I have indexed each magic below so you just to click on the links to navigate to individual magic (may not work for the YouTube app).
I have also given ratings to each. The first being the easiest and last the most difficult.
Learn magic step-by-step
For me, I will also bring magic around for my kids so they can perform whenever possible. (I use a points system to encourage them to practise and perform, but I will share more later.)
- Start off by asking them to perform in front of the mirror or record their performance and review. (Teach them empathy by telling them that magician’s view is different from the audience’s view.)
- Perform for family
- Perform for friends (even online!)
It is even possible for your 2-year-old to do the easiest with supervision. For older kids, I suggest you progress slowly from the easiest to the hardest.
- Don’t attempt to learn everything in a day!
- Let them do the preparation themselves to build independence. (One of my inspirations for this magic set was my daughter being able to do it on her own at 15 months. I expected her being able to perform the flower trick BUT I was surprised when she was able to ‘reset’ the trick. That is why we develop this magic set to kickstart interest in children and later, our magic course to further develop life values.)
- Encourage them even if they make mistakes.
- Ask them to perform the magic with stories and description to build up their confidence.
- React with emotions as they do the magic.
Feel free to share and tag us for your child’s performance on IG and Facebook.

Magic is probably the only art form which is multi-disciplinary; involving sciences, mathematics, psychology, theatre and many more! Our hands-on workshop is a fun session which the children will be learn not only magic, they will also take home other skills like confidence, creative thinking and presentation through a series of kinaesthetic activities.
Developed by a psychologist, the lessons are customised base on the children’s age group and learning ability. Craft and games are incorporated into the lesson to make it more interactive and fun! The children are also encouraged to put up a short performance at the end of the workshop to showcase what they have learnt.
Kien (more commonly known as Mr Bottle) also makes use of his experience in working with kids as well as his children, to come up with a system to teach magic to very young children weaving in life values like generosity, respect and perseverance.

Benefits of learning magic
- #awareness (how to stage the trick) to verbal reasoning (what to ask the audience) – that’s tons of brain muscles at work! Maximising these linguistic and cognitive abilities can support learning and enhance school performance and achievement.
- #boost confidence – Performing on stage can be an incredibly daunting experience at first. With time and effort, young children can be guided to perform in the presence of their friends and family, and eventually in front of an unfamiliar audience. With each step, your child builds a sense of triumph and achievement, gains self-confidence and internalise a belief that “I can do it!”. According to experts, positive self-esteem and self-confidence are the key ingredients to success in life.
- #Self-discipline – With magic, your little ones will invest their time and effort are the only ways to perfect their craft. There just aren’t any shortcuts in life! Not to mention that your child is learning to focus and rule out environmental distractions. Mental concentration is the key to mastering a new skill.
- #Up social skills – When rehearsing and performing magic tricks, your child learns to interact with their peers and family. Approaching someone, asking spontaneous questions, thinking on the feet are just part and parcel of being a good performer. There are endless conversational skills to be gained along the way!
- #Empathy – To pull off a performance, young children need to think through the eyes of the audience. They learn to understand how others think and feel. These heightened senses will enhance their social relationships.
