Queen Mary looked in high spirits as she visited a children’s nursery in Greenland today.

The 52-year-old royal beamed as she interacted with children at the sustainable Naasut institution in Nuuk, which translates to “flower” in Greenlandic.

The institution collaborates with the Mary Foundation’s anti-bullying programme, called “Free From Bullying”, which has been implemented in the Faroe Islands, Estonia, Iceland, Romania, France and Greenland.

Mary looked every bit the queen in a chic white long-sleeved pleated blouse that she tucked into black skinny jeans.

Mary wore her shiny brown hair down in a wavy hairstyle and opted for natural makeup with a touch of eyeliner and mascara.

In one sweet snap, Mary is seen kneeling down to sit with the children on the floor, as one of them holds a small purple teddy bear in front of her face.

The youngsters were accompanied by the mother of four children while a nursery school teacher held up a colourful book to attract their attention.

Mary and her husband King Frederik, 56, arrived in Greenland with their children Princess Josephine and Prince Vincent on Saturday and are due to leave the country tomorrow.

Yesterday, the Queen helped work on a memorial stone in honour of Greenlandic polar explorer Arnarulunnguaq at a workshop in Nuuk.

On Monday, Frederik and Mary appeared in high spirits as they headed to Attu, where they were greeted by village council chairman Per Ole Frederiksen, who grew up in the town.

The small community, with approximately 170 inhabitants, is located on a smaller island of the same name in the municipality of Qeqertalik.

The couple also received gifts during a Greenlandic tradition called kaffemik, which marks a special social occasion.

The duo, who became King and Queen earlier this year, looked like a happy couple as soon as they landed in Greenland last week.

As one of their first activities, the family visited a whale-microphone viewing platform in Qeqertarsuaq.

But Crown Prince Christian, 18, who celebrated his school graduation last week, and Princess Elizabeth, 17, did not attend.
