MasterMagic Magic Kit - Easy Magic Tricks for Children - Learn Over 350 Spectacular Tricks with This Magic Set - Ideal for Beginners and Kids of All Ages!

My eight year old son absolutely LOVES this kit!!! He’s played with it for a couple of hours already. Instructions are easy enough for him to read and understand on his own.

Satisfied. As described. Perfect for my 9 year old.

This is a great little kit. I ordered it for my son for his 7th birthday. He saw a free magic show at the library and of course the magician mentioned that he could be hired for birthday parties and so naturally, my son now wanted a magician at his. I explained to him that if I paid for a magician, we wouldn't have any money for the pizza, the piñata, the cake, etc. so we compromised that he would get a magic kit and put on his own show for his guests. Well in the end Liam the Magnificent liked being the magician even better because he gets to keep the kit and use it whenever he wants, but not only did he get to do the tricks, he really enjoys understanding how they work and he comes up with ideas for new tricks after understanding the idea of how things are done. His 9 year old sister enjoys them and even my friends' older kids thought they were cool. The broken pencil kit is top notch!! So good in fact that I thought I'd accidentally pushed too far a really broken the pencil the first time we did the trick. The instructions are ok, they could be better, I usually need to read them, and then show him how do the trick and a few I needed to follow along while I did the trick and took a few wrong turns. You definitely need to practice each trick once or twice to make sure you know how it will work, and smaller kids will NOT understand without help even if they are good readers. What I LIKE about the instructions is that they give suggestions on how to change up the trick, for example the disappearing box gives a basic trick of making a coin disappear, but then it gives a suggestion of filling the compartment with candy ahead of time and making that appear for your friends to each take a piece; however that is also how they claim there are so many tricks in the kit, each one has several variations. I bought this kit because the reviews said it doesn't rely on slight of hand, so a young one with stubby little fingers can do the tricks (no palming things). The plastic pieces all the tricks are made from seem strong, the only one that may be an issue is the magically appearing "flower" because it is made out of green and red feathers. So far it is intact, but I can see that shedding little fuzzy bits with too much handling, not losing whole feathers, just the pieces of fluff that make them up (if you've ever had a cheap Halloween feather boa you know what I mean). All in all I'm happy with the kit and for the price and the amount of tricks it comes with, it's great! I think that someone really put thought into this kit to choose tricks that are easy enough for a child to do, but fancy enough to be impressive. And while there aren't 350 tricks, there aren't even 35, there are enough for a fun magic show.

I used the kit with two different groups of kids this summer. One was a summer school group of fourth graders who each learned a trick along with some card tricks and mind reading tricks to do a show for our first-grade class. It was great for oral language development and public speaking. It went along great with our bunny class pet and "Magic Happens Here" theme. I also used it with my nieces and nephews aged 3-9 who used the kit to perform a show for their parents after a week-long vacation with me, wih some card tricks and mind reading tricks sprinkled in. It was an affordable purchase and so much fun. I do have to say though, I think the trick with the flower was missing a magnet. We could never get that one to work correctly, but otherwise, the tricks have differing levels of difficulty, so multiple ages can participate. It would work as well for older magicians, as the audience was left trying to solve the tricks and couldn't figure them out. Any age can perform magic!

I bought this kit as a Christmas gift for my grandson. To start, several pages in the instruction booklet were blank. Secondly, at least one of the tricks used a magic box that would not open. Some of the tricks seemed ok but it was spoiled by missing instructions and the box that would not open. Returned it.

My son got this as a Christmas gift and performed magic for our family gathering. I have to say it did appear easy and he’s 9 but I was curious and needed to see how it works so I’ve ruined it for myself. I definitely want to see if there is a more advanced one but I would recommend this to anyone who is interested.

This is a good set for beginners and kids. The tricks are varied. This was a Christmas gift for my 3 kids of different ages who all love to put on mini shows. They tore into it and fought over who could go first - a good sign. The coloring book is the best magic prop I've seen. I've only seen that offered with this kit, and that alone makes it worth spending the money. There's not a lot of downsides here.

Bought this kit to do magic with my 8-year-old grandson. He loves magic and this kit will help him to develop his skills. The only thing I am not sure of yet is the add to the secret online club. They say there are many resources on this site but have not been able to access it yet. Hoping that after I submit this review I can get to the free resources. I would advise the company to make it more clear how and when you get access to the club.

Perfect for my 9 yr old who was able to immediately pick up the tricks and do her own magic show.
