Instructions
  1. Use a needle or small nail to make a hole about the size of a quarter in one end of an egg, then drain the egg and rinse out the shell.

  2. Carefully draw or paint funny faces on the shells and put them in the egg carton; it's a good idea to use permanent markers so the colors won't bleed when you water the "hair."

  3. Use a spoon to fill the shells with soil, then plant the grass seeds according to the package instructions.

  4. When the eggheads have a thick, green mane, remove them from the carton and place them on a stand of your own design (we used empty film canisters). Style the hair into pigtails, buzz cuts or mohawks and water it every day.
