Shaving Eggs?

We started a project today. The kids shaved eggs! Well, kinda.


We used shaving cream, liquid dye (for stamp pad refilling), and a squeegee to create our eggs.


First we sprayed shaving cream onto a cookie sheet. We sprinkled dye colors onto the shaving cream and then swirled the colors into the shaving cream with a craft stick ( Popsicle stick).


Then we took our "egg," which is an egg shape cut out of cardstock paper, and placed it on top of the swirled shaving cream, pressing it down carefully.


Next, my parent helper picked up the egg and used the squeegee to get the excess cream off of the egg.


Finally, we set them out to dry, and they are pretty and they smell pretty good too.
