Scandinavians like kids but don't offer a lot of special amenities for them. For example, a kiddies' menu in a restaurant is a rarity. You can, however, order a half portion, and most waiters will oblige.
At attractions -- even if it isn't specifically posted -- inquire if a kids' discount is available. European Community citizens 17 and under are admitted free to all state-run museums.
