DLTK's Holiday Activities for Kids

Materials:

• hard boiled egg(s)
• wax crayons (the waxier the better... in this case cheap crayons are better than crayolas)
• Easter Egg dye:  store bought dye or home made

Directions:

• Draw pictures or designs with wax crayon.  Even white wax crayon will be useful for this project.  
    
• Dip in dye.  
    
• Let dry.  
    
• The dye won't soak through the crayon!  I find cheap crayons work best for this project (crayolas don't have quite enough wax in them though they do work ok).
    
• An adult may need to help hold the egg while the child draws their pictures on it... at least the first time until they get the hang of it.
