  Nice, Simple Magic Set January 16, 2007 This set is well constructed and simply made in bright colors. I bought it for my six year old and he loves it. He and his friends like how simple the tricks are - they can do them without adult help or supervision. Adults may find the tricks a bit too simple but the kids enjoy them. Also, not too many small pieces, which was important to me because I have two other smaller children too.
  Great for Small hands December 6, 2006 22 out of 22 found this review helpful
We bought this set for my seven year old boy and we were a bit dissapointed. There are better magic kits out there for the price for older children. (Look at the Marshal Broden Kits by Cadaco). If you have a young child is is four and five though this is a great set. The tricks are easy to work and they are big for small hands. Anyone who has any magic sets or tricks though will find this too simplistic and not as exciting as many of the other kits.
  Great set for a young starting magician October 19, 2006 35 out of 35 found this review helpful
I gave this to my 6 year old for his birthday and he loves it. The tricks are very simple to learn and perform. The product description says that it has multiplying coins and a secret change bag, but it doesn't.
The set includes the following 4 tricks: 1- a "sword in the stone" trick where the child uses a secret ring to get the sword out of the stone. 2- a trick where the child can change the color of a string from white to red by pulling it through a wooden box/gadget. 3- an illusion box where items "disappear" when they are dropped inside 4- a trick with a box and a dice where the child can guess the side/color of the dice that an audience member has chosen.
Anyway, even though the tricks don't match the product description, I think the set is perfect for a 5-7 year old. (Any older, it may not be so great.) The set is wooden which is nice for durability.
  Magic Set July 12, 2006 29 out of 29 found this review helpful
I have always found Melissa and Doug products to be exceptional and well thought out creatively. This magic set is a perfect beginning for a child who wants to "do some magic". My [...] granddaughter has played with it and entertained family and friends. She is ready for another level which I will look for soon. I feel confident when I buy a Melissa and Doug toy item for its good value and the consistent quality of the product. Very child friendly!
