Coloring eggs for kids to be delivered by the "Easter Bunny" have absolutely nothing to do with Christian Easter.

From Wikipedia so you know it's true:

- The hare was believed to be a hermaphrodite who could reproduce without loss of virginity, and came to represent the Virgin Mary.

- Orthodox Churches customarily abstain from eggs for Lent. They boil or roast them prior to Lent to preserve them, then eat them to break the fast.

- Eastern Orthodox and possibly Lutherans began dyeing eggs red to symbolize the blood of Christ.
