Egg Decorating
Egg decorating is so much fun and keeps kids entertained for hours. You can use paints, glitter, stickers and anything crafty that you can get your hands on but first you need to blow out the contents of the egg. Here’s how to do it –
-
Pierce a small hole at both ends of the egg and blow into the egg (do this over a bowl) and the contents of the egg will come out.
-
If the egg appears stuck, then swirl it around and blow again.
-
Finally hold your finger over the bottom hole and place the top under running water, shake the egg and blow again.
-
Leave the egg to dry and then they’re ready to decorate.
