Easter, which is celebrated on Sunday (April 20), is a special day for many Christians around the world. It is a time to remember the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

In Malaysia, Easter is not a public holiday, but most churches hold special services on Easter Sunday. Families may attend church together and enjoy a meal at home after that. Some children take part in fun activities like Easter egg hunts, where they look for colourful eggs hidden in the house or garden.
