I'm blessed to spend a lot of time, including lovely holidays, with my grandchildren. If there is one unusual place I'd like to take them it would be back in time to meet my parents, their great-grandparents. I know my Mum and Dad would have adored them and it's sad that they never met, but I try to tell the children stories of my parents (and grandparents) to keep a connection between the generations and remind us all that we are one big family even if we never get together at once.

I would take them to Lapland to see Father Christmas, they are so excited for Christmas already

Every outing with my grandchild would be a mini adventure to open her mind to the wonders of the world, be it a visit to a London museum or a walk around a lake in the park to identify new creatures great and small

I’d take them to Disneyland. I’d love to see the excitement on their faces

To America to spend some time with their cousins - its Winter now so i'd wait a few weeks and go when the big snow really comes there!

It would have to be a log cabin in Austria for Christmas, a sleigh ride to meet Santa would be the icing on the cake

We would take our grandaughter to Disney World in Florida because it is magical and we are big kids at heart.

Northwestwoman1979 Sun 03-Nov-19 18:16:54

I would take them to Pompei in Rome as they are very interested in the history of it.

julieray Sun 03-Nov-19 18:19:30

I'd take them to New Zealand. It looks so beautiful and more relaxed than the UK. Don't fancy sitting with them on a plane for 24 hours though!!

Ottodog Sun 03-Nov-19 18:33:03

I'd take them to Kenya to see all the wonderful sights the country has to offer - wildlife and African culture abound

Back to where the Gallagher clan first began - co donegal ireland - family roots are so important as without our forefathers we would not exist
A sense of PRIDE and ALWAYS joy

Reinforcing TRUE LIFE you always need to take care of your roots for future SUCCESS

Sarah1271 Sun 03-Nov-19 19:39:14

Tergly Sun 03-Nov-19 19:53:54

Disneyland in Florida. They range from 3 to 11 years and would not get bored!

MrsLefty1010 Sun 03-Nov-19 20:01:19

A day on the beach, with a picnic, donkey rides, and a go in the amusements because its the type of fun children remember for a lifetime.

fionabiker Sun 03-Nov-19 20:02:00

walt disney world in florida,so magical there

Carolann99 Sun 03-Nov-19 20:17:13

I would normally say Florida, because it's so much fun. But at the moment I would say a visit to the Tutankhamen exhibition that has just opened in London. I saw it in 1972. It was magnificent, and apparently it will never leave Egypt again. The Treasures of the Pharaoh's tomb are a wonder to behold I think grandchildren should see them if they are old enough to understand the history of Ancient Egypt.

ziggy2407 Sun 03-Nov-19 20:20:54

I'd take my grandchildren (and children) to Mexico, I'd love to show them all the beauty, visit the Mayan ruins and Chichin Itza (so much more interesting than Minecraft)
