Childrens
Parties
Magic
Show
Beano arrives, blowing a big horn. After introducing
himself, he gives the magic hat and the magic wand to his first
helper, the birthday child.
A silk handkerchief then appears out of an empty box, and changes colour in an empty bag. Magic knots
appear on a rope, an egg becomes invisible, then turns into a fried egg. A glass of water is turned upside down,
poured into a newspaper, desappears and reappears. The children make beautiful colours appear on a colouring
book, then the pictures disappear and reappear; and we put spikes through a balloon without bursting it. I invite
a different child to do each trick and all the audience participates
vocally. This is followed by balloon modeling.
Show for the under 5s
Beano arrives with a guitar. We sing
«Bah! Bah! Black Sheep» and «Humpty
Dumpty», and he teaches
the children «The Mulberry Bush».
There follows some magic with the silk routine, the rope, the invisible egg and the glass, Toby the Teddy
Bear, on which we make a bow-tie appear, and the magic colouring book. I then make balloons for
everyone.
Balloon
modeling
A dog, a girafe, a squirrel, a bird, a bee, a swan, an elephant, a
rabbit, a parrot, a teddy bear, a monkey, a fish, a raindeer, a poodle,
a mouse, a horse, a dinosaur, a snail, an aeroplane, a caterpillar with
bullbles in it, an umbrela. Each child gets a balloon of their
choice, and I make a flower for the birthday girl and a motorbike
with five balloons for the birthday boy.
Games
They are easy to run, fun to play, varied, and suit every occasion. There are the musicals: chairs, bums and
statues, there is pass the parcel, grandmother’s footsteps, a circle game with a bell, a race with ping-pong
balls and straws, and a game with a big balloon.
