Chalkboard Eggs


Try these yourself...make chalk-board easter eggs for your kids to decorate...and they can re-decorate them time after time and year after year!

Materials

  1. Hollow plastic eggs. 
  2. Sandpaper
  3. Chalkboard paint - I used jet black chalkboard paint, but it comes in lots of different colours.
  4. Paint brush
  5. Chalk or liquid chalk pens. ​

Instructions

1. Lightly sand your plastic eggs to make them smooth, remove any lines and so that the paint will adhere to the plastic better.

2. Paint each egg with 2 to 3 coats of pain, allowing to dry between coats (we dried ours on kebab sticks).

3. Have fun decorating them. Old fashioned chalk works well, as do liquid-chalk pens (which I used). You can rub or wash off the chalk to start again. We did find it helpful to leave the eggs on the kebab sticks so that we could make less fingerprints on the eggs.

ENJOY!


These are great for Easter too!
