Prince William & Kate Middleton Are Teaching Their Kids How To Steer & Sail A Boat: 'They Love The Water,' Shares Source

An insider shared that Prince William & Kate Middleton have been teaching Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis how to 'steer and sail.'

Prince William and Kate Middleton's kids are becoming quite the outdoorsmen!

According to Vanity Fair, Prince George, 8, Princess Charlotte, 6, Prince Louis, 3, and their parents spent several days last month sailing a small boat on the scenic coast of Norfolk, England.

"They are very much a family of sailors now," a source declared. "Kate has always been a competent sailor and William’s pretty good too. They have enjoyed some wonderful time on the coast this summer sailing and showing the children how to steer and sail a boat."

The source noted that the children "love the water and the two eldest are good swimmers and had no qualms about jumping into the sea even if it was a bit fresh."

"The kids were all running in and out of the water with their dog and spent hours playing in the sand," added the onlooker. "They are clearly a family that love being outdoors and in nature. It was lovely to see them playing so freely and not being bothered by anyone."

The family-of-five closed out the summer season by taking a trip to Scotland, where Queen Elizabeth is staying at her Balmoral estate.

"They always enjoy going up to Balmoral, they love the outdoors and walking in the hills and spending quality time with family," an insider said. "It’s where William spent a lot of his childhood and it’s important to him that his children experience what he did as a young boy."
