Out of a fairytale |
Karlavägen 32 Stockholm 114 31 +46 (0)8 21 5998 |
Humlegården is like something out of a fairytale. Right by Karlavägen is a fenced playground called Humlan, which has an extremely generous staff who don't mind watching the children for a while. In the small cottage, hot coffee is served. They also have three-wheelers, scooters and pedal cars to lend to the children. On Tuesdays, hotdog barbeques are arranged at 11a and 2p.

Fun outdoor pools |
Sandhamnsgatan 63 Stockholm 115 +46 (0)8 661 6216 |
An outdoor pool with lifeguards and swimming instructors, this place is located in Gärdet. The pool is shallow, at one end, and a bit deeper at the other end. It is sectioned off to provide separate areas for exercise and for swimming instructions. There is also a special pool for tiny tots. Next to the dressing rooms, there are saunas and showers. To get there, take the metro to Gärdet, then bus number 1. Review © 2007, Wcities |
Park and Ice Rink |
Kungsträdgården Stockholm 103 91 +46 (0)8 5082 8508 |
The King's Garden is located in central Stockholm. This park serves dual purposes, as an outdoor concert venue in summer, and an ice-skating rink in winter. It also has an abundance of benches and is surrounded by fountains, restaurants, and cafés. During winter, you can hire a pair of skates and enjoy a few laps around the rink. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Influences from France |
Surbrunnsgatan 28 Stockholm 113 +46 (0)8 714 0420 http://www.mayo.se/program.asp... mayo@scandboule.se |
When the first rays of the sun appear, it is time for Stockholmers to wake up and explore the city again after a long and dark winter. A couple of days in May offer the opportunity to do this through a boule competition arranged in Kungsträdgården. It is played in teams of three people. This contest is welcome both to curious citizens and the sporting elite. The 150 first players to register win a surprise goody bag. You can enter the contest on the spot but then the fee is higher.

At the School Museum, an old classroom is recreated with authentic interiors and all kinds of teaching aids, such as old maps showing countries that do not exist anymore. If you want your children to experience a day in the life of a student from way back, this is the place to go. They get to write with steel nibs, study old pictures and see skeletons used for science lessons. Bring your own old-fashioned packed lunch to eat at your desk. Review © 2007, Wcities |
