Easter is a Christian festival celebrating Jesus Christ resurrection observed on a Sunday between March 22 and April 25. It features church services, spring imagery, candy hunts, Easter eggs, new spring clothes, and parades such as New York City's Easter Parade.
Easter symbols include the Cross representing Jesus Christ crucifixion and the Lamb often depicted in decorations and paintings. In some lands Easter celebrations feature lights candles and bonfires to mark the holiday.
A child friendly Palm Sunday tale recounts Jesus birth and humble life, his three year ministry healing and teaching, forgiving sins, and his triumphant Jerusalem entry on a donkey as crowds cheer Hosanna. It emphasizes kindness, faith, and the Easter message of hope.
The Easter Egg Roll occurs on the White House lawn the Monday after Easter with free entry for children while adults must be with a child. In 1878 President Rutherford B. Hayes welcomed children to the lawn. Easter Rabbits bring eggs and symbolize new life tied to the holiday.
