Dying Eggs Then

Yearly traditions, like dying Easter eggs, provide a sense of predictability for our kids. Mikey likes the ease of the egg dying routine and he likes to display them, but he won’t even try one bite! No problem, pal…more for the rest of us!

As always, this tradition takes place in old clothes or pajamas (no one sees your pajamas so stains are A-Okay) AND it takes place outside to prevent any mess or stress. And, of course, everyone helps clean up!
