Here's a couple of pics I took tonight of my 6 month old son, Connor. His onesie has a bowtie on it and thought it'd be fun to see him "perform"....

In the blurry one, he almost got them into his mouth! LOL

Ironic that you used a transformation deck as it is amazing how quickly kids transform before your eyes. Ours just turned 2 and the youngest will be 8 months tomorrow!

  • Pick a card, any card...no, not THAT card!

  • Facebook:
That's why I avoid performing for children under five years old.  They're more interested in eating the cards than watching the show!

Bear in mind as well that to a child that young, EVERYTHING is magic!  To them it would be no different than seeing a blender in action for the first time or hearing the jingle of keys on a keyring.

He really does look fixated on that Curator deck, doesn't he?

Since there's already an edible, all-chocolate Monopoly game, why not?  :))
