How do french celebrate Easter?
I know the french do celebrate this, Heres a paragraph I dug up on it enjoy If you will be in Paris this Easter, there are a few things to remember. First of all, as it is a holiday many shops and restaurants will be closed for the day. Some will remain closed the following day as well (Easter Monday). Be sure to call before arriving at a restaurant, as you don't want to be standing outside a locked door. The windows of the Parisian patisseries and chocolatiers are like works of art at Easter. The beautiful cellophane wrapped eggs, the white, milk and dark chocolate chicks. The Easter bells. Easter bells? Yes, Easter bells. You see, in France, there is no Easter bunny. Instead, they have the "Cloches de Pâques" or Easter bells. These are the bells that fly across France, dropping chocolates and treats in the grass, under trees and in the bushes. When the children hear the church bells on Easter morning, that is their signal that the Easter bells have passed and they run out looking for their Easter goodies. French church bells remain silent from the Thursday before Easter until Easter morning. The French Easter tradition is that the church bells fly to the Vatican in Rome, returning to France in time for the Easter celebration, depositing chocolates and eggs all over the gardens of French children. That's to sad they don't have Easter bunnys though : )

Why does the Catholic Church use wood blocks on holy Thursday?
Holy Thursday is the mass of the last Supper. After the Gloria, during which bells are rung, the bells go silent until Easter when Jesus is risen. So during communion when the bells are usually rung several times during the communion prayer and consecration, the church used to use wood blocks clapped together instead of bells, a reminder to the people that something special is happening in the Mass. This practice is no longer done in the usual Mass since the Vatican Council.
