Did you know that the Easter Egg hunts has been traced all the way back to the late 16th century?

The history of the Easter egg hunt dates back to ancient pagan traditions and has evolved through various cultural practices. They say that it originated in Germany where a man named Martin Luther organized egg hunts for his congregation.

The word "Easter" is derived from the pagan goddess of fertility "Eostre", and the holiday itself is linked to Spring Equinox, symbolizing the return of the sun. The hunt is rooted in symbolizing new life and resurrection, with the Easter Bunny and eggs representing fertility and rebirth. These elements combine to create the modern Easter egg hunt tradition we celebrate today!
