John LOVES magic. He has been enthralled with magic for quite some time. This year my parents got him a magic set for Christmas. A magic kit wouldn't be the same with out a tuxedo for the magician. So they got him one of those too. And what magician would go on stage without a lovely assistant? Not John. So Gus found the tuxedo we had from the Sir Topham Hat costume and rocked the assistant role.
See the serious magician and his box of crayons?
Ta-da! The crayons disappeared.
Now if only these two could make the mess in the house disappear.
John was invited to join the preschoolers of Mt. Zion for a magic show. I knew he would like this and was telling him all about magic shows. I wanted him to get excited so I reminded him of the Wiggles episode where Greg did a magic show. This got John excited, but for all the wrong reasons. When he got to the show he kept asking the magician where Anthony, Greg, Jeff and Murray were (the Wiggles guys). When John finally stopped asking and watched, he had a great time.
The kids waving hello with their belly buttons. To which John said, "I'm told I don't have a belly button."
Showing them they all have a magic wand...their finger. We'll see how far John's magic wand takes him.
John's favorite part was when the big magic wand kept falling apart.
All the kids loved when the big magic wand fell apart.
Yep, if two kids aren't bad enough, try getting 10 kids to look at the camera at the same time. This is as good as it gets folks.
The kids all had a great time. On the way home John just started laughing. When I asked him what he was laughing about, he told he was just thinking about the magic guy. So cute.
