September 1, 2021 - I started by using the leftover pumpkins we had around the house from Halloween and Thanksgiving (Henry’s birthday is at the end of November). Pumpkins are Potter-ish, right? I added in some star garlands that I had from our New Year’s Eve stash and spread them around the house. And the only other decoration I made was the floating broomsticks! I had this idea that I wanted to have brooms floating around like they were flying. I loved how they looked, and I made them for free! Here’s a quick DIY for the brooms.

This was a really fun party activity for the kids! Take a look at our DIY magic wizard wand tutorial for more details on how to make your own, and where to get the supplies. After the lesson, we let the kids unwind with a fun game of Quidditch. We made the goals from smaller hula hoops attached to inexpensive tomato stakes. We used the quaffle that Little Jo bought when we visited The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, and we provided some ordinary straw brooms for the kids to "ride".

Everyone knows the magic of the Sorting Hat in the Harry Potter books, but the magic of this Sorting Hat cake is something else.

r/harrypotter on Reddit: Harry Potter Themed Birthday Party Ideas Wanted
April 28, 2024 -
Hello,
I am turning 18 in a couple of months and have decided to throw a Harry Potter themed bonfire party. I am inviting no more than 10 people, so it'll be a pretty small evening gathering.
I already have an idea for the basics, such as a tablecloth, plates, balloons, cupcake toppers, etc. I am not particularly great at planning things, so I am struggling a bit with some stuff.
I want to have party favors and snacks that are on theme, though the main course is going to be bbq with some classic sides (mac n cheese, things like that), but I want to have some snacks for before and after. I found some Bertie Bott's Every Flavor of Beans on Amazon, as well as a mold for Chocolate Frogs, though I may just get the pre-packaged ones. I was also thinking of getting some temporary tattoos for party favors.
I've seen some House fruit skewers, but a guest is allergic to pineapple, so I believe that's out of the question. I have also heard of the cheese broomsticks, which may be a smart-ish idea. I also considered using cheese for Hufflepuff on a skewer, but I'm still unsure (cheese, green grapes, red apple, and blueberries, maybe?).
Do y'all have any more suggestions for themed party favors or snacks for some 16-18 year olds from GA at a bonfire? Or any advice on how to run the party smoothly?
Any and all advice and suggestions are wanted.
EDIT: Some of the guests are not very into HP, they're just friends I want to be around to celebrate the milestone of adulthood.

You could make butterbeer My mother found a great recipe for it if you want?

Make your own butterbeer. Fold origami patronuses. Patroni? Like cacti? Pepperoni. Pepperonuses. Swap pineapple for lemon. Sprinkle it with sugar so it won’t taste as sour. May opt for mango too. Or pretend Hufflepuff doesn’t exist. Don’t worry, they are used to it. Buy a talking sorting hat and have sorting ceremony. Do house themed games like riddles for Ravenclaw. “What lived longer, the ghost or the poltergeist? A: a non-being can never have been.” Wonder where I’ve heard that one. Sadly I don’t have my remembrall with me. Trivia quiz. But make it difficult. Any ordinary questions are too easy. “According to Dumbledore, what is his single most proudest achievement? A: getting his own chocolate frog card.” Have a movie marathon. Or just watch Azkaban. Or whichever one you want. Bake Hagrid’s infamous buttcake. Make your own pumpkin juice. Make your own exploding bonbons. Just look up a recipe, it’s quite easy.
