Easter eggs, also called Paschal eggs,[1] are decorated eggs that are usually used as gifts on the occasion of Easter. As such, Easter eggs are common during the season of Eastertide (Easter season). The oldest tradition is to use dyed and painted chicken eggs, but a modern custom is to substitute chocolate eggs wrapped in colourful foil, hand-carved wooden eggs, or plastic eggs filled with confectionery such as chocolate. Although eggs, in general, were a traditional symbol of fertility and rebirth,[2] in Christianity, for the celebration of Eastertide, Easter eggs symbolize the empty tomb of Jesus, from which Jesus resurrected.[3][4][5] In addition, one ancient tradition was the staining of Easter eggs with the colour red "in memory of the blood of Christ, shed as at that time of his crucifixion."[3][6] This custom of the Easter egg can be traced to early Christians of Mesopotamia, and from there it spread into Russia and Siberia through the Orthodox Churches, and later into Europe through the Catholic and Protestant Churches.[6][7][8][9] This Christian use of eggs may have been influenced by practices in "pre-dynastic period in Egypt, as well as amid the early cultures of Mesopotamia and Crete".[10] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Easter_egg)

I like this one, too:

Easter Egg Coloring (with rice)

1. Food color
2. Vinegar
3. Measuring cup
4. Spoon
5. Hard boiled eggs

6. A few glasses or cups

Fill the food color into your glasses....one color per glass.

Now:

We need water! Fill 200 - 250ml cold water into each glass....

2 spoons vinegar per glass....

Now: Take your hard boiled eggs and put them into the glasses. Be careful so you do not mess (It would not be bad, but there are spots :-)

Wait 5 - 8 min (or longer if you want. If you wait longer, the color becomes more intense)

Now carefully remove the eggs from the glasses and place them on a dry cloth.

Let them dry for maybe 10-20 min.

You're READY....

Happy Easter my Friends :-)
