Question by Mark B: What do you make a coin disappear in your hand?
I’m a huge fan of magic and I was trying to do that trick where there’s a coin in your hand then it disappears and ends up in the other hand, or behind some ones ear?

If you know what I’m talking about could you please tell me how it is done.

Thnx

they actually just transfer the coin to the other hand & hide the coin between two fingers, close to the palm. you need to do it very quickly & practice hiding it while distracting the audience/viewer — keeping their gaze fixed on the first hand. make motions with your hands [abracadarbra, etc...] to distract them.
with a little bit of practice, this should be an easy trick to perform.

also check out some of the magic sites — go to search engines & enter some key words — there are sites that disclose tricks.

all the best & have fun )

Question by Mercury Pearl: Fishing in Pet Society tips or tricks?
Any tricks for the fishing game in pet society? I keep losing all my food/money because I just can’t seem to keep a fish on the pole. I try to pull it in when it’s not “struggling” but at the last second it still seems to get away. I’ve lost so many coins!
Any tips or tricks?

Best answer:

Answer by CB 241
at the first time your food get into the pond, click and hold your pet and the bait will come straight to you. Then, while the fish or something is struggling, release your mouse click / don’t reel. do that several times then you’ll get your fish or something. and don’t forget to add me on facebook. lifewasgood@hotmail.com or Aditya Risamasu.

Question by Scotty: How do I start to perform magic?
One thing I’ve always wanted to do is magic tricks. But not huge, grand, shows. I’m talking like little coin tricks or pulling a pen out of your ear.

I learned one coin trick on my own, but the rest I’m either confused or my fingers aren’t fast enough.
How should I train myself to do coin tricks? What tricks should I start out with? Etc.?
Also, how do you do that thing where you flip a coin through your knuckles really fast? Is that just practice over time?

Best answer:

Answer by gttlrs
Maybe start off with the matrix or some cups and balls.

The coin tricks are all over the internet..check the links I provided. Also check on youtube, there are lots of simple magic tricks there and also explanations ..

My boyfriend is a professional magician and you are welcome to drop by our blog and ask him questions. I am sure he will be willing to help.

Have fun!

Question by 28064212: What are simple and interesting ways to keep children entertained (card/ magic tricks, games, etc.)
I work at a daycare, and at times, those children are a handful. I’m looking for ways to get them to quiet down for a few minutes, or to be entertained. I’m mostly interested in simple card or “magic” tricks that I know they would love. Basically, any ideas would help.

Answer by Kyle N
magic tricks will only last so long and they’re not always easy to do

i would find some good group activities
that way there’s not a singled one that wanders off
try making a fun charades game with popular kid-friendly characters
or teaching them to make a non-cooked food
the food making will be something they will be active in
feel involved in
be proud of
and get a reward to see their efforts in

movies
story telling with picture books (unless they’re too old)
u can even try looking up some common stories most people know online to tell urself
act out each character and give each a personality

try setting up a clue game
like if u have a stuffed animal that’s popular that everyone can recognize
hide it
and tell them snuggles (or whatever) has gone missing and u need to work together to find it
make-up clever witty ransom notes or clues or whatever to keep em occupied

i don’t know how old they are so maybe half of these will work?

Question by CrazyNutmeg!: Does the old coin attached to the string trick on vending machines work?
Anyone done it?

Best answer:

Answer by JC4PTMC
No. It doesn’t work for me. The machines drop the coin into a slot that it locks its so that coins only coming from above can enter…

took me forever to drill that hole
