make spotted or striped Easter eggs
Nice project to do together
Details
Spotted Eggs: Put about 2 tsp. of cooking oil (Canola works well) in your dye. (You might want to make two containers of your dye, so you don't mess up all of your regular dye.) When you dip in your egg, it makes the dye not stick to the places where the oil is, thus making mysterious spots on your egg and aweing your friends!
Stripped Eggs: Wrapping electric tape around an egg won't make a clear stripe, but it can make a really cool design! Take one or two pieces and wrap them around or stick them in various places. Then dye your egg. The dye will seem in along the edges of the tape and make great patterns.
