  • T i p ! Wondering how to enjoy the amazing temples and shrines in Kyoto with a baby or kids in tow? Make sure you get my guide! This photo was one of my favourites from one of our recent trips to Kyoto during the cherry blossom season. It was even more beautiful than I imagined. And it IS possible to enjoy with children too! My biggest advice is to plan in advance and have the information you need to ensure you enjoy this beautiful historical location with the least stress and the most fun 🍼🌸🍼🌸 Note! Do you plan to visit next year for the cherry blossom season? The cherry blossoms bloom from the south to the north of Japan, so you can see them in early March in Kyushu, mid-late March in Kyoto and Tokyo, and mid-late April in Hokkaido. So if you want to see them in Kyoto make sure you book your flights for mid-late March! 🌸⛩🌸⛩ And if you will be visiting with your baby or young children, make sure you are well prepared and get my guide! I created the guide after endless hours of research and my personal discoveries with my babies. I have lived in Japan for over 15 years and have made LOTS of mistakes along the way with navigating and locations. Especially with my baby and stroller in tow! Make sure you don’t make the same mistakes as I have and get my guide - it contains all the top baby-friendly locations to ensure you enjoy Japan with your baby with the least stress and the most fun:) Click on the link in my bio to learn more! 🎏📚🎏📚 . . . #cherryblossoms #sakura #japan #tokyo #kyoto #beautiful #flowers #japanguide #japanwithkids #babytravel #japantravel #tokyoguide #kyotoguide #tokyowithkids #traveltips #familyadventures #lifeinjapan #tokyoolympics #kyotowithkids #babyjapan #garden #japanesegarden #pagoda #kyotogarden #templegarden
  • Hooray! Finally made it to Sanrio Puroland! Can’t believe I’ve lived in Japan for 15 years and this was my first time😜We had a fantastic time 🎊 My top 10 tips for enjoying this wonderful Hello Kitty land with your baby is now up on the blog! If you are planning to visit Sanrio Puroland with your baby or young children, make sure you click on the link in my bio and scroll down to see the blog post, photos and video of all the fun! 🌸🌸🌸 If you are planning to spend a few days in Tokyo make sure you get my Tokyo Guide! It includes the top 10 baby-friendly locations in Tokyo including Ginza, Shibuya, Shinjuku, Roppongi, Daikanyama, Jiyugaoka, Futako Tamagawa and much more! www.tokyourbanbaby.com . . . #sanriopuroland #hellokitty #tokyo #tokyolife #tokyotravel #cinnamoroll #tokyoguide #travel #travelguide #traveltips #japanguide #japantrip #japantravel #familytravel #traveladventure #kidstravel #citylife #tokyolifestyle #tokyoolympics #visitjapan #visittokyo #japantour #tokyowithkids #babytravel #strollertravel #sanrio #sanriojapan #hellosanrio #tokyourbanbaby
  • Did you know Japan has some of the most diverse species of hydrangeas? When hydrangeas bloom in Japan it is said to be the sign of the start of the rainy season. Next week is the last week of May and then it will be June! June is the time when it often rains especially in the afternoon, so if you are visiting this rainy season make sure you pack lots of cute gumboots and raincoats! If you don’t have any, don’t worry - Japan has copious amounts of super cute and adorable rainwear for babies, kids and mummies. Come with an empty suitcase and it will leave you space for all your cute finds to take home! 🍼🎀🌸 . If you are visiting Japan with your baby and you are wondering what to bring with you, as well as how to navigate this amazing place with your baby and stroller in tow, make sure you buy my guide! Click on the link in my bio to learn more! ⭐️ . . #tokyo #hydrangea #hydrangeas #japan #tokyoguide #tokyotravel #japanguide #japantravel #tokyolife #visitjapan #visittokyo #travel #traveltips #flowers #lifeinjapan #lifeintokyo #japanseason #japantour #guidebook #travelguide #babytravel #familytravel #purple #rainyseason
