My 11 year old daughter Alexis came home from church yesterday wanting to show me something cool. She got a glass of lemon juice, just enough to write a secret message or the next clue to the mystery. She then got a piece of white paper and with q tip or toothpick wrote her message. The next phase let the juice dry a bought 30 minutes.
The final step in this science project is to reveal the message using a heat source of some kind, put it next to a light, boil some water in a cup and place the paper over the cup to revel the top secret message. This is a really fun and simple science activity you can do with your kids of all ages. Take this kid science experiment to the next level and experiment with different juices. Send me your comments on what you found out. Thanks Moorescience
