Easter Egg Coloring

This year, I decided that I would put my guard down, and not worry about messes, spills, or stains, but yet for my 2 ½ year old to experience the fun and pleasure in Easter Egg coloring.

Here we are, prepping our die, and waiting it for fizz to die down, so we can start coloring our 3 dozen egg. Yes, my ma went a little crazy on the eggs, so that way we had more than enough to practice with. We then just had to get Austin to understand and learn the process so he could enjoy a new activity.

First I thought this could get messy, but yet we kept it under control, and did pretty good not making to big of a mess. The only mess we had is that I spilled the cup of pink liquid right at the beginning, so we had to re-make the pink coloring. Oh well, as they say, shit happens. And here I thought Austin was the one going to make the mess, instead, it was me!

As were starting out this whole process, Austin thought he was going to be cute, and put the egg into the cup all by himself. Ah, I don’t think so, kido, mommy has to assist you so you don’t miss the cup, and have the egg go all over the floor. So, we combined our working efforts, and did it as a team, and egg #1 was a successful dunk.

Patiently we waited for the eggs to be colored, and then I let Austin decide when the eggs were good and ready to come out. He’s now attempting to dig it out all by himself, and look at him go, can he do it? He couldn’t quite get the blue one out, so I had to provide a little assistance with the process.

We worked together as a team, and we got the egg out of the water, and take a look at our finished product. The two of us made a great team, I couldn’t have asked for a better partner in crime to do it with.

Way to go AP! Our first successful Easter Egg coloring adventure!
