Christian has changed a lot! He seems to resemble Mary more than Frederik now, but I can still see some Frederik mannerisms  It seems like he'll grow up to be a rather handsome when he's an adult.
Grace looks less keen to be in the photos!

I think this is the first glimpse we get of Josephine and tennis, but I bet Vincent is probably practicing too. The whole family seems to enjoy tennis.

It's great to see that both Josephine and Isabella are keen tennis players. I like how the website of Isabella's tennis club mentioned Isabella in with the rest of the girls who also received awards as I know for a lot of RFs the schools/clubs their children participate in often refrain from mentioning them on the website (for understandable reasons).

Here is an article in English about Holger:
https://www.itftennis.com/313553?channel=itfjuniorsnews
I have a feeling we may see the M&F children in connection with Holger again in the future.
It is mentioned in the article, that he is a big hit with the young girls...

The court has confirmed to BB that Christian will be confirmed at some point in the Spring. - I.e. at around the time, when everybody else are confirmed.
No specific date is mentioned.

No idea.
Fredensborg Palace Church might be a good guess. Other DRF members have been confirmed there, including Nikolai and Felix.
But Christian is special, so perhaps Christiansborg Church, the seat of the Parliament. As a future heir, this may be bigger than the other DRF children's confirmations, so politicians and other dignitaries may attend.
Or the Naval Church because it is so closely linked to the DRF.
Or Copenhagen Cathedral because Christian is special and because it's located near Amalienborg. (Not sure if it's the parish-church for Amalienborg.)
Or he may be confirmed with his classmates at a church near his school. - Don't think so though.

That would be very short after their return from Switzerland.
They are starting on January 6, so if it's straight 12 weeks their final day of school will be March 27. I don't know what kind of preparation a Lutheran confirmation in Denmark normally involves but the timing with Christian being away in the months leading up to his confirmation is most likely not ideal - so early Spring (Palm Sunday is on April 5) seems too early.
Hopefully one of our members from Denmark can enlighten us about the preparation: how much would the school be involved or is it something fully organized by the local parish? And in either case: what would be the normal preparation in terms of time and activities a confirmant is expected to go through?

Does anyone know where I might find full coverage of the following:
The full Christening ceremony of Prince Christian on 21 January, 2006?
There is a small 9 minute and 6 minute segment on YouTube, compared to the other three children?
Also, I was looking for the thread about the Christening on the Royal Forum, but could find nothing, apart from a few comments about godparents, and then the thread was closed?
Many thanks everyone.
Hello everyone
Just found the Christening (Royal Forum) thread for 21 January 2006 (Prince Christian).
Am hoping to find the Danish Broadcasting company that still has the two hour broadcast of the Christening in full.

Did a quick check, none of the main networks seems to have the christening in full.

None that I know of.
There were videos sold of M&F's wedding but that's about it.

Re: Prince Christian's Christening; 21 January 2006
It's so frustrating that every time you click on a link; they lead nowhere, on reading the Christening thread (29 pages).
I don't see why the pictures shouldn't still be there.
No broadcasting footage available.
All the picture links gone.
I never had access to a computer, but other royal christenings from earlier times seem easier to obtain? Why have all the pictures disappeared? Hello Magazine may have a back issue, but it's not looking promising.

I think there are videos of the christening of Prince Christian on YouTube.
