Program Description
Event Details
Join us at the Mokena Library for this fun Lemon Invisible Ink Experiment. Learn how to write hidden codes and secret messages to your friends using simple supplies you can find at home. We will provide all of the materials.
You will use lemon juice and a q-tip to write secret messages on a blank piece of white paper. We will then help you heat up your paper with a blow dryer to expose the secret message! With a little heat, the message you wrote will turn brown for people to read. You can also hold up your secret message to a lightbulb or candle, with a parent's supervision to see the message as well. You can also do this at home by putting the paper into an oven.
We'll take it a step further and have some together as we play CIA Spy Games with each other!
