Tokyo proved to be a wonderful place to visit with children and an experience Akka was talking about for months after. So again we took the same route in Below we highlight our experiences in Tokyo and how we helped our children to explore and engage with a new place and culture.

Part of that stems from their enthusiasm about the destination. We encourage the enthusiasm through plenty of pre-travel discussion and engagement. Before going to Tokyo, we helped generate excitement in the following ways: We have had many occasions to visit the Japanese House at Boston Children's Museum.

Revisiting and discussing the home and how people in Japan live differently from us proved a great way to pique their interest in a trip to Tokyo. Sushi happens to be a favorite food of both children. Talking about sushi as one type of Japanese cuisine they would enjoy while in Tokyo had them jumping up and down with excitement. We took the disposable chopsticks helpers she was given at the restaurant to bring with us to Japan.

You can also buy chopsticks helpers online. While researching travel in Tokyo with kids, we found Best Living Japan , a useful English-language blog and resource for families with weekly events listings and recommendations in Tokyo. We subscribed to the newsletter to learn more about family friendly activities in Tokyo so we could tell the children what to expect, e.

We also bought relevant children's books to enjoy before, during and after our travel. Wabi Sabi , reviewed here by the NYTimes is beautiful, artistic and wonderfully written with haiku. It is not about Tokyo or Japan but rather about a Japanese concept and was our children's favorite of the Japan books we bought. I Live in Tokyo is about Tokyo specifically and through the eyes of seven-year-old child.

While it was a little old for our children, we like that it is something they will be able to grow into and that we can use to continue to teach them about Japan. Tokyo Friends was more age appropriate and our children could relate to the story as it centers around an American child engaging with Japanese children. Another important preparation for Malli was how we would manage his dairy and peanut allergies.

Our Japanese language skills are limited, so we printed the "fill-in-the-blank" card from JustHungry. We asked our hotel concierge to write down his allergens and the cards worked like a charm everywhere we ate. We also requested allergen-free meals from JAL for the flights. They normally need 96 hours notice, but when we had to reschedule our flight last minute due to illness, they went to extra lengths to ensure that Malli's allergen free meals and snacks would arrive from Tokyo in time.

A Japanese friend assured us we would be happy in any neighborhood. We consulted our favorite hotel website Tablet and ended up at The Park Hotel in Tokyo's Shiodome district, a moderately priced but artistic hotel with good views. It is conveniently located 10 minutes from Tokyo Station where the Narita Express train from the airport arrives. On our second visit to Tokyo, the room size we needed was not available at the The Park Hotel so we booked a room at the neighboring Royal Park Shiodome that we read about on Travel for Kids.

The buffet was a bit nicer at The Park Hotel. Although Shiodome is a business district, it is actually an ideal location for a family visiting the city. It is walking distance to the famous Tsukiji Fish Market, at least until the market is moved from its current historic location. The area is proximate to Tokyo Station, and both hotels where we stayed are walking distance to Shimbashi Station.

Additionally, ferries along the Sumida River are accessible via the historic Hama-rikyu Gardens. It is always fresh and madeto order. Hibachi dishes are fun to watch and full of flavor.
