There are chocolate eggs in the shops and school holidays around the corner, which can only mean one thing... Easter is on its way.

The Christian celebration of Easter always falls on a Sunday, which is 5 April this year.

And with Easter comes the tradition of making Easter bonnets, which are hats decorated with eggs, chicks, and other things to represent the season.

Where do Easter bonnets come from?

It's thought that the history of Easter bonnets is linked with people wanting to wear nice clothes when going to church - their 'Sunday best'.

After Lent, which is the period of time where Christians often give things up, Easter was a chance for some people to enjoy themselves in style.
