Easter eggs, Easter bunnies, Easter baskets. These and other items are commonly used in our celebrations at this time of year. Many do not really have a Christian or a "religious" cononotation to Easter. Some, like the Easter Egg can be used teaching our children about the Ressurection of Jesus in a visual way.
Perhaps the closest symbol that is used would be 'The Easter Lamb.' The eating of lamb on Easter really originated during Passover in the Old Testament before the birth of Christianity.
Jesus is often called the 'Lamb of God ' or the 'Sacrificial Lamb ' and so for many Chistians it stands to reason why they would have it On their Easter dinner table in remembrance of what he did for us.

April 5,2019 Easter Bible reading: Mark 11:5-6 And when those standing there said "What are you doing releasing the colt?" they told them what Jesus said and they let them go.
