I'm looking for sites that have great kids show props. For instance I love Chance Wolfs site and have several of his props.
I'm not looking for standard props that are sold by everyone. I'm looking for creators sites ge3nerally. I also know of Randi Rain's site. Can you suggest others? |

AmazeKids comes to mind. Also David Kaye - Silly Billy - has a web site.

Keep in mind that there is already a pinned thread on the topic of Kidshow Magic Dealers, here in the Little Darlings area. It's 3 pages long (so far).
Magic Café thread titled... Is there a shop that sells kids magic tricks only? Are you starting this new thread because you feel that the info on the pinned thread is now out of date, or is incomplete? Or perhaps you didn't realize there was a pinned thread on this topic? - Donald

Second what Donald said. But since I'm here, I have found a few things from Practical Magic that are either not sold from US dealers or made differently/better than what is here. Also Tommy James at tommyjamesmagic.com has WOOOOOOONDERFUL products and great video demos of products for children's magicians. Jef at kandumagic.com is also one of my favorites, and if you like to put your spin on truly imaginative pieces, buy any/all of Christopher T. Magician's (Christopher Barnes) books. Wealth of info there.

P.S. Failed to mention Roy at Jamstone Magic, also a contributor to some unique children's magic products to the community. And also to say that Kandu Magic will relaunch their website on April 1. (Not a fool's joke, and also not an employee, just a customer and fan.)

Both Chance Wolf & Silly Billy have great effects that play big. Main difference is: Silly Billy's---Packs flat. Chance Wolf's---Do NOT pack flat. In fact you'll probably need a whole extra 'suitcase'. (and no, that's NOT meant as a rip on Chance, I own 3 of his effects & love them)
One more thing, if you see an effect you really like on Chance's site and it's available-----GET IT. RIGHT THERE & THEN!!! His products have a habit of going out-of-stock for loooong periods. Another upshot of Wolf's products: great resale value.
Everybody wants to beleive.....we just help them along.

Jef Eaton at Kandu Magic offers great service and tricks that involve kids with slapstick and byplay. You can't beat them. Scott Green and Practical Magic also come to mind, as do Mike Bent, Sammy Smith, and David Ginn. Wolf's Magic also has some great tricks for kid shows, like the ABC Recumbobulator (now in a 2.0 version) and the "out of production" Blow Yur Stack. But I agree with Mighty Fool that you have to lug Chance's tricks in ATA Cases or special crates. I like Silly Billy and Tommy James for younger kids. For "family shows" and older kids (tweens and teens), I think Robert Baxt, Cody Fisher, Bill Abbott and Paul Romhany offer great stuff.

I am very sorry to see that Derek Rutt is out of business. He used to make some great comedy kid show items.
