The Duchess of Cambridge revealed what has been keeping her kids busy, aside from school, during her visit to Ireland with Prince William.
According to Hello!, Prince George, who is turning seven in July, is learning how to play the guitar. The duchess shared this facet about the third in line to the throne as she and Prince William watched a performance by a local band.
While watching a demonstration by tightrope walkers, Kate apparently shared that Princess Charlotte is into gymnastics. The young royal, who will be five years old in April, is doing cartwheels, handstands and has good balance and coordination.

According to Daily Mail, Prince William and Kate learned to play Gaelic football when they visited Galway's Salthill Knocknacarra Gaelic Athletic Association. Kate used to be a hockey player in her younger years and she didn't feel awkward about hurling a few balls as onlookers watched. Prince William, however, was quicker to pick up the game as Kate missed a few shots and laughed at herself for failing to beat her husband.
The Cambridge royals were also taught the basics of Ireland's other traditional sports. Then, on their visit to one of the town's art centers, Prince William actually surprised everyone when he started juggling some balls.
Prince William joked that he has an option to get into circus as future king. The crowd cheered and applauded the Duke of Cambridge after he showed his juggling skills.
