Easter eggs - painting online!



My dear friends!

Today was such a wonderful sunny day, real spring! Bright green leaves of tulips show up from the moist black earth, the sky is so high and blue, and we are still locked in our homes, even more than before.
And yet, no matter how sad it is to sit at home, no one cancelled the wonderful spring holiday - Easter.
What does our Canadian children associate with this Holiday? Of course - colourful eggs!
You can paint paper eggs with markers, you can paint plastic eggs with paint ...
Or, you can try to paint real eggs with hot wax and, believe me - beyond all religious beliefs, this is a fascinating activity for children and adults.
Of course, this painting requires certain skills and special tools, but we will try to make it with any stuff available in any home. After all, did you stock up with colouring for eggs? Then everything else, I am sure, can be found at your home. We will try to conduct our online master class in a few days later. For the beginning, try to collect the necessary materials. You will need:
- stainless steel spoon (which is not used any more)
- a jar or a bottle with water
- paper tape
- candle
- wax crayons
- jars with liquid colouring for eggs 
- any wooden stick
- pin with the ball
Wow ... well, that’s it!
Oh, I forgot - a toilet paper roll 😀 (did you stock up?) Or just napkins - to dry the eggs.
I ask everyone, who interested PM me your e-mail. Well, I think you have ZOOM installed.
It’s not difficult to paint eggs, even 4-5-year-old children are able to do this, of course, under the supervision of adults because we will work with a candle, open fire.
Tomorrow I will tell you how to prepare tools for our master class.
See you!
