It's important to practice how you'll talk to those watching you do a magic trick because you're going to want to distract them a little, honestly. This is because they'll watch you and not your hands, which is where you'll do your “trick.” Hopefully, if you've practiced enough, they'll never see you do the actual trick that makes the whole think look like magic, in other words.
It's also very important, when performing magic tricks, to never, ever give away the secret of how the magic trick really works. This helps to make it mysterious and it even helps to make it more magical than it will be if you gave the secret away. Another important part of doing magic is to try to avoid doing the same magic trick in front of the same people who just saw the trick. It can be easier to figure out the trick when it's seen over and over, after all.
Another good thing to remember is that the audience or the people watching you do the trick should be seated throughout all the magic tricks being done by you or by a magician. Some tricks work better when people watching them are seated and looking at the magician rather than wandering around, getting a view of the tricks from different angles. Magic tricks work better when they're done in a controlled, and “magical,” way.
Many professional magicians, who perform magic tricks every day for a living, say that the best (and some of the easiest) tricks to do are those in which the magician borrows something from an audience member. That's because it can make it seem like the magician hasn't had time to do something sneaky or tricky to the item, like a coin or a pair of glasses, for example.
Today, the Internet is the best place to go to find just about any magic trick one might like to learn to do. They can be as simple as using a coin in a special way or as complicated at making a whole jet airplane disappear. Some are very cheap to purchase and others can cost thousands of dollars.
