Friday Notables - Researching the "whys?"

There are bunnies, Easter eggs, and candy everywhere this time of year and although your toddler may not be asking many "why" questions now it may still be good to brush up on some basics about how we celebrate this holiday. The history channel does a pretty good job of checking their facts, so I would recommend using their articles as a jumping point if you do want to begin a discussion of what a holiday like Easter means, whatever religious beliefs you hold. Below is a link for an article all about Easter symbols, but I would also recommend checking out their short videos and browsing around the entire site - who knows, you may spark a love for history between you and your child. Have a wonderful holiday!
