You can start demonstrating tricks after mastering its secrets, having thought through the image of the magician to the smallest detail and rehearsing the technique of the maneuver.
To amaze others with supernatural abilities, you must follow a number of rules of real magicians:
- It is important to practice the trick several times in front of a mirror. Facial expression, position and manual dexterity matter.
- Speech when performing a trick should be bright and thoughtful, since it acts as a distracting maneuver. The same applies to gestures. You can invite an assistant who will draw the viewer’s attention to himself during the manipulations.
- A real magician never reveals the secret of a trick.
- Maneuvers must be appropriate for the child's age. Easy pranks with food, balloons, and coins are suitable for kids. Primary schoolchildren are interested in scientific tricks, for teenagers - with cards, fire, and so on.
- When performing, one maneuver is not repeated twice - this will help preserve its secret and the mystery of the image of the magician.

How to get into the album sheet
The coolest and not difficult tricks- with paper. For example, catch the moment when the baby is drawing and ask how to get into the album sheet. The baby, of course, will not answer.
Then you need to fold the short sides of the sheet in half. Step back about 1-1.5 centimeters from the edge and use scissors to cut the paper from the fold of the sheet, just like cutting the spine of a book. Stop 1 centimeter from the edge where the sheet opens.
Cut the next side towards the fold. That is, step back 1 centimeter along the first slot and cut from the edge where the leaf opens, also without cutting 1 centimeter in front of the spine. In this way, riddled the entire paper, alternating sides.
When done, the result looks like pants. Along the edges of the sheet there should be cuts along only one pant leg on the fold side. And in the middle there are all pairs. We cut off the fold of the sheet on all pairs of pants. We straighten the paper and you can easily walk into the huge arch.

