First Lady Melania Trump and Princess Kate Visit Squirrel Scouts
First Lady Melania Trump and the Princess of Wales, Kate, spent time with young children in the Squirrel Scout program, participating in various activities.
The two women visited Frogmore Gardens, located just south of Windsor Castle, where they were greeted by Chief Scout Dwayne Fields of the Television Personalities and Scouts Association.
During their visit, they presented the “wild” badge to children aged 4 to 6 who are part of the scout program.
“Congratulations,” Trump said, expressing her enthusiasm as two children approached to receive their badges from her and the princess.
Before the badge ceremony, Trump and Kate joined the kids in a playful activity, waving a parachute filled with balls, followed by a picnic where volunteers interacted with the first lady.
Throughout the visit, Trump and the Princess walked side by side in the garden, chatting at both the beginning and end of their time there.
Upon arrival, they joined the children in decorating leaves and constructing “bug hotels.”
“This is beautiful!” Trump exclaimed while sitting with the kids, mentioning a boy who was showing her how to press leaves onto paper.
“He’s a happy bear, right?” she asked, admiring the boy’s artistic efforts.
She also contributed to the artwork by painting a sun and grass, while the boy added pink flowers. Meanwhile, Kate engaged with some children on the grass, discussing their creations.
A little girl took Trump’s hand, leading her to another table with a hopski, climbing onto her lap as they interacted with other kids.
“Nice to meet you! What are you all doing? It’s so beautiful. It’s lovely,” Trump remarked.
As they built a “bug hotel” from cardboard, the first lady requested guidance from the children on the process.
One child inquired about her favorite bug, to which she replied, “Ladybug.”
Earlier in the day, Trump toured Windsor’s Royal Library with Queen Camilla, viewing various displays, including drawings by Leonardo Da Vinci.
They also explored a collection of poetry and paintings from Elizabeth I, created by a young princess in prayer books dated from 1525 to 1530, as well as a second folio of Shakespeare from 1632.
