Easter Traditions in North America
In the United States, the Easter holiday has been largely secularized,
so that many American families participate only in the attendant
revelry, central to which is decorating Easter eggs on Saturday
evening and hunting for them Sunday morning, by which time they have
been mysteriously hidden all over the house and garden.
According to the children's stories, the eggs were hidden overnight
and other treats delivered by the Easter Bunny in an Easter basket
which children find waiting for them when they wake up. The Easter
Bunny's motives for doing this are not too clarified.
