Description: New York - Easter is a holiday that is special for Nora Heddendorf, 6 years old. It's a time when she likes to dress with fancy shoes and dresses and go on a hunt with her family and friends for colorful eggs. This year, the coronavirus epidemic has forced her into a state of adaptation. She will complete her Easter outfit with a white mask, blue disposable gloves, and a container of disinfectant wipes. After hearing that the annual egg hunt in her New Jersey town might be cancelled, she thought of a "rock hunt". The hunt of Nora's article not only substitutes brightly painted stones for eggs which are scarce at certain stores, but also allows her neighbors to hunt while they are on their social-distancing walks. Article content "I was sad it was going to be cancelled because of the virus," the child told Reuters in a telephone interview. "I want to make people feel happy." From the White House to small town parks The pandemic has prompted the elimination of the traditional Easter egg hunts and "rolls" across the United States, closed churches and scotched plans for Easter meals with extended families. But many Americans are still finding ways to enjoy the holidays for the holidays, from an Oregon candy maker creating chocolate bunnies with face masks to an Texas church hosting an egg hunt in virtual reality using the video game Minecraft. Article content Nora and her mother started organizing their hunt in Medford Lakes a few weeks ago. She assembled dozens of DIY kits, each containing five rocks as well as four paint colors and instructions, all wrapped in the plastic bag. minecraft Of course, she was wearing disposable gloves and spraying the contents with disinfectant. Then, she left the kits outside her home for pick-up by anyone who wants to participate. The young artist, Nora's Rocks requested her friends return the rocks she had left to her for hiding. Gaming "Thank you for helping Nora's Rocks bring our community together yet remain separate," she wrote in the instruction letter that she included with her kits. Her mother, Samantha Heddendorf, president of an environmental cleanup business which has been removing toxins from areas affected by the coronavirus outbreak, said the hunt will start on Good Friday and run until Easter Sunday, when fresh paint-stained rocks being hidden every day.

In Central Point, Oregon, chocolatier Jeff Shepherd had a brainstorm to save his Lillie Belle Farms from shutdown due to the coronavirus. He told his Facebook followers that he would make "Covid Bunnies" which are dark and milk chocolate with white face masks , and white chocolate ones with blue masks for faces. It was an incredible success. Shepherd was able to hire back the seven full-time staff who he had let go, has sold 5,000 bunnies and is in a frenzy with back orders. He is now limiting purchases to six per customer.

Reverend Curtis James stated, "Our main goal in life is to spread the gospel. We also want children to be able to enjoy Easter." Nora was thrilled to find that her idea was so well received in New Jersey. The mayor came to visit her to fill the kits, and the Lions Club invited her to lunch "when the whole thing is finished." Her favorite "thanks" was gift-wrapped roll of toilet paper. This was one of the staples that people shopped for in the panic of the pandemic. Nora said, "My mom smiled when toilet paper arrived."
