Easter is just around the corner & it’s time to boil those eggs and decorate! For some it is a household tradition and others you might be trying this for the first time.

FatCats is all about family fun time & there’s nothing better than sitting around the kitchen table coloring Easter eggs. While the traditional colored tablets are fun, here are some new ideas your family can try!

Use crayons. After boiling your eggs let them cool for a few minutes. While the eggs are still warm hold an egg with a paper towel and use a crayon to color it. The heat of the egg will melt the wax, making fun designs. Crayons are less messy too!

Glitter eggs. We suggest using a blown egg (see instructions below). Dilute craft glue with equal parts water and glue and cover the egg. Roll it in superfine glitter and let it dry. Oh so pretty!

To blow out an egg, begin by using the tip of a sharp utility knife to pierce both ends of the egg; turn the knife in one of the holes to widen it slightly. Then, poke a straightened paper clip through the larger hole to pierce and “stir” the yolk. Hold the egg, larger hole down, over a bowl, and then blow the contents out with a rubber ear syringe (available at drugstores).marthastewart.com

Hard-boiled Eggs One of many ways to hard-boil eggs: Put eggs in a large pot, in a single layer and cover with COLD water. Turn on the heat under the eggs and as soon as they come to a full boil, remove them from the heat and let them sit in the hot water for about 15-20 minutes.
