Surely, many are amazed by the incredible performances of famous illusionists who are able to make certain objects disappear, balls or other elements fly in the air, or objects appear out of nowhere. This is not an easy job with the illusion of people perceiving the movement of objects.

We all dream of learning tricks with cards, coins, matches, cigarettes and other elements. If there is too little magic in your life, then after reading the material below you will be able to create the most extraordinary miracles on your own, surprising and delighting your loved ones.

How to learn easy tricks?

If you dream of learning how to perform magic tricks, then the most important thing is to understand the fact that this is not just an ordinary skill or sleight of hand. Showing tricks, even the easiest ones, is a real art. Each individual trick implies two sides: the obvious one, which the audience sees, and the secret one, which can only be guessed at. When you finally learn to show tricks in such a way that the secret side is not visible, while convincing even the most skeptical viewer that you are doing real magic, only then will you be able to comprehend this art.

Collection for children: Your first tricks (from "Fankits").
Excellent manual describing the secrets of the trick and props are even included.

You need to start gradually and with the simplest things. You can read a couple of books where everything is explained as clearly as possible. You need to spend a certain amount of time training one trick. It is advisable to carry out the training in front of a mirror and bring it to such a point that the focus is achieved on its own, without thinking about each individual step. Try to add artistry, because you are the creator of real magic.

Tricks for children

Now I will share with you a few simple tricks, which any child will be delighted with. In addition, you yourself can teach him these tricks. It is worth noting that learning magic tricks will not only bring a lot of pleasure to the child, but will also provide positive influence on his logical and creative thinking.

Clock trick

The magician removes the watch from one of his guests and then places it in an opaque bag. The music turns on, the young magician begins to cast a spell, after which he picks up a hammer and hits that same bag. After this procedure, he pours out the watch parts directly from the bag. The spectator is in a panic because his watch has just been broken, but the little magician calms him down. Next, all the parts are put back into the bag, the magician makes several magical movements and takes out a whole watch from there. The secret of the trick is to put spare parts from other watches in the bag in advance. Your child will definitely like this trick due to its simplicity.

Balloon

Everyone knows that if you puncture a balloon, it will definitely burst. The little magician will take a knitting needle in his hands and begin to pierce balloon, but to the surprise of all the guests it will not burst. The secret is that the ball will first be sealed on both sides with a piece of tape, which, in turn, will not be visible to the viewer.

Chicken egg trick

You can put it without a napkin - right on the salt on the table. Then you need to carefully blow off the excess grains of salt.

The young magician puts the napkin on the table. Next, take the egg and place it on the napkin directly with the narrow side. The egg does not fall, and the magician receives well-deserved applause. The secret is to pour a small layer of salt under the napkin. The egg will not fall, as it is stuck in the salt.

Coin tricks

Now let's try to look at tricks with coins. It is worth noting that training will require some patience from the performer. And perform the tricks themselves until they become automatic. So, let's look at a trick called "Unusual Coin".

To perform the trick we will need the following: a coin, an assistant, a handkerchief measuring 30x30cm.

The secret of the coin trick

The coin is placed on the table and covered with a scarf. You can invite any guest to come up and make sure that the coin is really there. After this, you take the handkerchief and move it from hand to hand, showing everyone that the coin has miraculously disappeared. Tell everyone that the coin is now in someone's pocket. Approach the spectator and take a coin from his pocket.

The secret of the trick is very simple: you definitely need a partner who should be among the spectators. When everyone comes up to make sure that the coin is under the scarf, he is the last one to come up to take it.

Tricks with matches

Now I will tell you about a trick called “Magic wand and matches”.

For the trick we will need the following elements: a plate of water, a small stick, matches, a lump of sugar and soap.

The secret of the match trick

Fill the plate about three-quarters full with water. Next, take matches, break them into small pieces and place them directly into the water. Next, we take the magic wand, touch one end of it to the water and, voila, the matches have approached it. We touch the other side of the stick to the water - the matches spread to the sides.

