5 easy magic tricks for kids

Prep: Before you perform the trick, choose a friend to assist you and explain to them how it works. Tell your assistant to always inquire about the audience-chosen object after an item that’s the colour black. Your assistant will appear to be “testing” your powers in front of the audience.

Trick: Tell your audience that you have psychic powers. Ask your friend to assist you, then instruct the audience that they must choose an object when you leave the room. When they call you back in, ask the audience to concentrate on the item and then ask your assistant to start testing your powers. Have your assistant go through different objects in the room asking: “Is it the yellow chair? Is it the green rug?” etc. Astound everyone when you correctly identify the object!
