Magic to Excite Children’s Day: A Collection of Simple Trick Ideas (81–90)
a cup on a paper plate
Hold a paper plate upright, and a cup filled with water appears to be resting on its edge.
The trick is simple: you prop up the cup by bracing it between the plate and your thumb hidden behind the plate.
A good tip is to first show it failing with an empty cup and letting it topple, to set up the effect.
Magic where legs disappear
It’s a magic trick where you cover your feet with a black cloth, give a signal, and when you lift the cloth, the feet that should be there have vanished.
The key point is the angle at which you show the gaps in the cloth, and the mechanism is simple: you’re just moving your feet to a position where they can’t be seen.
You place your weight on the leg pulled back, lift the other leg up, and keep your body position unchanged, so your ability to maintain posture is tested.
Let’s proceed while balancing mystery and ease: figure out how low you can lower your foot to make it look like it has disappeared.
A magic trick where a coin ends up inside a balloon
When you press a coin against an inflated balloon, the coin appears to teleport inside! In reality, the same coin has been preloaded at the balloon’s mouth, held in place with your hand while you inflate it.
You then press the coin you’re holding against the balloon to make it look like it goes inside.
It’s also a nice touch to pop the balloon on the spot and let them check the coin inside.
Magic Newspaper
A mysterious magic trick where you pour liquid into a folded newspaper and it doesn’t spill out! In fact, it doesn’t just not spill—it seems to disappear.
The secret is that you’re holding a paper cup behind the newspaper, pouring the liquid into it, stacking it with an empty cup to retrieve it, and then opening the newspaper to show it’s dry.
It looks like something you can do right away with items you have at home.
Clothes change in an instant
Face forward to show your outfit, spin around once on the spot, and by the time you face front again—your clothes have changed!? The trick is simple: wear two T-shirts under your jacket, but you need to cut a slit in one of them when setting it up.
How about using a shirt you’re thinking of throwing away?
Newspaper tree
Cut a sheet of newspaper into two pieces, stack them, and roll them up tightly.
Once you finish rolling, make some slits; then pinch the separated tips and pull them up, and it will stretch as if a tree is growing—it’s a magic trick.
Since it’s easy to make, it looks like something you could enjoy doing with your child.
In conclusion
If you perform magic on Children’s Day, it’s sure to instantly brighten up the atmosphere! All the tricks introduced in this article are easy to try using everyday items.
