Our son enjoyed playgrounds, and fairy-tales train was great! Son enjoyed it more than cartoons, russian-speaking programme is also available. We heard that most well-known in Russia Carlson is less popular in Sweden - yes, it is true!

We knew very well Astrid lindgren's stories before and were disappointed about what we saw, too short and too long waiting time for a very short tour on the stories. Small kids will have fun ...

Visited this attraction with my 4 yr old son, wife and my sister. The tale train was interesting with a very keen eye on the details on the displaying and... More

The average age was about 5-6. There was a cafe for coffee, sweets and snacks. There were slides and climbing. There is a track that you can pretend to ski on with small wooden skis. The ride was bend our expectations. It lifted you up and around. The story can be heard in multiple languages. It is a VERY strange... More

My 4 year old could have spent here the whole day. Lots of things to climb and explore. The story train was too scary.

You and your children may not enjoy Junibacken if you do not already know Astrid Lindgren's characters and the other Swedish children books heroes.
