Easter Festivities, Part I

We went to my parents' house after church on Easter with the intention of coloring eggs. I'd already hard boiled almost 2 dozen a couple of days ahead of time, so really all we had to do was the dipping. We decided to just do 3 mugs of dye, the primary colors, and turn it into a learning game at the same time.Each munchkin had one mug at a time, so we started out with singular colors...Then we started dipping them into different colors to see what secondary colors we ended up with...They even got to dip their own eggs...... with adult supervision and sometimes intervention...Here are the three Easter hams with my mother.And the spoils of coloring. In case you're wondering, Mommy did the rainbow-colored eggs.We even drew bunnies on one egg for each kid. We had a few casualties (eggs hitting the floor), but over all they had fun. We left 1/2 at Mom's house and we took the other half home for use in deviled eggs. Mmmm, yummy! In the mean time, stay tuned for Part II, The Hunt!
