"My name's Catherine. I'm not allowed to write my signature, it's just one of those rules," she told the children.

For the uninitiated, this is actually a rule for the British Royal Family members, prohibiting them from signing autographs.

While Kate followed that rule, she also treated the children with a special souvenir and drew a flower for a 7-year-old girl named Ruby.

The princess also drew a tree for another young girl and a pond with flowers for another child.

Prince and Princess of Wales’ official Instagram account also shared a picture of Kate Middleton during her outing.

"Picnic season is upon us, and so is @the_rhs #ChelseaFlowerShow!" the caption read. "What a lovely lunchtime spent with the next generation of nature-lovers, exploring the gardens and enjoying the first ever Children’s Picnic here at Chelsea."
