At the end of Easter last year I bought a box of fake eggs on clearance for like 25¢ that look like real eggs.  I bought them because my kids like to dye eggs but they hate hard boiled eggs.  So my thinking was why waste real eggs.  Why not buy a box of these every year and let them color them and we get to save them every year.  Yah, no.  They suck….BIG TIME!!!!  But the egg dipper was neat so we saved that!

Fake Eggs

So here we are ready to start.  They were so excited to have 3 dozen eggs to color cause I hate coloring eggs. Actually it’s fun.  I hate the set up and the sharing the eggs and colors.  So this year with the fake eggs I decided to let them each choose their own coloring kit too.  No fussing right!  Well that actually worked.  Problem is these eggs float.  You have to hold them down so they’ll color.  Then they don’t hold color that well so every color came out pastel, no matter how long you left it in there. UGH!

Ready

End result….SUCK!  I do not recommend these for regular coloring.  Maybe drawing on them with sharpies would be good but I dunno, I trashed them and will not buy anymore.  Back to wasting regular eggs for this family!
