How to get your kid interested in magic!

September 30th, 2006

September 27th, 2006

A question I’m frequently asked about the Amazing Kids Magic Kit is “How much practice will my kid need to do the tricks?” I wish I had a firm answer for that question.  Every kid learns at a different speed, and the amount of help that a kid has while learing makes a big difference.  [...]

A VERY easy magic trick for young kids

September 24th, 2006

I got a call from a parent asking if the Amazing Magic Kit would be good for her daughter who was four years old.  Unfortunately the Amazing Magic Kit is recommended for kids ages 6-12, and would not be the best choice for a younger kid. There aren’t really any good magic kits on the [...]
