Science of Magic


							
Shows & Workshops
Duration: 60 mins
Suitable For: KS2

The Science of Magic is designed for up to 60 children.

Where did the water go? Why didn’t that fall over? How did he know which one I picked? When will she get wet? How could an egg be taught to swim?

Working scientifically, children try to figure out the science behind a series of amazing magic tricks. They will be puzzled and intrigued, have their observation skills tested, consider carefully what they already know and think creatively. They will learn to never trust a magician, how to make a biscuit tin roll uphill and what keeps babies’ bottoms dry.

This ever-popular show covers a wide range of scientific principles, and engages everyone with the mysteries of magic to explain.

Our experienced team will put together a full or part-day programme of shows and workshops that fits into your school timetable and that allows sufficient time to set up, reset or clear away. The programme is tailored to each school and can usually include a mixture of activities for different Key Stages. A small number of activities may require two staff members, but we can run two streams of activities simultaneously with an additional member of staff.
