What's Easter?
In Catholic countries we commemorate the Holy Week, starting on Maundry Thursday, follwed by Good Friday (in UK and many other countries it's also a holiday and everything is close) and it ends on Resurrection Sunday; however, many other Christians commemorate Easter, starting on that Sunday but they continue with the following week.
But Easter is also atraditional time in Anglosaxson countries. Have a look at these videos about Easter and try to enjoy them, especially with your family:
- History:
- Traditions:
- In the UK: you have this video and this one as well
- in America: this is the video or you also have this one
- Activities: just in case you fancy doing some of the traditions with your family
- Egg hunt: why don't you organise one at home? It might be really funny. If you want to see an example, go to this video although you can do it simpler.
- Decorqting eggs: this video is for practising your creativity, not your English! This other video is simpler but with explanations
- Making chocolate eggs: this video is very simple and this one is quite sofisticated; but this one is to practise your English as the cook is speaking while making the eggs.
- Colouring Easter pictures: bunnies and eggs
