2014-03-13 06:06:59 PM joannem Never heard of that...what does that do?
2014-03-13 06:07:07 PM kathyhughes The eggs turn a lovely brown
2014-03-13 06:07:14 PM kathyhughes and they look great
2014-03-13 06:07:24 PM kathyhughes the ones in the beets turned red
2014-03-13 06:07:25 PM stacels709 That's really cool.
2014-03-13 06:07:40 PM kpachan We also have someone bring in there pet bunnies too, which is always really liked!
2014-03-13 06:07:48 PM kathyhughes We would try a new way each year
2014-03-13 06:07:49 PM pramos My co-worker showed me a new way where when at home we ask staff to gently break the eggs on one end, then we clean them out, let them dry, then fill with confetti, and cover opening with tissue paper. we also dye them
2014-03-13 06:08:09 PM dbrewer thats a good idea
2014-03-13 06:08:13 PM kathyhughes I have seen them
2014-03-13 06:08:34 PM nansullivan I think we'll go with plastic eggs and paint them.
2014-03-13 06:08:35 PM stacels709 I've also had them do the decoupage (sp?) eggs with wooden eggs from Michaels and pretty paper strips.
2014-03-13 06:08:47 PM pramos its pretty cool and last longer
2014-03-13 06:08:48 PM kathyhughes great
2014-03-13 06:08:54 PM dbrewer I like that
2014-03-13 06:09:07 PM kathyhughes there are tons of ideas out there!
2014-03-13 06:09:17 PM nansullivan You can use small balloons the shape of eggs and decopage them.

2014-03-13 06:20:09 PM bdappert unfortunately it doesnt work that way. nursing has to be responsible for sugars and they have to report it to the docs.
