When very small, our kids and grandkids got baskets with candy and chocolate and maybe a small toy. The most fun thing to do was dye real (hen's) eggs ...everybody helped on the day before Easter and then we decorated the house with them and ate them for days and days and days!

Their eyes become big and cheeks rosy.So much fun.<br />I like leaving baskets for children at the door so when they open they find it and begin to ask questions as to where it came from. And then you come over and say something like <br />Gosh! Did you see that big rabbit that just high tailed it round the corner? He had a pink/blue tail.lol<br />Kids are so much fun to play with :)I once left one on the car trunk for my son to see and he was flabbergasted to find a basket there.I wonder if he remembers those days.

The Easter bunny almost became extinct a few years ago as some wanted the Australian Bilby (a sort of bandicoot)instead. Now the bunny is back in favour.<br />I like the story about the bells.<br />Happy Easter.Linens and Royalshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07424916243839362866noreply@blogger.com
