What came first, the bunny or the egg? In many cultures, the egg symbolizes new life and rebirth, making it a fitting symbol for springtime celebrations. The tradition of hiding eggs likely originated in Germany in the 16th century and spread to other parts of Europe and America. Children would search for the hidden eggs, which were often dyed in bright colors and decorated with designs. The Easter Bunny, with its association with fertility and new life, became a popular addition to the tradition of egg hunting. Today, the Easter Bunny and egg hunting are beloved Easter traditions enjoyed by families around the world.
