• Children's Playhouse is for kids 5 and up with an adult; plan about 45 minutes, and its hours are shorter than the museum's
• Time Vault from age 8, an interactive trip through time that takes 45 to 90 minutes, also good for teens and adults
• Picnic tables with microwaves in the Great Hall for your own lunch; the restaurant also serves meatballs and pancakes for kids

Nordiska museet shows how people in Sweden and the Nordic countries have lived, from the 1500s to today. In the Children's Playhouse, kids do the chores on an 1890s farm, tend wooden animals and shop at the village store.

Staff hand out maps for two family trails in English: Mission: Vaesen, a hunt for an escaped vaesen, and Mission: The Arctic, through an iceberg in the Great Hall.
