Twenga Celebrates Easter Around the World

Over 19,000 Offers to Celebrate Easter

Finding Easter decorations will not be a problem with more than 11,000 offers including rare finds such as an Easter Bunny topiary or chocolate-free Easter baskets for dogs.
American Easter traditions revolve mostly around children and involve dying Easter eggs, participating in an Easter egg hunt, and offering an Easter basket full of chocolate bunnies and Easter candy. Kids will never be disappointed upon arriving to an Easter brunch and greeting a relative dressed in an Easter bunny costume, which is also available on Twenga.

Easter Sunday around the world shows a myriad of traditions, some of which might even be considered bizarre from an American standpoint. In 1991 there was a successful campaign in Australia to replace the Easter Bunny with the Easter Bilby, an animal native to the country, as the rabbit is viewed in a negative light for destroying crops. German towns traditionally have a bonfire, referred to as the Easter fire, the Saturday before Easter Sunday to welcome the warmer months. American children might be less intrigued with the traditional Polish Easter baskets, which are full of hard-boiled eggs, sausage, ham and bread instead of sweets.
