#1. Why is Easter considered a moveable feast?
Easter is a moveable feast because it is celebrated on the first Sunday after the vernal equinox full moon (i.e. on Sunday after the full moon of March). As moon phases are not the same every year, the date can shift.

#5. How did bunny rabbits and Easter eggs become a part of this holiday (Easter) ?
The story of the Easter Bunny is thought to have become common in the 19th Century. Rabbits usually give birth to a big litter of babies (called kittens), so they became a symbol of new life. Legend has it that the Easter Bunny lays, decorates and hides eggs as they are also a symbol of new life.
