New Word: Prestidigitation

It's not everyday that I stumble across a new word that I've never heard of and it's even less likely that I'd find it while reading a children's book. So I thought I'd share.
Prestidigitation: sleight of hand, magic, hocus-pocus
I understand why they called the movie The Prestige now - although I really didn't think anything of it before now. Here's my question, can you use prestidigitation in your casual conversation sometime today?
