Flowers for Easter, the perfect gift - This year Easter falls on Sunday April 4th, 2010
People celebrate Easter according to their beliefs and their religious denominations. Christians commemorate Good Friday as the day that Jesus Christ died and Easter Sunday as the day that He was resurrected. Protestant settlers brought the custom of a sunrise service, a religious gathering at dawn, to the United States. For Easter 2010 Teleflora is offering Thomas Kinkade's Easter Joy Bouquet, a beautiful Easter keepsake, rejoicing the resurrection.
Around the world, different customs are observed during Easter Sunday, the meaning of these traditions in one way or another is a "salute to spring" marking re-birth. The word "Easter" is named after Eastre, the Anglo-Saxon goddess of spring. The white Easter lily has come to capture the glory of the holiday. Start your own tradition by sending Easter flowers, such as tulips, Easter lilies, or seasonal spring flowers in an Easter basket.
Long ago, the Easter Bunny was called the "Easter Hare." Hares and rabbits have frequent multiple births so they became a symbol of fertility. On Easter Sunday, many children wake up to find that the Easter Bunny has left them baskets of candy. He has also hidden the eggs that they decorated earlier that week. Children excitedly hunt for the eggs all around the house and garden. The custom of an Easter egg hunt began because children believed that hares laid eggs in the grass. Local parks and even the President and First Lady hold Easter egg hunts on the White House lawn, and the child who finds the most eggs wins a prize.
The Romans believed that "All life comes from an egg." Christians consider eggs to be "the seed of life" and so they are symbolic of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Send the children in your life a kids Easter basket filled with a chocolate bunny and Easter eggs.
