Don't want to shell out cash on dye? Aren't really good at hiding?

Blindfold your children before sending them on a hunt around the yard and hide the eggs in plain sight. Seeing as how your children are now deprived of plain sight, this will be a challenging adventure for the whole family. And since the kids can't see the eggs, they won't be disappointed by their plain white color.

Alternate solution: don't actually hide anything. They'll be looking all day.

Better yet, let them start looking, *then* hide the eggs. In places they've already looked.

I won't be hanging tinsel in June, as I celebrate every holiday all year round, so I don't miss any. The Chritmas tree is always up, I have a variety of rotten eggs around the house that I can never find, I sleep in a Halloween costume instead of pajamas and give myself candy when I wake up, and have a feast for Saint Stephen every dinner. My house is illuminated with menorahs and kwanzaa candelabras, and I have Thanksgiving promptly at two everyday. Then Tet and the Chinese New Year.

cute, but will the children never be allowed to remove the blindfolds? /they won't be disappointed by their plain white color/ and then when they do....... were you too lazy to boil them, too? they might throw them at you.