The secret of the trick is to grease one end of the stick with soap and attach a piece of sugar to the opposite end. Matches will be attracted to soap, but will float away from sugar.

Cigarette tricks

Now I will tell you how you can put out a cigarette on your finger. To do this painlessly, you need to learn the true secrets of the Indian gods, while running over hot coals, and also swallowing long swords. Jokes aside. Unbeknownst to everyone, we place an ice cube between our fingers until the pad of the thumb goes numb. Now we quickly put out the cigarette in front of all the surprised spectators. I would like to note that you will not feel pain, because a burning cigarette will only have time to heat your finger without causing any harm to it.

Card tricks and their secrets

Now I will tell you about one interesting trick with cards. So, “Search for the Mysterious Map.” We take a deck of cards. Next, we ask one of the spectators to choose any card, remember it and put it on top. After that, he moves the deck. The magician lays out all the cards on the table and shows which one was chosen.

How to learn this famous trick, you ask? It's simple. Immediately before the trick, remember the bottom card. As a result, the card that the viewer chose will be in front of the one that you remembered.

Finally, I would like to point out three important rules which every magician must know: under no circumstances tell the secret of the trick; each individual trick is very carefully rehearsed so that it is performed automatically; you never need to say what will happen next. All these rules are the real code of every professional magician. Only by strictly observing them can you achieve the desired effect, remaining a true magician for the viewer.

You have probably been amazed more than once by the performances of famous illusionists who make monuments disappear, objects fly, and objects appear out of nowhere. Perhaps you have left childhood impression about a magician with a rabbit in an empty top hat. And, of course, everyone who has seen all of the above would probably like to learn how to do at least small miracle! Especially for such people, I wrote this article, in which I will reveal to the readers of MirSovetov several secrets of popular and at the same time simple tricks, some of them are performed through sleight of hand, and some with the help of simple props.

Rules of a real magician

Before you begin studying the material below, be sure to read these rules, they will greatly help you in your presentations.
  1. Never reveal the secret of a trick. Perhaps the most important rule, since the viewer will immediately lose interest in you as a magician. The viewer can give his guesses, assumptions, or say specifically what the secret is, but you should not enter into an argument with the viewer, but show that this is just his opinion.
  2. Rehearse each trick carefully until it works ten out of ten times. A mirror will also be a very good helper for you; try showing yourself several times, think over the words, speech and gestures with which you will present the entire action.
  3. Never say what will happen next. The viewer can guess where to look and what to follow. And for the same reason, never repeat the same trick twice, even if you are very much asked.
These rules are the code of any professional magician. In particular, due to the first price, professional props cost a significant amount of money, since the secret (intellectual property) provides greater value. Only by following all three rules will you achieve the desired effect and remain a real magician for the viewer.
Most card tricks have two parts: the spectator chooses a card, and then the magician performs some kind of magic on his card.
To begin, let the spectator take any card in the deck, remember it, and show it to other spectators, if there are any. The spectator then returns the card to the deck. The easiest way to find the spectator's card is the key card (the card that lies next to the one the spectator has chosen). I use simple trick to find out the key card: I remove the deck, ask the spectator to put the card down and cover the card with a pile with the card I saw.

The deck can be slightly shuffled demonstratively and the spectator can be asked to, say, remove the deck (when removing the deck this method works 100%). Then we turn the deck facing us, with the back facing the audience, and find that the spectator has made a wish for the four of spades.

The following steps will serve to turn a random card into a spectator card. In the professional language of magicians, this technique is called shift (glide). Place the spectator's card second from the bottom.

We show the spectator the bottom card. The spectator says that we were mistaken, this is not his card.

Then we turn the deck face down and pretend that we are taking out exactly this card (view from the viewer).
We actually perform a secret move and draw the second card from the bottom. To do this, use your fingers to slightly move the bottom card back.

Next, holding the spectator’s card (he thinks that it is not his card), we wave it slightly in the air and turn it over, the spectator sees that the other card has turned into the one he chose.

