Fun times were had by all. But did you know that Easter egg hunts date back to at least the early 17th century in Europe? Popularity grew when German church reform- er Martin Luther encouraged the tradition. Egg hunts are even listed in the Guinness Book of World Records. The largest hunt ever involved 9,753 children and their parents in Winter Haven, Florida searching for 501,000 eggs back in 2007. That's a lot of food coloring!
