Egg Decorating with PAAS

Time is ticking ... better get those eggs ready before the bunny arrives!  Coloring and Decorating Easter Eggs proved to be a lot of fun and super easy with the help of a few provided PAAS Egg Decorating Kits.  This year you can find the following kits for just $2.99 at major grocery, drug store, and mass merchandiser chains nationwide.

Pirate Princess: Packed with 90 stickers, color tablets, egg stands and more, this kit will inspire little pirates and princesses to dress up eggs with buried treasure, skulls and crossbones, tall ships and more.

Wild Wheels: Hit the open road with PAAS Wild Wheels. Stickers and egg stands help transform ordinary dyed eggs into road-worthy hot rods. 

Fun Eggspressions: A great way to unleash creativity and “egg-spress” the artist within, this kit contains sand for color and texture, paint, stickers and more. 

Basket Buddies: Perfect for the pet lover, this kit lets you create egg masterpieces using stickers of cuddly puppies, adorable kittens and playful bunnies. 

Easter Traditions: Featuring some of our classic designs, this kit includes the traditional symbols of the Easter season.

Our almost 3 year old twins, 10 year old daughter, and 12 year old son put the Pirate Princess, Wild Wheels, and Basket Buddies kits to the test.  Mommy was in charge of egg boiling (of course) and everyone helped gently place their share of eggs in the various colors.  Next, it was time to adorn them all with stickers and more.  

We had pirate eggs, princess eggs, hot rod eggs, and cuddly pet coated eggs. Yes, I said HAD.

It's a good thing we enjoyed the whole process immensely since the twins managed to get into the adorned eggs yesterday making it necessary for a round 2 if we want decorated eggs on our Easter table.  See yesterday's post for details.  But hey, it's all about the experience and process in the end anyway, right?
