Our summer long program gives kids ages 7+ something to be proud of—building their own magic show from scratch—while giving you peace of mind and a plan that actually works.
Ready to trade screen time for showtime?
A 10-week online experience where kids learn the art of stage magic by building their own props and practicing one-on-one with a professional magician. All supplies are shipped to your door, and every lesson leads to their very own performance by summer’s end.
This was so popular in 2023 that we decided to bring it back in 2025!
✘ Another day lost to YouTube or gaming
✘ Sibling bickering while you're trying to work
✘ Daily routines that feel like chaos instead of summer
✘ Every “free” hour turns into another meltdown or mess
It doesn’t have to feel like this. BYOM gives your child something meaningful to focus on—online, yes, but guided, hands-on, and purpose-filled. And it gives you a little breathing room, too.
If summer’s already starting to stress you out, this is your move.
Kids build their own stage magic show—props and all—while learning focus, creativity, and performance skills along the way. Every week adds a new trick and a new burst of confidence. And because it’s one-on-one and fully guided, they actually stick with it.
The program is led by Head Magicians Annie and Brian, two seasoned performers and educators who’ve been teaching kids online for over five years. With deep experience in both magic and youth coaching, they know how to keep kids engaged, challenged, and proud of their progress.
After seeing the results from 2023’s summer program, we knew we had to bring BYOM back—better than ever.
The 10-week curriculum keeps your child learning and growing so you don’t have to plan every day from scratch, which means more calm and fewer “What now?” moments.
We ship all supplies right to your door so you’re never scrambling for materials, which means you get the magic without the mess.
Kids use cardboard, tape, glue, and creativity to construct full-size magic props so they can perform for a real audience at home, which means true ownership, confidence, and wow-worthy results.
This isn’t just another activity. It’s a full-on transformation.
Sign up for early access and be first in line for one of just 6 spots.
Once enrolled, we ship everything your child needs—so you’re ready, excited, and stress-free on day one.
Your child joins live, one-on-one Zoom lessons each week to learn new tricks, build their own props, and grow their skills with expert coaching.
At the end of the program, your child puts it all together into a full magic show—performed live for family, recorded for fun, or shared however they choose. It’s their moment to shine.
Every 90-minute session follows a consistent, kid-friendly rhythm:
By the end of 10 weeks, your child has a full magic show they’ve built from scratch.
She told me on the way home that she's usually really nervous in public or when talking to new people. But when she does magic, she's not nervous at all.

She has gained self-confidence, something all her own to individuate from her sisters, and cool friends and mentors. We can’t wait to do it all again and highly highly recommend their services!

Just a device with a camera that can be tilted to see the table top (laptop or tablet preferred), a stable internet connection, and a quiet space to spread out. No fancy lighting or stage needed—just enough room to practice and perform.
Absolutely. We’ve built BYOM to be inclusive, flexible, and respectful of different learning styles. Your child will be supported every step of the way.
This includes 10 weeks of 90-minute one-on-one instruction, a full magic kit, all supplies shipped to your door, and access to recordings. It’s a full experience—more comprehensive (and more flexible) than most in-person camps.
No problem! Every lesson is recorded and added to your private library, so your child can catch up anytime that works for your schedule.
Each week brings a new trick and new skills that build toward a full performance. That sense of progress keeps kids engaged—and we’re right there to keep them going.
Nope! Everything they need is in the box we send. You won’t need to shop for supplies or prep anything in advance.
