I have read many articles that kid's show magician's can learn from watching children's TV shows. I totally believe in this. For just a great example here is a short episode of Blue's Clue's:

As you can see, already in the first minute, he has already involved the "audience" by asking a question and has used the "look, don't see" principle.
As you can see, we can learn a lot from these shows. So I am just recommending that everyone just give it a shot.
Thanks, Drew

It's funny, if you feke searching for magic words to do an effect and come up with "meeska, mooska..", some or most of the kids will yell MICKEY MOUSE!
