Princess Mary of Denmark, 36, visited a Copenhagen school on Friday to help promote the initiative Save the Children Better Buddies, a program that hopes to end bullying in Danish schools by teaching children to care about one another.

As a mother of two children — Prince Christian, 2, and Princess Isabella, who will be turning 1 at the end of April — she has children’s needs close to her heart. The anti-bullying program is based on a similar program that began in Mary’s native Australia.

When some of the students began skipping rope during the visit, Mary was supportive of their efforts and began leaping several inches off of the ground herself. Mary is never shying away from getting into the middle of the action as long as it is for a good cause. She once surprised a group of people by taking off her shoes at a children’s play area and trying out a trampoline at a similar venue.

Mary is married to Frederik, Crown Prince of Denmark, 39.

Grey’s Anatomy’s Katherine Heigl wed musician Josh Kelley last December and just three months into married life, she is already talking babies. Recently speaking with British tabloid The Sunday Times, the actress echoed earlier comments by admitting that even though she is keen to start, husband Josh, 28, feels slightly different.

I think he’d prefer to wait a little more time, but I kind of wouldn’t.

However, Katherine, 29, is quick to add that it would be "foolish" to waste current career opportunities.

I think we’ll meet somewhere in the middle.

My little girl is a fashion force to be reckoned with, obviously this is my doing. So, on the odd day that she does rock a t-shirt and jeans it has to be a shirt with a statement! And that’s why I really LOVE the Vera Plum line. The tees come with great and unique graphics on them and it doesn’t stop there. This great line will also include products for Mom AND Dad and blankets and room decor items very soon. It’s like a one-stop shop for stylish stuff for the whole family.

My fave tee in the line is "Word to my Mom". My daughter received tons of comments on this particular shirt and I love putting her in it. I also like the Skully Rock Tee for a little punk outfit attitude.
