According to some sources, the Easter bunny first arrived in America in the 1700s with German immigrants who settled in Pennsylvania and transported their tradition of an egg-laying hare called âOsterhaseâ or âOschter Haws.â Their children made nests in which this creature could lay its colored eggs.
New clothes, parades, candy, and egg hunts have become key cultural expressions, even though the number of people celebrating the religious significance of the holiday declined in the last half of the twentieth century. In the end, the Easter bunny has nothing to do with Jesus directly.ome trace the word âEasterâ to the German fertility goddess Eostra, who in some traditions was even associated with hares. 8 However, more and more scholars think it may have come from a Norse word for âspring,â which in the Germanized form is ostern.
