Setting up for the Party
You’ll need to prepare the egg decorating work area by covering your table with newspaper, craft paper, or colorful plastic covers. Be sure to have plenty of napkins handy for little decorators to dry their hands or to mop up any spills. Have all your guests wear smocks or aprons and be ready for a creative session of egg decorating.

• Eggshells
• Easter egg color kit
• Vinegar (optional for vibrant colored eggs)
