WHAT SHOULD I HAVE MY COAT OF ARMS?

A playful museum education activity about Christian animal symbols for kindergarteners.

The children participating in the activity set out with Bonifác, the griffin cub “resident” in the Cathedral, to search for animals that strayed from Noah’s Ark. Along the way, they also discover the Cathedral itself.
