Jill Biden tried to do this, but it won’t be nearly as amazing as Melania Trump’s plan!
This Monday, April 21, 2025, the White House will host its 147th Easter Egg Roll—a joyful event that brings together children, parents, and grandparents from across the country. The annual celebration dates back to 1878 during President Rutherford B. Hayes’ administration, making it one of the longest-running family events in U.S. history.
“I extend my gratitude to the dedicated East Wing staff for their tireless effort in preparing the upcoming White House Easter Egg Roll,” Melania Trump added, recognizing the behind-the-scenes effort to honor tradition.
Faith, Family, and Freedom on the South Lawn
The Easter Egg Roll, long organized by First Ladies, has grown into a day of laughter, storytelling, and old-fashioned fun. In past years, events have included live music, dancing, egg races, and Christian-themed activities for children—all in the spirit of family togetherness and American heritage.
Each child attending receives a commemorative wooden Easter egg, a treasured keepsake symbolizing the day’s joy. Participants were selected via an online lottery, which closed on March 10.
“I look forward to watching all of the smiles light up this memorable day,” Melania wrote, reminding Americans of the joy that comes from nurturing faith and family values.
A Symbol of America’s Cultural Renewal
Under President Trump’s leadership, traditions like the White House Easter Egg Roll are more than ceremonial—they represent a return to America’s foundational values: God, family, and patriotism.
As liberal culture continues to shift away from timeless Christian principles, conservatives are reclaiming the importance of faith-based celebrations in public life.
