Get other family members to guess what the little kids have drawn before you iron the paper and have the big reveal!Īnother good mystery idea would be to write clues or messages on cards using a UV pen. This activity would be suitable for young children too as they could draw a simple picture with the juice rather than write a message eg a sun, flower or shapes. If you don’t want to use an iron you can put your paper on a baking sheet in a 250☏ oven for about 20 mins. When it’s dry, run a warm iron over the paper to get the messages to appear. Leave the paper somewhere to dry where it will not be disturbed. Get the kids to dip a paintbrush into the juice and write an invisible message on a piece of paper.
