There is also a takeaway food option situated near the exit – here you can buy cheap combos of fast food and drinks or even an ice cream, for a snack on the way home. Its fun to choose a colourful paper bag and pick your mix! It contains 64 assorted lollies and chocolates imported from Sweden at a cost of $2.25 per 100g. Just past the checkouts in the Swedish Food Market, is another kiddy heaven: The Pick ‘n’ Mix display. And I get a chance to grab a few small items as we fly through the shop. Miss 5 is still bursting with energy so we usually grab some of the kid sized trolleys and push them through the Market Hall all the way around to the checkouts – this is great fun for both kids. If I were on my own I could have shopped and then paid and made my way back to collect my child all within an hour. There are plenty of highchairs and plastic plates and utensils (the Ikea brand of course) for use in the restaurant.Īfter a satisfying coffee and pastry treat, it’s time to collect Miss 5 from Smaland. In this area is also a nursing corner with a comfy chair, and a microwave for baby feeding requirements.

Nearby is a small area with a bench seat facing a tv screen with an animated movie running constantly.
Miss 18m likes going up and down the short steps on repeat. Inside the gazebo are various tactile games and things to look at that fascinate the kids for ages. I position myself near the kids entertainment area which has a Gazebo play area that Miss 18m loves.

Or how about a full hot Breakfast for $2.95 (only available before 10:30am though). There is an enticing choice of hot and cold lunches as well as Swedish pastries and sweet treats. The food prices will amaze you and are pretty unbeatable in Perth – for example a coffee and a cinnamon swirl cost me a mere $3.50! This area leads directly on to the Swedish restaurant/canteen. It keeps Miss 18m occupied and happy for a good 10–15mins. Here you will find samples of Ikea products that the kids are allowed to play with: tents, swings, chairs, a wooden play kitchen and various wooden and soft toys.
So I usually make my way through the display rooms first at a decent pace, pointing out fun things to her and getting my fix of design and clever home décor… and then when she’s starting to squirm, I dash towards the last stop which is the Children’s furniture and toys section. Ideally if you have a baby who is happy in the pram then you can spend your entire hour browsing Ikea at your leisure, but in my case Miss 18m has a ceiling on pram time. There are toilets inside the play area too. Miss 5 loves going to Smaland, and always seems surprised that the hour is up when I collect her. Inside the play area is a big pit of balls to tumble into, a tunnel to hide out in, and a colouring-in table with plenty of paper, as well as a comfy theatre area where a kids movie is screened. The friendly staff then take your child from you and show them around.
