Kate Middleton Showed Her Mom Skills With Some Quick Thinking

Whether you're taking your kid to school or out doing some shopping, any mom can recognize the signs of a child in need. So even during a royal visit, Kate Middleton takes time out of her day to make sure a little one is okay.

Expecting her third baby in April, the Duchess of Cambridge came across a young boy who looked sick when she and Prince William were visiting Coventry.

That's when she immediately sprung into action.

Craig Skipper is a 10-year-old student at Corpus Christi, who had been waiting for three hours in the cold with the hopes to catch a glimpse of the royal couple's arrival.

"He went quite pale," Flynn said. "She came over to speak to him, and noticed he was not very well. She asked if he was okay. She bent down and was concerned."

Kate then went over to talk to one of her bodyguards. She returned to the young boy with a brown paper bag, in case he got sick.

"Princess Kate came over and give him a sickbag, our little Craig," Carole Flynn, a learning mentor at Corpus Christi primary school, said. "I think he was a little bit overcome."

Fortunately the bag turned out to not be necessary.

"He is a little bit better now," Flynn added.

The Duchess had met the boy on a walkabout outside the Coventry Cathedral. They toured the ruins of the famed Coventry Cathedral before visiting the new cathedral. After meeting members of the choir, they enjoyed a cup of tea with staff and volunteers.

"It was lovely of her," Flynn said. "She really took time with him. You can tell she is a mom, and has got that caring side."

Kate wasn't the only one to put her parenting skills to the test during the visit. Prince William also expertly calmed down a little girl in the crowd who was crying because she wanted a hot chocolate.
