Abracadabra Your Way To Cool Mom Status With These Magic Tricks For Kids

Remember how cool it was when we were growing up to watch David Copperfield specials on television? Sure, it turns out that Copperfield might have been a bit of a cringe-worthy person, but we didn’t know that at the time. All we knew was that he could make stuff disappear. For most of us, this was way before the likes of famous magicians like Criss Angel or magical characters like Harry Potter appeared in our lives. We dreamed of meeting someone who could make a train disappear or make us levitate. Sometimes we even wished we knew the tricks ourselves and bought magic sets. Kids these days are no different — even if there’s no crazy magic special on Sunday night television. They long to be witches, wizards, and magicians who perform impressive magic tricks for kids. And why not? There’s a lot of scary stuff in our world, and disappearing into a fantastical world sounds pretty nice. (It may or may not be why so many Disney adults exist.)

So, here we are: Your kid wants to learn magic tricks, and, welp, you never learned any. The magic you know is using a “Magic Eraser” to remove crayons from the wall and saying “Accio, caffeine” before you slurp your black coffee. It turns out, though, that there are actually still plenty of magic tricks you can learn and then teach your kids. We’re here to deliver those tricks to you.

Super Simple “Magic” Tricks for Little Kids

These tricks aren’t fooling anyone over the age of five or six. But they’re a fun way to get the ball rolling when showing off your “magic skills” and beginning to teach your kids sleight of hand.

1. Bending Spoon

This is all about hand placement and movement. While we’re not sure this technically constitutes sleight of hand since nothing happens very quickly, it does rely on your own finesse.

2. Rubber Pencil

We all know this trick, right? How many silly elementary school boys tried to impress you with their rubber pencil? For some reason, even after you know the trick, it’s still amusing enough to laugh at and roll your eyes.

3. The Shell Game

They recently did this magic trick on an episode of Clifford, and kids everywhere undoubtedly developed a new obsession. This easy tutorial walks you through how to make it happen.

4. Magnetic Pencil

Still have that “rubber” pencil handy? You kid will be doubly surprised to learn that it’s also magnetic. Later, they’ll enjoy seeing how easy it is to fake your way through it.

5. Cold As Ice

With a bit of grown-up help for set-up, even your youngest kids will be able to pull off this easy and fun magic trick. All you need are two cups, a sponge, some ice and some water. Can you turn water into ice instantaneously? We can… now.

6. The Magic Tube

In this video, the magic instructor uses some branded merchandise. Don’t let that fool you, though; you can easily teach your kids this magic trick with something as easy and cheap as an empty toilet paper roll or a paper towel tube.

7. Unbreakable Egg

When applying even pressure to an egg, it’s nearly impossible to break. Kids don’t know that, though. That makes this “magic” trick a true work of art. Still, we recommend practicing outside — just in case.

Cool Magic Tricks for Older Kids

8. Rope Magic: Thread The Needle

If your kid has great hand-eye coordination, they might be able to tackle this one. However, because of the level of finesse needed to make this one look believable, it’s best left to older kids. All you need is a needle and a piece of rope.

9. Coin-in-Rings Vanishing Act

This trick requires a bit of crafty setup that makes it perfect for older kids. After the initial setup, making the coin disappear is easy enough that kids of just about any age can tackle it.

10. Walk Through Paper

OK, so this one isn’t so much an actual magic trick as it is a joke or tease. All your kiddo needs for this is a piece of paper and some decent scissor skills.

11. Impassable Corks

Looking for some true sleight of hand magic? This trick is as old as time… and entertaining to boot!

12. Levitation

Time for the ultimate magic trick: Making yourself levitate. It’s actually easier than you think.

What other tricks do you have up your sleeve?

13. Mobius Strip

This isn’t necessarily a magic show trick, but it is a craft that will blow your kid’s mind. Making a Mobius Strip is a supernatural feat in itself. You’ll need a strip of paper, proper measurements, and tape. This paper design hails from Germany and has been a paper trick since the 1800s. So in between the magic, you can slip in some history too!

14. Multiplying Coins

Grab two fun colored paper plates. On the back of each one, tape a tiny paper pocket. Put about one to two quarters in the pocket and do the same to the other plate. Then slide the plates underneath each other so that a quarter pops out onto the other plate. After doing this a few times, it will give the illusion that the quarters are multiplying in the plate.

What Parents Are Saying About Magic Kids…
_____________________________________________

“My 8-year son and I played with the alphabet app, and the part that we enjoyed the most was being able to point the app at different objects in our house and have the app identify it. Seemed a little bit magical to both my son and I.”

“My son really enjoyed the app. As a science kid he loved that it was sharing and telling him all about the solar system. We found out facts about different planets that we had no idea about. And he was just really loving the game, that’s great. It allowed him to feel immersed into this super science technical space right from home, right from our living room!”

