Charles And Camilla To Tour Canada
Last year around this time, a royal couple visited Canada.
Prince William (second in line to the throne of England) had just gotten married to Catherine Middleton and the two spent much of their honeymoon touring Canada.
Next month Canada will get a visit from another royal couple—this time, it’s the father of the groom. Prince Charles is William’s father.
Charles is first in line to the throne. That means that when his mother—Queen Elizabeth—steps down, Charles will become king.
Charles will come to Canada with his second wife, Camilla.
Charles’ first wife was one of the most well-known and popular celebrities in the world, Princess Diana.
(Princess Di, as she was known, was killed in a car crash in 1997. When that happened, millions of people around the world mourned.)
Charles and Camilla will tour New Brunswick, Ontario and Saskatchewan from May 20 to 23.
Why You Shouldn’t Tell Will To Keep His Fork
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (Will and Kate) are coming to Canada this week.
There is certain etiquette–things you should and should not do–in dealing with, and speaking to, royalty.
Etiquette is a type of “manners.”
It can also be called “protocol” in the case of the royals.
For instance, protocol demands that Will and Kate be addressed as “Your Royal Highness,” followed by “sir” or “ma’am.”
Men can then bow from the neck and ladies can curtsy to the royals.
Over the years there have been plenty of “breaches of protocol” — mistakes that people have made around royalty.

While Will has been here twice before (in 1991 and 1998) it will be Kate’s first time visiting Canada.
Wacky (And Tacky) Royal Wedding Souvenirs
There is lots of excitement building about the upcoming wedding between Prince William and the soon-to-be Princess Kate. They will be married on April 29 in London, England.
When there’s a big wedding—particularly if it involves the Royal family—people like to have a souvenir, or keepsake, to remind them of the big day. Lots of companies are churning out products with Kate’s and William’s picture on them. Some of them are nice but more often than not the products can be quite cheap and tacky and that’s part of the fun of it all.
One company created special PEZ dispensers with William’s and Kate’s faces on them. Kate is wearing the blue dress she wore during her engagement photos, and William is wearing a black suit and red tie. PEZ dispensers are meant to be filled with a special PEZ candy.
