Science Fun: Food Coloring Flowers Rather Than Dying Easter Eggs

Our Middle Girl shares the fun we had with this simple science activity.

We have always dyed eggs for Easter. It’s fun to watch them turn all the pretty pastel colors. But my younger brother is allergic to eggs. And he’s older. And we wanted him to be able to join in the fun. And be safe.

So my mom asked what we should dye instead. My older sister said flowers!

I picked up a pot of daisies when I went to the store with my dad.

Yesterday, we put the dye in lots of containers of water. We even made pink!

We mixed colors.

And now we wait to see how pretty they will be.
