We have recently got back from Japan with 3 kids in tow (aged 7 - 13). Some tips we found:
- Try okonomyaki in Hiroshima
- Hiroshima museum was great for the kids
- Trains were fast, easy to navigate and efficient
- If you are getting JR rail passes, buy them in Australia
- If in Kyoto the Samurai sword show and dress-up was the highlight of the kids trip - cost Y380,000 for 5 but worth every cent
- Disneyland was good but absolutely packed (long lines) and most things in Japanese - better to go in the US
- The maid cafes in Akihabara are weird but hilarious
- Shibuya scramble crossing is a must see from Starbucks second floor
- Harajuku is interesting
