Easter in the USA <\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
It’s almost time to get out the paint and brushes to start decorating those Easter eggs. Yes, Easter is just around the corner!Easter is a very important\u00a0celebration for many people in the USA with different \u00a0traditions all over the country. Shops and homes will be decorated with\u00a0Easter Bunnies and little yellow chicks and most families decorate Easter eggs with their children.\u00a0<\/p>\n

An Easter favourite is a game for children called Egg Rolling.\u00a0 It is a race where children push a decorated boiled egg through the grass with a wooden club. Whoever reaches the finish line first, without breaking the egg, wins. This game is so popular that the US president invites families to the White House for a game of Egg Rolling each Easter Monday – this tradition started in 1878.<\/p>\n

Another common Easter tradition is an Easter egg hunt. The ‘Easter bunny’ hides real\u00a0and artificial eggs filled with surprises, for children to find. Whoever finds the most eggs is the winner, and everybody gets to keep the treasures and Easter surprises they found. For the Easter egg hunt, children make or buy special baskets to place all the eggs in.<\/p>\n

This Easter, get out the paint and brushes and join in the fun!\u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
