The word “Easter” comes from “Eostre”, the Anglo-Saxon goddess of spring.
Easter is celebrated on the first Sunday after the first full moon in spring. That’s why it’s on a different date each year.
Christians celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ on Easter Sunday. Many people celebrate the beginning of spring.
