Natural Egg-Dying

This was a fun tradition in our home growing up so we thought we’d dye some eggs with our toddlers! I always loved getting my hands messy doing these projects as a kid and wanted mine to experience the same kind of freedom! However, our hands used to be stained pink, blue and green for days after the project. I love Color Kitchen Easter Egg Coloring Kit because it’s free of all artificial colors and the colors were vibrant and plant based!

The dye is in powder form and all you have to do is add water! The colors were made from cabbage, radish, and annatto extract. Super easy, doesn’t stain, and you have a kid safe project!
