Washington – The old White House tradition has come back to celebrate Easter as President Donald Trump and Mrs. Melania Trump invited Americans to join the White House egg rolls on Monday.
Over 30,000 visitors were reported walking around the property.
This year’s festival, held in South Lawn, includes our beloved egg rolls, the best military cardwriting stations, Be Best Hop Scotch and Reading Nook.
There were also a variety of activities, including bouquet buildings of flowers, egg and cookie decorations, kicking soccer balls, running through tunnels, and various patriotic and festive photography opportunities.

President Trump also plunged into the fun, remembering his previous egg rolls while standing with the Easter Bunny. “When Bunny took out Joe Biden… he wasn’t taking out Trump. It was a good, beautiful moment when Bunny saved Joe Biden’s life,” the president joked in a light moment.
The President and First Lady then moved to an area where children were coloring Easter themed photos.
“I’m really interested in this,” the president said, enjoying the happy event.
