Tie-dye cake with kids

I was a little intimidated when my 4 year old picked out the Tie-Dye cake mix at the grocery store, but it turned out to be a pretty fun (messy) experience with the kids! 

I let them crack the eggs, mix, pour in the water, mix some more and help separate the mixture into 6 separate bowls. (We used Apple sauce instead of oil) Then we took the 3 primary color packets that come with the box and counted out each drop. 6 different colors were made. (Blue, yellow, red, orange, purple and green) the kids took turns choosing colors and emptying them into a pan. It only took about 30 minutes to bake. It came out looking nothing like the picture on the box, but it was yummy and the kids had an absolute blast making it.
