Miraikan at Odaiba should be good for 12yr olds but dont expect full English guidance.

i was hoping to enter national museum of science and nature but didn't due to time restriction, maybe you can try that. even if don't understand japanese still can see the exhibits. besides, it's near the ueno zoo.

went to miraikan, the normal exhibits are okay, if compare to the current sg science center, i'd prefer sg de. but when i went there was a ninja exhibition(ended already) which we need to pay extra, though it was definitely worth it. does help if you understand jap, but they have simple english translation as well.
