Christians believe that that is the day Jesus rose from the dead.

Easter is the celebration of the Resurrection of Christ. When Jesus died on the cross, he went to the grave only for three days. After this, some women who loved him went to his tomb to put perfumes on his body (see customs of the day). But when they got there, the large stone put in front of the door by the Romans was rolled away and there was an angel in front of the door who said, "Do not fear, He is risen." So, when you hunt for Easter eggs and wear pretty dresses, remember Christ's resurrection.
