Easter is the most important religious holiday in the Christian year. It celebrates the resurrection of Jesus, which Christians believe happened 3 days after his crucifixion.

Easter always falls on a Sunday each year between March 22nd- April 25th and for 2008 easter falls on March 23rd. Easter lasts for 2 days, with the second day called Easter Monday, the week starting with Easter Sunday is called easter week.

Easter marks the end of the 40 days of Lent, a time of fasting giving something up in readiness for easter which starts on ash Wednesday. The week leading up to easter is special in the Christian tradition with the Sunday before Easter being palm Sunday and the last three days before easter are holy Thursday, good Friday and holy Saturday with palm Sunday commemorating Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem, holy Thursday commemorating the last supper and good Friday commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus.

In the UK people decorate Easter eggs before easter day and get the children to hunt for the hidden eggs on the easter Sunday in the garden and around the house. In it also very popular to give chocolate easter eggs and greeting cards on easter Sunday.
