This rare footage of Queen Elizabeth as a child is amazing.
In the footage from the Royal Collection Trust shared in 2020, we can see Queen Elizabeth (who was Princess Elizabeth at the time) playing with a young Princess Margaret. Queen Elizabeth can be saying playing in the garden and horseriding in this incredible black-and-white footage.

The @royalfamily account also shared some lovely photos of Queen Elizabeth over the years and some information regarding the work that Queen Elizabeth carries out. After outlining everything that Queen Elizabeth does in her work, they stressed the important role the Royal Family plays in supporting her;
'The Queen carries out all of her duties against the backdrop of a full personal life which has seen her raise four children and welcome grandchildren, and now great-grandchildren to the Royal Family. The Duke of Edinburgh has been – in her own words – her ‘strength and stay’ during her reign, whilst other members of the Royal Family continue to offer vital support through their work in the UK and overseas.'
Head of the Commonwealth, Head of the Armed Forces, Head of State in 16 countries and the longest reigning Monarch in British History. Wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.
Happy birthday, Your Majesty! ✨ pic.twitter.com/fusEVFsAJT
