What are the best family entertainment centres in Tokyo? For a weekend outing, try Namja Town in Ikebukuro (children from ¥2,900 for the all-attractions passport), Tokyo Joypolis in Odaiba (preschoolers free), the Small Worlds miniature museum in Ariake, BIGFUN Heiwajima (trampolines, bowling and games under one roof) or a Round1 Spo-cha. For younger children, LEGOLAND Discovery Center, KidZania and Sanrio Puroland are worth booking ahead. Most use date-based pricing, so weekends cost more than weekdays.
