The early years
This 1889 photo released by the National Archives shows children egg hunting in Washington. In 1889, 11 years after the Easter Egg Roll became a White House tradition, President Benjamin Harrison added music: The United States Marine Band, also known as "The President's Own," played as children romped on the South Lawn.
