6 Interesting Easter Traditions

Life

1. Egg Painting  Easter egg traditions go back to ancient times. They coloured the eggs red, which signified Jesus’s blood.

2. Egg Hunts  This fun activity involves hiding eggs outside the house, so children can launch an Easter egg hunt on the day.

3. Egg Rolling This is a symbolic representation of the rolling away of the stone on the tomb of Jesus Christ. 

4. Easter Egg Trees  Painting the small branches of bare trees has become an increasingly popular custom in recent years, since the 1990s. 

5. Pace Egging Children in some European countries go begging for Easter eggs, much like Halloween trick-or-treats. 

6. Other Symbolisms  Apart from bunnies and Easter eggs, lily flowers and baby chicks are an integral part of the celebrations because they signify rebirth.
