"Three eggs?" you ask... Let me explain:Me: "I loved dyeing easter eggs when I was little. I should do this with Ollie!"
I called my mom to find out what to mix together, added colors and then got out the 4 eggs I had hard-boiled the other day. I got out the crayons, and we started coloring.
Ollie cracked the egg on the bowl.
Me: "Ollie, don't crack these. These are to color!"
He attempts to color again. I go to the pantry to grab something. "Crack!" Ollie has squeezed an entire egg to pieces. That one will be for lunch...
I put our 3 eggs (one of which has a crack--also from Ollie) into the color. I take them out. They dry. Total time: 3 minutes.
Maybe we'll wait until he's 5.

I have fond memories of dyeing eggs also! We didn't have plastic eggs in Japan at all - nor chocolate bunnies.

Ummm...I totally understand. I tried to dye eggs last year with Noah and it didn't go very well. I'm debating if I even try it again this year or just wait until he's 4. Surely, as a 4 year old he'll be able to handle it....right?
Thank you for reminding me to go boil some eggs for tomorrow...
Not too often I sit and laugh at the computer, but I must admit that Ollie and your egg adventure surely made me do so. Love the pictures you post of both your kids. Enjoy these years - they are frustrating, but oh so very fleeting!
Have a blessed Easter.