“Hi I’m Leandra, I work with teachers every day….One of the biggest complaints that they have about the different learning resources available to students is the lack of focus on student engagement…Magic Kids help kids learn in this really hands-on way where they can move around and access topics like space and dinosaurs and learn in a way where the environment actually responds to them!”

“What Magic Kids is making with these augmented reality lessons, it really has student engagement and student participation at its core in a way that a lot of other tech products don’t.

I have been using

I have been using the application for 4 months and ready to write a review. I was surprised that there were so few comments, because the game is noteworthy. Captivating characters and high-level graphics. My child asks for a phone every day and we play together, but no more than an hour a day.

so good

The teachers at our school advised the Magic Kids app. My son is calm and doesn’t really like to communicate with other children, but in the Magic Kids app we found characters that make my child happy every day! Thank you!

It Doesn’t Work

I downloaded the free trial for my daughter and it doesn’t work. It freezes on her iPad. I restarted the game, deleted and reinstalled it and still it doesn’t work. Can’t find how to get support. There is no contact information on their website. Now I just want to end the subscription before they start charging me for a defective app. Can’t find the subscription anywhere on any of my accounts. But it’s in my purchase history. Anyone have any suggestions?

FULL MOON – YOUR CHILD’S PROTECTIVE MAGIC

A child is a great treasure, and the child’s well-being is by far the most important thing for a loving parent. However, life itself is not always free from dangers and anxieties. If you feel that your child has little protection, he easily gets into trouble, someone mocks him, or you just want to protect him from danger, then this ritual will help you with this.

When to do this ritual?

The Full Moon Ritual is always one of the most powerful, so it’s best to do this magic during Full Moon. Approximately every 28 days there is a new Full Moon. You can do the Full Moon Ritual 3 days in a row, i.e. you can choose the date that suits you. Full Moon rituals can be performed the day before, exactly on the day and after the Full Moon. In the moon calendar you can find the exact dates.

Perform this ritual when you feel you want to protect your child and create a strong shield for him. If you have several children, you can perform the ritual on several children at once. Magic can be repeated over time. Do this if you feel that your child’s Aura has weakened.

Where to perform this ritual?

Perform the ritual in a place that suits you and that you have chosen. The total duration of the magic is about 30 minutes. If you perform the ritual on several children at once, you can count on more time.

MAGIC RECIPE:

1. Sage and Lavender ritual plant torch (or alternatively, Sage and Lavender incense )
2. Incense of Commitment
3. Lemurian Jadeite (1 crystal per child).
4. Black bag (1 bag per child).
5. Photograph of a child on paper (as new as possible)
6. Matches
7. White candle
8. Refractory base
(for candles).
9. Incense holder (for incense).

Send Magic0007

1. Light a white candle in front of you, and place the blessing Commitment to smoke on the incense holder. This incense helps to send prayers and wishes to the Aura field of another person. This is a very important incense for the ritual.

2. If you set incense to smoke, take a photo of your child / children in your hands.

3. Place Lemurian jadeite on the photo. If there are several children, place one crystal on each photo. Lemurian Jadeite is a crystal that helps increase protection in the Aura field, remove misfortune and protect against evil. This is a great crystal for this magic.

4. After the crystals are placed on the photo, take the ritual torch and set it to smoke from the candle flame (if the smoke stops, light the torch again from time to time). Clear the photo with the ritual torch, which means move with the ritual torch over the photo, making circular motions with your hand. At the same time, want your child to be cared for and protected. Then put the torch aside.

5. Now put left hand on the photo so that crystal and photo are at hand. Close your eyes, focus on your child and wish that he or she is protected and taken care of. You can also ask for help and safety on a specific topic, such as protection from someone who hurts. If you are doing the ritual for several children at once, repeat it from the second photo.

6. When you have finished sending wishes, light the ritual torch again. Circle the photo and focus on the child being cared for and protected. When you’re done, put the torch aside and move on to finishing the magic.

7. Now leave the photo and the crystal in place until the incense is completely gone. When it stops smoking, fold the photo and place it with the crystal in the black bag . To complete the ritual, light the torch again and make circles around this bag. Then the magic is confirmed.

8. Keep the magic bag in a hidden place in the children’s room. It should not be visible to the eyes where it can be seen by family members. Keep this bag there while the protection is working. It can work for months and years. If at any point you feel like you want to do some magic for your child again, do it with a new photo and a crystal. You can take crystals and a photo from an old magic bag and take these crystals to the forest.

9. If your child lives far away from you, for example, you want to perform magic on an adult child, you can leave the ritual bag at home.

Children are the most precious treasure that must be protected and protected with all your might !

