Kids of all ages will love decorating hard boiled eggs with colorful puffy paints, which can be found at most craft stores. Practice on paper first, until you’re confident with your painting skills. Then let your inner artist run free.

It really doesn’t get any easier than stickers and markers. Plus, the cleanup is easy as can be. Just make sure the eggs are cooled completely after boiling so the stickers won’t peel or come off.
