The US president and his wife Michelle also gifted the son of Britain's Prince William and Duchess Catherine with a blue alpaca wool blanket and a polo mallet made from the branch of an oak tree which once stood on the south lawn of the White House after his birth on July 22 last year.

The details of the gifts were made public ahead of the opening of the 'Royal Childhood' exhibit at Buckingham Palace on Saturday.

They will be on display along with a number of other presents the young royal received.

The exhibition will last for eight weeks while his grandmother Queen Elizabeth takes her annual trip to Balmoral Castle in Scotland.

Other presents received by the tot include a miniature Barclays bike from London mayor, Boris Johnson.

The exhibit will also give a glimpse into the childhood of the older royals, with Prince William's geography workbook, Prince Harry's Winnie-the-Pooh nursery chair and Queen Elizabeth's Girl Guides badges all on display.
