Participating in Interactive Exhibits
Preschoolers can experience the interactive exhibits with support from a parent or guardian.
However, people under a certain height, such as small children, may have trouble enjoying the experiences as intended. This may vary depending on the interactive exhibit, so speak to a nearby attendant for assistance.
Play tickets are not issued to preschoolers. Instead, preschoolers aged 3 or above will be given a special experience card by an attendant at the security gate. If a parent or guardian experiences an interactive exhibit together with their child, even if it's just to accompany them, the specified number of coins for the experience will be deducted from the parent or guardian's play ticket. Thank you for understanding.
