American eggs because of their washing process need to be kept refrigerated (not like European eggs which maintain their protective coating and can be kept out). I would not want to risk getting sick eating an egg that has been put through a hot water dye and left out to dry and then refrigerated again, especially during a pandemic.

You hard boil the eggs. Not clear what you’re struggling with so much.
OMG it's not that hard! She doesn't want a bunch of boiled eggs! She wants her kids to be able to color the eggs and then use the eggs in whatever way she wants-to fry, to scramble, to bake with, whatever!
Thank you for asking this OP, I'm with you. We eat/use a ton of eggs and my kids love the coloring process but I don't want too too many boiled eggs. Please let me now how it goes. My kids are 5 and 7 so younger than yours.
Yes, it works fine. I just posted previously and my kids are 4 and 6 and I just warned them in advance to be careful and they were.
