What does Easter look like for a Jewish atheist family? I still don’t know. We follow along with friends every year, uncertain what our own traditions are. I think my kids like to celebrate – they’ll decorate for pretty much any occasion – so I’m game. Let’s get this Easter party started. Here are a bunch of local events where you can show your kids a little bit of Easter fun.
