It's quick and dirty (when it comes to the tricks) but quite dry. My kids lost interest with it
quickly and asked if I could just teach them the tricks instead. I wanted to like it but the only
thing I found kid friendly about it was the kid tricks and props. Another reviewer said it's like
watching your grandpa teach magic... I'd agree if you're grandpa teaches magic while hitting on one
of your 20 year old cousin's girl friends. I can appreciate his zest for life, magic and young women
but I found it a bit uncomfortable to watch.
There are other beginner magic videos that are
more engaging for kids. My kids enjoyed this one more:
The Greatest Beginner Magic DVD Ever
featuring Oz Pearlman and Jessie Geneva
Coincidentally Jessie Geneva is the same woman
gramps is hitting on in this one.
