The Health Minister has confirmed the Easter Bunny is allowed to work this weekend.
It's after a number of children got in touch with Simon Harris.
He tweeted to say the Easter Bunny has been given the go ahead from our top doctors to deliver eggs.
But he has been reminded about washing his hands regularly and keeping his distance.
Important news for children: Many of you contacted me & asked me to if the Easter Bunny was allowed work this weekend. I have checked with our top doctors & the good news is he can. But he has been contacted to remind him about washing his hands regularly & keeping his distance

The Prime Minister of New Zealand, Jacinda Ardern, was also reassuring children that the Easter Bunny would be permitted to deliver eggs this Sunday.
But she said he may not be able to get to everyone.
"You'll be pleased to know, that we consider both the Tooth Fairy and the Easter Bunny to be essential workers."
The PM Jacinda Ardern has suggested drawing easter eggs to pop in your front window so children in your neighbourhood can go on an Easter egg hunt. #Covid19 pic.twitter.com/zUVQJxj5EO
