Easter in USA

Easter is a major religious festival of Christians that is celebrated in a grand manner with a big party time celebration. Every nation has its own way of celebrating a particular festivity. For example it is the tradition of America to conduct special Easter parades, where men and women flaunt their special costumes and colorful bonnets. The person who leads the parade can be spotted holding Easter candle or cross in his/her hand. 

Here are some ideas about Easter customs and traditions in US: 

• In the New Orleans, it is a trend of conducting an annual Easter carnival called 'Mardi Gras', which features lot of fun activities like parade, jazz music bands and a bumper party.
• A must play Easter game for American kids is Easter egg roll.
• A special dish for Easter springtime in USA is baked ham, potatoes and vegetables. Another most demanding recipe is hot cross buns.
• It was in the early 1700's, when for the first time, eggs were dyed and the credit for starting this practice in America can be attributed to Pennsylvania Dutch (German) settlers.
• As a part of Easter traditions in the US, sunrise services are held and the prime motive is to include various Christian religious groups in this event.
• Painting the Easter eggs and then conducting Easter egg hunt games for the kids is what most American parents do on the Easter week.
