Matt Roloff always tries to make sure that his grandchildren are happy and for this, he is ready to go to any extent. When Matt found out that his grandson, Jackson, was denied an airplane ride because of his height, he knew he had to take matters in his hand. 

Terri Roloff recalled that when she and her husband, Zachary Roloff, took their son for a carnival, there was a plane ride which he was excited to go to. However, when they measured his height, they realized that he did not meet the required height needed to take the ride. Undoubtedly, it upset Jackson but Matt was there to save the day. 

After buying half of the farm, Matt decided he would create a "grandpa playground" to make sure that his grandchildren are happy. He first started the playground by building an airplane ride which he made sure would be perfect for Jackson to play on. 

Once the ride was halfway constructed, he decided it was time to surprise Jackson and see how he reacted. He called Terri, Zachary and Jackson to have a look at what he had made. As soon as Jackson laid his eyes on the ride, his happiness had no bounds. He was excited to see that there was finally a ride that he could take.

He immediately rushed and started exploring the place and was happy to have a plane of his own. Zachary appreciated his dad's efforts to make sure that Jackson was happy. He recalled the time when he was a child and he and his siblings would look forward to coming back home because they wanted to find out what little surprise Matt had planned for them. 

He then had a flashback of the time when his dad created a pirate ship for all of the siblings to come and play. Matt confessed that he did not know they loved it so much but appreciated him revealing this. The same joy could be seen on Jackson's face as well and the viewers were quick to fall in love with this gesture. 

One wrote, "Now Matt building that airplane for Jackson was the sweetest thing though." While others fell in love with Jackson's reaction as one wrote, "Jackson gets more adorable every season!" Another added, "The baby Jackson is soooo cute!!!"

'Little People, Big World' airs on Tuesdays at 9 pm ET on TLC.
