Here's what you'll need:

We did this experiment three ways. One mason jar has just an egg and vinegar. To another we added blue food coloring, and another has the inside of a highlighter in it!

Use a blacklight/UV flashlight to see the highlighter egg glow!

Kids and adults alike will enjoy squeezing and bouncing the naked egg. It’s so cool to see an egg staying together without its shell!
