Easter is this weekend, and Google has planted real (virtual) Easter eggs for search engine users when they query vacation terms.

Users who search for “Easter”, “Easter 2020” and other Easter related topics will see a banner in the upper right corner of their search results page that illustrates some of the adorable animals associated with the holidays, including a pink rabbit and a chick hatched from a decorated egg.

Google is deploying an AR Easter Bunny for your phone.

On Friday afternoon, the research giant also announced the launch of a 3D Easter bunny that will appear on the screens of mobile devices. After a mobile user searches for “Easter Bunny”, a augmented reality the rabbit, accompanied by a festive bow tie, will be displayed in users’ living spaces. Google’s AR Easter Bunny will be available until April 19.

Google has also created an immersive Arts & Culture exhibition which explores the history and traditions of Easter. It also examines how holidays are celebrated around the world, from flying bells to chocolate eggs.

And if you’re still looking for ideas on what to serve for your Easter party, Google’s search results also include cameos from famous chefs answering a series of questions about favorite meals and dishes.

This is not the first time that Google has planted an Easter egg in its search results. In April 2019, approaching the release of the movie Avengers: Endgame, a simple Google query for Thanos, the supervillain who broke half the universe in Avengers: Infinity War in 2018, would instantly transform the results of dust research.

In July, queries on terms such as “fireworks”, “fireworks near my home” or “July 4” sparked a burst of brightly colored fireworks on the results page for research.

For more difficult results, search on Google for “askew”, “anagram” or “do a barrel roll”. (Pro tip: keep Dramamine handy for the last one.)
