I'd take them to Woolacombe for a real bucket and spade holiday with a beautiful beach and great sand dunes just like the holidays their parents enjoyed when they were small.

I would take them to South west France for a water sports activities, there have fantastic beaches and there is a great centre there all professionally done called, La Rive.

I would take them to the Galapagos Islands. I think that the diversity of wildlife would help to instill in them the need to care about the animal kingdom.

I would take them to Australia , where i used to live so we could both see the Eastern side of the continent, that none of us has experienced

I would take my little Grandson to either The Falkland Islands or somewhere in North Pole to see his beloved penguins up close in their natural habitat.

I would love to take my grandchildren to Orlando Florida. Their mum is on her own with 3 little ones and does an amazing job. It would be great to treat her and the children.smile

I would take my grandchildren to Kenya where my daughter worked as a teacher, to show then how poorer people live,No flushing toilets or running water, nothing is easy to purchase, cooking your own food from their own harvest.
To walk the 2 hour journey every morning to school & back home again why carrying pitchers of water.
Would also teach not to things for granted.
Also seeing the wildlife live freely walk amazing mountains & deserts

Red Wharf Bay in Anglesey...we had hours of fun here as children. It’s a fabulous place.

Mezzo Sun 06-Oct-19 09:59:51

To St Ives to play on the beaches I did as a little girl

Lclaytonuk555 Sun 06-Oct-19 09:51:20

Ooh decisions, decisions. I think I’d take them to London and show them some of our wonderful heritage as they have never been. I remember going as a child and still have strang memories of Buckingham Palace, the Whispering Gallery in St Paul’s and feeding the sparrows from my hand in the park.

Would love to take my children to California and visit all the theme parks
