Unlike Christmas, Halloween and Valentine’s Day, Easter is not one of the holidays fully celebrated (marketed) here. I’ve only really seen Easter egg chocolates and bunnies at the Sony Plaza stores, which always has cute accessories and treats for any holiday.

So I usually explain that it is the day Christ came back to life and that the eggs and the bunnies are symbols of fertility and Spring. Next year I think more kids are looking forward to dying Easter eggs…maybe we’ll even do our own little egg hunt.
