Sponge Painted Eggs

Liquid Tempera paint
Paper cups (one for each color)
Small pieces of foam or sponge
Clothes pins (one for each color)
Egg cups

Place hard boiled or blown eggs in egg cups. Partially fill paper cups with different colors of paint. Clip a piece of sponge to a clothes pin and dip into paper cups, using the clothes pin as a handle. Lightly dab the sponge over the top half of the egg. Let dry. Turn egg over and repeat procedure. Let the egg dry completely. If using blown eggs, spray with acrylic spray for a permanent finish.