  • I always love how Harajuku Station has kept its old traditional station building, in complete contrast to the youth culture and high fashion that surrounds it. It was originally built in 1906 and perhaps more compliments the Meiji Shrine on the other side! However I just read that they are planning to rebuild/expand Harajuku Station in preparation for the Tokyo Olympics to handle all the crowds? I hope they still keep some of this lovely original building! . . 🌸⛩🌸 Are you planning to visit Harajuku with your baby and wondering how to enjoy this super popular location with your baby? Let me show you how! Harajuku is one of the Top 10 baby-friendly locations in my Tokyo Guide ebook, including baby-friendly restaurants, baby nursing rooms, Japanese baby and kids fashion shops, secret rooftop gardens where your toddler can play, elevators to get around with a stroller, and much more. Click on the link in my bio and click on "Tokyo Guide" for to learn more! . . . #harajuku #harajukustation #meijishrine #tokyo #tokyoguide #tokyotravel #babytravel #lifeintokyo #familytravel #citylife #cityview #citylifestyle #japan #travelbook #traveltips #travel #japantravel #japanguide #japantour #toddler #toddlertravel #citykids #tokyourbanbaby #tokyoolympics #japanlife

  • Here is my Tokyo Guide ebook! You can download it to your PC, tablet and smartphone. I have been living in Japan for 15 years and I started Tokyo Urban Baby in Jan 2012 after my first baby was born. Although I had lived in Japan for a long time, it was completely different with a baby! I didn't know how to get around with a stroller, where all the baby-friendly cafes were, where to buy diapers and baby food, where to feed my baby. The list is endless! 🤱🎏🎀 After doing countless hours of research, as well as finding awesome hidden baby places while wandering the streets of Tokyo (plus lots of mistakes on the way!) I created The Tokyo Guide ebook so I can share all my favourite baby-friendly places with other parents who are traveling here and want to enjoy their trip with the least stress and the most fun 🍼🌸🍼🌸 Since then parents from around the world have bought my ebook and they have had so much fun that some even decide to return to Tokyo again for another holiday (usually with more babies! Haha). It includes my unique interactive map and video tutorials, as well as lifetime membership for as long as the Tokyo Guide exists. This means you get FREE updates to your ebook every time I release new editions. ⭐️ As you know Tokyo is constantly changing and new cafes and shops are popping up, so this means you will always have the latest information! You can buy my ebook through my website Tokyo Urban Baby (click on the link in my bio) and if you have any questions please let me know! xoxo Kate 😘P.S. As an extra bonus, my new online Kyoto Guide is also included! . . . #tokyoguide #tokyo #tokyotravel #tokyowithkids #tokyobaby #travel #traveltips #lifeinjapan #familytravel #japanguide #japantravel #lovejapan #japan #travelguide #babytravel #travelwithkids #kyoto #kyotowithkids #kyotoguide #tokyoolympics #japan #lovejapan #tokyourbanbaby
  • Beautiful! If you’re in Japan in Spring make sure you visit the flower festivals and parks with seasonal gardens such as this rose garden. Your baby can enjoy playing on the grass while mummy enjoys looking at the gorgeous flowers! Right now roses and peonies are blooming, which you can also see at all the flower shops around Tokyo. Wonderful time of year 🌸 I actually bought some peonies as my mum is visiting from Australia, but they wilted by the next day! My mum said not too worry, simply cut off the stems and pop them in some sunlight and they’ll come back. And you know what? They did! I seemed to have forgotten these tricks:) I think I need to buy flowers more often😊 🌸🌸🌸 . . . #flowers #roses #rosegarden #tokyo #tokyospring #springinjapan #tokyoguide #tokyotravel #flowergarden #flowerfestival #pinkflowers #japanguide #japantravel #traveltips #travelwithkids #tokyourbanbaby #japan
  • Love this cafe in Shimokitazawa. It has outdoor terrace seating, perfect to enjoy this spring weather with your baby! The terrace is on ground level, so it’s very easy to take a seat and keep your stroller with you. Just 1 stop from Shibuya on the express line, Shimokitazawa is full of tiny back streets and lots of cute cafes. I'm currently writing my new post "Shimokitazawa with a baby" on the blog including baby-friendly cafes and where to change diapers, so make sure you check it out! 🌸🌸🌸 And for all my tips and advice for enjoying Tokyo and Kyoto with a baby, make sure you buy my guide! It’s packed with all the essentials to ensure you enjoy Japan with your baby with the least stress and the most fun.
