Here's what you do:
Fill the jar with the vinegar (enough to cover the egg) and place the hard-boiled egg inside of the jar. Put the lid on the jar and loosely tighten it. Leave the jar in a place where it will not be disturbed; especially away from the little brother's hands. You'll notice that many small bubbles will form on the eggshell as soon as you place the egg in the vinegar. If you watch the egg for a while, you'll see that some of the bubbles will grow larger and rise to the surface of the vinegar. Sometimes, large bubbles will form on the bottom of the egg. The egg will move around because the egg and the vinegar are denser, or heavier, than the bubbles. The egg will float as soon as enough bubbles are attached to it. The bubbles will cause it to move so that it looks like it's alive!The vinegar will completely decompose the shell of the egg in about one or two days. When the shell is gone, take the egg out of the jar and wash it and allow it to dry. It will feel leathery. After it's dry,try to bounce it. It will bounce like a ball!

Why does vinegar make egg dye stronger?
The dye binds to the protein in an egg shell; this is an animal protein, similar to silk or wool. The same types of dyes that work on silk or wool will also dye eggs. The dye molecules bind, both directly and via hydrogen bonds, to protein molecules in the eggshell. The dyes used to dye eggs are acid dyes, called that because they work best in an acid environment. Vinegar is an acid, and adding it to the dye solution makes it more acid, and potentiates both types of binding.

Is it okay to dye a duck egg for Easter?
Of course it's okay to dye a duck egg for Easter. Traditionally, chicken eggs were the eggs of choice for making pysanky, but any egg that was handy could be used: goose, duck, swan. Today pysanka artists use duck, chicken, and goose eggs to create traditional patterns, and quail, turkey, rhea, and ostrich eggshells to make non-traditional ones. Duck eggs have a tougher outer coat to protect them, and often do not accept the dye as readily as chicken eggs. This may result in a more pastel final effect. You can try cleaning the surface of the egg really well with vinegar to see if that helps. Have fun!
