Museum of Copenhagen

Viking objects, mummies and the children's area make this a much easier history stop than the building suggests.

Kids can climb into historic rooms, dress up and play through Danish history instead of just looking at objects.

Shrunken heads, strange objects and visual tricks make this better for older kids who enjoy gross and bizarre things.

The rooftop pool and central station location make this a very appealing splurge with kids who actually use hotel amenities.

The buffet is useful with kids because they can take tiny amounts of pasta, salads and vegetables until something works.

Huge sculptures and brightly painted rooms give kids something big and visual to focus on.
