The Easter season lasts fifty days and ends on Domingo de Pentecostés (Pentecost Sunday). A symbol and staple of this Pascua around the world is the Easter bunny, which gained popularity in the 19th century. Rabbits usually give birth to a large litter of baby bunnies, so they became a symbol of new life. Legends tell children that the Easter bunny lays, decorates, and hides colorful eggs, as they are also a symbol of new life. This celebration is ideal for enjoying with kids and is full of delicious goodies like chocolates and candy.
