Sumida (Oshiage) with a baby (0–1) 3 spots
Sumida (Oshiage) sits at the foot of Tokyo Skytree, Japan's tallest tower. The observation deck, an aquarium and shops share one building, so the next stop is just an elevator ride. It suits days when long outdoor walks are hard.

The seats ring the big atrium above the fresh food and deli floor (Food Marche) on 2F, so a baby in your arms can look down on the bustle below. The baby room sits in the very block where the stalls are, 3F block 3, with a water heater just for making formula, a microwave and a private booth, so you never leave the floor and can come straight back to your table.The baby room (private booth, diaper changing table, water heater for formula, microwave and bin) is at 3F block 3, and stroller parking is at 3F block 3 as well. The Tabe-Terrace shops line blocks 3 and 4, so feeding and diaper changes need no change of floor. Of the four baby rooms in the building, only two, 3F block 3 and 6F block 9, have both a baby seat and a changing seat. Only 2 of the 11 shops, Ebisu Yakiniku Champion and Nangokushuka Harajuku Menhanbo, state that strollers may be brought in; the food court as a whole says nothing either way, and nothing forbids it. Note that the official floor guide marks a smoking area in 3F block 3, the same block as the shops.
The Tembo Deck at 350 meters is a floor ringed 360 degrees with glass over 5 meters tall, and the view changes with the direction you face, so a baby in your arms can be held right up to it. Floors 350, 345 and 340 are linked by the wheelchair and stroller priority elevator, so you can go around the observation deck still pushing the stroller.The Baby Care Rooms, used for diaper changes and nursing, are listed in the official floor guide in two places: the 1F group east lobby and inside the 4F main entrance. The official FAQ describes the same facility as a room provided inside the observation deck, so if you may need one higher up, ask a staff member where it is. Strollers can be borrowed but numbers are limited, so you ask a nearby staff member on the day. Once you enter you cannot re-enter, the only drink you may bring in is a capped plastic bottle, and there are no vending machines inside the observation deck. Infants aged 5 and under are free.
The whole aquarium is indoors, and it states that ramps and elevators let you go right through pushing a wheelchair or a stroller. The penguins swim in the same space as you rather than behind glass, so even a baby in your arms is close enough that spray sometimes reaches you. LED lighting follows the hours of the day: by day a natural brightness with the birds swimming energetically, by night dim light and penguins asleep. There are chairs in front of the tanks, so you can sit and let the moving water surround you.A Baby Rest Room with a hot water sink and a nursing room is on both 5F and 6F, one each, with purified hot water meant for making formula (men may not enter the nursing room). No strollers are lent out, so bring your own. Strollers are the limit of what may be brought in: outdoor carts and other child carriers that are not strollers are not allowed. If you leave it behind, there is a stroller park at the 5F aquarium entrance, outside the aquarium (they take no responsibility for loss or theft, so keep valuables with you). Food and drink may be brought in, and inside you eat sitting on a chair. Children under 3 need no ticket.
