Magic tricks attract the attention of viewers of all ages, because they, like nothing else, demonstrate real magic in everyday life. Tricks fascinate, intrigue, and after a magician demonstrates them, you always want to unravel the secret, or even better, learn how to perform it yourself. The latter may not be easy, because magicians often use special props and hone their skills over the years to amaze the audience.
However, there are many simple tricks that even a child can master. To carry them out, you don’t need special preparation; it’s enough to know a few secrets and practice before demonstrating to the audience. The ability to effectively surprise peers, and even adults, raises a child’s self-esteem and makes him more self-confident, which is especially important for shy children.
In addition, most simple magic tricks are based on physical or chemical laws, which allows you to introduce your child to science in a “magical” way.
Before you teach your child a new trick, demonstrate it yourself. Explain the main secret - why it happens this way and not otherwise. Help your child learn the trick. After a few practices, you can perform in public!
And we offer you a series of 11 simple tricks for children that will be an excellent start for a young illusionist.
It often happens that an uncut thread sticks out of clothes and spoils the appearance of the interlocutor. The situation is especially unpleasant when there are no scissors at hand and then you can ask someone to cut the thread, citing dirty hands or your own clumsiness. What a surprise the interlocutor will be when he pulls the thread and discovers that it is endlessly long!
For the trick we will need: a needle, thread, short pencil. Instead of a pencil, you can use a whole spool of thread, but then the chances of the trick being revealed increase significantly.
So, we wind a couple of meters of thread around a pencil in a color that matches the threads in your clothes. We put a pencil in the pocket and, using a needle, bring the end of the thread out to the seam on the clothing. The preparation is over, you can go “ask for help.”
This trick is best demonstrated while drinking tea. To do this, press a teaspoon, previously dipped into sweet tea, to your thumb and wait for the tea to dry a little. When dry, the sweet syrup will “glue” the spoon to your finger and it will hang confidently on it even when you move it. You can also demonstrate this trick by gluing a spoon to your nose, chin and demonstrating the magical properties of your cutlery.
For the trick, we need an empty matchbox and any flat obstacle: a large book/folder/cutting board, etc.
First, we ask the guest to move the matchbox from its place without using his hands. This is easy to do by blowing on it. Now ask them to make the box move closer to you instead of moving away. If the guest is confused, show him a master class! We place an obstacle behind the box and blow strongly not on the box, but on this obstacle, just above the box. The air flow will hit the obstacle and return, taking with it a light matchbox. This way the boxes will move towards you without using your hands.
Banana trick
You can easily surprise your guests at the table with this trick, you just need to prepare a little. The idea is that you offer your guests to peel a whole banana. When the guest removes the peel, he discovers a chopped banana inside.
To prepare we will need: a whole banana, a long needle and a little lemon juice.
We pierce the banana peel with a needle and make several upward and downward movements with it, cutting through the soft inside of the banana. We do this several times, thereby cutting the banana into several parts. Then, treat the puncture sites with lemon juice, otherwise they will darken and be noticeable. The preparatory work is completed - you can surprise your guests!

Climb through a sheet of paper
Another riddle you can ask your guests is about a sheet of paper. After providing them with an A4 sheet of paper and scissors, ask them to cut the sheet so that both a child and an adult can fit through it. Cutting inside the sheet will not give anything - the hole will be too small. However, if you cut the sheet according to the diagram, you will get a huge ring that anyone can pass through.
To do this, fold the sheet widthwise to form a long narrow rectangle and make cuts on both sides, as for a children's garland. At the end, you will still need to cut the sheet at the place of the original fold, leaving the edges intact (the beginning of the cut is at the location of the scissors in the photo). Now we unfold our sheet and get a huge “ring”. Mission accomplished!
Matchbox in a balloon
It's rare for a child's birthday to be complete without balloons. You can also show a trick with a ball, and not only by piercing it with a needle, as we wrote about.
Say that you have a magic matchbox that can penetrate the balloon through its wall. To do this, inflate a regular balloon in front of the audience, without tying it, and press a matchbox tightly to its bottom. Now release the air from the ball, remembering to press the box against the ball all the time. When the balloon deflates, the audience will see that there is a box inside the deflated balloon. Put it on your hand and show everyone the result of the magic. The most important thing is not to let anyone know what really happened, otherwise the secret will be revealed immediately.
Need a script for a children's party?
The box, of course, did not get inside. During deflation, the stretched rubber wrapped around the matchbox on three sides, and if you do not look from below, it seems that the matchbox is inside.
We will need 3 opaque cups, a small wad of napkin to match the color of the cup, and sleight of hand.
