This past month, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/1114530\/kate-middleton-recalls-feeling-isolated-after-welcoming-prince-george\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kate launched<\/a>&nbsp;the &#8220;Five Big Questions&#8221; survey, which asks those across the U.K. to generate conversation surrounding the importance and long-term impact of a person&#8217;s earliest years.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When asked to share which aspects from her own childhood she hopes to pass on to her own children, Kate had this to say.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;One is quality of relationships,&#8221; the royal shared. &#8220;So, those moments that you spend with people that are around you. I remember that from my own childhood. I had an amazing Granny who devoted a lot of time to us, playing with us, doing arts and crafts and going to the greenhouse to do gardening, and cooking with us, and I try and incorporate a lot of the experiences that she gave us at the time into the experiences that I give my children now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-2\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"60\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"10\">\n<p>She continued, &#8220;There are also the environments you spend time in as well: a happy home, a safe environment. As children, we spent a lot of time outside and it&#8217;s something I&#8217;m really passionate about. I think it&#8217;s so great for physical and mental wellbeing and laying [developmental] foundations. It&#8217;s such a great environment to spend time in, building those quality relationships without the distractions of \u2018I&#8217;ve got to cook&#8217; and \u2018I&#8217;ve got to do this&#8217;. And actually, it&#8217;s so simple.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-3\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"61\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"12\">\n<p>As for the survey, which is the culmination of eight years of research by Kate on the topic, she said it aims to create &#8220;generational change&#8221; for families.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Kate described, &#8220;It&#8217;s going to take a long time\u2014I&#8217;m talking about a generational change\u2014but hopefully this is the first small step: to start a conversation around the importance of Early Childhood development. It&#8217;s not just about happy, healthy children.
