What is Easter?

Well, in case you didn't know, I don't believe in God.  It's not that I am Athiest, I just don't know...  It's like, if there really REALLY were a God, why would good people get raped and murdered?  Why do babies die?  I don't know...  It's just all too confusing to me.
Anyway, my son goes to Catholic school, he goes to church, he prays, and I tell him the "stories" about Christmas and Easter and what not...  I, personally, don't believe them, but I don't want to go telling my son "There's not a God".
So, IF the whole story really DID happen, who turned Easter into some commercialized day about bunnies and chocolate?  Like, we can get chocolate any day of the year, but just this one day of the year, we choose to buy chocolate molded into the shape of a rabbit, and hide chocolate eggs all over our houses, and have Easter egg hunts, dye eggs, all that stuff, that, in all reality, if the story were true, would have nothing to do with the true meaning of Easter.