Show the audience a stack of cups and place them in front of you, bottom up. Ask someone or yourself to roll up a small wad of napkin and place it on a medium glass. Now cover the middle glass with those standing next to you and say your favorite “magic words”. Raise the stack of glasses - a wad of napkin has passed through the bottom of the glass and is lying on the table. You are a real magician! 
The secret is to place the same wad of napkin in the second glass before performing the trick. So that the spectators do not notice anything, the cups must be turned over quickly - with a sharp movement of the hand. Thus, already at the beginning of the trick, under the second glass there is a wad of napkin. All that remains is to make sure that the second lump is similar to the first.
To be honest, I doubted until the last minute whether my 4-year-old daughter would master this trick, but she did it wonderfully the second time. Therefore, you can safely show and teach your children such spectacular and simple tricks.
And a few more tricks from passionate mothers.
Magic water trick
Idea: we decided that a clown magician would perform a trick for our daughter. They turned on funny music and called a clown together with my daughter. The clown (dad) came, said hello, magic music started playing, the clown took out a jar of water... We looked at it, after which the clown said the magic words: “You are water - water, light like frost, become water - water, not light, but... green (red, blue)”, shook the jar and... the water turned green (red, blue).
Required materials: glass jar with a lid, gouache, water.
The technical part of the trick: pour water into a jar, spread gouache of the desired color on the lid, and close the jar with a lid. The presenter shows the jar, noting that the water in it is clear and light. After that, he says the “magic words” and shakes the jar, and the water turns gouache.
My daughter’s reaction was frightened by the clown, so I had to show the rest of the trick to me myself. There was surprise and a smile on Alena’s face at how the water turned into a different color.
Salimova Olga and daughter Alena 2 years old. 4 months, Ekaterinburg.
I surprised my children with drawing on milk. Anya already tried this method, but as it turned out, she completely forgot.
We will need:
- a plate of milk;
- diluted food coloring;
- liquid dishwashing detergent;
- shelves for drawing (optional).
We drop dyes of different colors into a plate with milk and watch how the paint spreads. You can draw a little with a stick (I recommend it for older children and it is important that there is no intense mixing, otherwise all the beauty will be lost), but even without this, beautiful patterns will appear in the plate. 
To complete the process, add a drop of liquid soap, or dip a cotton swab in the soap and place it in a plate. And watch the magic! The paint runs away from a drop of soap, as if by magic. You can add coloring once or twice more. In the final spills, you can dip the paper and print paint on it.
Kudryashova Nadezhda and children: Anya 4 years 6 months. and Misha 1 year 5 months, St. Petersburg.
For the experiment, I took a saucer with water, a piece of white paper napkin, on which I drew squares with colored felt-tip pens. When you put a napkin in water, the water begins to rise up due to the capillary effect - colored paths appear, a beautiful rainbow. They explained to my daughter that the water ran upward along the colored paths.

Ice tricks for kids
We carried out. I froze water in a candy box and it turned out to be very cute cubes with a flower. At first my daughter didn’t understand what it was, she actively touched it, showing that it was cold. Then she started trying - taking it into her mouth and taking it out again. Then we tried to paint the cubes with gouache using our fingers and a brush. And at the end of the experiment, they sprinkled salt so that the ice melted. Naturally, I didn’t have enough patience to wait, but I really enjoyed clapping my hands on the melted water.
Did you like magic tricks for children? Save it to your social network wall and prepare a magician’s act for the next holiday!
Have you suddenly found yourself at the world's most boring party? Is there an awkward silence? Or maybe you want to surprise someone very special to you? It never hurts to have a trick up your sleeve. Whether it's sleight of hand, a science experiment, or you're simply the lucky recipient of an unusual talent, here are 25 impressive and easy magic tricks you can do yourself.
Simple trick with splitting the bullseye
Do you still use a knife to cut fruit? To divide an apple, there is, if not a more effective, then certainly a much cooler way. Take the apple in both hands so that your thumbs rest on top of the fruit, and by squeezing, use sliding circular movements. The apple should split neatly into two pieces right down the center.
Magnetized coin
Place a playing card on the pad of your index finger and then place a coin on top. With a sharp snap, knock the playing card off your finger. The card will fly free, but the coin will remain on your finger.
Jumping Egg
Make a chicken egg jump from a glass to another glass just by blowing on it. To do this, place the egg with a wide base in a glass. Then place another glass next to it, identical to the first. Blow hard on the top of the egg and it will jump into the next glass, landing with its narrower base directly inward.
