In America, "easter egg hunts" are among the main activities that go on during Easter.
They are usually organized by adults for smaller children. All the adults scatter plastic eggs around (they have candy and other prizes and stuff inside of them) All the children get together, (usually in a large open area, like a churchyard or something) and they have to find the eggs.
Is this in other countries? Or just America? I've never heard of it happening in other countries. But Easter here also has the same religious meaning.
