Traveling to Tokyo in December with my 4 years old and this vlog is really helpful! Thank you for posting this!

[@HangryByNature]

Thanks so much for watching! You're gonna have an amazing time in Tokyo with your 4-year old. Soooo many things to do!

[@nickandhelmi]

Crabby Tina looks so cool! I think Andy and I have same lingo GG👍🏻We love Don Quijote, spent few hours usually hahaa

[@HangryByNature]

Haha I've adopted some geek language from Andy as well. I wish our discount stores in Australia were half as good!

[@nickandhelmi]

Damn I need that cutie cat music stuff. Did u buy the skeleton 🤣 Not only kids would run around in electronic dept store, i will too haha.. Yup if u go to robot restaurant, it was like WTH did i watch #personalexperience

[@HangryByNature]

Haha they have the most random cool things in Japan. Haha nah but he makes a good prop for when we do dialogue. Should've bought him, ey? It was between Robot Restaurant and DisneySea.. we opted for Disneyyyy!

[@PuriandSue]

Nyan nyan song!! Can't help but to notice it, too cute haha!

[@HangryByNature]

Haha that's what it's called.. the nyan cat!

[@TheBlacktulips]

Been to Tokyo twice and staying in Shinjuku everytime but only been to 3 out of top 10. This gives me ideas.

[@HangryByNature]

Def keep it in mind for your next trip! Thanks for watching!

[@TheWorldnUs]

We squeezed in the Fire Station in our last trip. Great spot for the kids! We missed that playground though and the Robot Restaurant just seemed a bit overpriced for us. The Metropolitan Building is a must! We’ve been there both times we visited Tokyo.

[@HangryByNature]

Fire Station is awesome cos it's free! Yeah, for us it was between DisneySea or Robot Restaurant.. I think we all agreed that DisneySea is money better spent!

[@PuriandSue]

Ohhhh that Godzilla statue is real!! Love the effect 😆

[@PeterandYen]

😂 the meow meow meow song was 🔥🔥🔥 this place is literally one massive playground for your kids and for you and Andy too 😁👍 get a kitchen brush n a skeleton while you're at it. Weird restaurants r the coolest but 80 is RIP

[@HangryByNature]

Haha man, I love the variety stores in Japan. So much random stuff to be found that makes you think... who the heck thinks of this stuff?

[@KevinVChannel]

Those are awesome locations for kiddos and kiddos alike. Great presentation my friend!

[@HangryByNature]

Thank you kindly for watching :)

[@linnyunt]

Shinjuku is so much fun. I didn't realise there were so many options for kids. I still haven't seen that Godzilla in person.

[@PuriandSue]

Oh my the robot restaurant is expensive! I'll go for the next at tokyo metropolitan since it's free 😆

[@HangryByNature]

Haha I know, right? It's the same price as going to Disneyland or Universal.

[@SantosChronicles]

It is great to see another family travel vlog. Travel with kids really changes thing. That Fire Museum is really cool and free also helps. You guys found Godzilla. Love how your channel is so informative and gives a preview of all these great places. Samurai culture is so intriguing. I even bought a book about the code of the samurai. Cat music 🤣🤣🤣. Serious skills there. The kid backpack is a must!!! Electronic store might be more for me rather than the kids. Our kids love stopping at play grounds also. Thank you for sharing and have a great weekend.

[@HangryByNature]

Thanks SO much for your kind words! Man, the history of samurai and how they live is super intriguing!

[@ImmortalDynastyTarot]

🎉😢 so cool

[@AnSEpisodes]

Lots of Kids activities in Harajuku itself...nice! Tokyo Museum seems sooo fun! thousands toys from Japan...lock it for sure! ^^ you guys did great on that megastore pram challenge ^^ and yes we bought lots of Kit Kat flavors when we're in Japan too...sweet potato flavor seems yum! ^^ awesome sharing guys! ^^

[@HangryByNature]

Hahah I don't think Andy even made it inside the store properly with the pram. He did eventually get up to level 1, so fair effort. Kit Kats, Pocky and mochi is allll the stuff we stock up on in Japan. So good!

[@malcolmdeare9338]

We went to Tokyo Toy Museum on a Saturday. All the locals were there, the outside area had everything setup, pits full of wood shavings and large toys. Then out the front they had clowns and performances. Highly recommend on a Saturday.

[@HangryByNature]

Thanks for sharing Malcolm!

[@PuriandSue]

Yummmsss the sushis! ❤️❤️

[@HangryByNature]

So friggin amazing!

[@catherinema7047]

Thanks for your video. This really helps me plan for our trip next year. Any idea where is the Pokémon cafe?

[@HangryByNature]

There is one in Osaka and one in Tokyo. You need to book well in advance online or you won’t get a spot

[@PuriandSue]

Sweet potato KitKat 😍

[@AlwaysAnAdventureWithKids]

Did you guys make it to Disney?

[@HangryByNature]

We did Disneyland Tokyo on our trip to Japan last year which we covered in one of our 2018 Japan videos. This year was all about DisneySea :D

[@OkiDingo]

Robot Restaurant is no more unfortunately.

[@cmaxxx]

Robot Restaurant is kid friendly yes, but it should also be noted that it used to be more adult-oriented. When I went a couple years ago I noticed a lot of the promotional material at the venue featured sexy scantly clad bouncy models, etc. The show itself has become very much PG rated due to the overwhelming popularity the show has seen in recent years with tourists. They made the show more accessible to a wider audience so the show itself should be fine for older kids. It's also situated in the middle of Tokyo's red light district. There are nightclub scams in that area that target foreigners, I would just avoid shopping or eating in that immediate area unless you know your way around. Should be relatively safe during the day..

[@HangryByNature]

Thanks for the tips. Due to covid Robot Restaurant is no more.

[@cmaxxx]

@@HangryByNature oh wow really? I’m sorry to hear that. I actually really enjoyed the show when I went, it was truly one of a kind.
