ALL I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT LIFE I LEARNED FROM THE EASTER BUNNY
Don't put all of your eggs in one basket
Walk softly and carry a big carrot
Everyone needs a friend who is all ears
There's no such thing as too much candy
All work and no play can make you a basket case
A cute little tail attracts a lot of attention
Everyone is entitled to a bad hare day
Let happy thoughts multiply like rabbits
Some body parts should be floppy
Keep your paws off other people's jellybeans
Good things come in small sugarcoated packages
The grass is always greener in someone else's basket
An Easter bonnet can tame even the wildest hare
To show your true colors you have to come out of your shell
The best things in life are still sweet and gooey

The Irish Hare and Easter Origins
The Irish hare
The Irish hare is unique to the island of Ireland and is arguably the country's oldest surviving mammal. It has been present on the island since before the last ice age, which ended around 10,000 years ago.
Revered and celebrated in Celtic lore for centuries, The lunar hare is seen as carrying an egg, symbolically heralding the new cycle of life that comes with the spring. For ancient communities that had struggled to survive the winter with limited food reserves, eggs were often the first of nature’s bounty to save them from starvation. No wonder then that the hare was revered as a symbol of life and endowed with magical powers.
Irish hares only have about 2 babies in every litter. Unlike rabbits, hares are born fully furred and with their eyes open. Unfortunately, The numbers of these noble animals have declined dramatically in the last three decades. People who live in rural areas report that hare numbers are only a fraction of what they once were. With little protection in law, this unique species remains endangered and is now locally extinct in some areas.

Easter Bunny and Tooth Fairy End of Innocence!
I crept into his room at night to put some money under his pillow in exchange for a tooth that he had lost earlier that day.
Unfortunately, he woke up!
When he realized what I was doing, he thought for a second and said,
"Does that mean there's no Easter Bunny?"
And that was the end of his Innocence!
I still feel guilty all these years later. Maybe this site is my feeble attempt to restore some of the magic of Easter???
The legend of the Tooth Fairy is about a fairy that gives a child money or gifts in exchange for a baby tooth that has has fallen out. Children typically place the tooth under their pillow at night. The fairy is said to take the tooth from under the pillow and replace it with money once they have fallen asleep.
Remember when the days were long
And rolled beneath a deep blue sky
Didn't have a care in the world
With mommy and daddy standing by
When "happily ever after" fails
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales

Easter bunny- The rabbit, or hare, was a symbol of abundant new life in ancient times, and reminds us of spring and new life. | |

Meeting the Easter Bunny
On Easter morn at early dawn
before the cocks were crowing,
I met a bob-tail bunnykin
and asked where he was going.

I met a bob-tail bunnykin
and asked where he was going.
"Tis in the house and out the house
a-tipsy, tipsy-toeing,
‘Tis round the house and ‘bout the house
a lightly I am going."

you carry in your basket?"
"Tis eggs of gold and eggs of blue;

"Tis chocolate eggs and bonbon eggs
and eggs of red and gray,
For every child in every house
on bunny Easter Day."
and eggs of red and gray,
For every child in every house
on bunny Easter Day."
He perked his ears and winked his eye
and twitched his little nose;
He shook his tail -what tail he had
and stood up on his toes.

"I must be gone before the sun;
the east is growing gray;
"Tis almost time for bells to chime."
So he hippety-hopped away.

An Easter Poem - Egg Hunt
Easter morning, Easter morning, Easter morning dawning fine
Have to find the Easter eggs now, I've already picked up nine.
Fill the basket, fill the basket, fill the basket every time
Candy eggs and jelly beans are tucked behind each growing pine.
Bend and scramble, bend and scramble, bend and scramble, reach and climb.
Find each hidden Easter treat now, pick them up and they'll be mine.
See them glow and see them glisten, see them glow and see them shine.
Join me with my Easter candy and together we will dine.

Easter Egg Hunt
An Easter Egg hunt is a wonderful game for adults to organize for children. Years ago it was something that parents did in their downstairs rooms, nowadays it the Easter Egg Hunt has evolved into an outdoor event for the whole neighbourhood.
Organization plus the greater expanse has created more creative opportunities both for the egg hiding places and the clues to locate the chocolate treasure. If you are the organizer try to make it as fun as possible, the secret is to keep them them moving and keep them guessing.

Your Easter Egg is near now,
On this I'd like to bet
The next place that it's hiding in
You're bound to get a little wet. (Egg hiding in the bath)

Easter Bunny Footprints
Another twist for your Easter egg hunt is to use bunny footprints to give the children clues where to look for the eggs.
Memorable Easter Egg Hunt Story
Special Easter egg hunt. Try sprinkling talc on the wooden floor, then using the bunny footprints, they created a trail in the talcum powder.
Place carrots at strategic points, but also gnaw them to look like the rabbits had been there. One neat touch is to leave a spilt saucer of milk in the kitchen.
