The First Easter Bunny Legend

The first mention of the Easter bunny is in German folklore shortly before 1700. The Easter bunny was originally a white rabbit who supposedly would lay eggs in people's gardens. The eggs were said to be filled with candy and treats. This tradition quickly spread to other parts of the world, and the Easter bunny became a global symbol of springtime.

There are several theories about why this character became associated with Easter. One theory is that the bunny was originally used to symbolize rebirth during spring. Another theory suggests that the bunny and the eggs were introduced as a symbolic way to celebrate pagan fertility rites. Whatever the case may be, the Easter bunny is now firmly established as a part of our holiday tradition.
