Entertainment
There are plenty of trends on social media - fashion trends, fitness trends and, well, all sorts of popular online crazes. Some of them, we can agree, are pretty ridiculous (and potentially fatal) - ahem, the tide pod challenge.
Usually, however, they're pretty harmless and more often than not, they're incredibly sentimental and heartwarming.
And there are few online trends as heartwarming as the one which sees people recreating vintage photos featuring their own grandparents.
So, without further ado, here are 20 photos, some from as far back as a century ago, which were given a modern reworking by some very ambitious grandkids.
