My son is very interested in magic. He is 10. Are there sites online
for kids that will talk about how to do magic tricks? Books would be
ok too. I tip $10 for good answers.

This is a very well-organized and high-quality response, but not too
overwhelming either in terms of information. The sites are very easy
to use and great for kids! I just couldn't find them -- how much time
did it take you to find these? My son will enjoy this a lot --  here
is a your tip, as promised for a great answer.

scholastic has two direct-to-home book clubs for kids ages 8-12 who
are interested in magic. each month, a kit of magic tricks and gadgets
will come to your home, accompanied by a book with step-by-step
directions for performing the tricks.

one club, "magic university," is online at http://www.scholastic.com/magic/

the other club, "the ultimate magic club," doesn't have a web site,
but you can join by calling customer service at 1-800-411-6706. this
second club has been created with an emphasis on simple, easy,
"push-button" magic that's amazing and impressive but doesn't require
a lot of skill or practice on the child's part. this second club also
comes with a DVD showing other kids performing the tricks in each
book.
