Prince Louis Requests to Play Outside Every Day After School

Prince Louis, the youngest child of Prince William and Catherine, Princess of Wales, has a unique after-school request for his mother.

According to the princess, Louis asked to play outside, in the garden, every day after finishing school.

The royal mother of three has always been an advocate for outdoor activities and believes that spending time in nature is essential for children's overall well-being.

During a recent visit to Wales, where she observed a therapy garden at the rehabilitation centre, Catherine revealed her son's playful request.

She further elaborated that all her children enjoy spending time outdoors and in the garden.

However, Prince Louis is particularly fond of playing outside and loves exploring the natural surroundings.

Louis is currently enrolled in his first year of Lambrook School, the same school as his brother and sister, Prince George and Princess Charlotte.

All three of the Wales' children go to the school in Windsor.

Fortunately for Louis, Lambrook School has been described by parents as pretty bucolic.

The youngest prince may even have joined the school's Forest Fridays, where the youngest pupils head into the school grounds to build dens and roast marshmallows near a fire.

Speaking to those at the garden, Catherine was heard saying, “Louis comes home and says, I need to get my energy out.”

It seems that Louis is following in his mother's footsteps when it comes to the importance of spending time outdoors.

Catherine has always been vocal about the benefits of gardening and spending time outside.

She praised the benefits of gardening and horticulture, stating that they can improve physical and mental health, reduce stress and anxiety, and boost self-esteem.

Catherine also recalled her visit to a forest school in Denmark in February 2022, and how the children there enjoyed campfire songs.

Last September, when the children started the new school year, Sunday Times royal editor Roya Nikar said the Windsor school was perfectly suited for the royal children and offered a different experience when compared to London schools.

She told Lorraine on ITV, “It's a very different set-up.

There's a lot of emphasis on the outdoors.

There are animals there, a miniature golf course, and peacocks that roam free throughout the school.
