Henry Winkler has always been the coolest, but now he’s got six devoted fans who can confirm that fact: His adoring grandchildren.

“It is different, completely different than being a parent,” he has said of being a grandfather, “but it is filled with the same emotion… Every one of them is different. You have to approach each one completely differently.”
