CP Arts and crafts-Colored eggs

Hi Polar here
Remember ask a parent or guardian before doing this.
You will need
. Eggs
. 2 push pins
. a long sewing needle
. colored napkins or tissue paper
. A bowl
. Ribbon
. Paintbrush
. Optional: colored markers

Paper machè mix
. 1 cup of all purpose flour
. 2 cups of water

Instructions
1. gently wash your hands
2. At the top of your egg, use a push pin to carefully puncture the shell
3.Make a second hole in the other end of your egg. Try to make the hole a little bigger.
4.Keep the push pin at the bottom of your egg
5. Use your sewing needle to break up the yolk inside the egg.
6. Hold your egg above a bowl and gently blow into a smaller hole. The yolk should come out easily.
7.if there is some yolk still in the egg, use your needle to break it up even more ( don't throw the yolk away is you want an omelet ) 
8.Once the yolk is out, hold the egg under warm running water, letting water enter the egg. When you think it's clean, blow the excess water out.
9.Cut or tear your napkins or tissue paper into smaller pieces.
10. Use your paintbrush to gently apply the paper machè mix to the egg.
11. Place your napkin or tissue paper on the egg and apply more paper machè over top. (You may want to do a few layers )
12. Once dry, take your ribbon and thread it through , then push the needle through the holes of the egg.
13. Tie a knot at the bottom of the ribbon.
14. Now your ready to hang up your egg
15. Instead of paper machè you could also use markes and draw pictures or patterns on your eggok Polar out