The effect of the trick can be significantly enhanced, for example, before the final show, rub the card on the spectator’s clothes (say: “You have a magic jacket,” etc.). You can also put the card on the table, cover it with some object (deck, glass, wallet) and make a couple of magical passes, or even better, ask the viewer to cover the card with his hand, then the delight from the trick will increase significantly.

A card appears out of nowhere

This trick will require much more training than the previous one; it can be used as an independent trick or as an element for the appearance of the spectator's card. The effect is quite bright, the magician first shows an empty one, then a card appears on it out of nowhere.



The corners of the narrow rib cards are sandwiched between the index and middle fingers, the ring and little fingers.

Hold the card in this way and straighten your palm completely, making sure that the corners of the cards are not noticeable at first glance. So, let's start appearing, learn to do the whole movement SLOWLY first. First of all, bend all four fingers, as shown in the figure above. Happened? Great! Now press the card with your thumb from above.

And straighten four fingers, holding the card itself with your thumb. Voila! And the card appeared in your palm.

“How difficult it is,” you will think, but after a week of short training you will begin to succeed. You can practice this movement even while watching TV.
For this movement, there is also the opposite: we hold the card on the phalanges of 4 fingers, pressing it on top with the thumb, bend the fingers so that they are under the card, spread the little finger and index finger (as the “new Russians” do), press the corners and straighten the fingers. The card will be on the back of your hand and ready to appear.
To practice both movements, a video will help you (it is better to shoot at least with a digital camera).
Many professional magicians use a combination of appearance and disappearance. In particular, the card can be pulled out not only from the air, but, say, from behind the viewer’s ear.

Passing a rubber band through a finger

This is a very simple trick, but also based on sleight of hand. All preparation must be done quickly, but can be done without problems in front of the viewer.
Initial position: stretch the elastic band over thumb left hand and the thumb and index finger of the right hand.

With the bent middle finger of the left hand, we reach the top of the elastic band and pull it down.

Next, we place the thumb of the left hand under the elastic band between the index and thumb of the right hand.

And we delay right hand up.

At the same time, you will feel a loop tightening the middle finger of your left hand. This is the secret of this trick. Practice shows that if you practice, you can pull out your middle finger, eliminating the viewer’s doubt that you are holding something (see picture above). In this case, the loop itself will not unravel due to the tension of the elastic band and will look like this (bottom view):

Next, slightly relax the rubber band (you can imitate the movement as if you were sawing your finger with a rubber band). And the rubber band goes through it.

The effect of the trick can be enhanced by asking the spectator to hold your thumb after you make the secret loop. You can also ask the viewer to also wrap the second elastic band around his finger, and the viewer, without thinking twice and seeing the final position, will simply make a loop around his finger. Of course, the rubber band will not fit through the viewer’s finger.

Transformation of a banknote

Nothing touches the viewer's heart like money tricks. The most popular trick. This is the transformation of a banknote of one denomination into a bill of another denomination. For the trick we need two expensive banknotes(I use toy money).

Fold both bills 8 times (I showed the fold lines with handles). I draw the attention of MirSovetov readers to the fact that first you need to fold it twice along the length of the bill, and then along the width.

Then we glue the bills along the square from the fold, as shown in the photo:

When folded, the structure looks like this:

Let's start the demonstration (don't forget about the second rule of the magician). We show the viewer an ordinary banknote.

Please note that I covered the part where the second bill is hidden, since otherwise its shadow would be visible.
Let's add it up:

The last gesture is to cover the entire bill with your left hand, while turning the bill over with your right hand. This is followed by the unfolding and demonstration of the second bill.





