Put 10,000 eggs and just as many kids together for a few hours and it could be a recipe for disaster. Not so, according to CL Arbelbide, author of a book about the White House's annual Easter Egg Roll. "The event has always been about the children," she says. In fact, it was the pint-size rollers who petitioned to use the president's backyard after an 1876 law banned the egg roll from the Capitol lawn. In modern times, the first lady oversees the day's events, which have included performances by the Jonas Brothers and Miley Cyrus. But whomever Michelle Obama picks to play on April 13 won't top two new stars: First daughters Malia and Sasha will be the big draw this year, says Arbelbide.
