These melted crayon eggs turned out SO COOL!  As the crayons melted onto the eggs the colors swirled and blended in the most stunning ways! We didn't use regular crayons, either.  We used crayons that glow! 

I recommend having lots of hard-boiled eggs on hand when you go to give this a try, because the kids will want to decorate a ton of eggs!  Read on for the easy tutorial.

Melted Crayon Easter Eggs

Materials
Note:  You can use a blacklight fixture for this activity, or you can give  these cool flashlights a try instead.  My girls love using the flashlights!

Preparing the Eggs
  • Begin by placing the desired amount of eggs in a pot and then adding enough water so that the eggs are fully submerged.
  • Bring the eggs to a boil, and then remove the pot from the stove and cover it with a lid for 10-15 minutes.
  • Carefully remove the eggs from the pot and allow them to cool for a minute or two.  Then, the fun can begin!
