Performing magic with simple, everyday objects is cool! And Ryan Oakes is going to show you how to perform an amazing little trick with a quarter.

quarter

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 your quarter on the table. Place your fingers on top of the quarter and move it to the edge of the table.
  2. As your fingers reach the edge of the table, pretend to pick up the quarter with your fingers and thumb. The quarter will actually slide off into your lap as your hand smoothly continues to move. To be safe, keep your legs crossed firmly together to prevent the quarter from falling to the floor.
  3. Bring your hand up with your fingers facing the audience. Look at your hand as if you’re still holding the quarter. Keep your other hand on the table to show everyone that the quarter isn’t there.
  4. Dramatically squeeze and wiggle your fingers together and open your hand to make it look like the quarter has melted away!
