Children's Magic

Magic performed for an audience of children has developed and evolved over the years. In the earlier days, children were treated as young adults and they were expected to sit up straight and pay attention as if the magical performance was a class and they were merely polite, quiet observers. But children are a magician's most enthusiastic audience, and love to laugh and participate as much as possible. Specialists in children entertainment have learned to cultivate the natural curiosity and enthusiasm of children and play with their audiences.
