Legend has it that the Easter Bunny lays, decorates and hides eggs for good children, as they are also a symbol of new life. This is why some children might enjoy Easter egg hunts as part of the festival. The Easter bunny doesn't do all the work alone though!
As part of the legend, the creature carries colored eggs in its basket, as well as candy, and sometimes toys, to the homes of children. As such, the Easter Bunny again shows similarities to Santa (or the Christkind) and Christmas by bringing gifts to children on the night before a holiday.
Secondly, rabbits are often associated with springtime, as they emerge from their burrows after winter hibernation, mirroring the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The Easter Bunny's significance lies in its role as a bearer of joy and abundance.
Whether or not the Easter Bunny is real is up to the child who chooses to believe or not. It's also up to the parents to decide how to approach the subject of whether the Easter Bunny is real to their children. Dr.
The Easter Bunny is a rabbit that delivers presents and eggs to children on Easter. The tradition goes back a very long way just like the ones about Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy. His real name is Peter Cottontail, just like how Santa's real name is either Saint Nicholas or Kris Kringle.
Sometime in the 1600s, the Germans converted the pagan rabbit image into Oschter Haws, a rabbit that was believed to lay a nest of colored eggs as gifts for good children. Since males don't lay eggs, one would surmise the 'Easter Bunny' must then be female.
Jesus came to earth to save humanity by dying on the cross on Good Friday and resurrecting on Easter Sunday. By enduring and defeating death sacrificially for people, He swung open the gates of heaven making a way for sins to be forgiven and usher Christians into the presence of God (Romans 5:8)."
Many responded that of course there's no limit on the tradition. Others thought that by a certain age, kids should outgrow egg hunts and a belief in the Easter bunny, but Easter baskets? The consensus was clear: No one is too old.
While your tweens might not still believe in the Easter bunny, you know that they still will love to receive an Easter Basket, especially if they have siblings that still believe. We have found lots of cool, non-candy Tween Boy Easter Basket Ideas to fill Your kids' baskets.
