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.
Question: What is the origin of the Easter bunny and Easter eggs?. Answer: It is thought that the word Easter comes from a pagan figure called Eastre (or Eostre) who was celebrated as the goddess of spring by the Saxons of Northern Europe.A festival called Eastre was held during the spring equinox by these people to honor her.ince rabbits and hares give birth to large litters in the early spring, itâs understandable that the rabbit is the symbol of fertility. The legend of the Easter Bunny bringing eggs appears to have been brought to the United States by settlers from southwestern Germany.
