Your hand is placed inside a common paper bag or trash can. You then read the mind of a child as they think of a number between 1 and 5. After they reveal the number to the class ,the hand is removed to reveal the number they were thinking of. You read their mind.
Use this trick to show that God likes to use the ordinary to do extraordinary things. This trick works best with younger kids.
8.) Mr. Wizard
A friend whom you refer to as Mr. Wizard leaves the room. Children then choose an object or two in the room. When Mr. Wizard returns he is asked about a number of objects in the room. He then reveals that he knows what the chosen objects are.

11.) Pick a Card 2
A volunteer chooses any one of 20+ cards. They show it to the class, and place it back within the deck. You have not seen the card but, after shuffling the deck a few times you can fan them out and pick out the exact card. The volunteer can show it, whisper it, or think about it.

12.) Pick a Card 3
Five cards are placed before a volunteer. The volunteer thinks about one of the cards while you read their mind. After placing a card face down on the table the volunteer reveals their choice.

Four coins are placed face up on a table. After one is chosen you reveal that you knew the choice in advance and that you wrote it down earlier in the day. You then show them the note which was sitting folded next to the coins the whole time. It says the name of the coin they chose.
You can keep this trick in your wallet to impress friends or strangers any time. Use this trick to show that God knows the future in advance and He has written it down for us in the Bible. But with God, it is no trick.
14.) The Cut Rope
A long rope is cut in half and then tied back together. After saying a prayer the knot disappears from the middle of the rope and the rope has been completely repaired.

17.) Ticket to Heaven
An ordinary piece of paper is folded and then cut twice. The cut pieces spell out the word HELL. The big piece is then unfolded to reveal a cross.
Use this trick to tell a story. There really is no Ticket to Heaven. We must accept what Jesus did for us on the cross. (Story included)
18.) Water to Wine
A clear glass is filled with water. The water turns red right before their eyes.
