Secret Messages Detective Birthday Game
by Joanna W.
(Dana Point, CA )
This is a creative and simple way to make something seem like it's disappearing. Before the party squeeze lemons or limes into a bowl. Take a cotton swab and dip it into the juice. Then on pieces of paper write secret messages (make sure that the cotton swab stays wet). The writing will slowly disappear. At the party turn a heating pad to high heat and let it warm up. Cover the heating pad with a blanket (so that the paper doesn’t have direct contact with the heating pad). Place each invisible paper (one at a time) on the heating pad and in a few minutes the message will appear (only ADULTS may do this!). How does the message appear? There’s carbon in Lemon and lime juice that darkens when heated. Remember to turn off the heating pad once you’re done using it.
