I would like to win an iPad because my 3 year old Grandson is very heavy handed with books and he can't rip a book that he is reading/being read to on an app! It would let him have one at home so his Mum could encourage quiet time reading with him.

I would love to win an eye pad, to give to my grandchildren, they could stay in touch with me via FaceTime, this would be so much fun as we could see each other and they can show what they are up too, with out worring about the cost of telphone calls.

I would like to win an iPad, because although my grandchildren have access to one in their respective homes, they don't have access to one at Granny's house, which means they can't show me their games or interactive books etc when they visit for sleep overs. They can't understand when they can't make my lap top do what they want when they slide their sticky fingers all over the screen Please help me keep my lap top clean, and help make Granny's house a cool place to visit.

I would like to win an iPad because.......my grandchildren live between 700 and 6,000 miles away. It will bring them closer.

I would like to win an iPad to bring me closer to my only grandchild, aged two and a half, and her mum - my daughter - who recently emigrated to Australia.

I would like to win an i-Pad so that my grandchildren and I can learn together and teach each other - I'm sure they know more about the world of technology than I, and in return I can teach them about the world I know.

I would love to win an iPad so that I can keep up-to-date with everything whilst on the move and also, I understand it can also be used to store books, so I would only need to remember one thing when I go and stay with family or babysit.

I would like to win an iPad because........it would allow me to interact with my three grandchildren and share in their never ending thirst for learning.

I would like to win an iPad because it would enable me to keep in touch with my gorgeous grandson who lives 5 hours away! He is absolutely scrummy - we try to talk on Skype but both my daughter & I live in rural areas so both have a terrible internet signal & it would great for my grandson to see me on the screen clearly for once! smile

I would like to win an iPad because...
I'm not your usual old fuddy duddy
I've got a load of tech
From a twin tub washing machine
To a working cassette deck
I've got a bakelite wireless
Tuned to Radio 3
My zimmer frame is made of aluminium
Cutting edge that's me!
When the grandkids are around
I pull out my 78s
Astounding them with recordings
From the music hall greats
Billy, the eldest, is insistent
He says, you need an Apple, Granddad
You'd get all the grannies salivating
If you only had an iPad
So, I suppose to make the grandkids smile
I'll enter this little ditty
And hope to win this apple thingy
I hope you find it witty!

... instead of my grandchildren playing Knock Knock Ginger, we can all play Tap Tap Adventure.

I would love to win an iPad as I have recently gave ours to my Nan and Grandad after their old laptop had died a death. My Grandparents are very computer savvy and are regulars on facebook and twitter, as well as both having a Fantasy Football Team. But one of the big draws would be FaceTime as it would be a perfect way for us to stay in contact and for them to see and chat to my boys. We travel a lot to stay with family so this would be perfect to take with us too.

I would like to win an iPad because...I can stay in touch with my grandchildren by using facetime and they can use it when they visit or when I visit them to play on the games/apps in order to keep them amused.

I would like to win an iPad because...I am a bit of a technophobe and so this piece of Tech would help me with a new challenge.
