Easter, also called Resurrection Day, is a holiday. Among Christians, it is a celebration of Jesus Christ returning from the dead. Christians believe that it is the holiest day in the year. Some people who are not Christians celebrate it as the beginning of Spring.
Today, people celebrate Easter in a number of different ways: they give each other or hide to have children find, colourful Easter eggs; they also give each others candy. Sometimes they even give each other baby ducks, chickens, or bunnies as presents, though this is not done as much as it used to be. These ways of celebrating have nothing to do with Christianity. They come from the spring celebrations from old European nature religions. Christians, and even some people who are not Christians, dress very nicely and go to church on Easter Sunday. Large dinners are usually held on Easter afternoon as well.
