Something that people don't talk about much is the Easter
Frog. The Easter Frog is friends with
the Easter Bunny and stops at some of the same houses, but also stops at some
houses where the Easter Bunny doesn't go.
The Easter Frog doesn't usually visit people on Easter, because he can't
risk getting caught. The Easter Frog has
to keep out of trouble so he can visit the people who most need him. The Easter Frog doesn't leave candy in a
basket out where people can see it.
Instead, he sneaks some nice surprise into people's ordinary days when
they are least expecting it. Usually people don't even know that they have been
visited by the Easter Frog. They simply
find a wonderful smooth stone on their way home from school, or they get an
extra cookie on their lunch tray one day, or they find five dollars in an old
wallet when they are cleaning. Sometimes
they get something big like a surprise day off that the Easter Frog arranged
with their boss. But it is always
supposed to be a secret. If you suspect that something nice has happened to you
because of the Easter Frog, you should not tell people that you think you got
visited by the Easter Frog. In fact, you
should say "I doubt that this is because of the Easter Frog."
