Where does the Easter bunny come from?

The Easter tradition of an Easter Bunny Rabbit comes from an old story about Spring and the change of season to the summer. The baby rabbit symbolizes new life just like with the duckling. That's why you'll find so many chocolate eggs in the shapes of bunnies.

The baby ducks and rabbits come with the change from Spring to Summer, with the flowers and new leaves on the trees.

One of the stories says how the bunny was sitting in a field in Spring and one of the sun rays caught him. As a result he became the Golden bunny and brought wealth to the farmers changing their dying crops to fresh new healthy ones. The Golden bunny is supposed to bring luck and money to anyone who sees him and has become a magical character over time.
