Easter Eggs! (round two!!)

   Our dear friend Bill came up with the idea for round two! Shaving cream eggs. Another easy and fun way to decorate Easter eggs with stuff you probably have around the house.

Here are the materials! Shaving cream, food coloring, and of course, boiled eggs.

Simply add drops of the desired color to the shaving cream.

Then plop an egg on in and swirl it around.

It is messy, be warned. But a GREAT sensory activity.

It is best to make a party of it.

Maybe an outside party. 

Love this color combo!

Then just plop your shaving cream covered eggies in the carton and wait!

Blow bubbles.

Make peep s'mores.

When the shaving cream looks deflated and crusty, it's time to wipe them off with a towel (paper works best, guess who forgot paper towels??? This gal!)

Tada! Beautiful, marbled, pastel Easter eggs. We discovered that less shaving cream was better, especially with the bluer tones. More shaving cream created muted tones. If you want bright eggs, more color-to-shaving-cream ratio!
