This week, Princess Charlotte celebrated her 1st birthday and, as one would expect, she has received some pretty spectacular gifts.

Kensington Palace has reportedly released a list of some of the gifts that the little royal, the second child of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, has received from leaders around the world since she was born.

According to The Independent, the Australian Government sent a blanket made from Tasmanian merino wool and contributed AUS$10,000 to the Healesville Sanctuary.

The Prime Minister of Canada gifted the toddler with a snowsuit and book. He also made a $100,000 donation to a vaccination charity.

After Charlotte was born, the Obamas gave her a rocking chair and a baby blanket while British PM David Cameron bought her a copy of Hans Christian Anderson’s Fairy Tales.

Other presents include silk figurines from the Chinese Government, a silver rattle from the Mexican President and a New Zealand rugby sleepsuit from her uncle, Prince Harry.

A recent statement from Kensington Palace said: “The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are incredibly grateful for all the letters, gifts and good wishes they have been fortunate to receive in the year since Princess Charlotte was born.”

Over the weekend, ahead of the tot’s big milestone, four adorable photographs of her were released on social media. (You can check those out here.)
