Most Christians observe Easter on the first Sunday
after the first full moon following the first day of spring in the
Northern Hemisphere. Eastern Orthodox Churches celebrate Easter later
because of additional factors in calculating the date of Easter. Several
customs are observed during the Easter season - Lenten penance and
fasting; carnivals, egg exchanging, eating, decorating and egg hunts;
there are Passion Plays and Easter parades. Many countries follow
customs that are special to their country.

"HERE COMES PETER COTTONTAIL"
Here comes Peter Cottontail
Hoppin' down the bunny trail,
Hippity hoppity,
Easter's on its way
Bringin' ev'ry girl and boy
A basketful of Easter joy
And things to make your Easter
Bright and gay
He's got jelly beans for Tommy
Colored eggs for sister Sue
There's an orchid for your mommy
And an Easter bonnet too. Oh!
Here' comes Peter Cottontail
Hoppin' down the bunny trail
Hippity hoppity
Happy Easter Day
