Peter Cottontail thought that Santa and his elves had a great idea tracking the reactions from children that were mailed authentic letters. He quickly began doing the same. It took many hours to survey the parents and examine all his Easter Bunny letters from over the years for any feedback.

After all the work of gathering information he tallied up all his data which proved that more children have a spectacular Easter when they receive a “real” letter in the mailbox. Some parents did report that it did make a difference in how their child enjoyed the holiday. However, majority of parents stated that it made an overwhelming impact in a positive way. In addition, as said in the prior study, many people who did not receive a special letter agreed that the holiday would have been infinitely more positive had they received an Easter Bunny letter. They said that getting a genuine letter from Peter Cottontail made the children feel special.

These days, children have a hard time believing in exciting holiday icons such as Santa, and the Easter Bunny. This makes it harder to surprise them with letters from the Easter Bunny and other holiday icons. When a child opens up a letter from the mailbox that is addressed to them and references personal things, it puts the magic of the holiday back into the air for them. Parents also agreed that when they think about their own childhood, the most memorable holidays were associated with receiving something very special made just for them. Very simple gestures result in a memory that lasts a lifetime.

The Bunny represents everything fun in Easter. Children get excited in the morning when they wake up and they see all the eggs and treats he has left for them. The Easter Bunny symbolizes the beginning of spring. Springtime is the season where nature re-creates life and gives all living things a natural sense of hope to exist. Believing is that one crucial thing you need to keep your eyes forward and your head up. When a child believes, it allows them to approach to New Year with positivity and optimism…just as nature intended.