Magic fire extinguisher
Mix the white vinegar solution and baking soda in a measuring cup, then cover until you no longer hear the characteristic hissing sound. Next, as if pouring air from a cup over a candle flame. It will fade away on its own, all you have to do is play the role of the great Houdini.
The secret of the magic lighter
Now that all your candles have been magically extinguished, it's time to light them again. While smoke is rising from the wick, quickly bring the light to it (the haze). The flame will begin to descend towards the candle along the smoke path, as a result of which the wick will light up again.
Turn water into whiskey at home
Fill one glass with water and the other with whiskey. Next, cover the glass of water with a plastic card, turn it over and place it directly over the glass of whiskey. Slide the card and watch how quickly the liquids switch places.
Who stole the flame?
If you have such an old-fashioned lighter, then you can definitely impress everyone with your trick. To begin, take a pencil or pen and move the wick slightly to the side from its normal position. Then light your lighter with your usual movement and move your hand over the flame, creating the impression that you are “stealing” the fire. This will cut off the flow of oxygen in the flame, but the wick will still burn inside the kind of pocket that you created when you moved it. You need a little air to light the flame again, for this you can lightly blow on the lighter or create an air flow with smooth movements of your hand over the wick.
Stand the can on its hind legs
Once you've finished about half of the soda or any other drink in the can, you can show your friends another trick. Place the jar on the bottom, tilting it slightly so that it feels like it is about to fall on its side. Carefully remove your hands from it so as not to accidentally touch the body and stop balancing your jar. She will remain in this position until you pick her up again.
Sink the ketchup packet
Find a packet of ketchup that easily floats to the surface, place it in a bottle of water and cap it. Now, just by pressing a little on the sides of the bottle, you can control the ketchup packet inside.
The most virtuoso piano playing
Playing the piano is, of course, very impressive in itself. But in order to learn how to play beautifully, you need to spend a decent amount of time. But don't worry, you can become a virtuoso performer just by moving your hands randomly. Play in octaves using only your pinky and thumb. Make sure that your fingers are always placed on the black keys. By pressing your little finger and thumb on any of the black keys, you can also finger them with your remaining three fingers, creating amazing sounds.
Magical twisting of the shell
Wet your plate with water, making sure the entire plate is wet. Place a piece of shell on a plate and give it a good swirl. The shell will spin quickly around your plate. You can also change the trajectory of its rotation by slightly tilting the plate.
Fun drinks
Add a couple of drops of food coloring in different colors to clear glasses. Then carefully cover the droplets with pieces of ice. When you pour a clear liquid, such as water or Sprite, into a glass, it will immediately turn a bright color. Ready. Enjoy beautiful and tasty drinks.
How to fill an upside down glass with wine
To fill an upside down glass with wine, you will need to pour some wine into a plate or similar cup and place a lit candle in the middle. Cover the candle with a glass and observe. As soon as the flame goes out, the liquid will gradually begin to flow into the inverted glass.
Magician's serving
Each of us has at least once seen the same trick with the tablecloth being torn off the dinner table right from under the plates and glasses. However, if you tried this same trick at home, it probably ended disastrously. The whole trick here is to pull the linen down, rather than towards itself, and in the position of the tablecloth itself. Cover the table so that the tablecloth does not hang from the edge opposite to your position. The farther this side of the tablecloth is from the edge of the table, the easier it will be to pull it off the other edge.
Floating rings
Stretch the elastic band between your hands and first thread it into the ring. Hold a small section of this rubber band in the fist of one hand so that it is not visible. Pull the visible part so that the hand with the hidden part of the rubber thread is lower, so your ring will roll towards it. Then slowly release the hidden piece of elastic, and with it the ring will begin to rise to the other hand. From the outside it will look as if the ring itself is starting to float and rise.
Flash freezing
Place the water bottle in the freezer for a few hours. Afterwards, carefully remove it, trying not to disturb the water inside, and shake it vigorously. Now watch the ice instantly spread throughout your bottle.
grass whistle
Pluck a straight blade of grass from your lawn. Then place it in your palms, as shown in the figure, and squeeze your thumbs tightly so that a small hole appears between them. The original whistle is ready. To impress or really annoy your friends, all you need to do is blow into the hole. A sharp sound immediately pierces your ears.
Make Lincoln smile
Make the famous President of America smile widely or be very sad. To do this you will need a five dollar bill. To make America's sixteenth president happy or sad, make three vertical folds, two of which should go through the corners of the mouth, and one right down the center of the lips. But bend the one in the middle inward, and bend the other two outward. The banknote will be curved in a zigzag, and its center, when viewed from the side, will resemble the letter “M”. Now, by changing your viewing angle, you will make Lincoln on the banknote either smile or sad.
