What does the easter bunny have to do with Easter?

What to do if your child is asking questions about Easter Bunny?

  • My daughter is getting curious - starting to wonder about the Easter bunny - like "how does he walk around with all that candy, he's only a little bunny, right? or is he a big man dressed in a bunny suit?" and also told me that at school the teacher put candy in their little baskets they made, but the kids knew it was her (she was pretending it was the Easter bunny - she left it in there after they went home Monday, and Tuesday they came in and there was candy) - she - my daughter - told me her and her classmates saw the candy boxes and packaging in the trash can, and knew that it must have been the teacher! lol.... she is 7 1/2 but I think thats too young to tell her it isnt real... I just made some stuff up, the bunny is magical, and he will probably leave packaging too... lmao etc

  • Answer:

    My kids-11 and 8, finally confessed to me yesterday that they think i'm the Easter Bunny, but this morning, they were all happy the the bunny came. Kids want to believe in these characters for as long as they can. I don't have a problem telling my kids that they real. It keeps them young and gives them something to belive in. I will admit that after 18 years of make belive about the Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy, Leperchans..etc, with my Nieces and Nephew and now my kids, i'm tired of it, but i will go on as long as they want to keep pretending too!!! Good Luck!!!

basicly, just make up stuff about how it is magical. Tell her the easter bunny carries a big bag, and it just keeps filling up, and never gets empty.

tell the truth. I'm not going to lie to my kids about any of those mythical characters.
