Dinosaur or Ostrich Egg?

Another project that didn't turn out the way I had planned but still worked. 

I had plans to have a sandbox filled with sand to bury these giant easter eggs. I did spray paint them a neutral color to make them look more like a real egg.  
I couldn't source a sandbox down here in Carmel and there was no room in my car to bring one from Cupertino. So it was put on the back burner and stored in the closet. It was decided that the Gnomes would use the eggs to find their surprise when we had a guest whose parents didn't want her to have candy in the morning. Inside was a large zoo animal. The eggs didn't really stay together very well so it was difficult for the boys to carry around. Was sort of a success. I think the sandbox idea would have been a messy hit. :)
