President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden on Monday welcomed approximately 30,000 guests to their backyard for the return of the annual White HouseEaster Egg Roll, the largest event the Bidens have hosted there since moving in amid the Covid-19 pandemic.
Dr Biden, whose office organised the event, chose this year’s theme of “EGGucation” — a nod to her background as a teacher — to honour what she described as “the determined spirit of education” by turning the South Lawn into a “school community,” complete with a “reading nook” where children could hear books read aloud to them, and a “physical eggucation” area with basketball and soccer equipment.
