Is there any way to involve babies in dyeing Easter eggs, other than looking at the pretty colors?

Infants are not yet able to create their own designs on Easter eggs,
but you can still help your baby make a keepsake decorative egg. Blow
out the insides of a raw egg and rinse the shell in warm, soapy water.
Dye the egg shell a light color, such as pink or blue. Dip the infant's
hand or foot in a darker color of paint and stamp it on the egg.
Shaker Eggs
Infant toys often make noise when you shake them, so make
your own toys out of plastic Easter eggs that contain noisy items. If
the items inside the eggs are small enough to be choking hazards, tape
the eggs shut and only allow the infant to play with them while being
closely supervised. Ideas for items to put inside eggs include marbles,
bells, jacks, beans, bouncy balls and dry pasta pieces.
Re: Easter eggs
Dye the baby.
My mom did this to her little brother when they were small. Kid was green for a week.
Such a good idea!
Here's my actual answer!
I found a couple of articles on fun things to do with babies for Easter.

This is a super cute idea!
