Science experiments with a magic-show twist

Jim Wiese frames 50 hands-on activities as apparent magic tricks, then connects the surprising effects to scientific ideas including chemistry, biology, gravity, and electricity. The projects use ordinary household materials and invite kids to investigate phenomena through demonstrations such as disappearing coins, a collapsing soda can, invisible writing, and moving cereal. Its format makes room for both performance and explanation: the “trick” supplies the hook, while the experiment points toward the science behind it.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Kids interested in science experiments and projects
  • Ages 9–12 who enjoy magic tricks and demonstrations
  • Families seeking household-material activities
