Description of Easter celebration or activity:
This is a traditional game my family (Cajun) used to play. On Easter day, after church, we would "Pock" dyed Easter eggs. One person holds their egg above another person's hard-boiled egg (pointed ends together) and slowly taps - the person whose egg cracks loses. The other person then challenges someone else in the family to pock - until the champion egg (the strongest egg) is found. We would pock with grandparents, parents, cousins, etc. Always fun!

Setting up and preparing for this celebration or activity:
Boil and dye eggs.
