Easter Egg Fun

Mixing the colors...

We used tape to make stripes and dots.

When the eggs were dry, we removed the tape.
Some we double dipped so the stripes and dots were colored.

We also painted on the eggs...

And made eggs with green hair...

Now, what shall we do with all the hard boiled eggs?!?!?

Bible Reading

Bible Research using various translations and Bible Help Books. My oldest will then be asked to write a paper on what he has learned.
