Easter Bunnies and Eggs

I have always wondered what is the connection of Easter Bunnies and Eggs to the resurrection of Jesus Christ. So then I started googling the whole concept of Easter. I found out that besides the resurrection, it is a day of celebration to welcome spring. The name "Easter" came from the name Eostre, the Anglo-Saxon Goddess of spring and dawn. The people would offer Eostre hares (not rabbits) which symbolizes fertility and return of spring. While the eggs symbolizes birth, new life and creation which the pagans who turned Christians considered it holy.

So there is my mini summarization of Easter Bunnies and Eggs.
