Looking for Lemon L

Jocelyn tried to write the Letter L for the first time today.

We explored lemons and limes.

We tasted the lemon and lime juice.

Time to use invisible ink to write our letter Ll's.
Dip a cotton swab into lemon juice. With the juice, write the Letter Ll's on white paper. Let them dry.

I wonder what secret message Jocelyn is writing with her lemon juice.

While we waited for our papers to dry we played with Counting Bears.
We even did some patterning with our Counting Bears.
*****************
Once our papers dried, we put them between brown paper bags and rubbed them with a medium-hot iron. Our invisible messages magically appeared. We waited until Daddy got home to have him reveal our secret messages and letter Ll's. It was pretty cool!

FUN FUN! We did invisible ink this year in science too. We were studying acids! :)

Looks like TONS of fun!
