Easter Egg Masterpieces!

I had to tell Danni the rules first.  (No splashing. No throwing eggs. No drinking the colors.)

I started with the green and blue!

Danni went straight for the pink!

'This eggie is blank!'

Danni found a yellow egg!

Teaching her the fine art of using an 'egg spoon' to get the eggies out of their colors.

Upsided!!

This one was my favorite-best!

Egg dying requires great concentration!

Teamwork!

So much for the egg spoon!

Danni forgot the rule about not splasherizing!

I taught her how to mix colors too!  :)
A year ago, Danni was too little to help with all of the Easter preparations!  This year, she was VERY into it!  I taught her how to dye Easter eggs ... and I must say, I'm a pretty good teacher, because she did an awesome job!  It was a beautiful day, so we dyed our eggs outside.  (I kinda think my parents wanted to be able to hose down our mess afterward too!)   We made some beautiful eggs ... but so much for eating them.  Boiled eggs are nasty!
