It looks like Kate Middleton definitely is a "different kind of royal." In fact, a new report says the Duchess is working hard to ensure that her children have a very normal upbringing, and that's why she's willing to set up play dates for her 2-year-old son Prince George with his pre-school friends.

According to the Irish Independent on Wednesday, both the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are skipping royal protocol by allowing their young son to socialize with friends his age at the Westacre Montessori School in Norfolk. In fact, they are even inviting parents over to their home with their kids.

A source close to the royal couple said, "Kate and William will be getting involved in Prince George's nursery life. They won't ever want him to feel isolated or different from the other children, so that means plenty of play dates with his classmates."

In fact, the Duke and Duchess have been socializing with the locals for years now as they are eager to have as many "normal" friends in their inner circle as possible.

The insider added, "Kate and William are very sociable and want to get involved in all aspects of his nursery life, which includes meeting his new friends. There would be security checks on parents coming into their home and personal 'family areas' of the estate would be out of bounds, but there are plenty of communal areas where George's friends can visit."

So far Buckingham Palace hasn't made any comments on the report.
