I would take my 2 grand daughters to The Eden Project in Cornwall, they both love planting, growing, picking, harvesting and would be in awe of the space. Also, it would allow a little extra time holidaying in the Cornish beaches

If I could I'd take my granddaughter Emma to meet her great great nana's and great great grandads who are no longer with us. She would love to see them. They would be fascinated by how clever and beautiful she is and would love to hear all about her home in Australia. We would have so much fun talking, laughing and playing. She would learn from them and them from her. She could show them how although we live many miles apart she is able to see me, wave at me and say nan nan! All on th
A mobile phone. Emma is just one but I know she would love it ?

I'd love to hire a cottage in Whitby and spend some fun days on the beach, playing games & splodging in the sea. Lots of ice creams and fish & chips and walking the coastline.

I would take them to Ireland to show them all the places I used to go when I was a child. Give them the lovely memories I have of such a friendly place.

I would love to take them to the Ghibli Museum, Mitaka, Tokyo. Somewhere I would love to go myself as I'm a big fan of Studio Ghibli. It gives an alternative to Disney's dominance in animated movies. They love the Studio Ghibli films as do their Mum and her siblings.

I would take them to Norway to see the Northern Lights.

I would take my grandson to Lapland to see the 'real' Father Christmas. I took my boys when they were 6 & 7 & it was amazing. We went tobogganing, had a husky dog safari, a snowmobile safari, a Sleigh ride and visited the Santa Clause village in Rovaniemi. Think its an amazing experience to give a child.

I would take mine to Horton in Ribblesdale. My late DH loved it there and I would love them to see the three peaks that he used to walk.

ayse Tue 29-Oct-19 11:58:01

To see the Northern Lights and Iceland

susanm3456 Tue 29-Oct-19 12:30:53

I would take my Grand children on a Safari - my youngest grand daughter wants to be a vet when she grows up and loves animals so seeing wild animals in their own habitat would be something she would never forget!!

Melj Tue 29-Oct-19 14:24:01

I would take my daughter and 2 grand girls to Disney land Florida, so they could really see what an experience it could be to have so much fun on all the rides, to enjoy being hugged by mickey and Minnie mouse, to take in the sites of what a different country is like at their very young age, and to experience what nice warm weather they have all year round compared to the dismol 5-6 months of the year we have during the winter in the uk, even if they never do it again in their life times they can say WE did that xx
