If you love trying Easter egg ideas, these easy speckled Easter<\/a> eggs are super fun to create using rice and food coloring<\/a>! <\/em><\/p>\n

Are you ready to learn a unique and mess-free method to color eggs!!<\/h2>\n

Try dying dried rice using food coloring and then shaking your hard-boiled eggs with the rice! It’s so easy and is one of the least messy ways I have tried when coloring eggs. The result is a very pretty speckled dyed egg you’ll be proud of!<\/p>\n

I want to confess something. When my kids were young, we skipped dying eggs for a few years or maybe many years. LOL, It was because I couldn’t handle the dyed fingers and mess that ultimately ensued. I have a feeling I am not alone in this struggle. <\/em><\/p>\n

I am happy to report that this Easter craft is excellent for all ages!<\/h2>\n

Young kids can have fun shaking up the rice container with the egg. You can just stick with one color or add the egg to a different container with another color of rice to make pretty color combinations. I love how adorable these turned out, and it’s perhaps a less messy alternative to the Easter egg kits in which you dunk eggs into dye.<\/p>\n

You will be left with some leftover dyed rice, but maybe consider using it in another craft or to create a DIY sensory bin<\/a>.<\/p>\n
