Parenting on Female First

Dress them in the best

The royals are renowned for their pristine clothing and the children are no exception. So today why not pull out their best outfit and put it on them so they feel like one of the family? Which brings me onto my next point…

Take a photograph

There are so many beautiful photographs of the royal children so it would be rude not to follow suit. If you are going to the trouble of dressing them in their finest attire- take a photograph to mark the occasion. It will make for a good story when your child is all grown up.

Call them by their full name

Today is not a day for nicknames and first names only- it’s the perfect time to call your child by their full name- no exceptions.
