Sugar rush! Prince Louis enjoyed a round of s’mores with his family during his first royal engagement.
The 5-year-old took a break from volunteering at the 3rd Upton Scout Group on Monday, May 8, to enjoy the campfire dessert with other kids. Footage captured by the Daily Mail showed his mom, Princess Kate, and another volunteer assembling a s’more for Louis, who was previously caught chowing down on a marshmallow on a skewer.
Once he was given the sweet treat, Louis took a bite and had a blissful smile on his face as he danced around in a circle. He ran into his older sister, Princess Charlotte, 8, and hugged Kate, 41, while clutching his snack.
Also present at the event were Prince William and Prince George, 9. The family spent the day helping with renovations at a scout hut near Windsor Castle as part of The Big Help Out following King Charles III’s coronation. Kate, for her part, is the joint President of the Scout Association alongside Prince Edward.
“The Big Help Out will highlight the positive impact volunteering has on communities across the nation,” read an announcement on the royal family’s website revealing the plans for the volunteer festivities. “In tribute to His Majesty The King’s public service, The Big Help Out will encourage people to try volunteering for themselves and join the work being undertaken to support their local areas.”
With their parents’ supervision, Louis was spotted pushing a wheelbarrow full of dirt, while George was in charge of the power tools. Charlotte, for her part, decided to take up painting. The trio later tried their hand at archery.
