Dino Egg Soap!

Having trouble getting your kids to use soap while washing their hands? We've got a solution for you! These dinosaur egg soaps will not only wow your kids, but hopefully encourage them into adopting a good habit. The soap is relatively easy to make and a super fun craft! You simply need to melt some glycerin soap and pour it into a plastic egg container, place the dinosaur into the vessel and....voila! A dinosaur egg that doubles as soap!

Ingredients needed:
  • glycerin soap
  • a pyrex measuring cup
  • tape
  • plastic easter egg vessels
  • mini dinosaur figurines 
  • essential oil (we used coconut)
  • coloured soap dye
  1. Place desired amount of glycerin soap into the pyrex measuring cup and microwave until the glycerin soap is melted (approximately 40 seconds). Once the soap is melted, add 2-3 drops of coloured soap dye.
  2. Meanwhile, tape the holes of the easter egg containers. Then, prepare easter egg vessels by splitting them in half and putting the bottom portion in a cup. Place plastic dinosaur in the centre of the egg and suspend it in the centre with a strip of tape. Pour the melted soap into the bottom vessel and let it sit for an hour.
  3. After the hour is up, pour melted soap into the top portion of the plastic egg. While the soap is still liquid, snap the hardened bottom side onto the top. Let it harden for 2 hours or overnight.

  4. To remove the plastic egg, gently push on all sides of the egg and pull it off.
