We've been looking forward to dying our eggs for sometime. On Friday, Daddy got home early from work, so it seemed like the perfect time. Our friends Owen and Evan were coming home from a walk, so they decided to join us. I felt like a teacher again! I got all our supplies ready, set everything up outside, and the kids helped me pour in the vinegar and water, stir the cups, and get all ready- what fun! Needless to say, I was reminded of a quote from our preschool: projects with kids this age are often more focused on process rather than product. The kids quickly flew threw all the eggs. An added bonus this year......actually eating the eggs! I'm not sure why this never occurred to me in past years, but Lizzy told me they had eaten their eggs for snack at school, and she wanted to have one. What a good idea! I couldn't remember the last time I'd eaten a hard boiled egg, and it was yummy. Dying eggs with the kids is always one of my favorite Easter traditions:)
