[For Elementary School Students] Simple and Amazing! A Collection of Magic Tricks You Can Do with a Handkerchief (21–30)
A handkerchief that teleports
A teleportation magic trick where a handkerchief that should have been there vanishes in an instant and reappears connected to another handkerchief.
What you need: four handkerchiefs in two colors (four and two), and a small opaque bag.
Prepare a set of three handkerchiefs sewn together in advance and place it in the bag.
Also put the remaining loose handkerchiefs and a fake hollow thumb tip into the bag, and when you start the trick, take out only the loose handkerchiefs.
Then, as you put the handkerchiefs back into the bag, actually stuff them all into the thumb tip inside the bag, and slip that thumb tip onto your own thumb.
That way, only the three connected handkerchiefs remain in the bag—that’s the secret.
As long as you prepare and follow the steps correctly, even elementary school kids can do it easily!
Bending Handkerchief
A simple yet mysterious magic trick where a handkerchief bends as if it has a will of its own.
Roll the handkerchief into a long strip, hold it in one hand, and give a cue like “Bend!” or make a pulling motion in the air with your other hand—somehow it smoothly bends.
The method is simple: just move the thumb of the hand that’s holding the handkerchief behind it where it can’t be seen.
Be careful to keep your thumb hidden from the audience.
Adding a little performance, like casting a spell before you move it, will make it even more exciting!
In conclusion
I think they were all things you could do right away as long as you have a handkerchief! Try showing them off during little moments like break time and be a hero! It’s also fun to swap the other props for everyday items and add your own twist!