Magic knot on a napkin
Place a standard rag napkin on the table and invite your friends to tie the fabric into a knot, but without letting go of the ends. They are unlikely to succeed. But you know what needs to be done. To tie it, simply cross your arms over your chest before grasping the ends of the napkin. The hand of one hand should be on top of the elbow joint, and the other, respectively, below. Next, just spread your arms in different directions, and the knot will tie itself.
Coin on the edge of a bill
Place a hard banknote on the table. Place a coin on its edge so that the coin rests quietly on it without your help. You can move the ends of the bill slightly, forming a slight angle. Then slowly pull the bill into a straight strip. The coin will remain on the edge of the bill.
Bubbles on discs
First, you will need to scratch all the paint off your disc so that it is completely clean. Then hold the lighter to the clean side of the disc and light it. Once the disc begins to melt, quickly blow on the area, creating a large plastic bubble.
Flying cup
Poke your thumb through one of the sides of the plastic cup. Make sure no one sees this. Position this part towards yourself and the other towards the viewer. Hide the glass in your palms so that your thumbs are on the other side of the viewer. Insert one of your thumbs into the hole, and then slowly open your palms. It will seem as if the glass will float between your palms.
Balancing fork
Insert a match into the opening between the teeth of the forks as shown in the figure. If done correctly, you can get the match and forks to balance on the edge of the glass.
Interlock two closed pins
On one of the pins, slightly loosen the spring so that it does not close, but it does not appear that it is open. If you deftly move the second pin, you can, unnoticed by the viewer, insert one pin into the other and also separate the two pins. Your friends will definitely believe in magic, thanks to such a simple trick.
moonwalk
If you really want to dance like the King of Pop, you have to do it right. The trick to the moonwalk is to keep your weight on your bent, toe-hung leg while your other foot slides back on your heel. As soon as the second leg is one step further from the first, transfer your weight to it and repeat the same steps.

MountainDew Sparkling Water Bottle Glows!
From the name it is already clear that the bottle containing sparkling water will glow. It is only necessary to carry out a few simple chemical reactions so that the liquid in the vessel can emit light. The effect will be incredible, since the light is so bright that it resembles a lit light bulb.
Required:
- MountainDew - a bottle of soda.
- Plain soda.
- Hydrogen peroxide solution.
There is an assumption that MountainDew soda has become less popular precisely because of its ability to glow.
- To perform this trick, you need to take a bottle of sparkling water. Three quarters of the water should be poured out altogether, and the rest should be left.
- The next step is to put a little baking soda into the vessel, about one teaspoon, maybe a heaping amount.
- Then add hydrogen peroxide, about 3 bottle caps. Next, close the vessel and shake vigorously.
The longer you shake the bottle, the more noticeable the effect becomes. - The liquid in the vessel begins to glow. You can try to make various symbols, drawings, and words from glowing water. To do this, you just need to open the bottle and pour it onto any surface so that the image comes out. This trick will only work in the dark.
You need to be careful so that the liquid does not get on the surface of the skin, as well as in the eyes and inside.
A button can float in sparkling water
To perform this magic, you need to take regular sparkling water and a small button. Pour mineral water into a glass and put a button there. It turns out that she is drowning. Where are the miracles here? And everything will happen further.
Then, as soon as the button is in the vessel, you need to move your palm over it and say the following words: “Button up.” She will begin to rise. And once again you need to hold your palm over the glass and say: “Button down.” She will be down again.
The secret of this trick is simple:
- When the button is located at the very bottom, small bubbles form near it. When there are enough of them, they will push the button to the surface.
- As soon as the button floats up, the bubbles disappear, and then it comes back again. This process will continue until the gas water loses its ability to release gas.
To make this trick work, you need to practice thoroughly before performing it. It is necessary to calculate the time when you need to give the command to the button. Without preliminary preparation, the trick may fail. Watch the video of a trick for children at home:
Simple and interesting magic tricks for children and their parents
A balloon that can't burst
The magician needs to pick up a balloon, inflate it and pierce it through with a knitting needle. Surprisingly, the balloon did not burst.
The child must show the audience that this ball is ordinary, and then pierce it with a thin needle. The ball bursts immediately.
You will need a knitting needle, the main thing is that it is thin and long. After that, you should stick a little tape on both sides of the ball. Before performing magic, it is best to practice piercing the ball exactly in those places where the tape is attached. This must be done quickly and carefully.
If a knitting needle hits a stretched rubber, the balloon can easily burst.
