Painting with Eggs
This craft is super-messy, so pull out the smocks and newspaper. Your kids will love the pretty swirls of color and you'll get new artwork for the fridge.

Blogger behind the idea: Scrumdilly-do!

Best for kids ages: 3 and up

What you’ll need: Plastic eggs, water paints, white construction paper, newspaper

How to make it: Fill a dozen or so eggs with different water colors, then let your kids crack them open over white paper (and newspaper to prevent a huge mess!). Have them run their fingers in the paint to make pretty swirls.
