Upcoming Events
I have been asked more than once about what a birthday magic show for children involves. My presentation is highly visual featuring simple but great magical illusions that children ooh and ahh in wonder when they see them performed. The show usually averages 30 to 35 minutes (time is flexible) which is about the maximum length of a child's attention span for magic.
Volunteers will be needed along with an opportunity for the birthday child to help the magician in some special ways. Lots of guaranteed silliness and laughter always happens. A birthday magic show can be themed if so desired.
Here is a list of some of the tricks used: Instant Birthday Cake, Blowing out the candles, Magical Coloring Book, Birth Clock, Birthday Banner, Butterfly Production, Washing Machine Bag, Space Rocket Lesson, Making the Rainbow, Jelly Bean Surprise, Flower Extravaganza, Candy Store and the Never ending Water Bowl (Just a fraction of illusions available).
The grand hilarious conclusion lets the birthday child choose someone to be turned into a rabbit. After the magic show is over, I will make at least one balloon creation for all the children at the party along with a special balloon creation for the birthday child. The cost for a birthday party is $160. Mileage charges apply for destinations over 30 miles from Jackson, TN.
Please call Barry Scott at 731-803-9901 a few days before to schedule and provide me some needed details about the birthday party setting.
Over 45 Years of Magic, Ballooning, and Puppetry Experience
"I have been sharing my talents under the banner of Creative Family Ministries in the areas of magic, ballooning, and puppetry for almost 45 years with audiences of all ages and denominational backgrounds " - Barry Scott
As a retired minister, my specialty is presenting the Gospel to children in creative and unforgettable ways. I am just as comfortable in a secular setting as in religious venues. My programs, whether religious or secular, can vary in length to fit attention spans and time schedules. Each religious program illustrates scriptural truths through the use of visual aids. My content can be adapted to the age level of the audience.
One thing is for certain, if you bring Creative Family Ministries to your next event, you and your family will be in for a treat!

Have You Heard?
Through imaginative entertainment, such as the practice of magic, children learn more effectively. Kids are far more responsive to a message when it is given in a fun, interesting, and engaging way. Creative Family Ministries illustrates scriptural truths for audiences of all ages in a way that is sure to leave a lasting impression. While the word magic often carries some negative meanings, actually Bro Barry really offers creative object lessons, chemical changes, visual illustrations and mystifying illusions in an entertaining format. Only God does miracles; Bro Barry does tricks that aren’t so much magic as showmanship.
Call Creative Family Ministries today to provide your young person with a fun way to engage with the Gospel.
