This is for pedagogical purposes. Please do not cypher actually important messages with this.

Anyway I think it can bring with little ones, and adults alike, interesting conversations around :

  • secrecy
  • privacy
  • cryptography as counter-power
  • mathematics, starting with modulo
  • the duration a message can stay undecipherable and thus the kind of message to share
  • computational complexity, how many permutations are available

… and a lot more!

Doubt I can do a PR to https://github.com/open-quantum-safe/ with that yet… but that does beg the question, what other schemes could be represented tangibly without complex mechanisms?

It’s water-resistant.

good enough.
