See there was this widow. She was quite poor and wanted to get her young children ( age :4 & 5) a gift for Easter. Since she could hardly afford anything, she decided to take some eggs to decorate. So she decorated some eggs, and hid them outside to find. When they found them, they didn't know who hid them. Then a bunny came out of the bushes. So they thought it was the bunny. And after a while, they made it into this huge bunny.
I hope that answers your question
Why are chocolate Easter bunnies often hollow?
They aren't. Traditional Easter eggs are usually cooked eggs that have been dyed a color. Some Slavic cultures decorate eggs with wax batik and other methods, but these eggs were traditionally raw eggs that weren't emptied, then allowed to dry out over time.
Nowadays many egg artists empty their eggs to allow them to last longer; there is no risk of empty eggs cracking, leaking or exploding.
Chocolate eggs can be hollow or solid; I suspect the hollow ones are that way because less chocolate is used, making them cheaper.

Should Easter follow Passover?
Technically yes, as Easter celebrates Christ's Resurrection and Passover was either the day of the crucifixion or the day before it.
However the dates of these holy days are currently determined by different calenders: Easter by the Gregorian solarcalender, Passover by the traditional Jewish lunarcalendar. As these calendars use different systems, dates in each shift with respect to the other, so in some years Easter comes before Passover.
One of the many reasons Pope Gregory ordered the development of a new calendar was to avoid having to always consult the Jewish Rabbis for the date of Passover in order to compute the date of Easter (Jewish/Christian relations were very bitter by this time).
How is Easter eggs related to holy week?

The English name, "Easter", and the German, "Ostern", derive from the name of Germanic Goddess of the Dawn (thus, of spring, as the dawn of the year) - called aster, astre, and ostre, in various dialects of Old English. In England, the annual festive time in her honor was in the "Month of Easter", equivalent to April.
The Venerable Bede, an 8th Century English Christian monk wrote in Latin:
"Eosturmonath, qui nunc paschalis mensis interpretatur, quondam a dea illorum quae Eostre vocabatur et cui in illo festa celebrabant nomen habuit."
Which means: "Eastermonth, which is now interpreted as the paschal month, was formerly named after the goddess Eostre, and has given its name to the festival."
