Is there any need to get thermal wear? For tokyo? Weather forecast says 3-13 degrees

Depends on your body constitution and your winter wardrobe. If your jumpers are not 100% wool, you might wanna layer with thermal wear. If they are made of good merino wool with some cashmere, you might not even need thermal, just cotton inner wear will be good enough.

Better to keep kiddos warm with thermal wear, sweater and winter jacket as required.

My family will be heading to Tokyo for the 3rd time for the last 4 years. This time round will be staying at Sheraton Grande and Hilton. But my kids wanted to see snow, does anyone have any ideas how to go for a day trip to a place witin Tokyo where I can find snow?

Thanks in advance
