Being from a Polish family (Mum's side) we have always coloured eggs - we usually do this on Good Friday and display them. Before breakfast on Easter Sunday, we select an egg (hard boiled of course) and have a competition to see who has the champion egg (kind of like conkers). Then an adult peels their egg and cuts it into pieces and we all share by eating a small piece of the same egg (we can eat our own, too, but we start with a little piece of the one family egg). I am not sure if this is all true Polish tradition, but Mum did it as a kid and we have continued it.

I don't know... DD likes chocolate (she only gets it very rarely from her grandparents) but we don't want to spoil her - my nieces and nephew go into chocolate frenzies and it gets pretty ugly. We'll probably give her a small egg, but a nice gift to mark the occasion. Mum always gives a small egg and a nice new outfit for winter. We did Santa so we'll do the Easter Bunny too. I like a little magic FIL does a massive Easter egg hunt, and maybe this year DD will be able to participate?

In terms of the meaning, last year she was only tiny, but I still read her the bible stories surrounding Christmas (because I had to explain who Jesus was ) and Easter. I'll do the same again this year. MIL tends to pray over her and tell her how much Jesus loves her so she is getting a type of religious education pretty early and regularly.
