Easter Egg Roll

136 Years of Fun

On Monday, April 21st, 2014, the First Family hosted the 136th annual White House Easter Egg Roll. This year’s theme was “Hop into Healthy, Swing into Shape,” and more than 30,000 people assembled on the South Lawn to join in the fun. The event featured live music, sports courts, cooking stations, storytelling, and, of course, Easter egg rolling. In addition to all of the fun, the day’s activities encouraged children to lead healthy, active lives in support of the First Lady’s Let’s Move! initiative.
