My mom brought my nieces for a visit. They are 3 and 7. My mom wants to go to IKEA since she has never been. My boys were too old to ever use the playland at IKEA. I've looked on the website, but it doesn't give the rules. Would I be able to check in two kids that aren't techically mine? Is three old enough? Is seven too old? How long can they be in there? I'm thinking we would want about an hour to look around the showroom (I know IKEA is a time suck, but I go often and know exactly what I need and my mom isn't much of a shopper and mostly just wants to check it out).
Thanks!

Call ikea and see if they have it. We were at ikea the other day and the area that was the playland is now display. Maybe they moved it, though. We do not need it any more. We just noticed and commented to each other.

Yes, you sign them in. They never ask relationship. The same person who signs them in, must sign them out. You have to have a cell phone with you. They both have to be potty trained, less than 54" and taller than 37". This is at ours of course but we've been to a few and they are the same. And wear socks.

It is done by height at our Ikea, a min and a max. My DD was too tall on our last visit and she was 7. They can stay for an hour unless it is super busy, then it's 30 min.

At our IKEA the time limit is one hour or if you are an IKEA Family member (it's easy to sign up for it and it's free) you get 90 minutes. We went a few weeks ago and they did ask for a photo id from me. Maybe I looked sketchy that day!
My girls love the playland. They will page you if the child cries or if there is a problem of any sort.

It's not like they ask for a birth cert so how would they even know the kids "aren't yours"?
The biggest rule is the child must be completely potty trained. Other than that it is by minimum/maximum height. The 7 yr old might be too tall.
It's first come, first served, so it might be hard to get into on a Saturday.
