Who does Prince Christian look like?
I found this page on tv2.dk website:
http://nyhederne-dyn.tv2.dk/article.php/id-3034700.html
You can vote for the Danish royal baby to whom Christian bears the most strong resemblance. Well, the choices aren't all Danish royal babies: There's Queen Margrethe, Prince Henrik, Princes Nikolai and Felix, King Christian IX, and King Christian X. So mostly Danish.

I think Christian is a mix of CP Mary and his grandfather Henrik (same smile and cheeks)

In the pictures that I have seen of Mary's mother she had strawberry blonde hair and blue eyes. Her mother was quite pretty.

I expect that his strawberry blonde will darken into his dad's light brown hair as he ages. Remember CP Felipe of Spain's hair was blonde until he was ten or so!
He has Mary's eyes and nose. He's so cute!

I agree with crisinaki about how much he looks like Grandpa Henrik. That was my first thought from the first pictures of him.

Just because Frederick and Mary are not blonde it doesn't mean their children can't. Queen Margrethe and her sister were all blonde as well as Prince Joachim as a child and I believe that Prince Henrik was blonde too.
It's in Christian's genes.

Yeah, Fred definitely carries a blond gene in his DNA. Margrethe was not exactly blond, though her hair was light as a child, but Anne-Marie was blond all her life, wasn't she? I don't remember all of them, but they definitely have plenty of blond ancestors. But we'll have to see how Christian's looks pan out. The hair might darken. It is more of a strawberry blond though, isn't it? His hair is gorgeous. It's funny how DNA works, I never thought Fred and Mary would have a child with quite such light hair, but DNA can be a strange and fascinating thing.

Royal babies throughout history have been blonde and then their hair has gradually turned darker. For example, all of George V's sons were blonde as babies, but when they grew up, their hair darkened. Christian's hair will probably get darker as he gets older. Wasn't CP Pavlos a blonde as a little boy?

He got some very exquisite gifts for his first birthday. There are quite a few articles in the Danish sites about his "harmonika" (the picture looks like what in English you would say is an accordian) that was handcrafted and painted blue for him, imported from Italy, and it is the sole replica of a special accordian that was made in Frankfort, Germany. It was imported by a very fine Danish instrument-maker.
Also he had several fine gifts from the Australian consulate.

This is my first post. It is lovely to see all the wonderful photos and to hear what you all have to say about the family.
How magical to receive such beautiful and important gifts on your first birthday. I'm sure his parents will make him aware of their significance when he is a little older. In the meantime, he looks as though he adores pretending to be a bear, and playing on his swing.
I also think that Christian looks like a thoughful child.
