This egg-citing Easter craft will have you clucking for joy! Learn how to dye your very own Easter eggs.

white eggs (hard-boiled)
food coloring
vinegar
plastic cups
spoons
crayons
rubber gloves

REMEMBER THAT IT'S IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS WORK UNDER ADULT SUPERVISION. SOMETIMES WE USE THINGS THAT CAN BE HARMFUL, LIKE SCISSORS, SO DON'T EVER ATTEMPT TO MAKE THESE CRAFT PROJECTS ALONE.

  1. Fill plastic cups with water. Make a cup for each color you want to use.
  2. Add a little bit of vinegar to each cup. This will help the dye stick to the eggs.
  3. Add five drops of a different food coloring to each cup.
  4. Mix them in with a spoon to get them good and even in each cup.
  5. Use your crayons to decorate your eggs before dying them (optional). The dye won’t stick to where you draw because the crayons are wax-based.
  6. Dye the eggs by dipping them into your dye-filled cups with spoons. Be sure to use rubber gloves to prevent getting dye on your hands. The longer you leave the eggs in the dye, the darker the color will be. They should each soak for at least five minutes. You can also half-dye eggs by sticking each end into a different dye.
