There are all kinds of ways to decorate Easter eggs with your kids. Don't be afraid to let your kids do it too. Yes, it can be messy but with a little prep, it will be no stress and tons of fun!
Cover your work space with a towel or newspaper.
Boil your eggs then dry and cool. Cool them faster by running them under cold water.
Let the kid(s) use crayons, markers, stickers, glitter glue, feathers, google eyes, etc. to decorate them.
Help them dye the eggs first, if desired. Hey! I have a 2 year old and I let him do it. Sure we got our hands dirty but it washes right off.
TIP: For brighter colored eggs, put 3 T white vinegar in with your dye & hot water.

Refrigerate within 30 minutes. Hard boiled eggs shouldn't be at room temp but up to 2 hours, if you plan on eating them.
