Melania Trump and Catherine, Princess of Wales Head Outside to Make ‘Bug Hotels,’ with a Side of Diplomatic Honey
Melania Trump and Catherine, Princess of Wales, engaged with Squirrel Scouts in hands-on nature activities to promote environmental education during a U.K. state visit.
- On Thursday, Melania Trump and the Princess of Wales spent time outdoors crafting with Squirrel Scouts aged 4 to 6 on the grounds of Windsor Castle.
- This casual crafting event followed Wednesday's formal state banquet held at Windsor's St George's Hall during Trump's second U.K. state visit.
- The activities at Frogmore House included painting leaves, a parachute game, making bug hotels, and awarding scouting badges with Chief Scout Dwayne Fields present.
- Fields described the event as "incredible," and each child was given a jar of honey from the White House as a gift from the First Lady. The sandwiches served included honey produced by the Princess of Wales from her family's beehives.
- The joint appearance reflected shared focus on children's well-being and early childhood awareness while offering a humanizing contrast to the formal visit's pageantry.
