The Easter Egg
The egg is a symbol of life. At one time, Chinese parents sent a red egg to
relatives or friends when a baby was born. This was like an announcement
card. Many of our Easter greeting cards are shaped like an egg. In the
Ukraine, eggs were popular gifts to exchange at Easter, and young girls
rubbed their cheeks with the red-colored eggs when they found them to give
their cheeks a rosy glow after a long winter.
10. At Pascua is typical singing: ací em pica i ací em cou i jo ací et
trenque l’ou! . Here itches me, here stings me and here I break you
