Kate Middleton and Prince William are teaching their kids all about the ‘country life.’
The Duke of Cambridge revealed that Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis have been helping out on the farm around their country home, Anmer Hall, in Norfolk during their break from school.
According to People, while speaking to elementary school teacher Rhian Roberts, the father of three said his royal brood even helped deliver newborn lambs.
“We’ve been lambing with the children this week,” William said. “Charlotte wasn’t sure at first, but George was straight in there. Louis loves the tractors. They love seeing the lambs and feeding the lambs.” Hmm, we can honestly say our school breaks were spent quite differently.
The 37-year-old royal chatted with Roberts (whose family runs a dairy farm) before attending the Wales vs. France rugby match in Cardiff on Saturday.
“We were talking about the land where he was and the land where we are, which is a mining area,” Roberts said. “He said they’ve been lambing this week up in Norfolk. They want the children to see the country way of life as well as the city way of life.”
The duke and duchess have been open about the importance of spending time in nature. In a new interview on the Happy Mum, Happy Baby podcast, hosted by bestselling author Giovanna Fletcher, Middleton discussed her love for the outdoors and the importance of being in nature with your children.
“It’s something I’m really passionate about,” she says. “I think it’s so great for physical and mental wellbeing and laying those foundations. It’s such a great environment to actually spend time in, building those quality relationships without the distractions of ‘I’ve got to cook’ and ‘I’ve got to do this.’ And actually, it’s so simple.”
Delivering baby lambs at ages six, four and two? Now that's impressive.
