  When is Easter?
  Easter is celebrated on the first Sunday after the first full moon in spring. That’s why it’s on a different date each year.
  The word “Easter” comes from “Eostre”, the Anglo-Saxon goddess of spring.
  Christians celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ on Easter Sunday. Many people celebrate the beginning of spring.

  Symbols
  Bunnies, chicks, lambs and flowers (especially lilies and daffodils) are associated with Easter because they are born in the spring.
  The lamb is also a sign of Christ’s sacrifice on the cross.
  The cross was also a well-known symbol before the time of Christ. It was used a special mark on clothes and buildings. However, when Jesus was crucified, the cross became a symbol of suffering.
