Hey angie mac – cool video w the science – and good to know a ph4 is ideal – ha!
– and when the kids were younger we used to try and dye some eggs each year – they would decorate the eggs with a wax crayon and then we would dip them and the deign would show. on year we had the store bought “appliqués” to put on eggs – and that was nice for motor skills and art.
Then we stopped for a few years straight – older kids and all that.
however, because I now love to eat eggs more than ever in my life (as most know…. eggs are such a rich source of protein and also feed the brain) – so this year I am going to quickly dye 2 dozen to have in a basket in the afternoon. For snacking on… and the rest will go in the refrigerator for later. I find that if the hard bolded eggs are sitting there – well everyone usually just takes them…

Great ideas here, Yvette! Thanks so much for sharing. The way we do eggs each year is flexible and changes, which is nice. This year, we’ll do the basics because yesterday and today have been filled with extra baseball. There have been years when we’ve decorated the eggs *after* Easter. I’m pretty psyched to have the science to back us up this year and believe it or not, I happen to own some ph strips so I get to feel prepared 😀 Happy Easter to you and yours ❤

Little League, high school, and college baseball. I couldn’t be happier 😀 Plus, my Arizona Diamondbacks home opener is on Monday. I’ll be blogging more about baseball soon. I’ll try not to overdo!

We dye eggs and my son eats almost every one of them 😉 always a big competition in my house to create the best egg 😉

I’m so glad that you brought up the (mostly) friendly competition aspect, lol! It’s fun, also, to see each family member’s personality shine through. From sloppy to detailed to pale or bright, each is lovely in their own right 😀

People are voting on Facebook as we speak and everyone’s egg has been a favorite several times. Everyone’s a winner right BUT I’m not sure the competition is friendly 😉
