Re: Stegno for Kids
and Crayola brand secret writing pens (WOW!!!!). There are about 8 pens in the set. You write secretly with two of them and develop the image with the other six.
I had something like that as a toy about 20 years ago. A single pen with tips on both sides. One to write, the other to develop. Didn't they have it in America also? Hadmut

There was also this thing where you would get these books and a magic marker, and they you would do puzzles in the book, and use the pen to develope the answer. The old Infocom hint books also used a similiar setup. ____ Robert A.

I remember those. The hints would range in order of how desperate the player was. That was almost as much fun as the game... David Elkins
Lemon juice makes a good invisible ink for kids. Write the message; heat the paper to reveal it. I used a match, but I suspect a hairdryer would be much more sensible. b&
