Make Your Easter Celebration Extra Special
Just because Easter is traditionally also considered a fun-filled holiday for kids doesn’t mean us grown-ups shouldn’t be able to celebrate too. Sure, egg hunts, baskets full of chocolate bunnies, but people of all ages can get in on the fun and be treated with an Easter gift.
Did you know that the first chocolate eggs appeared in France and Germany in the 19th Century, but they were bitter and hard.As chocolate-making techniques improved, hollow eggs like the ones we have today were developed.
They very quickly became popular and remain a favourite tradition with chocolate-lovers today.
And how about the bunny, well the story of the Easter Bunny is thought to have become common in the 19th Century. Rabbits usually give birth to a big litter of babies, so they became a symbol of new life.
Legend has it that the Easter Bunny lays, decorates and hides eggs as they are also a symbol of new life. This is why some children might enjoy Easter egg hunts as part of the festival. In Switzerland, Easter eggs are delivered by a cuckoo and in parts of Germany by a fox.
