Me: So how did your magic show go at Vikki’s today?
D: Fantastical!
I got ready – they all sat down and went “Eeeee!” I did go all shy.
Then I said, “I need an audience for this one.” And I chose Amy.
Me: What did you get Amy to do?
D: She helped me undo the knot in the ribbon so I could do the trick where you do pick up the ribbon with both your hands and do a knot in it and not let go.
Me: How did the magic box trick go?
D: Good – All the children were tapping the wand on the box and when they opened it the ribbons were still there!
Me: So they didn’t know how you’d done it then?
D: No, they didn’t see me move the end of the box!
Me: That’s good they didn’t see – that’s the trick.
D: Yes, if the button was on the side and BIGGER, then they would see me do it. And if they say, “Why were you putting your hand behind the box?” I can say, “Just because I wanted to!”
