Anglo-Saxons called this month Eostre Monath. For the Spring Goddess Eostre, who is associated with hares and eggs. Easter was originally a pagan celebration of life returning to the earth following winter.
Of course April begins with April Fools Day :)
An old saying:
"March winds and April showers
Bring forth May flowers."
A time to see Morris Dancers.. Regarded as an ancient tradition as far back as the reign of Elizabeth I (1558-1603). These "madde men with their devils dance" were banned by the Puritans following the English Civil War.
