A magic trick where a coin passes through a mat

This is a magic trick where you place a coin on a handkerchief-sized mat and rub it with your hand until the coin seems to vanish.
The key is to move the coin in a circular motion with your finger as you rub it.
When the coin is at the point closest to the edge of the table, lift your hand slightly away from the coin and lightly press it with the base of your palm.
Continue tracing circles as you move the coin toward the edge of the table.
Then let the coin drop off the table to secretly hide it.
It’s important that your hand movements look natural and that the circular motion is limited to three rotations.
A pen that moves on its own

A magic trick that makes it look like a pen on your palm is moving on its own.
Thread a rubber band through the pen cap in advance, hide the rubber band under your palm, and move your hand slowly.
The key is to keep your fingers together so there are no gaps where the rubber band could be seen.
If there’s something to hook onto, you can use this with items other than a pen, too.
You can move it slowly, or move it quickly for an even bigger surprise.
When performing the magic, it’s also a good idea to borrow a pen from your elementary school friends or teacher.

A magic trick where you guess the card that was drawn.

An actual elementary school girl is trying out a magic trick.
The explanation is a bit hard to follow, but the idea was to flip over just one card in advance and then have the chosen card returned to the original deck.
It’s a basic trick, but I think it’s more than enough to work for elementary school kids.
If you found it interesting, I’d love for you to give it a try.
Card magic you can do by following the steps

It’s a mysterious card trick where the one card you chose pops out from a set of 15 mixed cards.
From the 15 cards spread out, the spectator secretly selects one card so the magician doesn’t know which it is, then returns it to the spread.
Next, the cards are divided into three piles, and the spectator honestly answers whether their chosen card is in each pile as the cards are shown.
Arrange the piles so that the pile containing the chosen card is in the middle, sandwiched by the other two piles.
Repeat the same process two more times.
On the third time, instead of recombining the piles into a single normal stack, place only the pile containing the chosen card so that the cards are slightly staggered up and down.
This makes some cards protrude above and below.
To recombine into one stack, first push back the cards protruding at the top, then push back the ones protruding at the bottom.
Then the selected card alone appears! The finer points remain a mystery, but if you follow the steps as described, it will always work.
Rubber bands switch places magic trick

Rubber band magic is easy to do and has great surprise value, right? With this trick, you can amaze your friends.
Put rubber bands of different colors on your fingers, and in an instant they switch places.
Using colored rubber bands makes the change clearly visible, so it’s recommended.
The secret is actually simple, but with good presentation you can really astonish everyone.
This will definitely be a hit at a school fun event! Practice it and perform it in front of everyone—you’re sure to become popular!
A magic trick where a rubber band moves across fingers

This is a magic trick where a rubber band instantly jumps between your fingers.
All you need is two rubber bands—easy to do anywhere! First, with the back of your hand facing the spectator, place the first rubber band around your index and middle fingers.
Then, take the second rubber band and loop it over your index finger; twist it, and thread it between your middle and ring fingers before hooking it onto your pinky.
Next, as you make a fist, stretch the first rubber band over the tips of all your fingers except the thumb.
Finally, open your hand, and the first rubber band will appear to have moved to a different set of fingers.
It’s a simple trick with a string-figure feel—give it a try!
In conclusion
We introduced lots of magic tricks that are perfect for elementary school and sure to get everyone excited.
They’re simple, but they’ll amaze the whole crowd! Some require a bit of practice, but once you master them, try performing them! If you casually show tricks using stationery and other everyday items, you might even become the star of your class!