You can use a humorous version of this trick. Let the props, say, of 50 and 10 ruble bills be in your left pocket, and 10 rubles in your right pocket. “Can any of the spectators lend me 50 rubles?” you ask the audience. Someone lends you their 50 rubles, and you defiantly put them in your left pocket. The reaction of the audience is 99% laughter. Then, after laughing it off, you take out the requisite 50 rubles and turn them into 10. You can also demonstratively put the 10 rubles in your right pocket, saying that you have problems with money, and when the viewer asks for the bills back, take them out and give him the usual 10 rubles. Of course, at the end you have to return 50 rubles.
I hope you liked my article and found it useful. You may not become a famous illusionist, but you can always make a small decoration for any corporate or home party, as well as impress your friends and family.

Unusual tricks have always attracted people's attention and made them dream of mastering it. difficult art. However, many people are left on the path to their dreams by the involuntary reverence that every person experiences before professional illusionists. Indeed, repeating many tricks without props, talent and for long years training is practically impossible. However, there are many simple tricks that a beginning illusionist can easily master.

Magic beads

Everyone knows that if you cut the thread on which the beads are strung, the glass balls will crumble. Is it so? The magician asks one of the spectators to lend him beads. Shows the decoration to everyone, holding it by the lock. After which he cuts the thread with scissors, and the beads are poured into a glass. It would seem that the decoration is damaged beyond repair, and the guest is upset.

However, the focus is not yet complete. The illusionist rolls up a little bag from a sheet of paper, pours the contents of the glass into it and throws a thread after it. A wave of the hand - and completely intact beads appear from the paper bundle, even the cut lock is back in place! Meanwhile, the magician straightens the paper bag, and everyone sees a sheet of ordinary blank paper.

This trick invariably causes delight and amazement of the audience and, at the same time, its secret is very simple. For it you will need the simplest beads with a lock and a trained assistant. Take a thin thread or fishing line and thread it through each bead, next to the main thread. Tie a large knot at both ends. You will find in your hands a necklace that looks ordinary, but it now consists of two threads, one of which can be cut without danger.

To perform the trick, you will need to take the beads by the upper knot of the fake thread, holding them low above the glass, carefully cut off the lower knot.

Any beads still held by the main thread will instantly slide into the bowl. You will still have a fake thread in your hands, and the sound of beads on glass will serve as additional confirmation of the death of the necklace.

After this, all you have to do is roll up a triangular bag out of paper and, after pouring beads and thread into it, pull out the undamaged beads back. It is important!

A fake thread dropped into a bag can give you away, so you need to learn how to quietly hide it in your hand, only pretending to push it into a paper parcel.

How to remove a shirt through a jacket

The spectacular trick, during which the magician takes off the shirt of a spectator invited to the stage without even touching the jacket he is wearing over it, has long become a classic of the genre. However, its secret is very simple, and you can easily do it at home. You can't do this trick without the help of an assistant.

The person who will be randomly selected among the guests must dress in a special way in advance: throw the shirt over his shoulders without putting his arms through the sleeves, and button the collar and cuffs. Once a jacket or any other long-sleeved clothing is put on top, it will be impossible to guess what your assistant’s unique “wardrobe” will be. During the performance, all you have to do is unbutton the buttons and pull the sleeve to remove the shirt.

Turning a scarf into an egg A great trick for a holiday with friends is turning a silk scarf into an egg. The magician shows everyone the handkerchief and, shaking it, pushes it into clenched fist . Then he waves his hand, pronounces a spell and unclenches his hand. To the amazement of the audience, the handkerchief is no longer in his hand. Instead, the usual one lies in the palm of your hand. egg

Transforming a scarf, like any tricks for beginners, can be easily repeated at home. To do this you will need:

  • 1 egg;
  • a sharp knife with a thin tip;
  • a bright scarf made of thin fabric;
  • sandpaper or nail file.

First, you need to prepare the props, the role of which will be played by the egg. Make a small round hole in it and drain the yolk and white through it. Dry the shell and carefully sand the edges of the hole with sandpaper. It is in this egg that the scarf will be hidden during the trick, and it is important that the shell does not break prematurely, catching on the fabric. The shell can first be kept in a saline solution for several hours to make it more durable.

