The Child's price ticket seems to apply to ages 6-11? What about children under 6? Thank you.
Children 5 years old

Hi there,
Children under 6 travel for free on JR trains (on most transport in Japan, under 6 travel for free). Please note that these children have to be travelling with a fare paying adult, and will need to sit on their lap if the train becomes busy.
We have a blog post on using the Japan Rail Pass with children seats here.
Hope this helps!
