Here are five things I learned about the Presidential Seal:
1. The first President who used a presidential seal was Rutherford B. Hayes.
2. In 1880, President Hayes used the seal for White House invitations.
3. President Harry Truman had the seal redesigned on October 26, 1945, adding the circle of stars and re-orienting the eagle towards the right side with the olive branch).
4.The arrows symbolize the acceptance of the need to go to war to protect the country.
5.The eagle is clutching an olive branch with 13 olives and 13 leaves in one foot, symbolizing peace.
Below is a Presidential Seal I created in Kid Pix.
