When Is Easter?
Easter in 2023 falls on Sunday, April 9. However, Easter is a moveable holiday and the date varies from year to year.
Easter falls on the first Sunday after the full moon on Good Friday, which is the first full moon of spring. It occurs on or shortly after the vernal equinox. March 22 may be the earliest Easter, and April 25 may be the latest.
Origins of Easter
Easter, the most important Christian holiday, celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, which is seen as proof of Jesus' divinity and of God's power over death.
According to the Bible, Jesus was Jesus was crucified and buried in the tomb on the day of the preparation for Passover. Three days later, on the first day of the week (that is, Sunday), Mary Magdalene and the other women went to the tomb to anoint the body of Jesus, but they found it empty. An angel appeared to them and told them that Jesus had risen from the dead.
That's why making Easter eggs has been the most common Easter activity for centuries, as eggs are a symbol of rebirth and new life. To this day, decorating Easter eggs remains a popular tradition enjoyed by people of all ages, and it is often seen as a way to celebrate the arrival of spring and the renewal of life that comes with it.
Activities to celebrate Easter
In addition to decorating Easter eggs, it's a good idea to attend church services with your family. Many churches hold special services on Easter, including hymns, prayers, Bible readings and sermons. Sermons may focus on themes such as hope, forgiveness and redemption, encouraging people to reflect on their faith and commitment to Christ so that they can can face life more positively and become better people.
The Easter treats are sure to be a hit with the kids. No child can resist the temptation to make and decorate their own Easter cookies. Make egg-shaped cookies with sugar cookie dough and then let the kids decorate them with colorful frosting and sprinkles. Bunny tail truffles are also a fun and easy treat that is especially good for Easter. Mix cream cheese, butter and powdered sugar together to form a dough. Roll the dough into a ball and dip it in melted white chocolate. Add shredded coconut on top to form a "bunny tail".
The most recommended Easter activity is to spend time outdoors with family and friends. Enjoy the beautiful spring scenery and celebrate the holiday together, such as having a picnic in the park, going for a hike, or just taking a leisurely walk through your neighborhood or on a local nature trail. If you decide to go outdoors on Easter, it's advisable to bring along some essential items to help you stay comfortable. For example, you may want to bring a blanket for your picnic or a thermos to keep your drinks at the perfect temperature.
It's important to make sure your kids stay hydrated and refreshed during all outdoor activities, especially on hikes or picnics.
