Making a room full of children happy and captivated - that is what it is all about. In the Hocus Rookus show I don't stand in front of the children, but I do it WITH them: kids on stage, screaming in amazement, and parents and guardians laughing just as hard. Cheerful, interactive and from beginning to end touching, with strong Magic.

I’m Hocus Rookus, a children’s magician with over 10 years of experience and a cheerful, clown-like style. My interactive children’s show isn’t one where kids just sit quietly and watch—it’s an adventure they’re right in the middle of. Kids get to come up on stage, help perform magic tricks, and experience that “Huh, how is that even possible?!” moment together. And since I also perform magic for adults, I amble parents, teachers, and chaperones at the same time. Everyone in the audience is on the edge of their seat.
Before I made this my career, I studied psychology (MSc). You can tell: I have a keen sense of how to engage a group of four- to twelve-year-olds, knowing exactly when it’s time for a joke and when it’s time for wonder. As a result, their attention stays focused from start to finish—even with a large, boisterous group. And the communication beforehand? Quick, clear, and collaborative, so you don’t have to worry about a thing.
The result is always the same: smiling faces, children who feel special for a moment, and adults who get to be kids again, if just for a little while.
You don’t have to take my word for it:

"He did a perfect job at the Spring Festival in Helmond. He connects with the children and captivates kids ages 4 through 12. Communication is seamless. All I can say is: he’s a TOP magician."
— Rene van Riet, Spring Festival Helmond (★★★★★ Google)


“We thoroughly enjoyed Teun the magician, who put on a wonderful show at our school party with surprising tricks and lots of interaction. Both students and parents were enthusiastic and watched in awe.”
— FC de Kikker, school party (★★★★★ Google)


"For over an hour, he kept twenty children captivated and happily engaged. There were so many smiling faces. We were absolutely delighted."
— Pargol Kavandi, children’s party (★★★★★ Google)

What kind of event?
The Hocus Rookus show is perfect for elementary schools and school parties, after-school programs and childcare centers, libraries (including a special program for Children’s Book Week), children’s parties, family days, and festivals. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor settings, from a small group to a full audience.
What you get:

An interactive magic show where the children themselves are the stars.
Optional balloon figures as a fun finale.
We’ll always check in with you beforehand to ensure the show fits seamlessly into your schedule.
A performer who keeps the entire group—kids and adults alike—engaged.
Performances available in Dutch, English, or Portuguese.

You can also book the Balloon Game Show on top of this. I’ll hand out about 10 balloons to all the guests, but they can win them by playing fun games. Depending on the size of the group, this can provide about 20 to 30 minutes of extra entertainment after the show for just 200,- extra. (Option 2 in the choices)
