From the lens The Origin Of Easter.

Have any games or foods that can be used as dye? Want to share favorite Easter stories? Leave me a message, I may add it to the lens later.

    Just got home from work, and as you didn't say what timezone you're in, I'm going to guess that it's already past 9pm for you. Unfortunately, all I know about Easter I've put into this lens. Easter was never a Christian holiday, or at least not as we know it now. It was a Pagan holiday that the Christians took and changed as I said near the top of this lens. For a more in-depth answer about what Christian celebration was most like it before it was changed, you would most likely have to do a Google search or look it up in the library. Sorry.

    Love the homemade dyes recipes! When my children were little, I used the commercial dyes, but always worried a little bit because sometimes the dye would bleed through onto the eggs. Being boys, both of them always managed to scarf down the eggs before I could inspect them. Oh, well...they are grown men now so I guess it didn't do them too much harm. :)

    Why do some cultures have an Easter Rabbit and some an Easter Egg

    Glad I could help! Figured I'd post the Easter Bunny origin on your lens as that's what seems to be the most frequent search around the holiday.

    Odd you posted on the new Share A Fact Lens. A few friends were gathered talking about the origin of Christmas and somehow we got to talking about Easter also. No one was 100% convinced how Easter oringinally got started. The next time we all get together I'll be able to enlighten everyone. Thank you.

    An Easter egg isn't a real Easter egg unless it's a Cadburys one - made in England of course, not by Hersheys... Nice lens, put me in a chocolate mood! 5 ***** from me.
