Religous VS. Commercial Easter!
So with the holiday weekend just behind us I was wondering, which Easter do you celebrate, religious or commercial? I head up a play group here in town and we did an Easter egg hunt and, celebrated Easter the way I know how to. In doing this I learned that maybe I should take religion out of the play group. As take home activity I gave out a recipe for Resurrection rolls. I thought it was a good idea, ha ha ha. One of the dads was like "Jesus we are talking about Jesus". I as a somewhat semi not sure what the heck I am Christian was like, "really Easter is all about Jesus and his death and Resurrection," but this opened another conversation between my friends and I, If we want our children to know what the "Holidays" are actually about how do we do that with out getting rid of the commercial part all together. I know all about how the Christian holidays being based more on Celtic/Pagan Sabots more so than the days and symbols of the Christian part of the holiday. Easter is one of the holidays I feel the point has gotten way off course. How about you guys?
