Emma grew up in the Land Without Magic, I don't think she could perform magic tricks as a child. Except for the Dragon (whose background is unclear) no one can use magic out of Storybrooke; not even Peter Pan, who was extremely powerful – and was not cursed, in case you argue that Emma escaped the Curse so that could be a reason.
