I'm not from Sweden but I have been to Stockholm a few times. First of all, it will be VERY cold so make sure you have lots of layers for your little one (and you). Alot of the attractions are designed for when the weather's a bit warmer (they have a whole open air museum), but the Astrid Lindgren m...

Wimbledon Centre definitely has one, but I think you're better off going somewhere outside where it feels a bit more authentic. We went to Battersea Children's Zoo (www.batterseaparkzoo.co.uk) a few years back - it was a bit basic but our boys (then four and five) loved it because they could see th...
