No matter how posh and lavish their lives are, Kate Middleton wants her kids to have a normal and down-to-earth childhood, just like what Princess Diana wanted to give Prince William and Prince Harry. The Duchess of Cambridge is doing her best to give Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis an Enid Blyton Famous Five life that she has been aiming for them.
A source told Fabulous, via The Sun, that the future queen consort makes sure that their kids will experience lives outdoors. She also wants them to have physical activities, like tree climbing, swimming, making dens, growing flowers and vegetables, playing team games, and dog walking. There are the same things that she experienced when she was a child while growing up in Bucklebury -- "a solid, balanced, kind family life."
Due to the coronavirus outbreak and lockdown in the United Kingdom, Prince William and Kate Middleton are self-isolating, along with their kids, at their Anmer Hall home in Norfolk. Thankfully, their house has an extensive garden, where Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis can enjoy the outdoors. Some of their physical activities are climbing the wall and frames and swings.
Kate Middleton will also do pond dipping and note-taking to write what her kids see that day. "Birdwatching with binoculars is another favorite of the kids," the tipster continued to say.
Prince William and his wife are also not afraid to introduce competition to their children. They love to play games on the lawn, and the kids understand that there will be winners and losers. The Duke of Cambridge may be a protective dad, but he's not stifling. They all share a wicked sense of humor and love having fun with each other.
The future king may have inherited this upbringing from his mother, Princess Diana, who made him and his brother, Prince Harry, be aware of their privileges but let them experienced how to have normal lives. Kate Middleton also experienced the same when she was a child. Royal commentator Ingrid Seward revealed, per Marie Claire, that her parents, Carole and Michael Middleton, encouraged her, along with her siblings, Pippa and James, to spend time together as a family.
For their mom, family always has to come first. She also worked hard to give them the opportunities she never had when she was young. They are all well-educated and well-mannered. They are also all physically active, playing sport, singing, dancing, and enjoying the outdoors when they were kids.
Carole also taught Kate Middleton, Pippa, and James to cook, create, and do things together as a family. Thankfully, the stable background Prince William's wife's had gave her natural confidence that helped her get through her royal life.
