Cress Egg Heads
       
  How To Make
       
 

  1. Make a hole in the top of each egg and pour out the yolks. Clean shells and allow to dry.

  2. Paint or draw a face onto each shell, then gently press damp cotton wool inside and sprinkle a few cress seeds on top.

  3. Put the shells back in the box and stand in a light place. Keep them damp so they sprout.

  4. Cut a card tube into 4cm widths and cover with bright tissue paper.

  5. Decorate each tube with strips of sticky ribbon, before placing the eggs on top.
