Part of our Things to Do with Kids in Tokyo series. Prices last checked: November 2026.
Where can kids do adventurous activities indoors in Tokyo? For jumping and climbing, book Tondemi Heiwajima (a trampoline and athletic park) online. For climbing, many bouldering gyms have kids’ walls and family sessions; book a beginner session through the gym or Asoview. In winter, Meiji Jingu Gaien Ice Skating Rink is open year-round and takes walk-ins (about ¥1,000 for children plus ¥600 skate rental, reported). Round1 Spo-cha combines trampolines, ball sports and roller skating on one ticket.
Here’s how to book each type of activity.
