Your grandma and grandpa are now old, infirm, and their memories may be fading, but the life lessons they will impart to you are worth their weight in gold.

If children look forward to anything during the holiday season, it is certainly the arrival of Santa Claus. This year, you can make the holiday season even better for your child by bringing him to the zoo for a 90-minute program that, in addition to petting and feeding the animals, also includes meeting the good man. A reservation is required to participate in the program, and you must bring your child's gift to the scheduled appointments.

There are grandfathers, and then there are Grandfathers, which includes Günther Anton Krabbenhöft, a 104-year-old gentleman who has more style than you and knows that fashion is not reserved for the young and that age is just a number.

The new Instagram profile @fashiongrandpas, which immortalizes the fashion styles of young gentlemen in New York, is gaining popularity very quickly. It's time you started following them too.
