Mum-of-three Kate backed the launch of the ‘Tiny Happy People’ programme launched by the BBC, offering new parents a new range of free online tools including activities, videos, articles and quizzes launched to support development of under-fives language and communications skills.

The duchess, mother to Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, has been secretly involved since last year when she visited Broadcasting House in November to work on some of the video resources and social media content during a creative workshop.
