Birthday Party Fun!

I can make their next birthday one they'll always remember!

Birthday parties are my favorite kind of show!

(The more I ham it up, the more they laugh!)
    A lot of magicians don't really care for them and they say things like, "The kids are too close!" and "It's too informal, they're hard to control!"
    Or..."They don't appreciate my cool sleight-of-hand skills!"
    Or even..."They're just too young to "get it!"
   I say they should head for 'Vegas and leave the kids to those of us who understand them!   

- They love the one-on-one participation! -

    They all want to be part of the show!   It's that close interaction that makes my kind of magic so fun and personal.   From hearing their their toes squeak to waving the magic wand, they are involved in my show.

   Every group is different and I'm sensitive enough to see that, for some, just wiggling their fingers and saying the magic word is enough.  And I respect that.

   But I have to tell you, it always brings a smile when that shy little girl or boy in the back row raises a hand and wants to help me with the last trick.  Then I know I've done my job well!

- The fun is just as important as the magic! -

    My goal is to make sure the children have as good a time as possible!  To surprise them with a magical ending is just the icing on the cake.

   It doesn't matter if we have six kids or an entire classroom, they always have a good time, literally from start to finish.   Control problems are never a issue since I know just how to channel their energy into the laughter that fills our shows.

   Experience really does count!



- Age appropriate programs! -

   Three and four-year-olds are sometimes a little unsure when they're in a new situation.  They need a gentle touch to enjoy a show without being frightened but, once you get them giggling, keep that camera rolling!  You won't believe what a good time we have!

   The five and six-year-olds get a real kick out of the fast-paced magical skits we do.  Sometimes, I "seem" to have a bit of trouble making things work and then they're the heroes that make the magic happen.  Wait 'till you hear the cheers!

   Seven and eights are more sophisticated and can appreciate the magic in the show, as well as the humor that the little ones miss.  Not to mention how much they love doing that "dangerous" trick with a very brave helper!




- Magical fun for the older ones! -

   Unlike a lot of entertainers, I actually enjoy birthday parties for 8, 9, and 10 year olds (and up!)  That's because I zero in on their interests with my hands-on magic workshop!   It's an hour-long class of magic, in your home, where they learn how to fool their friends and family with tricks using cards, coins, ropes, and more.

   With the Harry Potter movies, interest in magic has never been higher.  I explain how we can use our illusions to surprise, amaze, and impress the people we know. What a great self-esteem builder!  I supply all materials and they each go home with their own magic wand and custom magic kit!   You won't need goody bags with this party!




- Planning a teen birthday party? -

    Give me a call to find out how I adapted my comedy stage hypnosis show to make it perfect for small teenage birthday parties. Even if you're only inviting 10 or 15 teens, I have a program they'll talk about (and laugh about) for years. Read more here and then call me for details.



- Parents are happy, too! -

    Whether it's a wonderful thank-you note, a glowing referral, or a "little something extra" in my check, Moms and Dads let me know, every week, that I'm doing a good job.   I'm proud of the reputation I've earned and I'm proud of the work I do.



- Programs to fit your budget! -

    Don't let the economy spoil your child's special day! I offer both 30 and 50 minute shows that are filled with fun and laughter. Keep that camera handy, you'll find plenty of photo ops!

    Because I do shows across a wide area, it's easier to give a quote by phone. You can call with confidence because I treat people with respect. No sales talk. No pressure. Ever.




- Book your special date early! -

    Once again, a last-minute call is always worth a try but it's best to plan ahead.  Make a note on your calendar, about a month and a half ahead, to "Call Jerry The Magician, 860-868-2542" and then we can go over the party and show details, always with no obligation.   If I'm on the road, please leave a message and I'll get right back to you!

   I look forward to making your child's next birthday both fun and unforgettable!
