KATE Middleton showed pupils a cute picture of her family as they shared "something that makes them feel good" on a London school visit this morning.

She took out the snap of her, Prince William and her smiling children and popped it on a desk she sat at with a group of pupils, as part of a string of visits marking Children's Mental Health Week.

The picture, taken at Amber Hall in Norfolk last year, shows the Cambridges posing with their children George, Charlotte and Louis and was first released as their family Christmas card.

She told pupils, as she took the photo out of her purse: "This is a photograph of my family, these are my children and this is my husband, and my family makes me happy - we like playing outside together and spending lots of time together and that makes me happy."

Kate arrived first at Lavender Primary School in Enfield, North London before she is due to go to Alperton Community School today - smiling as she was greeted by singing schoolchildren.

The duchess was handed a bunch of flowers by an adorable pupil, who she crouched down to meet this morning.

She was dressed in a green £2,100 Eponine dress with £300 LK Bennett boots for the chilly day out.

The Duchess of Cambridge will also meet the "world's best teacher" during the school visits later today.

The 37-year-old has previously spoken out about the importance of supporting kids' mental health, encouraging them to be comfortable in their own skin.

She even penned a personal essay about mental health issues with Huffington Post UK, writing: "The mental health of our children must be seen as every bit as important as their physical health.

"For too long we have been embarrassed to admit when our children need emotional or psychiatric help, worried that the stigma associated with these problems would be detrimental to their futures."

And she even related her message to her own family, saying: "Like most parents today, William and I would not hesitate to seek help for our children if they needed it.

Writing before youngest Prince Louis was born, she said: "We hope to encourage George and Charlotte to speak about their feelings, and to give them the tools and sensitivity to be supportive peers to their friends as they get older.

"We know there is no shame in a young child struggling with their emotions or suffering from a mental illness."

The mum has been a patron of charity Place2Be since 2013 and has worked with husband Prince William and Prince Harry in their Heads Together campaign.

Making it a priority in her work as a royal, her first public engagement with Prince William since her maternity leave saw her part of the first Global Ministerial Mental Health summit.

The Royals met young people who have either had or are dealing with mental health issues.

Kate's outing today comes after she has focused her royal engagements on meeting kids this year.

She headed to Islington Community Garden last month - but was stumped by one adorable student's question about the Queen.

"Maybe next time I see her, shall I ask?"
