Let's explore some exciting Easter holiday ideas that are sure to bring joy and happiness to your loved ones.

Egg Dyeing with a Twist

Put a creative spin on an Easter classic and step up your egg dyeing game using ordinary things you have lying around the house. Create a beautiful marble finish by swirling some colorful nail polish into the water before dipping the eggs. Or, add food coloring to a bed of shaving cream and roll the eggs over the surface.

Once dry, gently dip the eggs in water to remove any excess shaving cream. The results are remarkable! You can also make sparkly eggs by mixing glue with glitter and applying with a small paintbrush. No food coloring on hand? No problem! Make your own by simmering natural pigment-rich foods like beets or blueberries in a cup of water with a dash of vinegar. To make your holiday even easier, start by boiling your eggs in saucepan for 9-12 minutes depending upon the doneness you desire. Got a tall order on those easter eggs? Try this super easy Air Fryer Hard-Boiled Eggs recipe to save time and effort on making larger batches. 

MOM PRO TIP: Always dye with gloves, to avoid messy aftermath.
