On Thursday afternoon, amid Donald Trump’s state visit to the U.K.<\/a>, Kate Middleton<\/a> and Melania Trump stepped out for a joint outing\u2014without other senior members of the royal family.<\/p>\n

The Princess of Wales<\/a> and first lady joined members of the Scouts\u2019 Squirrels program in Frogmore Gardens for their historic first outing. Chief Scout, Dwayne Fields, was also present for the engagement, where young, 4- to 6-year-old members of the scouting group were learning about nature as they worked to earn their “Go Wild” badge and participating in activities that included some time creating artwork and crafts by pressing inked leaves onto paper and creating “bug hotels” out of cardboard, according to People<\/a>.<\/p>\n

During the engagement, while Princess Kate and Trump were spending time with a group of four- and five-year-olds, the Princess of Wales shared a rare detail about one of her own children, seven-year-old Prince Louis<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Kate revealed to the group that Louis has developed a quirky hobby and is obsessed with collecting conkers\u2014the seeds of the horse chestnut tree\u2014which she said she finds “all over their home,” according to The Mirror.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cWe keep finding conkers in cupboards, in his bed\u2014conkers everywhere!\u201d Kate explained, adding that he even puts the conkers in his toy trucks to play with them.<\/p>\n

Kate has made it clear<\/a> in the past that her favorite times with her family are when they’re “outside in the countryside, and we’re all filthy dirty.”<\/p>\n

Kate opened up about her family’s love of playing oudoors during an\u00a0interview Kate gave on the\u00a0Happy Mum, Happy Baby\u00a0podcast in 2020<\/a>, while discussing what she most wanted her children,\u00a0Prince George<\/a>,\u00a0Princess Charlotte<\/a>, and\u00a0Prince Louis<\/a>, to remember when they think back on their childhoods.<\/p>\n

\u201cSomeone did ask me the other day, what would you want your children to remember about their childhood?\u201d Kate told host Giovanna Fletcher, according to\u00a0People<\/a>. \u201cAnd I thought that was a really good question, because actually if you really think about that, is it that I\u2019m sitting down trying to do their maths and spelling homework over the weekend? Or is it the fact that we\u2019ve gone out and lit a bonfire and sat around trying to cook sausages that hasn\u2019t worked because it\u2019s too wet?\u201d<\/p>\n

The Princess of Wales continued, further describing the moments she wants her children to remember most.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s what I would want them to remember, those moments with me as a mother, but also the family going to the beach, getting soaking wet, filling our boots full of water, those are what I would want them to remember,” Kate added. “Not a stressful household where you\u2019re trying to do everything and not really succeeding at one thing.\u201d<\/p>\n
