Easter in United States

Easter Monday

What do people do on Easter Monday

Egg rolling race is a traditional game on Easter Monday. There is a big race held on the lawn of the White House in Washington. Sometimes even the President takes part in the “White House Easter Egg Roll. Eggs are rolled down a hill or slope and there is a variety of activities, as well as food and entertainment, for families.

The White House Easter egg collection involves a tradition that began in 1994 where each state sends a decorated egg to the White House for display. Artists from across the United States created decorated eggs that represent each state and the District of Columbia. Each year the artists vote amongst themselves to select the artist to create the following year's commemorative egg which is presented to the President and First Lady. The collection is coordinated by the American Egg Board
