Jessa took to Instagram on Tuesday to post two videos and a photo of her kids dancing while out to lunch.

In the first clip, Henry spun Ivy around before they ran off with Spurgeon and the oldest Seewald child began to spin around with his sister.

Spurgeon and Ivy continued to dance together in the second clip.

The siblings adorably held hands as they spun around in a circle, while Henry got in on the action by grabbing his brother and sister’s hands.

The Instagram post concluded with a photo of Jessa’s husband Ben Seewald, 26, sitting at a table outdoors as their three oldest kids held hands in the background.

Alongside the post, the Counting On alum wrote: “Everyone wants to dance with the princess.”

In addition to their three oldest kids, Jessa and Ben also share eight-month-old daughter Fern.

Shortly after Jessa shared the videos and photos, her fans rushed to the comments section to gush over the sweet moment.

One person wrote: "This is actually the cutest."

Another added: "You have such sweet children! I love watching them get along so well!"

SLAMMING JIM BOB

Others praised Jessa for allowing her kids to dance, which goes against her father Jim Bob's strict rules.

Not being allowed to dance is one of the many strict rules that patriarch Jim Bob, 55, and matriarch Michelle, 54, have established as part of their conservative Christian lifestyle.

One fan commented: "Don't take this the wrong way - but I love that you let your kiddos dance!!"

A following person slammed Jim Bob and Michelle's strict modesty rules, writing: "To imagine parents viewing this as sinful… it’s such an innocent and natural self expression and so essential to mental wellbeing.

"Well done Jessa for discarding that rule!"

RULE BREAKER

Letting her kids dance is not the only way Jessa has defied her parents' strict rules.

Earlier this month, Jessa shared a vlog that gave fans a look at her “extra special date night” with Ben.

During the outing, the mother of four defied the modesty rules by wearing a sweater with a pair of tight, black jeans with a rip on the thigh that showed off some skin.

Counting On fans admitted they were shocked by the reality star's venture into less conservative clothing and shared their reactions online.

One asked on Reddit: "I haven’t kept up with the duggars but Jessa is wearing pants now? And ripped jeans at that?!"

A third applauded Jessa, saying: "Late to the party, but eternally grateful to see Blessa wearing some ripped jeans and tearing s**t up! It's about time!"
