From medieval times, the Easter basket for kids was a symbol of fertility. According to European folklore, a rabbit was said to leave a basket filled with colored eggs for children, and when settlers immigrated to America, they brought the story with them.
Easter Basket for Kids is a bundle of colored easter eggs in a basket. The tradition of exchanging baskets is said to be descended from early medieval Catholics.
Eggs-decorated or otherwise-have has historically been mythological motifs for a new life. Ancient Egyptians, Asians, and Greeks all believed in the world’s premise of being born from a cosmic egg. For Christians, the egg symbolized the empty tomb of Jesus, and they stained them red to represent the blood of Christ. When cracked open, this meant his resurrection.
To celebrate the end of winter, they would bring baskets of delicious goods to church to be blessed by a priest. These fertility symbols were passed down through the ages-the bunny, the eggs, the basket itself-to be reimagined into the Easter traditions we hold dear to us today.
