we have already one day trip planned to tivoli, but anything else we should definately do with a couple of toddlers in tow?
Legoland is in Jutland so probably not an option.
Bakken is good - Cheaper than Tivoli and you can take your own food in. It's in the middle of the woods which have Deers in and kids love that stuff I guess. It's a half hour train ride from Copenhagen.
http://www.bakken.dk/ Unfortunately the website is only in Danish. There is a sign that says they are working on getting other features on there (such as English translation).
The beach in Amager is free and cheap. A short metro ride. The water is fairly safe - it's a man made beach - albeit cold.
Getting around isn't a problem either. The trains are well designed and there are lifts so if you are laden with a pushchair its cool. Kids will love the metro too. Cos you can sit right up front - there is no driver and the tunnels are lit up.
The experimentarium in Hellerup (15 minutes by train) is good but may be for older kids. http://www.experimentarium.dk/uk/udstillinger/index.html
It's like a science museum.
There's plenty of parks and cafes are child friendly.
It's near Kolding on Jutland, and would take a half day to get to so unless you stay near there you'd find it hard going for a day from Copenhagen. I went to Legoland and Copenhagen when I was about 8 but my brothers were a lot younger (3-5). We all enjoyed Tivolli, they had a great merry-go-round you powered yourself, little bikes. Parents took us to Ribe, a historic town which looked nice but perhaps that's for older people. When we were younger we were satisfed with a nice park, swimming pool or beach, I think kids can be quite easy to please sometimes, we were mainly impressed, I remember, with the cheese slicing machine in the hotel.