In any company there is always a person who knows how to cheer up and lift your spirits. Often this is a good storyteller, a lover of jokes, or a born entertainer. You don't have such talents, but you also wouldn't mind being in the spotlight?
There is a way out: you can try to master the art of magic in order to amaze your friends with real miracles. And for this it is not at all necessary to dissolve in water or cut yourself in two. Start with a small, but no less interesting performance - learn how to do tricks with coins. So, we reveal the secrets of illusionists.
You will need:
Appearance inside the glass
You need to prepare in advance, and you can only perform the trick once per evening. You will need: a transparent glass, a coin, glue and a scarf.
Glue the penny to the bottom. Show the audience an empty container, holding it from below, you can turn it over and run away. Then pour water into it, once again demonstrating that there is nothing in the glass.
Throw a scarf on top and announce that a coin will now appear inside. Here it is appropriate to say some abracadabra or make magical passes with your hands. Remove the scarf and invite the audience to look into the container - the coin, as you promised, lies at the bottom.
The secret is an optical illusion. When you look at the glass from the side, you get the impression that there is nothing in it; you can only see the object from above.
Invisible Rise
Place the penny on the table and invite someone to take it without touching the table or the penny itself. Naturally, no one can do this.
The trick is that you need to hold your hand 5 cm from the coin and blow on it with enormous force. Thus, the air is able to lift an object and throw it directly into the palm. We don’t promise that the trick will work the first time, but after several trainings you will learn everything.
Edge stand
Ask the audience for a large coin. Then stand facing them with your right hand extended forward, palm down. Place the disc between your fingers. Then carefully remove your left hand - the penny will remain on the edge and will not fall.
The point is an ordinary pin. As you place the penny on the fingers of your right hand, push the small pin head down with the thumb of your left hand, positioning it just behind it. The coin will stand straight on its edge, supported by a support invisible to the viewer.
Lemon
Prepare some fruits and put them on a plate. Invite the audience to see that the lemons in front of them are ordinary. Ask which lemon needs to be cut. Divide it into two parts with a knife - there will be a coin inside.
What's the catch? Everything is simple - you need to glue a coin to the knife using a thin layer of plasticine (closer to the handle, where you cover it with your hand). When pulling out the knife, pinch the blade with two lemon halves and you're done!
Brush
Place the coin in your palm. Take a regular brush in your other hand. Invite any spectator to clean the coin from your hand. And no matter how hard he tries, it won’t work. As an intrigue, you can even promise a prize to the winner. But that won't happen.
What is the secret of focus? It’s just that the bristles of the brush are elastic and always work in different directions– some move it up, while others move it down. In this cunning way, the object always remains in the center of the palm.
Disappearance
Take a penny from your pocket and clasp it in your fist. Then ask someone who wants to hold your hand and make sure that the coin does not disappear. He won’t be able to do this, because as soon as you open your fist, there will be no coin in it.
How to do this trick? Take out a lot of change from your pocket of different denominations. Pick one, say you don't need the others and throw them back. Create the appearance of holding a coin between the large and index finger right hand. In fact, there is no trace of it, since it went into the pocket along with the others.
These are all the simplest coin tricks that are easy to teach even to a child. If you have a more demanding viewer, and you do not intend to stop there, read on.
Sleight of hand
First of all, you need to practice several manual techniques until they become automatic:
Holding a coin in an open palm
Place 5 pennies in the center of the brush and very slowly begin to close it. If you select right place, the palm will begin to contract, securely fixing the position of the coin. Now you can wave your hand as you please without fear of it falling out.
Practice on both hands. In this case, you should show only the outer or side part of your palm to the audience.
Hiding
There are several techniques to make it appear that an object is moving from one hand to another. We recommend studying them all, since the same method will quickly arouse suspicion among an attentive counterpart.
- Take the coin with your index and middle fingers, holding it with your thumb. Then bend it back and pull the coin towards your palm - it will fall exactly in the place that you determined in the previous exercise. Now you need to work with both hands. One hides the coin, and the other seems to take it. As a result, the empty palm is kept closed, and the hand with the coin needs to be opened and lowered freely.
- Hold the coin between your index finger and ring fingers right hand. While moving it towards the left, simultaneously place your thumb on the coin, covering it with the upper knuckle. Bend your finger and hide the coin in this place, keeping it slightly bent. Make a movement with your other hand as if the money is already in it.
- Place the coin in the middle of your palm, and with your other hand make a realistic movement, as if you are taking it and hiding it in your fist. Lower your first hand, holding it open - the penny is hiding in our safe hollow.
- The coin lies on open hand. Move the other one so that your thumb goes under it and the rest on top, and immediately close your palm. From the outside it looks like you picked up the object, but in reality you drop it back, covering it with your fingers.
- The penny is held with the index, middle and thumb fingers, inner part palms facing the magician. With the same fingers of your other hand, you seem to grab it, meanwhile allowing it to slide into your half-bent palm.
- Ideal for using a large coin. Hold it with your index, middle and thumb fingers and, as if placing it on your other hand, use the tip of your thumb to move it to the middle phalanges. The hand remains open, and the coin is held at the ends by the pressure of the index and little fingers.
All movements should be calm, soft and as believable as possible. The gaze should always be directed towards the empty hand, this encourages the audience to also focus on it.
There are other methods, but to get started, it’s enough to master the ones described. Don't forget that these are just techniques, not actual tricks. You shouldn’t limit yourself to just hiding - you can surprise the audience a couple of times with your dexterity, but at the same time you will half reveal your secrets. Recommended in mandatory accompany all actions magic spells, waving your hands, it doesn’t hurt to have a “magic” wand, which often helps to hide the location of the money and hide it in a secluded place.
Now it's time to learn more complex coin tricks.
Penetration through glass
Show the empty glass and close it tightly open part hand. Turn it upside down, tap it with a coin and push it inside - it will ring between the walls and your palm.
To do such a trick, you need two absolutely identical pennies. One is shown to the audience, and the other is hidden in an open palm. Cover the container with this hand, tap the bottom with the first coin, and with the last movement, release the secret money inside, and quickly and discreetly hide the one with which you knocked.
The missing money
Place your left elbow on the table, and with your right hand begin to rub the coin into your forearm. Let it fall out on the table after a few seconds - this is necessary for the trick.

