Its never too early to get your children familiar with heraldry and its symbols. With this in mind we've designed these melamine breakfast sets for youngsters so they can get a handle on this noble tradition...

The
lion is the symbol of
valour,
strength and all that gubbins. This one is
'Statant' (all four feet on the floor) as we fancy folk say.
Grrrr
Daaw. Here's a little one.
This lion is smiling. Look, its even got smiling eyes. (grrr)
Unicorns were popularly considered to be
WILD beasts and in heraldry were shown in chains.
Not these little darlings though. Our unicorns are a little bit frisky, but not exactly rampant.
