How is Easter celebrated in Norway?

Yes. The Easter break is longer in Norway than in many other countries, as it includes Maundy Thursday (the Thursday preceding Good Friday). It is a real celebration of the emerging Springtime, with chickens and eggs, rather than "Easter bunnies" symbolising the holiday. Chickens replace rabbits as a symbol of fertility, and eggs remain a symbol of new life, just as they are elsewhere. Yellow is the traditional Norwegian Easter colour.
