Easter Egg Hunt

Easter is here....my memories of Easter are somewhat faded.... all I remember is the long Easter break we used to have in school, so we didn't quite participate in the Easter egg hunt. But Easter is celebrated on a large scale here in United States. It is great fun for families with children and the kids really look forward to them. The community in which we live had organized the Easter Bunny Egg Hunt and it was such a big hit :)

We dressed up Anvesha in an adorable "Sweet Bunny" pink dress ( it coincidentally matched perfectly for the day) and a  white bunny ears hair band. She looked so adorable in the cute little Easter basket that she took around in hunt of eggs :) The Easter Bunny was such a hit among kids and there was a photo session too. Anvesha was thrilled to meet the Bunny and we clicked loads of pictures of them together.

Anvesha collected four eggs which were good enough for her age :) She happily flaunted her Easter basket and played with the candy filled eggs :)  Though she still hasn't reached an age where she attaches meaning to what is going on around her, but she enjoyed nonetheless :) Here are few memories from today's Egg Hunt.

Encouraging kids to participate in such events is a great way for them to learn various cultures, interact socially plus value and respect diversity. Easter egg hunt may be more of a western concept, but involving kids in such activities is a great way for them to develop and understand these concepts in a better way and relate to what they see and learn in storybooks  :)

Happy Easter Everyone !!!!
