President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden kicked off the first White House Easter Egg Roll in two years, since before the coronavirus pandemic, Monday, April 18. They welcomed 30,000 kids and adults for the all-day event. The theme for the day was "egg-ucation." Besides the egg roll and an egg hunt, the event included a schoolhouse activity area, a reading nook, a talent show, a place to teach about farming, a photo-taking station, a physical "egg-ucation" zone with an obstacle course, and a "cafetorium" where children learned to make treats. The COVID-19 pandemic led the White House to cancel the Easter Egg Roll in 2020 and 2021. But the event is back this year, as the outbreak of coronavirus cases, hospitalizations and deaths has eased. The White House Easter Egg Roll dates to 1878.