When everything is ready, you can start the trick. Hide the egg in your fist so that it is not visible to the audience and, showing everyone the handkerchief, carefully push it through the hole into the shell. So, sim-salabim! The handkerchief in your hand turned into a chicken egg.

After this, all you have to do is roll up a triangular bag out of paper and, after pouring beads and thread into it, pull out the undamaged beads back. Externally, the egg looks whole, but a hole in the side will instantly reveal your secret. Therefore, you need to hold the egg so that your thumb constantly covers it.

You can watch this trick in this video:


You can order this egg

Scarf through the neck

Ask your friends what happens if you wrap a scarf around your neck and pull the ends sharply. “Nothing healthy,” you will hear. However, nothing is impossible for a magician, and you can demonstrate to your audience how an ordinary scarf, cinched around your neck, passes harmlessly through your body and remains in your hands.

The key to this trick lies in the special way of tying the scarf. Throw the fabric over your shoulders so that it runs along the back of your neck and hangs down on both sides of your chest. Grasp the opposite end of the scarf with each hand: the right one for the left one, and vice versa. Now it all depends on how quickly you can complete the “tying”. Bring the right end behind your neck to the left, leaving a small loop. With your other hand, at the same moment, throw the second part of the scarf, also covering the neck on the left, so that the fabric presses down and hides the loop that was created before.

Now your neck is wrapped in a scarf, which only appears to be pulled tight. A slight pull is enough, and the fabric, having slipped, will remain in your hands without causing any harm.

Of course, knowing the secret is not enough to successfully perform a trick. Remember that the more mysterious and unusual you behave, the more willing the audience will be to believe in your supernatural abilities.

Anyone who wants to feel like a wizard for a few minutes can learn simple tricks and tricks for beginners. Video training for several of them can be seen in this video:

Being a magician, mastering the art of magic, demonstrating miracles to others - everyone has dreamed of this at least once in their life. And not only because such art can make us stand out from the crowd, make us popular, or add zest to a boring party. But also because in the hands of a magician lies special power - the ability to bewitch people. How to learn to do magic tricks? You just need to train your hands and show a little artistry!

How to learn to do simple tricks?

Learn to do simple tricks as a rule, everyone can, even Small child. To do this, you just need to find out the secret of a particular trick, rehearse it thoroughly and boldly present it to the viewer. Professional illusionists They usually use complex props, which are custom-made for them in advance. For simple tricks, whatever is always at hand is suitable: coins, handkerchiefs, matches or pins.

By the way, the trick that will be discussed below is exactly what is called “ Match and pin" The essence of the trick is this. People around are shown a pin, on the sharp part of which a match is strung perpendicularly. Then the magician pretends to try to spin the match around the pin, but it naturally rests on the opposite side of the pin and cannot pass. Spectators are convinced that there are no cuts on the match, and it is impossible to turn it around. At this moment, the magician makes a lightning-fast movement and spins the match through the pin.

The secret of this trick is incredibly simple. When you pierce the match with a pin, give it a good twist back and forth so that the hole opens and the match turns freely. Subsequently, when demonstrating the trick, you will only need to twist the match with a sharp movement. It, of course, will not pass through the pin, but it will spin in reverse side. From the outside it will be completely unnoticeable - the effect will be as if the match had passed through a pin.

Fun fact:

The famous illusionist Georg Nagel once performed his program in Paris. His repertoire included a trick that created the illusion of piercing a finger with a nail. The trick of this trick is to captivate the viewer so much in art that no one notices the substitution. During the performance, the audience surrounded the illusionist in a very dense ring - Nagel did not dare to demonstrate the trick. And the audience certainly wanted this particular trick. As a result, the magician actually pierced his finger with a nail - smiling at the same time, despite the pain, and pretending that it was an illusion. These are the sacrifices a person is willing to make if he is dedicated to his work!

There are also many simple but interesting tricks with playing cards and coins. We will tell you more about them.

