Hello everyone!
My younger cousins are both 2 (they turn 3 in like a week) and they love when I make spongeballs disappear and reappear somewhere else. I usually just show them the basic vanish and production and just do it over and over again.

Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone knows of any other tricks that work well for 2-3 year olds and that you can kinda just repeat over and over again for them.

I've been thinking about maybe swapping out the sponge balls for some sponge bunnies but I still wanted to see if there were any other tricks people know of because I can't think of anything.

This isn't for a formal show and I don't intend on ever putting together a show for toddlers. Just looking for a couple tricks I can show my little cousins.
Thanks guys!

I don't know if you perform the version where the sponge balls appear in there hands. But if not i highly recommend it. Also making cards shoot out of the deck is cool to. And magic coloring book is cool too.

Sponge balls is a great idea. They’re likely to start figuring out 1 becoming 2 and so on is cool so sponge bunnies is good. If the changing numbers doesnt do anything for them at least the rabbits would be cool. I’m sure Calebs suggestion of in the hands would be a winner too.

Basically that age appearances and disappearances are easy for them to follow. Maybe color changing silk. My youngest kids 4 and been enjoying cups and balls for at least a year…so your cousins are on the edge of that.

I don't know the technical name for them, but get those false fingertips with little lights in them. Kids eat it up. I bought a set of them and had to order another set right away to expand the options. While young kids can't quite track like, advanced card tricks, they sure can wonder over how you make a little green light fly around from hand to hand, in and out of ears, or even throw it to their parents if you get a couple extras. It was really fun to do for my own little cousins, and I have even gotten people as old as high school and college absolutely riveted with it

i agree here is the link for the red ones. I prefer them because you can pull them out of your phone by turning on and off the flashlight.

I guess for younger age groups, you should tell them you can make their sponge balls fly in the air. Just perform Tarantula or Spider Pen Pro to do the trick!
