What's happening in April?
 

 
Happy Easter!

Today is Easter! Unlike many other traditional holidays, Easter does not fall on the same date each year. To many, the reason for this can seem a bit complicated to understand. To determine a year's Easter date, one must start by noting the Spring Equinox. The Spring Equinox is technically the first day of Spring in the Northern Hemisphere. In 2020, this happened on Thursday, March 19th. Then, Easter follows the first full moon of the season, which happened on Tuesday, April 7th. These events led us to today, Easter Sunday, April 12!
 

                                                                                                                             

Easter Activities
 
Need help making this year's Easter celebrations creative, fun, and memorable? Here are a few ideas on how to possibly celebrate the holiday at home:
  • Prepare a delicious and special dinner at home with your immediate family!
  • Set up a traditional Easter Egg Hunt in and around your home! Get creative with those hiding spots.
  • Eat lots of spring themed chocolates and candy!
  • Dress up and use this as an opportunity to take family photos!
  • Dye, color, and paint a batch of Easter eggs!
  • Make and decorate Easter baskets with all of your favorite items!
  • Give your extended family a phone call and share your favorite moments of the day!
