Colored Easter Eggs
Colored Easter eggs are synonymous with the festival of Easter. With a little bit of care, one can easily make a basketful of beautifully decorated Easter eggs.
Materials Required:
Eggs
A child-safe sharp pin/needle
Assorted food coloring
Tape and rubber bands
Steps:
Use a sharp-pointed pin to screw a small hole in each end of an egg. Then hold the egg over a saucer and blow hard into one hole until all the contents have run out of the other hole. Allow the eggs to dry out overnight.
In order to make the tape eggs, cut different shapes from the tape, such as circles, squares and strips. Press the tape onto the eggs in any pattern you like. While pressing the tape ensure that the coloring does not run under. Dip the eggs in the food coloring and when they become dry, remove the tape.
To make the string striped eggs, you can wrap rubber bands of all sizes around eggs in many different directions. Dip the eggs in the food coloring. When eggs have dried, remove the rubber bands.
