Oh the fun times we all have when sisters and kids get together! I had a great time hanging out with my sisters yesterday along with my younger sisters children. The boys had so much fun with their cousins too. TJ spent a long time playing with his little cousin during MJ's nap. It was good to see him engaging with her and playing gently. Baby James is growing so quickly too I can hardly believe it.
Easter is fast approaching so for a fun activity we made these interesting
natural dyed eggs from The Chocolate Muffin Tree. Our plan is to use them as a table centre piece for the family Easter dinner (and eat them too).

Our dyeing material spinach, blueberries, raspberries, rice (for texture) |
|
Filling a pouch with ingredients |
|
MJ loved scooping all the food, and eating the rice bits |
|
Cousin E was very thoughtful about what she wanted and where to place it |
|
Results were paler than expected but still interesting |
|
The blue line came from some tape we had wound around the egg |
Here are some other Easter crafts we have made this week.

Crayon resist / water painting eggs |

Collage palm leaves for Palm Sunday |

We made a banner from the coffee filters we decorated last week. |
Come join us and see what else we have been doing. I'd always love for you to share your ideas with us.
