Answer 2

Easter in the Netherlands is celebrated much the same as other Western countries. Christians make a special effort to attend church services, which are often longer than the usual Sunday services. After the services, festive meals are often served.

In the northern and eastern rural areas, bonfires are held.

People with children color and hide eggs for children to find. Children are told that the Easter hare delivered them. The prize for finding the most eggs is often a large basket full of treats or a large chocolate Easter Bunny.

Families and friends get together for festive meals, either breakfast, brunch or lunch. Foods served include boiled, poached or fried eggs, bread called paasstol that includes raisins, nuts and marzipan, butter made into the shape of a lamb, herb-flavored butter, Croissants, cheese, ham, shrimp, smoked fish, candy and chocolates. Lamb is eaten later in the day and is viewed as symbolic of the death and resurrection on Jesus. Some eat unleavened bread as was eaten in the Jewish Passover.

Most businesses are closed on Easter in the Netherlands.
