What happens after I turn 13 years old?

You would receive a letter from us on the month of your 13th birthday. Enjoy a free slice of princess cake at the IKEA Restaurant as a gift from us to you, and wishing you more fun and adventures in the world outside Småland.

Why can't I be a Smålish citizen after I turn 13 years old?

We would have loved to keep you as a Smålish citizen forever! Every time a human turns 13, they become invisible to us and since we will not be able to see you, we could walk right into you! It has been this way for all giant red and furry hearts for over 1,000 years. The digestive system of a 13-year-old will not be able to process the paper porridge that Smålish citizens eat, hence why we will have to say 'Hej då!' when you get older. But don't be sad! We and all other Smålish citizens will always remember each other.

When will I receive my 13th birthday letter?

You will receive your 13th birthday letter 1 - 2 weeks before your 13th birthday month. Remember to update your mailing address if you move to a new place!
