Draw two smaller circles within the inner oval to add detail. Draw a curved shape above each to form the eyebrows. Draw a bulging, upside down, rounded triangle to form the nose. Draw dots on each side of it, and extend curved lines to indicate whiskers. Use a series of curved lines to form the mouth, tongue, and teeth.

Learn More About The Easter Bunny Drawing

Each year, children around the world play a game of searching for brightly colored eggs that were said to be left behind by a bunny - the Easter egg hunt. Where does the tradition of the Easter Bunny come from?

The first mention of the Easter bunny was in a book called About Easter Eggs, published in 1682.

The tradition arose among the Lutherans of Germany, and the Easter bunny played a role similar to Santa Claus.

He determined whether children were good or bad, and if they were good, brought them candy, toys, and brightly colored eggs.

These were placed in nests the children made from their hats or bonnets.

How, though, did the rabbit come to be associated with the Easter holiday?

Before the rise of Christianity, many ancient religions worshiped gods and goddesses of fertility in the spring.

Rabbits and chicken eggs were common fertility symbols, as these animals can reproduce quickly. It was also thought that rabbits could reproduce without the presence of a mate.

Therefore, when rites of other religions were adopted by Christianity, the rabbit came to be associated with the Virgin Mary.

Did you know? While bunnies don't lay eggs, there are two mammals that do. These unique animals are known as the platypus and the echidna.
