Magical Moments in the Lives of Children

Kindness works a magic of its own, especially if the one performing it is truly invested in the act itself. I found an interesting article via Google news today.

Basketball coach Flip Saunders from the Detroit Pistons showed off his skills as a magician Monday, as part of the renovation program "Live, Learn and Play Center" at Eton Academy in Birmingham. Eton itself is a private school (kindergarten through high school) for students with learning difficulties such as dyslexia or ADHD. The Pistons-Palace Foundation renovated four rooms of the school with new learning facilities suited to the students' special needs, and had a number of small festivities to honour the occasion. Saunders did some simple vanishing tricks and spun a basketball on his finger, amazing his young audience.
