Princess Estelle began Aventyret Preschool in Stockholm, Sweden today. The preschool believes that children learn best through being outdoors. Crown Princess Victoria said they chose Aventyret because "they have good teachers, and we [Victoria and Daniel] like that they are out in the wild". The preschool has been open since 1992 and the children do most of their learning outside, in rain or shine. Princess Estelle apparently already knows some of her little playmates, as Victoria's friends recommended Aventyret to her. The full article from Svensk Damtidning:

Aw, I was just thinking the same thing - I wonder if Victoria and Daniel have it pinned up on their fridge? (If a painting or drawing of course!) :D
Speaking as a parent, she could have glued 5 pieces of dried pasta to a paper plate, added a piece of yarn and a Sponge Bob sticker and they'll be absolutely thrilled!!!!!
They do very exciting outdoor nature-type activities at that particular pre-school apparently, so perhaps Estelle will have planted flowers.

This reminds me of my portfolio from pre-school, where I had just scribbled on a piece of paper and the description said "this is a drawing of a snail". :D I probably made pasta plates too.

That is true. Estelle seemed to be a fan of a flower halo (I don't know the correct term) someone had given her at Victoriadagen, so perhaps she made one for Victoria at pre-school. :vday2:
QuotePrincess Estelle of Sweden shines on first day of nursery
26 AUGUST 2014
Princess Estelle of Sweden looked her usual excitable self as she arrived for her first day of nursery on Monday.
The royal darling, who is two-and-a-half-years-old, was accompanied by her proud parents Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel.
Dressed in pale jeans, a floral blue and white top and a grey cardigan, Estelle was picture-perfect as she held her parents' hands and skipped up to the school's entrance.
