The EZ Hat Loader

 Big Reactions from a Borrowed Hat

Turn a simple hat into a crowd-pleasing production, no rabbit required. With the EZ Hat Loader, you borrow a hat or use your own top hat, pour in a pinch of confetti for “magic fuel,” give a wave—and then the surprises start spilling out: a solid egg, bright silks, a never-ending garland streamer, even a glass of “milk.” It’s classic, colorful, and plays beautifully for kids shows and family audiences.
