Charlie Brown Easter Egg

When I was brainstorming all these Easter eggs, the Round-Headed Kid seemed like an obvious choice.  I'm a huge Peanuts fan and have always loved Good ol' Charlie Brown. Speaking of which, can you name another fictional character that has as many nicknames as he does? Peppermint Patty calls him Chuck, Marcie calls him Charles (technically, Charlie is the nickname and Charles is his given name), and Lucy and Violet regularly call him Blockhead. Sally calls him Big Brother. Charlie Brown introduced himself as Brownie Charles to Peggy Jean, which is what she calls him. There are probably others. 

Anyway, this Charlie Brown egg is really quick and easy to decorate. Other than drying time for the paint, it only takes about five minutes to do. This post contains affiliate links. 

Charlie Brown Easter Egg

Materials:

• white egg (raw, hardboiled, or empty)
• Folk Art acrylic paint (Linen, Daffodil Yellow)
• Sharpie (black)

Steps: 

Paint the pointy end of the egg with Daffodil Yellow and the round end of the egg with Linen. When the paint is dry, use a Sharpie to draw Charlie Brown's eyes, nose, mouth, and hair squiggle. Draw a line separating his head from his shirt. Add two triangles for the shirt collar and finish with the iconic zigzag.

I have two more decorated eggs to share. Rather than wait until 2026, I'm going to share them next week, even though Easter will have passed. For all who celebrate, I hope you have a wonderful Easter.
