Easter

Happy Easter, everybody! I made a bunch of eggs, made heads, animals, and a cool ladybug! What did you guys make? Well, sorry I didnt have any crafts for Easter, but I do have an idea for the leftover dye you used for your eggs. This is a very easy craft, you will need:
  • sand or salt
  • leftover dye(s) (or if you have any, food coloring)
  • a paper/plastic cups or paper/plastic plates
  • a stirring stick or any silverware
  • a tiny bottle-I use a empty paint bottle.
So, first is get your paper plate and pour the salt/sand. Put some drops of your dye, then get your stirring stick and mix the salt/sand around. Let that dry for a long time(I let it dry overnight). Get another paper plate and repeat using a different color. Keep repeating until you have all the colors you want.
Later, once all the salt/sand is dry, pour them into your small bottle layering the sand. A cool idea is try to make a rainbow in a bottle. Enjoy!
