Easy Easter Eggs
ages 4-6
Supplies
Eggs, wooden skewers (optional), fine point Sharpies, stickers, basket
Activity Detail
A unique way to do your easter eggs this year! Begin with a batch of hard boiled eggs. (Alternately, you can take a wooden skewer and put it through a raw egg, letting the yolk and white run out.) Rinse the outside of the empty eggshells well and let them dry. Using fine point, colored Sharpies, let your child draw lines, flowers, polka dots, whatever he or she can imagine. Then add some stickers, and you have a batch of very easy Easter eggs. Put them in a basket for display.

Egg should not be boiled before hand. Sounds great for the older child.

When your child is drawing on the eggs they have to be very gentle. This can also be a good time to introduce cause and effect! If I press too hard the egg wil break and we will have to start over.
