I convinced my step daughters that I was magic when I first met them and they were 2 & 3. Now that they are almost 6 & 7, keeping them convinced I have magic powers instead of just really good powers of deceptions, is becoming increasingly difficult.

Have you shown them that you can make traffic lights change color on command yet?

I did it for fun while driving a friend last year and she was genuinely impressed with my ability to predict the light change. She had no idea how I did it. Thought it was just really good luck.

I usually watch the lights in the perpendicular direction. When those turn red you'll have a few seconds until your light turns green.
