We were at my Dad’s and it was tipping it down, so he whipped out a pack of cards and did a card trick with them. They were totally amazed by it and just couldn’t work out how he knew which card they’d picked!
I decided to video the ‘how to’ bit so you can try this card trick for yourselves if you don’t know it already. The kids can then do it on each other and their mates.
This is my first video and I have absolutely no idea how to edit them, so please excuse the roughness and the evening lighting 🙂
Fairy letters from a world of dragons (who set fire to your lunch by mistake), Mystery Gardens (with changing adventures inside), Magical Potion Fairies, Secret Underground Passageways, Magical Tree Bark, Time Travel … and more.

Wow, that’s such a cool little trick! Very easy to remember too. 🙂 Ray xx #HowToSundays
It really is isn’t it??
Great trick! This will definitely impress the kids! I used to love doing ‘magic’ as a child, but I have never tried card tricks, I used to have a magic trick where I balance a cup on top of a trick card that had a bit at the back that folded out to keep it upright. I don’t think my audience of family members were particularly impressed by my skills though.
Thanks so much for linking up to #HowtoSunday 🙂 x
Oh but that sounds perfect!! You’ve given me an idea – I wonder if our middle one would like a magic set / book of magic tricks for Christmas…Mmmmm!!!!
Yay! This looks great. Anything to entertain the kids on a rainy day. And Grandparents are best for coming up with little tricks like this. Thanks for linking up to #SundaysStars. I am so sorry it has taken me so long to comment. Hugs Mrs H xxxx
Grandpa always has a little something up his sleeve entertainment wise. I love the older generation!
Yay! Love a card trick! Will do this with the boys.
Oh and you have a voice!!! Yay for that!
