Hello, Yabadoo! Just wanted you to know how much the family enjoyed Mystica’s show in National Arboretum Canberra. It was AWESOME! Ethan enjoyed every second of it. We got to spend time and catch up with other parents while the children were busy getting entertained. Mystica did advanced tricks that even I couldn’t figure out! It was money well spent and the memories you made with us are priceless. Thank you! – Adrienne C., O’Connor 1928 Canberra
My son Caleb’s party was fantastic thanks to you! All our guests were fascinated by Frodo’s show. Frodo was so high-spirited, even my husband and I felt the happiness he was bringing in to John Knight Memorial Park. We are still getting compliments about the party! We’ll definitely see you again next year. – Adrienne L., Deakin 1928 Canberra
Dear Ravi,
Our Yabadoo magician Ben was worth every cent. He managed to entertain ten six year olds nonstop for two hours. They laughed, danced and participated in all the activities. There were no tears or arguments! He was sensitive to the needs of each child, including them in activities and modifying them if the kids showed signs of being uncomfortable. He was respectful of us, checking in with our requirements. He even helped us when we served lunch. We'd be happy to recommend Ben to others. Our daughter, Anastasia described her party as awesome!!
Regards
Anya
We have a fun magician game idea for your next party! It’s so simple – you can play this whilst waiting for your entertainer.
Magician’s Balloon Wand
Each kid gets one balloon and one wand. The children must keep their balloons in the air by hitting it with their wands. If a child’s balloon touches the floor, then they’re out of the game.

The last magician who keeps his/her balloon in the air wins!
You can also make it non-competitive by just letting them play until they get tired of it.
Are you also looking for a magician party favor idea that you can do quickly and easily?
Magician Party Favor

- Deck of cards
- Single-hole puncher
- Marker
- Black paper bags

Punch a hole on the black paper bag. Insert one end of the yarn into the hole. Now, punch a hole in one card from the deck. Insert the other end of the yarn, then tie both ends together to secure the card.

Use your marker to write the child’s name on the black paper bag, and you’re all set!
