It more or less likely originated from the Christian identification of Easter week as in albis, a Latin expression that was recognized as the plural of alba ("dawn") and then became eostarum in Old High German. Pâques, the French term for Easter, has its roots in the Latin and Greek words pascha ("Passover") and pascha (n.).

In 1878, the Easter Egg Roll at the White House became a custom.

It is believed that while President Rutherford B. Hayes was out for a stroll, kids tried to approach him and inquired about the possibility of an Easter egg roll. It became one of the nicest yearly White House festivities once he adopted the concept, which he adored.

The story of the Easter custom is established in the White House.

The White House Historical Association reports that some historians attribute the invention of a public egg roll to first lady Dolley Madison circa 1810, and there are instances of unofficial egg rolls organized by the children of presidents Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Johnson. The first recognized White House Easter Egg Roll, however, took place in 1878 at an event thrown by Hayes on the South Lawn.

The custom quickly gained widespread. From the South Portico, presidents would frequently observe as families enjoyed picnic meals on blankets and kids engaged in activities like "toss and catch" and "egg plucking," in which they beat eggs against one another to see which would break first.

In the East Room in 1887, Grover Cleveland individually exchanged greetings with every youngster there. The room was later covered in broken eggshells. The United States Marine Band, under the direction of John Phillip Sousa, was enlisted by President Benjamin Harrison two years later to perform rousing music for the occasion. Every year, more people arrived, until in 1937, the South Lawn was overrun with almost 50,000 spectators.