An eternal, timeless classic is the card guessing trick. The viewer is invited to choose any card he likes. Next, it is placed in the middle of the deck, and the deck is shuffled. The magician's task is to find the hidden card. This is quite easy to do. You just need to remember the adjacent card - then the one that comes after it will be the one you need.

Another interesting trick- to transform the card. There is nothing complicated in it, but good training to develop finger dexterity is required. So, you take the deck, show the audience the bottom card. Then turn the deck face down and throw the bottom card onto the table. A card of a different suit and a different value appears on the table.

The answer to this transformation is that the penultimate card is thrown out of the deck, and not the one at the very bottom. To do this, you need to quietly insert your index finger under two cards. The one that the viewer saw is held with the thumb. Little finger, ring finger and middle fingers you need to let go so that the card easily flies out of the deck. The last movement using index finger you need to quickly and quietly draw another card from the deck.

How to learn to do tricks with coins?

First, let's try to learn the trick with one coin. Place it in your palm, and with your other hand make a movement as if you took a coin and it is already in the other palm. The main thing here is to depict the moment of capture as naturalistically as possible. To do this, bend your fingers slightly so that the viewer does not see that the coin is still in the same hand. The imaginary grip should be done easily and naturally, just touching the palm with your fingers without pronounced pinching or grasping movements. So, you took the coin in your other hand, open it and show it to the viewer, and it’s empty - the coin has disappeared. Now you can effectively get it from any other place you like, for example, from behind a friend’s ear or from behind your shoulder. If you get good at it, you will see how delighted the trick is for those around you, because the effect is created as if a coin appears straight out of thin air.

Well, of course, having mastered this trick, you can easily handle several coins. The three-coin trick, like the others, looks like real magic to everyone, although in fact it is completely simple. The audience is shown one coin held between two fingers, it is shown from different angles so that everyone can be sure that there is only one coin. Then the magician throws a coin on the table - and there are three coins on the table.

As in the previous trick, in this trick you need to take all three coins correctly and not “light up” later during the demonstration. Two of them are clamped between the index and thumb - parallel, and one - perpendicular. The outermost coin, perpendicular to the fingers, covers the other two, which are completely invisible due to the thumb and index fingers. They can only be seen from one angle, which should be carefully avoided when demonstrating. Thus, only the last coin is visible to the spectators, and all three are thrown onto the table. Now you see how easy it is to learn coin tricks!

A brilliant performance of a number is possible only after long workouts and rehearsals. If you show the audience a “raw” trick, there is a 90% chance that you will be immediately figured out. In addition, you should never reveal the secret of the trick or tell what will happen next - do not succumb to the provocation of the audience, even if they really ask. Otherwise, interest in your presentation will inevitably be lost.

Follow these simple rules and don't forget that the main thing for any illusionist is artistry. Play with the audience, come up with special special effects like magical gestures or magic spells, and believe a little in your own miracle. Then every viewer will definitely believe you.

I want to make the birthday of my beloved son or daughter a memorable and bright holiday. The spoiled kids are pretty tired of clowns and fireworks. We need to come up with something new. Simple tricks for children, learned by parents and the birthday boy, will surprise even the most fastidious guests and create an intriguing atmosphere.

From this article you will learn

"Glued Spoon"

Even a junior schoolchild can perform this primitive trick. Prepare a glass of compote or very sweet tea. Stir the drink with a spoon and quickly attach it to your nose with the concave side. Because of the sweet syrup, it will hang for a long time without falling. If the clown adds a couple of acting jokes, the performance will be as fun as possible.

"The pencil is moving"

Kindergarteners and younger schoolchildren can play Master of the Pipe. It is important to learn how to make movements unnoticeable, then the trick will delight children and adults.

Technique: hold a tube or a simple pencil in your fist. Turn one hand towards the guests, with the other hand make movements in different sides. The tube will rise.

The secret of execution: the thumb of the hand in which the object is clamped rests on the tip of the tube. He presses the tube and makes it move up.

