back in time to just after the 2nd world war - to help them appreciate the good life and luxuries they have got

I would take them to St. Ives in Cornwall where I spent many happy holidays as a child and adult. They are still too young to make the journey but I hope to take them soon.

I'd follow the route of 'The Snail on the Tail of the Whale' with them, roaming far and wide.

Disney World Florida

sylviagill1807 Sat 02-Nov-19 05:30:39

I would take them to Disneyland Florida because we took our two children there three times, and the memories still linger of happy precious fun-filled days and nights.

It would have to be Orlando ,to the Theme parks

CompIron Sat 02-Nov-19 08:35:38

I would take them to Euro Disney for Christmas

If I could take my grandchildren any where in the world it the be Clachtoll in the Scottish highlands, continuing a family tradition of camping in the remote highlands enjoying the simple life...a stunning white beach and clear seas just 200yrds away from the campsite, lots of wildlife to spot and beautiful walks to enjoy

Wycombeite Sat 02-Nov-19 09:48:43

I would take them to the Louvre Museum in Paris for a wonderfully artistic experience and the best creme brûlée in France!

charlesroger Sat 02-Nov-19 10:31:03

Nicxi Sat 02-Nov-19 10:35:45

Jilly1967 Sat 02-Nov-19 10:48:18

on a safari to see those zoo animals that they loved to see in their homeland

RosinaAmy Sat 02-Nov-19 10:53:20

To Canada to see all the lakes ????

Seizetheafternoon Sat 02-Nov-19 11:01:18

I don’t mind where we go as long as we are together but if I were to choose it would be to go to Efteling. The world can be a hard place and anything that brings some wonder, magic and suspense of reality for a while when they’re still young enough to believe, is something they would enjoy and hopefully remember.

kittyhawk Sat 02-Nov-19 12:08:24

I would take them to the Mull of Kintyre where red deer roam on the hillsides and the mist really does roll in from the sea! We'd stay in a lighthouse cottage and watch the sea in all its different moods. We'd walk on the beach and if they're (un)lucky I'd sing the song Paul McCartney, who loved it too, made famous to them!

lucy120606 Sat 02-Nov-19 12:38:55

I would take them to Canada, where I grew up it is such a beautiful country which holds precious memories

paulacheadle Sat 02-Nov-19 12:45:21

I would love to take them to southern Spain, it is a beautiful area to visit and lots to do and see. All 6 of them would love it

bdavies Sat 02-Nov-19 13:44:49

Definitely Disney World Florida. Took my son when he was seven. Not sure which of us was the most impressed.

buzylizzy Sat 02-Nov-19 14:43:54

I would take them to Sweden to see the Northern Lights,stay in an Ice Hotel, go in a reindeer sleigh and have some fun in the snow. These are things they would never dream of being able to do and are once in a lifetime experiences. x

eloisemummy Sat 02-Nov-19 15:46:33

woodlepage Sat 02-Nov-19 15:59:01

To New Zealand, the Lord of the Rings locations to experience part of the magic.

biddymarie Sat 02-Nov-19 16:20:42
