I would love to take my grandchildren to Lapland to see the northern lights and to meet the real Santa Claus. We all love snow and sleigh rides and snowball fights would also be on the cards

Australia ,it would be lovely to take my grandson to see my daughter there.

I would take them to New Zealand to show them how beautiful it is, then take them to see their relatives we have there.

I would take my grandchildren to the Snowdonia National Park to see the Red Kite in flight and to the Welsh Mountain Zoo to see conservation of smaller animals in action such as the seals, flamingos, red squirrels and red pandas. Teach them whilst they are young to respect and conserve animals of all kinds :D

Duxford - not to see ducks but to share old grandad's love of old aeroplanes!

I would take them back in time to meet some of their very interesting ancestors.

I would take them to Florida and Disney World as all children should experience the magic. As Walt Disney famously said
“Laughter is timeless, imagination has no age, dreams are forever.”

No Grandchildren yet but when they arrive I would like to take them to Cornwall. Lots of magical places to visit.

Torminator2709 Mon 07-Oct-19 20:16:54

I think it has to be Disney World!

Bathsheba Mon 07-Oct-19 20:22:00

I'd love to take them to the northernmost part of Norway, during those two months in the summer when it is 'The Land of the Midnight Sun'. It would be totally magical!

And then I'd want to go back with them at a different time of year, so they could witness the Aurora Borealis.

etheltbags1 Mon 07-Oct-19 20:43:00

I would take her to Norway to see the fabulous scenery and to visit the wonderful little villages by the fiords. We would go to Bergen plenty to see and do there lots of lovely parks to play in. We would go shopping for a playmate for her big troll.

I would love to take my grandchild to Legoland, Windsor. I know he would love it. His favourite thing is building models and creating things with his lego.

Iceland would be brilliant. If we saw the northern lights that would be an added bonus

changeznameza Mon 07-Oct-19 22:08:52

To Iceland to see the amazing scenery and the sweet wild ponies. And hopefully a glimpse of the Aurora Borealis. That would be amazing.

Ellyfriend Mon 07-Oct-19 23:36:34

I would take them to Kenya to see the orphaned baby elephants and rhinos. And show them the great work the rescue workers do. And let them see these beautiful animals. As they get ready to back to the wild where they belong.

jeanio Mon 07-Oct-19 23:38:13

I would take them all to Disneyland USA as I'm a child at heart really and four of them have already been but the youngest Harry won't have a chance to go unless I take him soon.

I'd love to take them to see the Northern Lights. It would depend on the time of year as to where the best place would be...

jtl1131 Tue 08-Oct-19 01:23:34

I would take them to Disneyworld Florida

Pansy123 Tue 08-Oct-19 02:10:14

I would take my grandchildren to the Dark Sky areas of Northumberland where we could visit the kielder Observatory . We would wrap up warm and on clear nights I would teach them the names of constellations and planets . Hopefully I would be able let them experience the awe and wonder it is possible to feel when looking up at the Milky Way that dazzles above our heads each night .
