- Public skating days and hours differ by rink, and some days are closed for competitions or lessons. Even at year-round rinks, check the schedule for your day before you go.
- Gloves that cover your fingertips are required for skating at many rinks. Kodomo-no-Kuni does not let you skate without gloves. You can buy them for ¥200 at Ginga Arena and ¥300 at Ikaho Rink, and also inside Ice Park Funabashi and Saitama Ice Arena.
- Free helmet rental is offered at places such as Ginga Arena, Saitama Ice Arena and Ikaho Rink.
