Is anyone using these Kids Kards? If so...what do you think? From the promo -- it looks like they rock. Any thoughts?

I have them and I use them on occasion. However, the quality doesn't seem as good as a good invisible deck, and I have trouble keeping the cards in perfect condition.

I have them too, but haven't been using them much. Its a cool idea, but I'm not really sure what age group it is suited for. I think it goes right over the young kids heads, but find that it works ok on the 8,9,10 year olds.

I haven't used them in a couple of years. I used to use them in my restaurant work, and explain to the people that some of the children in a local daycare made them for me after a recent show. It was a good storyline that helped enhance the trick itself.

I love them. I use a story line where the kids from my hospital shows made the cards for me.
The concept works on adults just as well |

The cards have got children's artwork on them, but I don't think it's intended to be a children's trick is it? Thematically it's a color-changing deck (faces and backs) trick, and a location effect.
I wouldn't use it for children. |

I also use the "a group of schoolkids made these for me" line when performing. Great prop and effect(s).

Broke mine in over the Christmas season. Without exception, it got fabulous reactions. I am not too sure about the quality of the r**** and s*****, though. I like it and use it. But I don't know how long it will last.

You can always freshen up the R&S at home with a can of Testor's "Dull Kote", instead of throwing away the deck, but if you're thinking it's worn out and you want to toss it, send it to me!

Late to the party but wanted to add that I've had good reactions with these. Quality isn't too bad they hold up. Nothing that a little TLC can't fix. My patter includes that the kids at the hospital made these for me, which works well with my profession.
I'm actually planning to make a set a custom set as my kids really want to draw a deck for me. Let's see if this works |

My set has held up very well over the years. Maybe I got lucky, but I think it's the best rough and smooth deck I've every had (quality wise). I also love the routine. Really a very good product.
