George was happy to keep himself occupied at the visit to Plunket
Kate mingled with the other first-time parents, holding her son, who was dressed in a pair of navy blue dungarees, in her arms
The toy shall be mine! Prince George likes the look of a small doll that one of the other children was playing with and makes a grab for it
The Duchess of Cambridge spoke to a number of parents as the young prince scratched his ears
Quite enthralled with his new toy, George looked up and gurgled in the direction of his mother
He then made his way over to some of the other brightly coloured toys scattered across the floor of the stately home
Kate could barely keep her eyes off her darling George
Plunket, the organisation behind the playdate wrote a special note to Prince George expressing their excitement about meeting him

A few of the other first-time parents gathered around Kate as she lifted her son to his feet. The playgroup is made up of ten families whose children were born within two weeks of George's July 22 birthday
Both Kate and George seemed in high spirits

The adorable eight-month-old appeared relaxed as Kate proudly introduced him to the other first time parents
The Duchess bent down to pick up a toy
The Duchess began chatting to the parents of a blonde-haired totGeorge appeared to do something to upset her