Foreword

Many years ago, a young mother came into my office. Her name was Sarah, and she raised three children alone. At that time she was thirty-three years old. When Sarah sat down and I had a chance to look at her, I thought: this woman looks like she was just run over by a truck.

When I asked Sarah what brought her to me, she replied:

– Dr. Phelan, I don’t feel like getting out of bed in the morning. This is terrible. I just lie there with my head covered and cowering in fear.

– Why don’t you want to get up?

– The thought of having to wake up my three children and get them ready for school horrifies me. It’s just a nightmare! They reject any negotiations, fight, pretend not to see me. I scream and scream and grumble. And all this makes me so upset that the whole day goes down the drain. I can’t concentrate on work and I’m constantly depressed. And the next morning it starts all over again.

I asked Sarah a series of questions and briefly got to know her life story. Then he asked if she wanted to try 1-2-3 Magic.

– I’ll do anything! Sara exclaimed.

And I taught her 1-2-3 Magic.

Sarah returned home and began to talk to the children in a new way. They giggled and looked at her like she was crazy.

But within a few weeks, Sarah’s three children believed her. She used counting when there was rivalry and disrespect between siblings. Used tactics start behaviors so that children pack their things, do their homework and, most importantly, get up in the morning and leave the house for school. Sarah also learned to listen kindly and communicate with each of the children one on one – to strengthen relationships.

Sarah was a tenacious tin soldier. She made a revolution in her house, and we met less and less, because she no longer needed my help in such a volume.

Sometime in early January, Sarah came to see me for the last time. Now she didn’t look like she’d been run over by a garbage truck. Sarah sat down in a chair and I asked her how she was doing.

– Excellent! Really great.

“Sounds inspiring,” I remarked. “Although you have just spent two weeks of Christmas holidays with your children.

– Yes, and everything was fine. I have come a long way. She hesitated. – Do you know what? I didn’t realize how much things had changed until the kids got back to school after the holidays.

– What do you mean?

Sarah was silent again, tears glistening in her eyes.

– I miss them, for the first time in my life.

How can Magic 1-2-3 help you?

If you are raising young children, the 1-2-3 Magic Program could be your ticket to a brighter future as successful parents. Why am I so sure of this? Judge for yourself!

1. More than 1.6 million copies of this book have been sold.

2. 1-2-3 Magic has been translated into twenty-two languages.

3. For the past few years, 1-2-3 Magic has consistently ranked at the top of the parenting and discipline books list on amazon.com.

4. This program is adapted for fathers.

5. It is evidence-based, which means it works.

For Best Results

1-2-3 Magic provides simple, easy-to-understand methods for correcting the behavior of children approximately two to twelve years of age. These methods are suitable for all children – both normal and developmentally delayed. You can use “Magic for 1-2-3” from the age of eighteen months, if the child develops without deviations.

For best results, remember a few things.

1. All methods should be used exactly as described here. This is especially important for rule “No Talk, No Emotion” .

2. When both mom and dad live with their children, ideally both adults should participate in the program. But if one of the parents refuses “Magic for 1-2-3”, the second one can still use it independently (provided, of course, that the partner treats the children reasonably).

3. Single parents who live apart can also use this method effectively. It is preferable that both parents use the program, but this is not always possible. In fact, single moms and dads benefit greatly from a system as simple and effective as 1-2-3 Magic. Raising kids alone can be stressful, but it doesn’t take long to implement a discipline program.

4. Grandparents, nannies and other people who are raising young children have also found the 1-2-3 Magic program very helpful. There were times when grandparents discovered “Magic for 1-2-3” for themselves and told their children about it. In addition, lately I have been hearing more and more often that grandparents are raising their grandchildren themselves and consider the “Magic for 1-2-3” program to be a lifesaver.

5. Make sure your children are physically healthy. After all, diseases, allergies and physical pain exacerbate the problems of children – both in the emotional sphere and in behavior. It is extremely important to regularly examine the child with a doctor. It is also important to know and follow the natural daily routine of the child, which relates to meals, hygiene procedures and sleep patterns. A child who has not had enough sleep, or is hungry, or wants to go to the toilet, can create serious problems for parents.

Need for Professional Advice

Parents sometimes ask when they should consult with a mental health professional when using the 1-2-3 Magic Program.

It is recommended to undergo a psychological evaluation and seek specialist advice before using 1-2-3 Magic if the child has a history of physical abuse, or severe self-harm, or extreme separation anxiety. It can be difficult to deal with such children in the initial period, when they are just getting used to the new rules of discipline.

If your family is already working with a psychologist , discuss the use of “Magic for 1-2-3” with him in advance. If the psychologist is not familiar with this program, share the book with him.

It is recommended to sign up for a psychological examination and consultation with a specialist after the use of “Magic for 1-2-3”, in the following cases:

1. If unstable relations between spouses or conflicts prevent effective application of the method. 1-2-3 Magic is usually good at helping mom and dad get on the same side in parenting. Sometimes just a few consultations will help find the right course.

