Great things to do in Stockholm with kids

Fjärilshuset Haga Ocean and Hagaparken

At over 3000 square meters, Stockholm’s Butterfly House offers a great opportunity for the whole family to marvel at thousands of butterflies, and walk over bridges and past waterfalls. Fjärilshuset Haga Ocean, also features an aquarium with a coral reef project that will surely amaze kids of all ages, and Sweden’s largest shark tank. The 30 meter long aquarium holds 1,2 million litres of water and is home to two shark species, the black Tip reef shark and the highfin reef shark.

Fjärilshuset is surrounded by Hagaparken, which many consider the finest park in Stockholm. The park is vast, with a huge lake where you can swim in the summer and fish all year round. Hagaparken is Sweden’s foremost example of an English landscape park, and one of Sweden's most popular recreational areas. Cafés and restaurants are scattered throughout the park and if the weather is warm you can picnic on one of the fields.
