This one's a little late - sorry. Easy craft, but needs adult supervision. These are fun AND if kept in the fridge can be eaten (if you like hard boiled eggs)
What You Need: Eggs, food colouring, crayons.
What To Do: Hard boil your eggs (I boil mine for about 10 - 15 minutes), run the eggs under cool water until they can easily be handled and then completely dry them. Mix up some food colouring and water in small dishes (the more colour, the brighter it'll be on the egg). Have child, carefully, draw on the egg with crayon - older children can draw faces or repetitive designs. Dip the egg in colour (a quick dip will give you lighter colour, than letting it soak). You can do single colour eggs or you can dip multiple times for fun colour combos and colour mixing (this is good for teaching that two colours make a whole new one!).
**Hard boiled eggs can be kept for up to a week, if they are kept in the fridge.
