I love finding new ways to dye Easter eggs and I thought I’d show you how to make dinosaur eggs!

I started making these edible snacks when my kids were itty bitty, and they loved them so much that they made regular appearances on the dinner table and in lunch boxes.

How to Make Dinosaur Eggs - Jurassic World craft

How To Make Dinosaur Eggs

What You’ll Need: 

Hard-boiled eggs
Mason jars or medium bowls (one for each color)
3 cups cool water (for each color)
Unsweetened Kool-Aid mix envelopes in a variety of colors (choose bright colors for best results)
Clear plastic wrap

how to make dinosaur eggs with KoolAid

How To Make Dinosaur Eggs:

1. Carefully roll or tap the hard-boiled eggs to crack shells all over, but leave the shells on the eggs.

2. In a mason jar or bowl, stir together water and Kool-Aid. Add the cracked eggs to the colored water.

3. Cover the containers with plastic wrap; refrigerate. Leave for 1 to 2 days. Remove eggs and throw away water. (They look pretty cool at this point too.)

4. Peel shells off eggs. Keep refrigerated. They’re edible and kids will love them, especially with the Kool-Aid flavors!

How To Make Dinosaur Eggs

Hint: Red and purple will give the brightest color, and if you love the look of the brown-colored shells, that’s purple (grape) Kool-Aid.

    I would probably have a hard time with the boiling of the eggs. I’ve no patience for this. My girls on the other would enjoy this little project after seeing the new Jurassic World movie this summer.

    This is awesome. It may seem like something simple to you, but you have just given me something that hopefully will help me bond with my stepdaughters. You see, we are leaving where we live now (what I consider home) to move to where my husband is from – a VERY different place. Part of that reason is his military career just ended and we are going to be closer to his kids now. It will be an adjustment for us all and fun things like this will certainly be ice-breakers. So glad I saw this! Thanks again.
