Watch: Meghan Markle, Prince Harry's Kids Archie, Lilibet Serve Up Cuteness at Pre-Thanksgiving Event

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are cooking up something—and for a good cause.

Ahead of Thanksgiving, the couple and their kids Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 4, spent Nov. 26 preparing meals for the Los Angeles community. 

Their nonprofit Archewell Foundation partnered with Our Big Kitchen Los Angeles (OBKLA) to make and package meals that, according to a press release, "will reach local schools, shelters, senior centers, and other community organizations serving our neighbors in need."

The Suits alum shared snaps of the experience on her Instagram Stories, including one of her smiling and holding Lilibet's hand as Harry—donning an OBKLA apron and Archewell embroidered hat—poured ground beef over rice into containers.

In another, Meghan—who opted for a black apron with "Archewell Foundation" stitched above the pocket—beamed while she and her husband rolled out cookie dough on baking sheets with the help of their kids.

Meghan Markle Shares Sweet Way Daughter Lilibet Is Following in Her Footsteps

Alongside the royally sweet montage of photos and link to their foundation, the 44-year-old simply wrote, "Show up, do good."

For Meghan and Harry, 41, including Archie and Lilibet in their day-to-day work has become a regular occurrence. In fact, the With Love, Meghan star revealed that their daughter is already following in her entrepreneurial footsteps.  

"My office is right by the kitchen, and I love that I can work from home," she told Harper's Bazaar earlier this month. "It's a great luxury."

And Lilibet, she explained, "comes and sits on my lap when I'm in the middle of the meeting, whether it's about P and L [profit and loss] for my brand or it's about something creative."

She hopes her kids take note of how she has pushed boundaries.

"I hope they see the value of being brave," she said. "They saw it when the jam was just a pot on the stove, bubbling. When you're young. I think you are a little bit more fearless. As we get older, we lose some of that."

She's also picked up some skills from them, too.

"If it all goes swimmingly, you don't learn from it," Meghan reflected. "If you don't learn anything, you're not going to grow. I'm a mom with kids at that age where they are constantly learning something new. I watch them face things that feel completely insurmountable every day."

"But you can remember and say, 'I know it seems really hard right now, but trust me, that's going to come so easily soon,'" she continued. "I can give myself the same grace as a founder. There's no such thing as perfect. I, too, get to make mistakes."

Now, take a bow for some of Meghan and Harry’s sweetest family moments.
