Dying your own Easter eggs is a fun activity to do with kids and it can bring awareness to the amazing properties of plants 🌱 and possibly give them the desire to try new foods! Who knows. Here are the plant based things we have used:

❤️ RED                        beets

💛 YELLOW                 turmeric 

🧡 ORANGE                onion 🧅 skins

💙 BLUE                      purple cabbage 

🖤 Dark Blue/black     blueberries 🫐 or TAZO passion fruit tea

How to naturally dye your Easter eggs:

Boil the water 💦 with your plant ingredient. Let cool, add a tablespoon of vinegar to each cup of water.

Add in your hard boiled eggs 🥚 

Let them sit for an hour or overnight in the refrigerator. The longer they sit the darker the color. Dry your eggs off and keep in the refrigerator.
