Easter is almost here, and what better way to celebrate than you float back to childhood youth hunting for chocolate eggs? 

Every year, kids celebrate one of the best holidays just for them – Easter. Springtime, summer dresses with flowers all around them, hunting for eggs in someone's big, green, and luscious backyard. Everyone in a good mood, enjoying life under the warm but gentle sun, and everyone ready for the new season of nascent growth and renewal. It's a holiday that holds a lot of childlike innocence and wonder, and we can see it in the animals that are highlighted in this time as well. Baby chicks, bunnies, foxes, lambs, ducklings, birds – they all contribute to the idea of everything cutesy, tiny, and nostalgic for childhood. Springtime has always carried a kind of quiet magic, especially when seen through the soft lens of childhood. Around Easter is when that magic seems to bloom everywhere at once. 

When you're a kid, spring feels like a gentle reawakening. Kids are so intuitive, and they sense the symbolism of the season without even knowing it. The idea of new beginnings isn't hard to grasp, and that's why these cute animals spark our childhood nostalgia. Easter traditions reflect this notion. The image of the bunny isn't random! It represents fertility, life, and the endless cycle of renewal. Why a bunny, you ask? Don't ask us. But a child would never know the nuance, but can understand the feelings involved with everything already. There's a childhood wonder in believing things, like magic in the air, or that a bunny actually hid eggs for you to hunt. It's the idea that the world still holds surprises for you to figure out.

  • There's something comforting about how animals and children mirror each other during the season. Both are playful, instinctive, and drawn to warmth and innocence. Spring light plays a role in all of this too. Have you ever noticed how the light looks different in the spring? It touches dew drops on leaves in a different, inspiring way. It can feel almost dreamlike, and for me I always feel like I'm in a fairytale. When I would hunt for eggs growing up, I always admired how mystical it felt.
