Why do we give each other eggs at Easter?
The exchange of eggs for Easter dates back to a springtime custom older than Easter itself! Eggs were given as a symbol of rebirth. This can be traced back to the Egyptians, Persians, Gauls, Greeks and the Romans. In Christianity, for the celebration of “Eastertide”, the egg represents the empty tomb of Jesus, from which Jesus was resurrected. In a nutshell, (or in this case, eggshell) we give each other eggs as a symbol of joy, rebirth/new life, and new beginnings.
