On the 29th of September 2016, William and Kate took Prince George and Princess Charlotte to a Children’s Garden Party in Canada.

The visit took place during the Royal Couple’s official visit to Canada.

It’s the second time the public saw the children on the tour.

Prior to the children’s party, we saw George and Charlotte at the airport briefly, on the first day.

The party took place ub the beautiful grounds of Government House in Victoria.

The organisers invited a group of military families to enjoy the party.

24 other children attended along with Prince George and Princess Charlotte.

In a press release ahead of the tour, the Palace said young party guests could expect “plenty of surprises”.

The surprises included miniature ponies to ride:

Though a certain young Princess was far more interested in the balloon arch:

It looks like the children had lots of fun:

I just had to share this adorable father and son moment:

Of course, this wasn’t the first time Prince George partied with other children during a Royal Tour.

You may recall he had a playdate in New Zealand back in 2014.  You can read more about that event here.

Kate’s outfit:

Kate chose a cream See by Chloé dress for the children’s party.

Kate Middleton's Cream See by Chloe dress from the garden party

The fit-and-flare dress features a high neckline that’s ruffled, long sleeves with flared cuffs and a softly pleated knee-length skirt.  The dress is made from a pointelle knit cotton mix fabric.  The bodice features cut-out detailing.  The dress is from the label’s Fall ’16 collection.

The dress was available to purchase at Saks Fifth Avenue where it retailed for $460 USD. Nordstrom also stocked the dress.  They described it as follows:

“A high ruffled neckline adds a touch of demure Victorian style to a gorgeous dress that pairs a geometric lace-jersey bodice with a solid stretch-twill skirt.”

Kate wore the dress belted.

The cream leather belt features a gold-tone buckle fastening.  It is from Acne Studios.  It was made in Italy and retailed for $180 USD on Net-A-Porter.com.   (Now sold out).

Kate paired the dress with her biscuit-coloured Monsoon wedges:

Sadly, the shoes are sold out, though the company do re-release them from time to time.  You can read more information about the wedges on this page. (Pictured below on another occasion.)

Kate chose her Kiki McDonough Lauren leaf-shaped earrings for the party.  The £2,200 earrings are made from 18ct gold and feature pavé diamonds. (Pictured below on another occasion.)

    In the photo of Charlotte standing by the white dog I think the little princess looks remarkably like Princess Margaret’s daughter Lady Sarah when she was a child.

    She is very sweet. I thought in some pictures she reminded me of the Queen!