The magical power of the bottle absorbed the rope
The child needs to take a vessel that has a narrow neck. A rope is lowered into it (not completely). The magician must show that the rope can easily enter the vessel and come out easily. After that, you need to turn the vessel upside down.
Viewers will see that the rope is hanging as if something is holding it inside. The magician must grab the rope, turn the vase over, let go and swing the vessel back and forth. Then the magician pronounces the magic words, the string calmly comes out of the neck. How could this happen?
- To perform the trick, you will need a thick rope, and it should be at least a meter long in order to easily control it. Accordingly, the neck of the vase should be twice as wide as the diameter of the string itself.
- You need to take a glass bottle and paint it, the main thing is that it is not transparent, you can beautifully decorate it with various designs. The most important thing is ahead: you need to take a small ball, it can also be made from a bottle cap.
- The main thing is that it is slightly larger than the diameter of the inner neck of the bottle. Afterwards you need to lower the ball into the vessel and not take it out until the trick is over.
- Once the child shows the guests that the string can go in and out easily, he should lower the string so that it touches the bottom. Next, turn the bottle over and very slowly, which is important, turn the vessel over.
- The ball also rolls to the bottom and secures the rope so that it cannot slip out of the neck of the bottle.
- The rope and the vessel must be held in different hands for the trick to work.
- Then you need to gently pull the rope so that it is finally secured. You also need to let go slowly. The audience will see that the rope does not fall.
- To turn the bottle to its original position without the rope slipping out, you need to hold it lightly with one hand. And so the vessel swings like a pendulum. In order for the rope to be freed from the vessel again, you just need to push the rope deeper and the ball will release it.
To make the effect even better, you can ask the audience to try this trick themselves. You can let him touch the bottle, check the rope. You can show the guests the bottom. While they are examining it, you need to quietly pick up the rolled out ball. After which it’s not scary to show the inside of the vase.
Are ordinary threads really capable of running too?
- The magician needs to take coils of different colors, the first is black, and the second is white. One of them should have threads, for example, the black one will have them, but the white one will not.
- Next, you need to cross your arms, cover the coils with something, or clench them into fists. For greater persuasiveness, read the magic words.
- This trick can be repeated more than once. The threads will change all the time, first on one spool, then on the other.
It’s not at all difficult to perform the magic; you just need to paint both coils the same color, that is, one side is white and the other is black.
- Place the coils themselves so that they seem to be of different colors. You just need to practice quietly turning the spools over, then the audience will get the feeling that the threads from one spool are running over to another. However, only the location changes.
The incredible magical transformation of an orange into an apple
The magician must take out an orange and demonstrate it to the audience. After which, you need to cover it with some beautiful and bright scarf. Say the magic words and pull off the scarf. Instead of an orange, an apple appeared. How is this possible? The secret of the trick is simple.
- Before performing the trick, you need to remove the orange peel so that it remains intact. After which the young wizard must dress the apple in orange peel. Choose the size of the apple slightly smaller than the orange itself.

The magic thread that has no end

The magician must show surprise on his face so that the audience believes him that this trick is unplanned.
To perform the magic, you need to take threads, preferably choosing a longer length, and wind them around a short pencil. After which the child must put the pencil in the side pocket, and the end of the thread must be pressed through the material of the jacket using a needle.

And we bet you can’t blow out the candle?!
Anyone can blow out a candle, but is it possible to do it if you have to blow through a funnel? The funnel is wide, and its end is narrow - it will be difficult to carry out this action. Especially when the candle is in the middle of the funnel, it will be completely impossible to blow out the candle. Even if you use all your lung power, the flame will not flutter.
However, there is a way to make the candle go out easily. It is important to know the location where you need to place the candle. You need to place the funnel so that the flame is at the edge of the funnel, and not in the middle. The candle will go out immediately. Why does this happen?
When air comes out through a narrow tube through a wide hole, it never gets into the middle.
Before exiting, the air is dispersed along the walls of the vessel, so the air can only reach the flame located at the edges of the funnel. The trick will surprise all viewers with its magical feature. Although this is just a law of physics.

- Next, the young wizard should hand the guests an ordinary white piece of paper and ask them to put it on the glasses, and place a third glass on top of it.
- Let the guests see for themselves that this is the most ordinary leaf and ordinary glasses. But the audience is perplexed, since it is impossible to perform this action, since the weight of the glass is much greater than the weight of an ordinary sheet of paper.
- Then the young wizard folds the paper like an accordion, and the glass easily rests on the surface. A very simple and clever way to amuse and amaze the audience.
