Easy Easter activities for the whole family
Easter is around the corner, and it's the perfect time to engage kids in a spectrum of craft and fun activities.
Tie Dyed Easter Eggs
A twist on a classic Easter craft. Suitable for ages 3+ with adult supervision.
Supplies:
- Hard-boiled eggs
- Vinegar
- Food coloring in various shades
- Bi Carb Soda
- Paint brushes
- Small bowls
- A muffin tray
Step-by-Step Guide:
- Prep the eggs by boiling them until hard, then letting them cool.
- Place an egg in each hole of the muffin tray.
- In small bowls, mix bi carb soda with a few drops of food dye to make the "paint".
- Using paint brushes, apply the different coloured "paint" to the eggs. The muffin tray will aid to keep the mess contained.
- Once all the eggs are painted leave for 10 mins for the colour to set.
- Then pour a mixture of vinegar and water (1 part vinegar to 4 parts water) into each muffin hole. Kids will delight in seeing their creations fizz as the bi carb and vinegar reacts.
- Carefully remove the eggs, and rinse in cold water. Dry them with paper towels and marvel at the tie dyed results!