Coca-Cola in a ball
For this simple trick, all you need is a balloon and a bottle of Coca-Cola. Place the balloon on the neck of the bottle and have someone tilt the bottle and pour the cola into the balloon. Usually these attempts fail because the ball is tightly compressed. The secret is that you need to shake the bottle slightly so that the gas begins to move into the ball.
Banana with filling
A delicious trick for lovers of sweet surprises. You can try stuffing a banana without peeling it using a syringe. Or cut a banana from the tail side, make a hole with a straw and add Nutella or condensed milk. Then we take a banana, peel it and surprise the kids!
Phone - in a ball
A good trick for the holidays when balloons are flying everywhere in the room. We take one of them and keep it lying on the table, pressing it with the phone. Then we sharply deflate the ball by pressing on the phone. That's all - the gadget is “trapped”!
Light two candles without matches
This simple trick is very effective. You will need two candles, glycerin and potassium permanganate powder. Lubricate the wick of one candle with glycerin in advance, and the other with potassium permanganate. We bring the candles to each other with wicks... And, lo and behold, they light up! When performing a trick, keep the candles on outstretched arms, away from yourself.
Paperclip on the water
This focus will allow you to take your mind off work or school. Invite others to place a paperclip in a glass of water so that it does not drown. And when the unsuccessful attempts are completed, do the same, but with the help of another paperclip, previously unbent for the convenience of the process. And you did it!
Turning an orange into an apple
A wonderful trick for children. Show the orange, cover it with a scarf, say the “magic words” and tear off the scarf. Wow, there's an apple there! For this “miracle” you need to peel the orange in advance and place the apple in it. When showing, squeeze the apple in the orange peel and then deftly grasp the cloth and peel.
Ball raising glass
This trick is suitable for a friendly bet. Tell me that you can easily lift balloon cup. How is this possible? All the “magic” is in ordinary matches. We throw a burning match to the bottom of the glass and immediately apply the ball to the upper edge, pressing lightly. As soon as the match burns out, pick it up!
Guessing the magic number. This is a simple trick in which the magician asks a person to perform simple mathematical calculations, which leads him to practically the same answer every time. Here's what you should tell the viewer:
- “Come up with any number from 2 to 10.”
- "Multiply it by 9."
- “Add the first digit of this number to the second.”
- “Subtract 4 from the result.”
- “Remember the new number - this is your secret number!”
- “Now guess the letter of the alphabet corresponding to this number. That is, if you get 1, then this is the letter A; 2 - letter B and so on."
- “Think of a European country that starts with that letter.”
- “For the 3rd letter of this country, wish for a large animal.”
- When the viewer has followed all your instructions, simply say, “I know what you're thinking... it's the number 5 and the rhinoceros in Denmark!” This should work every time.
Guessing the magic vegetable. This simple trick almost always works. All you need are pieces of paper, pens and a few trusting spectators. To begin, place one piece of paper labeled “cucumber” in your left pocket, and a second piece of paper labeled “tomato” in your right pocket. Remember where you put each piece of paper. You're ready to start focusing:
- To begin, distribute paper and pens to all interested viewers.
- Ask them to do some simple math calculations, such as multiplying 2 by 2, dividing 10 by 5, adding 3 and 3, and so on. You can tell it's preparatory stage before mind reading.
- Then say: “Quickly write the name of the vegetable!” Make sure people do this as quickly as possible; don't let anyone think too long.
- Call casual viewer and ask them to say the written down name of the vegetable.
- If he says “cucumber,” pull the piece of paper that says “cucumber” out of your left pocket. If he says "tomato", pull out the piece of paper with the word "tomato" written on it from your right pocket. Tell the audience that your ability to read minds is so advanced that you were able to predict what they would write before the trick itself began.
- People in Russia choose one of these vegetables in most cases. If the person doesn't name one of these two vegetables, then you'll have to quickly move on to another trick! If you live in another country with different common vegetables, you'll have to look for your own "magic vegetable."
Guess the name of a famous person. This is a fairly simple trick, but may take a little time. All you need is a hat, about 10 spectators, a pen, something to write your prediction on, and as many sheets of paper as there will be people present. Here's what you should do:
- Ask a member of the audience to name a celebrity.
- Write the first name on a piece of paper and throw it into the hat.
- Ask others to name celebrities.
- Pretend that you are writing down each name, when in reality you will only be writing down the first name over and over again. This is something that takes practice.
- When the hat is full, ask someone from the audience to help you.
- Say you can predict what name he will pull out of the hat. Of course you will predict the first name. Write it on a board for everyone to see.
- Ask the spectator to take any piece of paper from the hat. All viewers will see that the first name is written there and, lo and behold, you made the correct prediction!

"Button commands"
The magical experiment begins with demonstrative filling of a transparent glass with mineral water or light soda. Movements must be made smoothly so that the fizz does not spill on the table.

We wait two or three seconds and again command, looking into the glass: “Get down!” The button will fall to the bottom immediately or after a couple of seconds. This amazing trick will not leave guests of any age indifferent.
Secret: Hocus Pocus does not need to be prepared specially, nor does it require long training. The button rises and falls due to mineral gases. They pick it up and release it alternately due to chemical interaction with oxygen. The young fakir needs to select the weight and size of the button in advance, and work out the length of pauses between commands. The experiment can be shown to guests at the dacha, when going out into nature, in a cafe - wherever there is a glass of soda.
