      Thank you! That's exactly what I made my channel for. I don't teach anymore, but I loved making videos for my students. I figured other teachers could also benefit from them. I love being creative.

      I'm planning my next videos, but I'm a bit unsure as to what to make them on. Is there something you would like to see?

      First of all, I don't speak Portuguese. I can Google though. A lot of Easter traditions in English-speaking territories come from Germanic spring customs. Those come from pagan fertility celebrations. The Goddess of Spring is Ostara, or Oester, and Easter comes from her name. Her animal is the rabbit, as it's very fertile, and her symbol is the egg, as it has a sun inside. Nothing to do with Christianity. Christianity incorporated these more ancient traditions to erase the old pagan traditions and also to feel more comfortable to those they converted or forced to convert.
