7. Clothespin Secret Message Planes

This is a fun way to send “classified” notes across the room. The clothespin acts as the body of the plane, and the wings hide a secret message that only the receiver can see.

  • Materials Needed:
    • Wooden clothespins
    • Craft sticks (popsicle sticks)
    • Glue
    • Markers
  • Steps:
    • Glue one craft stick to the top of the clothespin and one to the bottom for wings.
    • Write a secret message on a small strip of paper.
    • Fold the paper and “pinch” it inside the mouth of the clothespin.
    • Decorate the plane with racing stripes or a pilot’s name.

Pro Tip: Paint the planes in camouflage colors for a “top secret” military mission vibe.