"Runaway Orange"

Even kids can perform a simple trick and show everyone in kindergarten. The little fakir takes an orange in his hand and shows it to the audience. He covers it with a handkerchief, says any abracadabra and tears off the fabric with the other hand. What do stunned classmates see? Apple!

The solution to the trick: you need to peel the orange in advance, without tearing the peel too much. Place an appropriately sized apple inside the crust. The peel is removed along with the scarf.

On a note! For the young magician, put on a hat, cape or cape for ambiance.

"I can fly above the ground"

Magic is based on optical illusion. The adult stands sideways to the children so that the toe of the left foot is not visible. Waves his arms and smoothly flies five to ten centimeters above the floor, lifting right leg up. In fact, home Hmayak Hakobyan is leaning on the toe of his left foot.

To perform this mystical trick, you will have to practice a little, otherwise the performance will fail due to the perspicacity of the young spectators.

"Button commands"

The magical experiment begins with demonstrative filling of a transparent glass with mineral water or light soda. Movements must be made smoothly so that the fizz does not spill on the table. Then we lower a small light button into a container of soda and command: “Get up!” The button floats to the top. We wait two or three seconds and again command, looking into the glass: “Get down!” The button will fall to the bottom immediately or after a couple of seconds. This amazing trick will not leave guests of any age indifferent.

Secret: Hocus Pocus does not need to be prepared specially, nor does it need to be trained for a long time. The button rises and falls due to mineral gases. They pick it up and release it alternately due to chemical interaction with oxygen. The young fakir needs to select the weight and size of the button in advance, and work out the length of pauses between commands. The experiment can be shown to guests at the dacha, when going out into nature, in a cafe - wherever there is a glass of soda.

“And I can crawl through a hole in paper!”

Such a statement will stun the audience. The magician will need the following set: A4 paper, scissors. The sheet needs to be folded in half. Use scissors to make zigzag cuts, first on one side, then on the other. Then cut the connections between the pieces of bent parts. It is important not to damage the last folds. They will connect the paper into a ring. It is better to prepare the equipment in advance.

After a funny statement, the magician will take the prepared sheet and scissors. It will make the appearance of a cut, stretch the paper into a long ribbon and calmly pass inside. The end result of the show is usually laughter.

Look at the video on how to do it correctly:

On a note! Before everyone finds out the answer, organize a competition for quick wits. Give boys, girls, and adults scissors and paper. Let them try to guess how the performer will get through the hole in the paper, practice on themselves. And at this time a smart magician will prepare a spectacular finale of the show for everyone.

"Young Telepath"

The child promises his friends or mother to guess what number they have in mind. Asks guests to think of anything - from 1 to 5. He waits for a minute. Pretends to read minds. Asks to tell what number the interlocutor has guessed, and takes out a card with a picture of the number from the closet, from the shelf or from any other place in the room.

The secret of the magical action is this: the magician writes numbers on cards in advance and puts them in hiding places. Remembers the location where the clue is stored. Pulls out a card at the right time.

Hold a competition for guessing the planned numbers in the senior preschool educational institution group when children are already familiar with writing numbers and counting. Focus is fun. But at the same time it will amuse and teach children to be attentive, train their memory, and raise the self-esteem of the performer.

"Flying Cup"

This is an interesting magic trick game. Dads and children will like it.

You need to perform the trick like this: glue it to plastic cup on one side is a piece of double-sided tape. Attach your thumb to the adhesive tape and do some magic. Start raising your hands along with the cup. Don’t forget to open your palms wide so that the fastening is not visible and the audience does not begin to guess about anything. The container will take off under the control of a fakir who has telekinesis. The cup can float empty or filled with tea or compote.

On a note! After the holiday, be sure to conduct a lesson or master class for preschoolers on teaching this basic trick. It's easy to do, step-by-step instruction will help children become wizards.

"Plastic bag sippy cup"

This is a cool trick that can be easily explained by physical laws. The parent and the children fill the bag with water and tie a knot at the top.