2. If one or both parents are unable to comply with the No Talk, No Emotion rule (see Chapter 4). Stress, anxiety and depression sometimes do not allow parents to calm down enough to effectively use “Magic for 1-2-3”. If parents use alcohol and drugs, they can behave aggressively, and all parenting methods will be ineffective.

3. If a child behaves very badly even after three weeks after the start of the program, manipulates and “tests” the parents. If you had a hard time dealing with a small child before using 1-2-3 Magic, now it’s better, but there are still many problems.

4. Trust your instincts. Here’s a great rule of thumb: if you have a specific problem with your child and it’s been going on for more than six months that’s too long. Talk to a mental health professional or pediatrician to find out what’s wrong. If there really is a problem, try to fix it or learn how to deal with it. If everything is in order, stop worrying.

In young children, psychological and behavioral problems often manifest as:

• find it difficult to concentrate and sit still;

• they lag behind in the development of speech, avoid interaction and communication, their interests are limited;

• they behave in an unacceptable, hostile or defiant manner;

• they have excessive anxiety or severe separation anxiety;

• lost interest in entertainment and became irritable;

• children show physical or verbal aggression;

• they cannot or refuse to comply with the rules and regulations appropriate for their age;

• They have unexpected learning problems.

Introduction

Parenting: long hours, no pay, excellent profits

– Can I have a cookie?

– No, dear.

– Why?

– Because we will have supper in fifteen minutes.

– Yes, but I want cookies.

– I just said no.

You never give me anything.

– Really? What do you mean? Are you not wearing any clothes? Don’t you have a roof over your head? Am I not going to feed you soon?

– You gave Joey a cookie half an hour ago.

– Look, are you Joey? Also, he eats dinner.

– I promise I’ll eat dinner.

– I don’t need these promises, empty promises, Monika! Yesterday – at half past four – you ate half a sandwich with butter and jam, and then did not have dinner at all!

– THEN I WILL KILL MYSELF AND WILL RUN OUT OF HOME!

Meet the 1-2-3 Magic

Raising children is one of the most important things in the world, and it can be the most joyful activity in life, incomparable with other areas. Young children are charming, cute, gentle, curious, funny and full of energy. For many adults, raising children is extremely beneficial.

Still, being a mother or father can be incredibly frustrating. When the cookie scene is repeated for the thousandth time, it’s hard not to despair. And then often swearing and spanking are used. This is a bad way of survival for everyone – both for children and adults.

The How to Raise Me guide is not included with a newborn baby. That is why there is a program “Magic for 1-2-3”! The program is already used by millions of parents around the world, including singles and divorcees, as well as teachers, grandparents, kindergarten and summer camp teachers, nannies, nurses in hospitals and other people who are somehow connected with raising children. And they all have one goal – to raise a happy and healthy child.

1-2-3 Magic is taught and recommended by thousands of mental health professionals and pediatricians. It’s talked about at parent-teacher conferences (sometimes parents recommend 1-2-3 Magic for Teachers to teachers, and other times teachers introduce 1-2-3 Magic to parents!).

Why such interest? As one mom said, “1-2-3 Magic is easy to learn and I got results. I enjoy being with children again and have become the mother I always wanted to be.” More than twenty-five years have passed since the launch of this program, and today we hear from parents: “My children were good children and they grew up to be wonderful adults. It’s a joy to be with them.”

With 1-2-3 Magic, children become adults capable of self-discipline, aware, happy and getting along with others. 1-2-3 Magic helps you grow an emotionally competent person who knows how to manage his own feelings, and also understands and respects the feelings of others.

The method described in the book is easy to apply and you can start immediately . You will need three to four hours to study it. Anyone can use 1-2-3 Magic: all you need is intent and interest!

Take action!

When you have finished reading about the 1-2-3 Magic program, start implementing it right away. Talk to your spouse if you live together and take action. If you don’t start immediately, you may never start.

By studying Magic 1-2-3, you will know exactly what to do and what not to do, what to say and what not to say – in all the everyday problem situations that arise when raising children. Because 1-2-3 Magic is based on a few but very important principles, you will be able to do what needs to be done even when anxious, agitated or upset (which happens to many parents every day!). You will be a kind but effective caregiver, even when busy, in a hurry, or preoccupied with other issues.

What to expect in the beginning

Once you start using “Magic for 1-2-3”, your relationship with your children will quickly change. But I have two news for you – good and bad. Good: about half of the children immediately begin to cooperate. You implement the 1-2-3 Magic methods and the kids immediately support you – sometimes just in a “magical” way. What should you do? Just relax and enjoy your luck!

But here’s the bad news: the other half of the children immediately start a confrontation.
