Queen Silvia's Instagram post spreads Christmas cheer with her as she decorates a tree with her eight adorable grandkids. The Royal Palace expresses gratitude to the forestry students from SLU in Umeå, Sweden, for delivering this year's Christmas tree. The video captures the vibrant energy of the youngsters, all aged between 2 and 11, as they enthusiastically participate in the holiday tradition.

Queen Silvia's affection for her grandchildren is evident in both her actions and words, as she once noted, "Grandchildren are the dessert in life that you can simply enjoy." The children, including Estelle, Oscar, Alexander, Gabriel, Julian, Leonore, Nicolas, and Adrienne, appear to share a strong bond, with the older ones assisting their younger siblings in placing the festive decorations.

The prospect of their family celebration, taking place in Stockholm before Christmas, promises to be a joyous occasion, especially as Queen Silvia prepares to celebrate her 80th birthday on December 23rd. The Swedish royal family, known for their closeness and charitable endeavors, will no doubt make the most of this festive season.
