18．The most important holiday in spring，especially for Christians （基督徒），is Easter．This Christian holiday is not on the same date every year，but it's always on a Sunday．It can be any Sunday between March 22and April 25．Many people celebrate Easter by buying new clothes．Children celebrate by hunting for colored eggs that their parents have hidden aroundthe house．People also give Easter baskets filled ith candy and other goodies to one another to celebrate the day．
But the holiday is more than new clothes and good things to eat．On Easter，many people go to church to celebrate Jesus'resurrection （復(fù)活） from the dead．
Most people color them．Some people hide them．Others just eat them．But no matter what one does with Easter eggs，they are an important Easter tradition throughout the Western world．
People from many different cultures celebrate Easter．In both America and Belgium，children look for Easter eggs hidden on lawns and in bushes．In America，children believe the eggs are hidden by the Easter bunny （復(fù)活節(jié)兔子）．But in Belgium，the hidden eggs are supposed to have fallen from church bells．
In Bulgaria，red Easter eggs are lucky in churches； Bulgarian families also hit these Easter eggs together to see whose is the strongest．The winner looks forward to good fortune that year．
Still dozens of other Easter traditions exist．In parts of Austria，for example，children sing from door to door and are rewarded with colorful eggs．
