Kids Trick: Write an Invisible Ink Message

Here’s a trick you can do with your kid - to write an invisible ink message. I always wondered how to do it while I watched some detective/treasure hunting movies in good old days. The secret is shared over at wikiHow. I can’t believe that it’s so simple: just mix lemon juice with ink – invisible ink is done.

Get an invisible ink pen. Try a cotton swab, a toothpick, fountain pen, or calligraphy pen. Dip it into the invisible ink.

• Write your message. Draw a map to your secret treasure, write a love letter, or put the combination to your vault on the back of your business card.
• Allow the ink to dry. As the ink dries your message will disappear.

I think you’ve known how to reveal your secret message because it has been shown repeatedly in different movies. (hehe….)
