The Easter bunny is a figurehead of Pop Culture mythology, who is said to leave trails of brightly colored eggs that give clues for children to find a large prize. Although the Easter bunny itself is completely fictitious, there are many festivals that include people wearing exaggerated rabbit suits handing out prizes.
Where can you see the Easter bunny?
Colored boiled eggs are seldom available in stores. You have to buy eggs, boil them and color them yourself. You can buy Easter egg coloring at any store like Walmart, Kmart and Target. Vinegar is usually added to the coloring, so you need that, too.
Chocolate Easter eggs are sold in stores like those above, grocery stores, dollar stores, etc.

Why does Easter fall on different dates?
Easter is calculated to follow Passover which is based on the lunar calendar. Catholics and most Protestants use the new Gregorian calendar decreed by Pope Gregory XIII in 1582 to calculate the date of Easter. The time of Easter is based on the cycles of the moon, the equinox, and seasons and things in nature. In simple (?) terms Easter occurs on the first Sunday following the first full moon that occurs on or after the day of the vernal equinox (the first day of spring). In 2008 the vernal equinox will be on Thursday, March 20. The first full moon after that will be Friday, March 21. Thus, Easter will be on Sunday, March 23. The earliest Easter can be is March 22 as it was last in 1818 and will be next in 2285. The latest Easter can be is April 25 as it was last in 1943 and will be next in 2038.

To determine the date of Easter for the years 1900 through 2199, divide the year by 19, disregard the whole number, and find the remainder on the left side of the list below. The date of Easter for that year is the first Sunday after the date shown next to the number.
Example: 2012 ÷ 19 = 105 17/19. Disregard the whole number, 105, and find the remainder, 17, on the left side of the list below. Next to 17 below, it says April 7, so in 2012, Easter is the first Sunday after April 7, which is April 8.
