Reverse Writing
Challenge your older child, with a pencil and paper! Can they write a sentence backwards, without looking in the mirror. Sounds easy enough for the letters O, A, and M, but what about J, F, and R ? Can they write you a secret message?

Have your child observe you for a minute. Leave the room. Return to the room, having changed a small detail in your appearance. Remove an earring, put on some lipstick or change your hair. Can they guess what has changed?
