Magic tricks with balloons: Recommended acts for parties and events (1–10)
Skewer-through-balloon magic that doesn’t pop the balloon
There are two spots on a balloon where it won’t pop, even if you stick a skewer into them.
Still, even knowing that, it’s scary to actually stab a balloon with a skewer! If you can overcome that fear, people who see this magic trick will look at you with admiration.
A smartphone goes inside a balloon.
It’s a striking and entertaining magic trick where, when you press a smartphone against an inflated balloon, it appears to go inside the balloon.
You can use anyone’s smartphone, and it’s easy to practice while still delivering a strong impact.
Balloons that pop and change colors one after another
Just when you think a dark blue balloon has been placed in the bowl, it pops and more and more balloons of different colors appear.
Simply watching the vibrant changes of the balloons makes your heart dance.
If you cover them with a handkerchief, it would be fun to reveal a different balloon each time you lift it.
Magic of eating a balloon!?
It’s the magic trick you often see on TV or from street performers where they appear to swallow a balloon.
This trick comes with an explanation, so please do not actually swallow it as-is! Once you see how it’s done, you’ll want to perform it for someone yourself!
Water comes out of an empty bucket.
Some of you may be looking for a magic trick you can learn quickly.
One I recommend is a trick where water comes out of an empty bucket.
For this trick, you’ll use a small bucket, a water balloon, and a pair of chopsticks with a needle attached to the tip.
First, inflate the water balloon and set it inside the bucket.
Then, while making sure the balloon doesn’t fall out, turn the bucket upside down to show it.
Next, say you’re casting a spell with the chopsticks and pop the balloon with the needle on the tip.
Finally, pour the water out of the bucket to reveal the effect, and you’re done.
A balloon that keeps spinning in the air
If you connect balloons together into a donut shape and blow a hair dryer at them, they’ll keep spinning without falling.
Adults might think, “Well, you’re just blowing air on them,” but for children it feels like a heart-thumping kind of magic, doesn’t it?
I’ll pop the balloon with telekinesis!
It’s a magic trick where you pop a balloon with telekinesis.
The performer’s slightly surprised reaction when the balloon actually pops is pretty funny! And no wonder—it’s impossible to know exactly when it will pop! Why is that? The secret is also revealed, so be sure to check it out.
