Have your friends scratching their heads in wonder as you perform this mysterious magic trick.

two toothpicks
cloth napkin with a hem

SOMETIMES WE USE MATERIALS THAT REQUIRE ADULT SUPERVISION…LIKE SCISSORS SO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE FRIENDS AND FAMILY AROUND WHENEVER YOU DO MAGIC TRICKS!

  1. Place one toothpick inside the hem of the napkin. The toothpick should slide easily into one of the corners.
  2. Lay the napkin flat on the table. Show it empty.
  3. Place a toothpick in the center of the napkin, then fold the four corners inward to wrap the toothpick inside. Make note of which corner has the hidden toothpick and watch where it is placed in relation to the 'main' toothpick.
  4. Reach through the napkin 'package' and locate the hidden toothpick within the folds. Show the spectator that the toothpick is inside.
  5. Ask the spectator to feel the toothpick, then break it in half.
  6. Wave your hand over the napkin and snap your fingers.
  7. Open the napkin to reveal the toothpick is completely unharmed!
