If you’re looking for a fun summer day activity for your grandfather – whether it’s for his birthday, his anniversary or just to say ‘I love you’ – then I’ve got a great list of ideas just for you.
I’ve recently treated my grandfather to a fabulous helicopter tour and I’ve got to say – he loved it! He’s a little bit of a sucker for history and that’s exactly why I got him a scenic tour (rather than one based in London) over the Iron Bridge in Shropshire. He’s still convinced that the pilot who flew the helicopter was a history major because he knew so much about the area 
Another great idea is clay pigeon shooting which gives your grandpa an opportunity to indulge in one of the oldest past times around! He’ll learn how to load, hold and fire a shotgun correctly and he’ll get to practice his aim on hundreds of clay pigeons zinging through the air.
And finally, treat your grandfather to a day he won’t forget when you spoil him with a Segway experience. The Segway is quite a futuristic device that combines the efficacy of personal mobility with zero-emissions robotics. Grandpa will be shown how to ‘ride’ one of these fun Segways and then he’ll get to ‘drive’ it around a beautiful lake track! This is actually a lot of fun – ideal for people of all ages!
