Princess Charlotte is up next, and the five-year-old reveals she really likes spiders:
Hello David Attenborough! I like spiders - do you like spiders too?"
The 94-year-old then replied he loved the "wonderful" animals, adding:
"Why is it that people are so frightened of them. I think it's because they have eight legs - much more than us.
"If you've got eight legs you can move in any direction. You can never be quite sure which way that spider is going to go."
He added people were often put off by the hairy legs of spiders - but urged the little princess to watch the insects build their webs.
"It's marvellous."
And last, but not least, it's little Prince Louis's turn. The two-year-old looks into the camera and asks Sir David:
"What animal do you like?"
The 94-year-old reveals his favourite animals were monkeys because they're "such fun".
He added: "They can jump all over the place."
But the environmentalist then admitted you couldn't have a monkey in your home - making the tough choice between a puppy and a kitten.
Eventually, he chose, saying: "I think I'll go for a puppy".
The video was shared earlier today on the Kensington Royal Instagram page, and needless to say, it didn't take long for the comments to flood in.
One person wrote: "What a beautiful, amazing, magical surprise!!! Willam and Kate literally killed me with this cuteness overload."
Another one said: "This is a great example of connecting the next generation, well done David and the little munchkins."
A third person commented: "They are so cute, he answers them very simply and clearly for their age!"
The video was shared after David Attenborough joined Prince William and his family for a screening of his new documentary.Explore more on these topics:
