In what country do kids dress as Easter Wizards instead of Easter Bunnies?
In Sweden, kids dress up as wizards and witches rather than bunnies.

And since the good people of Sweden have always held at least a little bit to their old pagan ways, they were totally cool with adopting Gandalf as the symbol of Easter.
