The Easter Egg Roll began in 1878, with each first family putting their unique stamp on the event. This year, the White House has official souvenir eggs available for purchase.
The eggs have the signatures of President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden imprinted on the back.
Participants can complete a worksheet of fun facts from the scavenger hunt for a chance to win a set of the official Easter eggs.
