When it comes to decorating Easter eggs with young kids, I’m always looking for easy and different options. I discovered that scribbling on still-warm hardboiled eggs with a crayon makes for a cool design and vibrant color…
Here's the thing — be sure to work with hardboiled eggs while they are still warm; the crayon melts onto the eggshell. Just grab a few crayons and start scribbling!
Kids of all ages can do this and it's far less messy than the traditional method.
I usually use a white crayon then dip them in the colors, this is a great alternative and very clean! Thank you!
Hey Samantha – We used to do that too! Glad you like this one – all the best, Camilla
Very cool idea! I am impressed by your perfectly random squiggles.
I also used to use a white crayon, but I think my three year old will like using colorful crayons. Especially since lately she wants everything to be rainbow.
Thanks for the idea!

What a great suggestion!! My kids are 4,3 and 14 months old. They love crayons.. we will definitely decorate some of the eggs this way. How fun! Thanks!
