For the first time, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis rode in a carriage together for the annual Trooping the Colour parade, as the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations kicked off in London on Thursday.
The children rode with their mother, Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge (aka Kate Middleton), and step-grandmother, Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall. Their father, Prince William, the Duke of Cambridge, participated in the military parade on horseback.

Trooping the Colour is the annual parade held in honor of the monarch's birthday. This year's parade is particularly significant because of the Jubilee — and it makes sense that the Cambridge children, who are third, fourth, and fifth in the line of succession, participated.

In past years, the Cambridge children have only appeared on the Buckingham Palace balcony with their parents at the end of the parade, so this is a big change.
