Magic Tricks - Children's involving

Children's arresting is one area of magic available to us all - either you are a parent performing to your child at a birthday party, or a professional magician hoping to progress your repertoire, children's arresting is a rewarding and enjoyable subject of magic.

Kid's magic is very different from close-up magic or sleight of hand - it is nearer to stage magic, with optic illusions to keep your audience attentive.

When planning your children's magic shows, it is requisite to bear in mind that children have a relatively small attention span, so you need to keep them on their toes by using optic props (such as magic wands, colourful tricks etc.), funny jokes and a lot of audience participation. The magic illusions should be varied, arresting and most importantly, arresting for the children.

The tricks you pick for the magic show are very leading - you should pick tricks for children that are favorable for their age and sex. A patter about football wouldn't go down too well at an all-girls birthday party!

Before you achieve a show, watch a small children's television and see how the presenters act. They smile, laugh and appear to be enjoying themselves - a very leading part of being successful! Try to also remember some of the characters names - you can (temporarily) rename your pet rabbit to a 'Teletubby', for example.

To be (almost) as thriving as preeminent magicians, you need to enjoy performing magic, the kids will know you are enjoying it, and your obvious feelings will help to make them enjoy your magic show - there's nothing worse than watching magic performed by a bored magician!

Improve your chances of repeat performances by rewarding the children with merchandise. A skilfully crafted balloon model is great, but once it pops, you're forgotten. If you can afford some promotional material with your touch details to give to the children along with the balloon, then the parents will have a way of calling you for their child's next party.

To sum up, try to originate a fast-paced, varied and arresting magic show to keep the children entertained. reward participation with merchandise, and word of mouth will be your main source of income.
