You can add card stock or cardboard to the back of the eggs for a solid surface. We chose to just leave eggs as they were since Annie decorated her felt eggs at the table. The cardboard would come in handy if your brought the eggs in the car for a travel activity.

DECORATE! Let your kids go to town decorating their felt eggs. The best part, they can create as many designs their little hearts desire.
