Winter weather isn't going to slow this duchess down.

On Friday, Kate Middleton volunteered with Scout leaders and kids at a training event in Cumbria, a county in northwest England. The pregnant royal worked with Beaver Scouts (6-8 years old) and Cub Scouts (8-10 years old).

Wearing jeans, boots, a green hat and several layers of clothing, the mom-to-be also wore a very important accessory: her red, white and blue kerchief!

Prince William's wife appeared to be enjoying herself at the Pack Holiday Event, where under the guidance of newly trained leaders (including the duchess), young Scouts tried out tree climbing, outdoor cooking and fire lighting.

Clearly, Kate's a natural at working with all the kids she meets. We can't wait to see how great she is with her and William's own little boy or girl.
