Chinese New Year Prediction Magic Trick
Imagine being able to make a Chinese New Year Prediction when you visit your relatives and friends during the Lunar New Year visiting or even via zoom online.
What it looks like: Mr Bottle shows 16 pictures of items related to Chinese New Year on a 4 x 4 grid. A volunteer chooses a number from 1 to 16 to select one of them. The magician reveals the prediction to match his selection. As a surprise ending, the item appears magically from the flat piece of paper.
Shipping: Download / Printed + Assembled option available too.
Recommended age: 5 years and up. (Assembly of lantern recommended for 9 years old or older.)
Kien (more commonly known as Mr Bottle) designed this magic with the Maker’s mindset. Children will put together their very own magic props so they understand the principles behind the magic.
Mr Bottle is fascinated with papercraft and pop-up designs for many years and has created different magic based on templates used for visual communication. This is just one of the creative magic, which he has put out on the market so that little makers out there can learn and have a sense of satisfaction in trying to put this together.
The magic trick is designed to match the Chinese New Year theme. Of course, do not limit to just Chinese New Year, once you understand the principle, you can customise it to fit any theme: Christmas, Halloween or even for corporate events.
We provide customisation to include your company name, products, design, etc for an additional fee.
If your child enjoys this, you can also order our Magic set which has received many rave reviews from our customers.

Quite amazing! The lantern was challenging to make and needed an adult’s help. Once complete, my son could perform it with great reactions. Highly recommended.
