Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Eggs
• white-out/paper white
• orange egg dye packets
• thin black magic marker

1. To hard boil eggs, fill a pot with enough cold water to cover. Bring to a rolling boil, then turn Heat down to Medium High. Cook for 8-10 minutes.

2. Promptly pace eggs in iced water for 5 minutes. This will ensure the yolks will stay yellow and no green line appears around them. Remove and let sit on a flat surface to warm.

3. Prepare orange dye. Boil water and add to egg dye packet. Immerse eggs completely for 5-10 minutes. The longer they stay, the darker the color.

4. Pat egg dry with a paper towel. Hold the egg horizontally with the tip facing you. With the paper white, draw 2 circles above the tip for eyes.

5. Take black marker and draw a gill (half 'C" backward) about 2 finger widths back from your eyes. Behind that draw a 3-pronged 'fin'. Repeat on other side.

6. Add pupils to your eyes once the paper white is dry. Below the eyes, use the marker again to draw a mouth.

7. Take paper white to draw 3 stripes on the side of the egg-fish. Draw one complete line behind the fin and the other two above and below the gill and fin. Repeat on other side.
