Following its incredible success throughout Japan with over 1.4 million visitors, the experience is now in Australia for the first time ever! The Unko Museum: The Kawaii Poop Experience focuses on you guessed it - all things kawaii cute poop! Unko means poop in Japanese. The giant ball pit has a giant poop where fun videos are projected in Japanese and the center shoots balls!
