Getting ready for Easter!

We have been getting excited for Easter around here...  Jack and Rory helped me dye some eggs this afternoon!

 First, we boiled the eggs. Then Jack and Rory chose the colours that they wanted to dye the eggs. We mixed food colouring with water and vinegar, and then Jack dropped the eggs in.

 Pretty colours!
Then Jack and Rory took a little bit of dye and mixed it with olive oil, and pushed the eggs around until they had a marbleized pattern.

 Pants were optional for this part of the process.
A basket fit for a bunny!
