where i'm form, we hide bags of candy (peferably easter-themed) at night somewhere in the house so that children can start looking for them as soon as they wake up

Family get-together.
Hide candy, painted eggs and small presents in the backyard for the kids to find. Candy and booze for the adults.
Me, I sit in my room ignoring the family and shitposting about amphibian creatures on a Swedish IKEA comment section.

and, sometimes, throw cold water to them

Kids go from house to house dressed up like witches and trade willow sticks for candy. It is also common to grow grass in a bowl inside and do easter egg hunts. Mämmi is the seasonal food of easter.

Compete whose colored egg is stronger. Hit two eggs, one of them is broken. Repeat several times with different people. Then eat eggs and drink vodka. There are cakes. Religious people (most women) attend the church for a night prayer marathon.

I was looking at American Public holidays and I had trouble finding Good Friday or Easter Monday. Do you call it an American name, because it almost seems as if Americans don't celebrate Easter.

Is this actually true? Cos it seems pretty fun

>>72525823
Yeah, the egg breaking thing is the tradition most people engage.

Typically Orthodox Easter involves baking a special kind of cake (Kulich) and diary-product dish thing (Paskha which is also the name of Easter in Russian) along with painted eggs.
Ideally, you bring those to the church to bless them, but most people don't bother.
There's also a special greeting people do this day.

Most of the "Orthodox Christians" give shit about religious holidays as an excuse to drink vodka and gluttony.

By dressing in pagan costumes and making goofy decorations that have jack shit to do with christianity.

The same at the end of February, Shrovetide week. Baking pancakes, pancakes as a symbol of the sun. Has roots in pagan worship of the sun.
