To dye for

So, Easter. Right. There are two activities planned for the English students at our school: egg colouring and an egg roll. The egg painting took place yesterday, and the egg roll will be held tomorrow.

We tried dying the eggs in dyed water, however the colour wasn't taking well. Other options were considered, but we ended up just having the students use paint brushes to apply dye to the shells of the hard boiled eggs. I really thought four bottles of ink wouldn't be enough. How wrong I was...

I remember good old food colouring and vinegar!
