Princess Kate shares hand-drawn portraits by Louis, Charlotte and George
Hear this story The Royal Family appears to be full of talented artists. The official social media account of Prince William and Princess Kate shared a collage of hand-drawn portraits on Monday by Prince Louis, Princess Charlotte and Prince George and Kate herself. Six-year-old Louis and nine-year-old Charlotte's portraits presumably depict Kate, from the shoulders up. The portraits are bright and colorful. For George's portrait, the 11-year-old took a step back, drawing his mother more detailed, sitting in a chair. And Kate's portrait, which appears to be drawn with pencil or charcoal, shows a restful George with his eyes closed. "Drawing portraits with children can provide a moment of connection as you spend time looking at and focusing on one another, as well as being creative and − most importantly – having lots of fun together," the post reads. The social media post promotes The Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood's The Shaping Us Framework. Kate established the center in 2021 to drive awareness on the importance of early childhood development. The framework, more specifically, provides curriculum for better understanding social and emotional skills. Need a break? Play the USA TODAY Daily Crossword Puzzle.
