Easter custom
Eggs are an essential element of Easter. According to the custom, children will carry small baskets to find the eggs hidden in the garden by adults on Easter Sunday. For a long time, the egg has always been a symbol of life, and it also symbolizes the resurrection of Jesus after his death. Painting eggs, giving them away and eating them were common customs in early Christianity.
Easter lambs originated from Jewish custom. They would slaughter a sheep on Passover Day to commemorate the Jewish ancestors fleeing from Egypt. Christianity also followed this custom, taking sheep as a tribute to commemorate Jesus who died for everyone. Nowadays, people usually bake cakes in the shape of sheep.
