Look what I woke up to Saturday morning as I was preparing for Easter Egg hunts and outside fun.So, we skipped all that and dyed eggs.
Note to self (which I wish I received a day ago): It's not a necessity to introduce dyeing Easter Eggs with toddlers. Wait until they're at least in elementary school! It'll save you a lot of stress.
As pretty as they are....
The dye likes to leave a lasting impression.
Maybe I should have learned after staining my fingers that this wasn't the best idea.
Until I saw the end result, happy (though slightly mischievous) face and all!
We gave Eliza old school paints to use on already dyed eggs, which suited her just fine.
I took proper precautions with all the newspaper ads I could find, garbage bags as painting suits (the kids got the biggest kick out of these!) and constant overseeing. I was pretty stressed the whole time.
They sure enjoyed themselves though!Mostly cracked from numerous droppings on the floor, the results are bright and one of a kind!
