Magic tricks for children.
7 Answers
Has anyone got any simple magic tricks, that a child could do preferably. Or even simple ones that are impressive. I remember there used to be a maths one in which you could always know the answer due to one of the numbers you put into the equation, but I can't remember it now. My 7 year old is into magic at the mo so it's just for a bit of fun until he loses interest, which will prob be within a week.

Or the one where you make a napkin peak stand up in your hand then wind a pretend hair round the top and pretend that you are tugging the hair while using your thumb pressed into he napkin so it bend towards the direction you are "tugging" from.

mini, yeah I know that one it is good. tink, I will probably be using the cards for poker at some stage so I don't wanna be known as a marker.
I know a good trick were you use 21 cards. Let someone pick one and look at it then put it back into pack. You then deal out three piles one card at a time. Each time the person tells you which pile their card is in. You pick up the three piles putting the pack with their card in the middle. You do this 3 times. After that their card is either the 7th or 11th card from the top, I can't remember which. You can mess about with this trick a bit.

I think the simplest and easy trick for a 7-year-old child would be spoon-bending trick. Here is the description: The key to performing easy magic tricks for kids like this is all in how you hold the spoon while “bending” it. Grab the spoon and hold it with both hands closed around the handle. Make sure that the spoon is not peeking out the top of your hands. Now place the bottom bowl of the spoon, open side up, onto the table. As you begin to press down on the spoon, you allow the handle to slide along the inside of your hand until it reaches the bottom of your palm. This makes it look like the spoon is bending from the spectator’s point of view, even though you are not bending it at all. Your other hand that appears to be gripping the spoon is hiding the spoon handle sliding in your first hand.
