As Christianity spread throughout Europe, different pagan customs blended into the
holidays.
In fact, the actual word Easter may have come from Estra, the goddess of spring and
fertility, which brings us to the Easter egg. Eggs have been a mythological symbol of
birth for thousands of years. Christians adopted the egg as an Easter custom
sometime around the 13th century. The yoke inside the shell represented Christ
emergence from the tomb. Eggs were painted red to represent the blood Christ shed
on the cross.

The colorful Easter egg soon hatched its own traditions. A popular one was egg rolling.
In 1876, Congress prohibited kids from playing on the Capitol grounds, so President
Rutherford B. Haynes opened the White House lawn to the little rollers. After that, the
White House Easter roll became a tradition. So when did the Easter bunny appear to
the scene?
