Birthday Party Magician

We’ve mentioned birthday party themes a couple of times here, but never have we mentioned a magician themed party. But that’s because no one has those anymore, right? Those are as out of date as relay race parties in the backyard, right?
Wrong! We attended a birthday party tonight, and it was our first party with a magician. The kids LOVED IT. They had a blast! They were entertained, they sat still, got a kick out of the bunny (yes, there was the cliche live bunny), and loved the animal balloons that they got to take home.
The magician seemed to want to share the messages of “no smoking” and “rah rah America!” to the kids, which was just kind of odd, but I’m not sure the kids even noticied. They were too dazzled by the magic cape, the disappearing flags, and the small bunny who never grew because he smoked when he was younger. (Yes, that really was part of his anti-smoking message.)
What are some more traditional parties that work well with your kids and their friends?
