Having lived in Göteborg many years ago, I am one of those who thinks that the Swedish East/West coasts are among the most beautiful places in the world (during the Summer). Unfortunately, Summer is fleeting and some years doesn't come at all.
If you can get access to a sailboat, your kids would love island hopping. Another alternative is Gotland. I did a summer camping trip on bikes that was really awesome.
But your itinerary looks fun. Copenhagen,Stockholm, Tallinn are all cool and there are beaches IN Tallinn. And if you get some rain, as others point out, there are museums (ie Vasa) and historic stuff in each capital. I always like the tourist boats through the canals (Göteborg/Stockholm/Copenhagen) as a starting point.
Have fun!

Scandinavia is gorgeous in the Summertime when it isn't cold and rainy (unusual, but it can happen). I highly recommend Stockholm, particularly the old town. Since your kids are older, I won't recommend the Pippi Longstocking park or the MoominWorld park in Turku, Finland (just across the gulf). If you like old archeological bits, there's Visby on Gotland (Gotland is cool al by itself as a vacation destination).
What sorts of stuff does your family like to do?
