Let’s play with lemon
For the youngest but not only........ How many lemons?
Repeat the tongue twister and every time you’re wrong, eat a lemon slice! No, it isn’t a forfeit, but in any case you’ll have more energy to start again.......
ONE LEMON
One lemon half a lemon
Two lemons half a lemon
Three lemons half a lemon
Four lemons half a lemon
Five lemons half a lemon...
What’s the Invisible Ink?
Invisible ink is a “magic” ink which allows writing invisible messages. Take the juice of a squeezed lemon ( 3 spoons of LIMMI ), pour it in a cup and add a teaspoon of water. Use a small brush or directly dip your finger in the liquid, then write your secret on a sheet of paper. Let it dry and....no sign, information is safe from inquisitive eyes! Lemon’s citric acid, in fact, is a scentless and colourless substance which, if melted in water solution and then heated, oxidizes and darkens. Your writing will appear again only if you pass a candle under the sheet: pay attention not to burn it!
