Egg Dyeing

Gabe and Lydia had the dining table masked in newspaper and tape, open and waiting egg cartons labeled with their names, mugs and spoons counted out for the dye before I came down the stairs this morning. With heightened expectancy, they waited while I boiled the eggs and water. We then had to wait for eggs and dye to cool, but it was only mid-morning when we could begin! I used brown eggs, 20 drops of food color (red, yellow, blue), 1 tsp white vinegar, and 1/2 cup hot water for each glass. Gabe and Lydia re-dipped their eggs for their secondary colors.
