If your child is allergic to eggs, or doesn't like eggs, or just for fun try this. I take a bag of large marshmallows and let the grandkids decorate the marshmallows instead of Easter eggs. One way is to quickly dip the marshmallow into food colored water. Let them sit for a minute they will become sticky. You can roll them in sprinkles, colored cocanut flakes, colored sugar granuales or instead of the dipping process you can just color them with easy writter food decorator pens. They sell different types of these pens in the baking isles of your local supermarkets. The kids can make different pictures, or faces. Writting

their name is also fun.
