Kate Middleton news: Christmas gifts to her kids are treasured hand-me-downs

Kate Middleton already has plans on what to give her two children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, for Christmas, according to PEOPLE.

During her recent trip to North Wales with Prince William, the Duchess of Cambridge talked about the family's plans for the holidays. While she admitted that she has not started preparing for the season, she said two-year-old George would be talking about Yuletide pretty soon. As for her gifts to the kids, Kate shared that she would be passing along knitted woolen sheep, one with a blue ribbon for George and one with pink for six-month-old Charlotte.

The Duchess also provided an insight regarding the relationship between the royal children. During the royal couple's visit to the Men's Shed, a non-profit intended to improve the health of the men of Denbigh, Wales, she said that both were doing well. Kate quipped that George is "a noisy big brother," but Charlotte has no trouble getting along with him.

Meanwhile, recent reports reveal that Kate is keen to launch her own organic food business along with her sister, Pippa. The younger Middleton just finished taking a food nutritionist course in New York earlier this year and the Daily Mail reports that she is excited to concoct healthy recipes for the company. The Duchess is reportedly eyeing the name "Amner Organics" for their business label.

The Middleton's new business venture would be producing organic baby food and grow-your-own vegetable kits. This would not be new to Kate, as she has apparently been feeding her children a diet of fruits and vegetables organically grown in the garden of their Cambridge's Norfolk estate. A source told the newspaper that although it's still being conceptualized, it could happen in a couple of years. The business is also reportedly meant to promote her husband's home.

"It's also important for William to promote his home, Norfolk, in the same way that Charles promotes Cornwall with the Duchy range. You can just imagine the labeling -'home-grown organic produce from Norfolk, home of Prince William'".
