Best Answer

The Easter Bunny and egg came from the Saxons, who dedicated the month of April to their goddess Eastre. Eastre was a goddess of spring and rebirth. As rabbits breed so much, they represent rebirth, and when things hatch out of an egg, that's birth. Spring and rebirth sort of are the same thing, so there you go. Why is Easter in April though? Well that's the month the Saxons dedicated to Eastre.
