IKEA Sheffield – Småland and Swedish Restaurant
Sheffield, South Yorkshire
IKEA's free Småland play area takes children for up to an hour, looked after by staff trained in childcare, while a parent stays in the store. The Swedish Restaurant is in the same store — IKEA doesn't say whether you can eat while your child is in Småland, so ask at the Småland desk.
For the children
Supervised free play in Småland: arts and crafts, books, imaginative and interactive toys and a ball pool, looked after by IKEA Småland staff trained in childcare (ratio 1:8, a paediatric first-aider always present).

A guide, not a guarantee. Shown only where the venue or a trusted source has told us. Not listed doesn't mean not available — check with the venue if it matters for your visit.
Researched by Tumble in October 2026 from each restaurant's own website (or the website of the company running its kids' club). Tumble doesn't take these bookings. Kids' clubs, times and prices change and some need booking ahead, so check with the restaurant before you go. Where we don't give a price, age range or time, it means the restaurant doesn't publish one.
