The 34-year-old royal visited North Wootton, which is just down the road from her home, Amner Hall in Norfolk, East Anglia, where she was greeted by a group of young scouts.

Nine-year-old Dylan McKenna told of how impressed the Duchess of Cambridge was his job of putting her arm in a sling.

He told press at the centre: "It was fun putting her arm in a sling as I was one of the only ones. She said I did a good job.

"She said, 'Well done, I'm very impressed with this.

"She kept the sling on for a wee bit then took it off.

"She asked me what badges I got and how much I enjoy Cubs."

The brunette beauty - who has three-year-old Prince George and 19-month-old Princess Charlotte with her husband Prince William, also 34 - also talked to 10-year-old Klaudia Lovic about her son George's ride on a pony.

She told PEOPLE: "It was awesome meeting her.

"When she asked me what I liked to do, I said I like ponies, and she asked me if I had been for a pony ride. She said when George went on a pony it was called Moo-Moo. I told her I might go for a pony ride on my birthday."

On meeting the Duchess, Cub Scout leader Hazel Colley said: Meeting the Duchess has been the best birthday present this Cub Scout Pack could have possibly imagined

"It's an evening that they will never forget, and the most exciting thing that has happened to me in all my time as a volunteer. The Duchess helped our Cub Scouts learn valuable skills for life and in reality that's what Scouting is all about, adults and young people alike having fun, enjoying new adventures and learning new skills."
