Egg Hunting on the Beach in New Jersey


In New Jersey, even the Easter Bunny does a little G(ym)-T(an)-L(aundry) come spring. In the beach town of Belmar, town organizers spread about 3,000 eggs all over the sand, and invite local children ages 1-9 to fill their baskets. Kids are especially interested in locating one of the special eggs that hold an exclusive prize.

 

While Easter is observed worldwide, some countries have a surprising way to celebrate this holiday of rebirth and fertility. Enjoy your backyard egg hunt, and then consider some of these traditions from across the globe. From pot throwing, to spanking, to an annual ‘egg roll,’ these Easter customs are certainly interesting!
