April is known for its beautiful spring weather and the onset of warmer temperatures, coinciding with the time when the Easter Bunny makes its appearance. The word “April” is derived from the Latin verb “aperire,” which means “to open.” It is commonly believed that this refers to the season when trees and flowers begin to “open” or bloom. April had only 29 days, but a 30th day was added when Julius Caesar established the Julian calendar.
