For building routines, you might want to check out books like "The Klutz Book of Magic" or "Mark Wilson's Complete Course in Magic." These usually have simple, engaging tricks that work well for children and won't break the bank.
As for where to get them, online retailers like Amazon or eBay are great options, and they often have used items at lower prices. Since you're in northern New England without access to magic shops, online shopping might be your best bet.
And hey, if you ever need help planning a party, I've had good experiences with event rentals & services. They've been a lifesaver for me in the past. Check out their website at sizzleyourevents.com for more info.
