Questions and answers
What ages are these Easter questions for?
Ages 5 to 12. An easy one asks what hatches out of a frog's eggs. A hard one asks how many marzipan balls top a simnel cake. About a third are hard, by our estimate.
Why does Easter fall on a different date each year?
Easter is the first Sunday that follows the first full moon on or after March 21. That fixed date stands in for the March equinox. So Easter falls from March 22 to April 25. Many Orthodox churches use the older Julian calendar, so theirs can differ.
Are the questions religious?
Some are. The date topic asks about Lent, Palm Sunday, Good Friday and Pentecost as plain calendar facts. One egg question gives the Christian meaning of red eggs. Each answer was read on September 19, 2026 in the Wikipedia article linked beside it.
