Kool-aid Dyed Easter Eggs

Dying Easter Eggs with Kool-aid
- Have kids carefully place hard boiled eggs into the dye and allow them to sit.
- Turn the eggs in the dye to ensure that all sides are colored evenly.
- You can leave the eggs in for varying amounts of time to create different colors of eggs.
- Once you are happy with the color of your egg(s) remove them from the dye and place them onto paper towels to dry.
