King Charles is renowned for his dedication as a grandfather, often spending quality time with the youngest members of the Royal Family. Over the years, he has been known to share charming
anecdotes about his grandchildren with the public and frequently makes plans to visit them. The King is the proud grandfather to five children: Prince George, Princess Charlotte, Prince
Louis, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. He also plays the role of step-grandfather to Queen Camilla's five grandchildren, Lola and Freddie Parker-Bowles and Eliza, Gus and Louis
Lopes. In addition to sharing delightful stories, the King is also known for his generous gifts to his grandchildren. For George's first birthday, the King had an extraordinary gift
installed at his Gloucestershire residence, Highgrove House. A Victorian-style 'Shepherd's hut', gifted by Dorset-based company Plankbridge, was presented to the young prince,
reports OK!. The hut, complete with a wood-burning stove and day bed, can be seen by visitors during guided tours of The King's gardens. It is believed that the hut is a favourite play
spot for George, Charlotte and Louis. When they tire of the playhouse, the Wales children can also enjoy the treehouse built for Prince William in 1989. Originally installed for
William's 7th birthday, the wooden house has since been refurbished for King Charles' grandchildren to enjoy. The King has made a touching tribute to his eldest grandson, George,
by naming a woodland after him. During an appearance on the One Show, the King discussed sustainable living and revealed the story behind Prince George's Wood. "This was a rather
empty field that the farm didn't need anymore. The great thing was that I managed to plant it the same year that my grandson was born, the eldest, George, so I thought I'd call it
Prince George's wood." Royal expert and author Robert Jobson has suggested that George's relationship with his grandfather is being nurtured through regular "informal
chats" hinting at a special bond similar to the one William had with Queen Elizabeth II. Jobson noted: "You sense, just like William's relationship with the late Queen,
Elizabeth II, when he was an Eton schoolboy, George's close bond with the King will be important in preparing for his future role." Former BBC Royal correspondent Jennie Bond also
commented on the significance of these early experiences, telling OK!: "When you've had a wonderful experience in life, it's natural to want to replicate it for your children
and grandchildren. "Charles had a magical relationship with his grandmother, the Queen Mother. And I'm sure his dearest wish is to give George and his other grandchildren a similar
strong and loving relationship." Jennie Bond, the Royal expert, also shared: "For all his serious ponderings on the state of the world and in spite of his heavy workload, Charles
is quite a soppy old thing really and I'm sure he hugely values the time he has available to spend with his grandchildren."
