work as service staff at a gas station. These roles not only entertain but also teach essential skills like communication and problem-solving.
11–15 Years Old
For tweens and teens, KidZania offers a taste of independence. They can take on challenging jobs like being a surgeon in a hospital, piloting an airplane, or conducting experiments as food developers. These activities nurture leadership skills, preparing them for the real world.
No matter their age, you'll see their faces light up with pride as they experience the joy of completing tasks and earning kidZos as “payment.”
Why Experiential Learning Matters
KidZania isn't just about fun—it's also a place where kids can learn through doing, which is one of the most effective ways to gain knowledge.
Boosts Confidence: Performing tasks independently gives kids a sense of achievement.
Promotes Teamwork: Many jobs require collaboration, teaching children the importance of working together.
Encourages Problem-Solving: From managing time to completing tasks, kids develop real-world skills.
Fosters Creativity: Kids are encouraged to think outside the box, whether they’re acting as courtroom judges or creating their own desserts.
At its heart, KidZania inspires kids to discover their potential in a way that’s engaging, memorable, and packed with skills they’ll carry for life.
