What are good things and good experiences? There are many characteristics such as having a story to tell, overflowing with the thoughts of the creator, having a history, and being loved by the locals. Have you ever come across a special thing or experience that made you want to tell someone about it? And as a result of telling, someone new leads to something. We think that's what "good" is all about. In order to deliver such encounters to our customers, we discover Hyogo's good things based on the concept of "talk, communicate, and connect", and provide information that will shorten the emotional distance between customers and the region of Hyogo Prefecture.

You can experience about 100 types of activities
exterior
Kidzania is a vocational and social experience facility for children aged 3 to 15. There are 26 facilities in 17 countries around the world, and 3 facilities in Japan: ``Kidzania Koshien'', ``Kidzania Tokyo'', and ``Kidzania Fukuoka''.

Cityscape of "Kidzania Koshien"
Kidzania Koshien has approximately 100 types of activities (jobs and services), and children can freely experience activities that interest them. Although there are some height restrictions for safety reasons, there are no gender or age restrictions.
The uniforms and equipment are authentic and will definitely increase your excitement! When you work, you will be paid in KidZania's exclusive currency called "KidZos". You can also use Kidzos to shop and receive services.
Additionally, if you deposit your money in Kidzania's bank, you will earn interest.
How to enjoy “Kidzania Koshien”?
Start with the reception
"Kidzania Koshien" has a rotating system for Part 1 (9:00-15:00) and Part 2 (16:00-21:00), and the doors open 30 minutes before business hours. After receiving admission, you will receive a JOB schedule card necessary for the experience and a traveler's check worth 50 kidzos.
city map
Next, look at the city map and check the location of the pavilion you want to experience. Please hand your JOB schedule card to the staff at each pavilion and check in. If you are unsure of what to do, you can consult the Job Consultation Center.
How to make pizza
There are also plenty of food-related activities such as sushi chefs and bakers. In "Pizza Shop" you can make pizza as a pizza chef. You can even try the pizza for yourself, which is made from rolled out dough and topped with toppings according to the menu and baked in the oven!

I also work at the "Food Development Center" to develop frozen foods.
">
"Kitchen Renovation Center"
At the "Kitchen Renovation Center," which debuted in December 2022, children act as kitchen planners and, after learning more about kitchen equipment, come up with a renovation plan that will be comfortable for customers.
">
"Packaging Lab"
At the Packaging Lab, which opened in 2023, you can experience the work of a package designer, who designs packages for new products that meet customer requests. In addition to learning how to make packages, you will develop your thinking and design skills to give form to your requests. You can take home the package you made.
There are many activities that you can experience, so we recommend researching which activities you would like to experience in advance by checking the information posted on the official website.

How do parents spend their time?
At Kidzania Koshien, parents can watch the activities through a glass or monitor.
Parents can board the plane as passengers
Parents can also enter some pavilions, such as the ``Court'' and ``Theatre,'' so they can enjoy the experience up close.
Parent lounge
We also recommend spending a relaxing time at the Parent Lounge, which has a drink bar (for a fee), or at the on-site restaurants.
Also, if everyone in your group is in first grade or above, parents can temporarily leave the venue, so it might be a good idea to enjoy shopping at LaLaport Koshien.
Strong support from supervisor
The staff who support the children's experiences at Kidzania are called "supervisors," and they interact with the children in the position of "slightly senior in the workplace," so they try to use polite language. Apparently there is.
Car life support center
Some parents may be worried about whether their child will be able to do it alone, but the experience of doing something away from their parents is sure to lead to their child's growth. Please send your children off with the mindset of ``Let cute children travel.''
"Kidzania Koshien" is a recommended spot for families
Securities company
I had a job like this! "Kidzania Koshien" has jobs that even adults will be surprised by. In a space where you can experience work in authentic-looking uniforms and with full-fledged equipment, there is a world beyond ``play house.'' By learning about jobs they didn't know about, children may discover new things they like.
Some people say, ``It was fun to experience work that I didn't know about before,'' so please try out various experiences.
