I don´t think that she´s already are going to start in school. She can´t be that old...I think that she migthe are going for the kindergarten or the nursery school.

Children begin attending school in Norway at the age of six (it used to be seven, but they changed it a few years back). Ingrid is attending non-mandatory daycare kindergarten, without class-rooms.

Unrelated: I think it is nice that they have these events for the photographers. Then Ingrid gets used to being in the spotlight on big occasions, has her freedom when she plays, and the photographers get pictures of the royal family without getting into disagreements.

Here in Ireland Children go to Playschool around 3 years old and then start school at 4 0r 5 years old, it depends when their birthday falls. Would they learn to count at Kindergarden?

Nice to see Ingrid with her parents, they seem such a loving family. Mette-Marit looks beautiful, motherhood really suits her.

Yes, that's true. But I thought you were allowed to put your child in kindergarten way earlier. I remember going to kindergarten when I was 2 or 3 years old. It wasn't all week, only two days or something like that and my parents decided that it was good for me to meet with other children too (since I was the eldest and my sister wasn't yet born or still very little). Maybe M-M and Haakon thought the same for I-A. :)

Does anyone have the pic when MM cuddles I-A in the first video, it's soooo sweet! and I'd like to see it.

Thanks!

I think kindergarten will be good for Ingrid Alexandra She'll learn new social skills and by able to spend time with "normal' kids her own age.
