How to Use The Kit
In order to complete the I Solved A Mystery Patch Program, Series 1, you will need to use the "I Solved the Mystery!" kit. The items in this kit can be copied for the participants.
Make copies of the detective notebook for all the participants so they can take notes and place their items all in one place. For extra they can place a photo inside or their thumbprint. Make sure everyone has their name on their notebook.

For extra fun, fingerprint the participants twice, make sure you label or code them on the back. Keep one copy for your case file and place the other copies on a “accomplice to the crime” table. You do not have to use all the fingerprints if you are doing this in a large group. Take one of the fingerprints from the case file and enter it into evidence. The players need to use the evidence print to match against the other finger prints. After they use magnifying glasses and compare the prints, that person within the group was the accomplice to the crime and assisted the real suspect. You can do this with shoe prints as well. This is not be recommended for younger participants. You may also wish to have participants read the parts and dress up for the parts.

When the participants solve their first mystery then they earn the patch and the bar of the mystery they solved. After they solve mysteries thereafter, they earn the bar and can cascade them around the patch or as a row below the patch. To learn more about the Washington DC area complete the DC program and kit.
