The Comeback Bee by Tommy James - Trick

A routine that is guaranteed to stir the kids into a buzzing frenzy!

You display the backs of five cards each with a picture of a magic hat.  Ask the children “What do magicians pull out of hats?” Of course they respond “Rabbits!” Turn the cards around and state that you have five different colored rabbits. There is a blue rabbit, yellow, red, green and . . . Oh no!  The children discover on one of the cards there is a BIG BEE, and they will let you know! You see the bee, place it aside, grab a fly swatter (not included) and give it a few whacks! The kids go bananas!

You now show four different colored rabbits. State that you will make one rabbit disappear when you say “Abra” and the kids shout “Cadabra!” But when you count the rabbits again another bee appears! Place the bee aside, grab the fly swatter and give it a few whacks. The children are in stitches!

You show THREE different colored rabbits. You attempt to make one disappear but, another bee appears! Grab the swatter . . . Whack, Whack, Whack!  This happens two more times until ALL the rabbits have turned into bees. You turn around to discard all the bees and . . .  there is another bee hanging on your back! The children are in a frenzy!

This is a high-energy trick with lots of excitement that really gets crowd buzzing! The cards  measure 5-1/2” high by 4-1/4” wide, printed in vibrant colors on 16pt card stock with a protective gloss finish. Complete with detailed written instructions with lots of photos as well as a private link to an instructional video to help make the learning process clear. Fly swatter not included.
