Tokyo with 2yr old – must do’s

7 comments

1. I would suggest the [Yokohama Anpanman Museum](https://www.yokohama-anpanman.jp/en/), but only if they have some sort of affinity already for Anpanman.

2. What does your kid like? What time of year are you coming? Do you really want to be doing amusement park stuff every day? I’m sure at age 2 your kid will be happy to tag along with whatever you want to do and/or be happy going up and down an escalator for hours on end, not just going to “for kids” stuff.

3. Disneyland is super fun with a two year old. I know you said you’ve done touristy stuff in Tokyo before but wow, with a two year old it’s so great!!

   If teamlab borderless isn’t open yet and you do planets, be aware that there’s a big water section that I needed to carry my toddler over because she would’ve been swimming otherwise. This pissed her right away because she loves to swim and wanted to go in. 😅

4. Check out these websites for lots of baby/toddler friendly travel tips and restaurant recommendations. If you search the first few links below for the city name or neighborhood/area name you’ll find some great ideas and tips. Best to get your #1 thing to see/do done early in the day so anything else after that is just a bonus since it’s hard to know how the day will go with a baby/toddler.
