Mouth coils are long, colorful paper streamers that are concealed in a small ball load. They call them "Mouth Coils" because some magicians pull them from their mouth. I don't like to encourage kids to put anything in their mouth, so I probably wouldn't do that. You could also pull them from a hat or pretend to pull one from a kid's ear. The hat coils can be placed in a hat, so when you turn it upside down they spill out. I think you just throw the streamers.

I'm looking forward to hearing creative, easy ways to use these. I get so used to performing the same tried and true tricks again and again that I forget about all this cool stuff I've picked up at conferences.
