As Easter always falls on a Sunday, many countries in the world also recognize Easter Monday as a public holiday.
Easter and the holidays that are related to it are moveable feasts, in that they do not fall on a fixed date in the Gregorian or Julian calendars (both of which follow the cycle of the sun and the seasons)
In some traditions, the children put out their empty baskets for the Easter bunny to fill while they sleep.
The Easter Bunny is a popular legendary anthropomorphic Easter gift-giving character analogous to Santa Claus in American culture.
