Each pack contains questions for grandparents to ask their grandchildren and questions for children to ask their grandparents.

For a chance to win a gorgeous activity hamper and a pack of Coaching Cards for Grandparents to share with your grandchild or grandchildren, as well as a £50 John Lewis voucher for you to spend, tell us the funniest question one of your grandchildren has ever asked you.

One of the family's chickens died. Childminder asked GD (5) if it had gone to heaven.
GD: 'Oh no, Daddy wrapped it in a black bag and put it in the bin'.

Other GD once asked 'What did you do in the War, Granny?'
Me: I was a toddler!

My granddaughter, who is five, was pulling at her pants. I said 'Please don't do that' 'why!' she replied. To which I said 'because it is not lady-like'. She thought for a moment and then asked me 'Well is it man-like then?'.

My 4 year old Grandson asked why Grandads hair was on his chin and not on his head. Is it because his wig slipped down? Or has he got his head on upside down. I was laughing to much to come up with an answer and by the time I stopped he was laughing to much to care what the answer was

chrismse1 Tue 09-Aug-16 16:15:24

`Nanna why do you have hair on your chin are you really a man?`

I was cleaning my daughter's windows and my little grandson was pondering on the bird droppings I was trying to get off. "Grandma, how do birds go poo sideways?", he asked.
