I would like to win an iPad because it would make life a lot easier when I visit my grandson. He keeps asking for games to play on the tablet and if I had a iPad it would be great to give it to him with the games downloaded and ready to play.

Instead of being a spectator
I could be an operator
Download an App
In a Ginger-snap
And I wouldn't feel daft
Not knowing Minecraft
You Tube, Art and Education
All at my fingertips
What a Gran-d sensation!

I would like to win an iPad so that I could download books and encourage my Grandsons to read . The Granddaughters love reading but the boys regard it as a chore , maybe reading on an iPad would appeal to their love of technology ?

I would like to win an iPad because I worry that I am falling behind in my understanding of technology, and this would keep me 'bang up to date' (and impress my 8 grandchildren too)

...... I'm about the only person that I know that doesn't have one! grin

every Granny Smith knows that this app-le is a must have if you want to keep up with the little pips !

I would like to win an iPad because Day or night, whatever the hour, I can switch it on, then have a titter on twitter.

I would like to win an iPad because I would like to use it to teach my music lessons at school with brilliant apps!

I have not got one.

I would like to win an iPad because I could use it on the move, to keep in touch with family at home. Also, if I can master its use, it would give me a great sense of achievement and the feeling that I am keeping up with my grandchildren to whom the use of new technology comes so easily!

Although I'm wrinkly and have grey hair,
My mind is ok and definitely all there.
I'd love to win an i pad dearly
To prove to one and all quite clearly
That grandma's cool and up to date
And we all can use it that's just great!!

For two grandchildren and one old chap
Eureka we've solved the generation gap!
As whenever we fancy and wherever we are
We would be lost in adventures from afar,
Because on my iPad would be this app
Which brings us together.... and is called "Gingersnap".

I would love an iPad so I can use it to video call/skype my grandchildren as they dont live close by

I was in Argos once waiting for my dad to buy something. I decided to play on the display tablets while hanging around. I'd like an iPad so I can take a confused looking selfie like the one I left in Pellon Lane Argos branch.

I don't have any grandkids yet
but when they come along
I'd like to whip my ipad out
and sing a little song!

Pshortis Mon 17-Nov-14 20:37:09

I would like to win an iPad because... my grandmother loves new tech and an iPad would allow us to communicate with each other more often. She could also use it as her computer has been on the blink for some time now!

I would like to win an iPad because my 6 year old granddaughter desperatly wants one and if I won, we could learn together and share.

nannabear Mon 17-Nov-14 21:16:18

To win an Ipad would mean I'd be glad to stop that pad our little lad has when he is mad ... ahhh giving mum a break would be so great and nannabear will always be there smile x

Mines starting to get even more temperamental than me! I really really really want a new one!

When it comes to technology this takes the biscuit!

I'd like to win an iPad so I can download lots of wonderful apps and use them whilst out, it would be much easier than carrying a laptop around with me.

mmmm Tue 18-Nov-14 04:41:35

I would like to win an iPad as my old laptop is slow, poor functioning and out of date - a bit like me.

I would like to win an iPad because..

G-etting in touch with my 'girls' would be such fun,
R-eally 'hip' Nan, they would think if I won,
A-mazing Gingersnap stories we'd make,
N-ew exciting memories, created when they wake,
S-o 'App'y , to learn I would be,
N-ew to all this technology,
E-veryday, we could stay in touch,
T-o have this, I'd feel close, wouldn't miss them sooo much!
