About This Site

Kids Web Japan is a website that introduces Japan to schoolchildren aged between 10 and 14 who live in other countries. We would be delighted if this site was used as a supplementary source of information for school lessons on Japan or by families to learn about Japan together. (But please do not copy Kids Web content on to other Internet sites.)

Kids Web Japan is operated by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan (MOFA).
