Did you know that Easter comes in many different shapes and sizes around the world? Here are the 4 most interesting traditions 👇

🔹 In 𝗦𝘄𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗻, children dress up as Easter witches and wear old clothes. Similar to our Halloween, they walk around their neighbourhoods, but trade their artwork for sweets. 🧙‍♂️

🔹 Residents of 𝗛𝗮𝘂𝘅, 𝗙𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 serve an enormous omelette on Easter Monday in the town square. They use more than 4,500 eggs and feed up to 1,000 people. 🥚🍳

🔹 In 𝗔𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗮, there are no chocolate bunnies, as rabbits are considered pests rather than pets. This is why in 1991, Rabbit-Free Australia launched a campaign to replace the Easter bunny with the Easter bilby, a rabbit-eared bandicoot. Many companies now make chocolate bilbies for Easter, with proceeds benefiting the endangered animals. 🍫

🔹 "Sprinkling," a popular Easter tradition in 𝗛𝘂𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗿𝘆, is observed on Easter Monday, also known as "Ducking Monday." In years past, men used to throw buckets of water at girls and women. Luckily, the tradition has evolved, and boys now only sprinkle perfume or perfumed water on girls after getting their permission to do so! 💦
