The release of new films about the world of Harry Potter has once again awakened a wave of interest in his paraphernalia, in particular the magic wand. And I figured out how to make one at home using regular paper, glue and some paints. All my steps are illustrated to make it easier for you to understand.

Spells

One of the lessons at the school of witchcraft and wizardry, which ordinary schoolchildren around the world sigh so dreamily about. And not schoolchildren either. It is during Spells that young magicians learn to wave a magic wand correctly, while simultaneously pronouncing special magic words. The results of such manipulations can be stunning.

What to gift:

Magic wand

This is, of course, not a real magic wand, but if you believe in something very strongly, then everything will definitely come true. And waving a wand can be turned into a ritual for fulfilling wishes.

Astronomy

One of the subjects at Hogwarts School of Wizardry, which mainly takes place on the roof of the astronomy tower. Students observe celestial bodies through telescopes and make sketches of maps of the starry sky - everything is like that of ordinary people, that is, Muggles.

What to gift:

Telescope

A telescope is undoubtedly a must-have for exploring the night sky. Both for a wizard and for a novice astronomer without any magical abilities.

I want to give

Star map

There's no point in looking through a telescope if you don't know what to look at. The star chart shows the conventional outlines of all the constellations and the names of the brightest stars, which, among other things, also glow in the dark, creating a magical atmosphere.

I want to give

Ancient runes

A very difficult subject at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to study ancient writing. And, perhaps, you need to be Hermione Granger to agree to study runes on a voluntary basis.

What to gift:

Tales of Beedle the Bard. Rowling J.K.

Fairy tales on which many generations of witches and wizards grew up. As you know, fairy tales were originally written in runic, but the clever Hermione Granger translated them into a language accessible to us.

Herbology

Herbology in a magic school is something like our botany, only the plants studied there are mainly magical. During classes in special greenhouses, young sorcerers learn the magical properties of herbs, the features of their growth, care and collection.

What to gift:

Smart Plants Research Kit

An interesting experiment that allows you to visually study the process of plant growth and instill in young researchers a love of nature.

I want to give

Gardening gloves

In the greenhouses of the school of wizardry, all students must wear protective dragon skin gloves for safety reasons. It is unlikely that you will be able to get these in the Muggle world, but gardening gloves with claws are a completely practical and original option.

Defense Against the Dark Arts


Image source: www.kinopoisk.ru
A lesson in which students are taught to defend themselves and resist dark magicians, forbidden spells and all kinds of evil spirits (vampires, werewolves, boggarts, dementors). There are enough negative personalities even in times of peace, so this is a very important and mandatory discipline for wizards.

What to gift :

The Wizarding World of JK Rowling. Dark Arts. Artbook

The most dangerous wizards, forbidden objects, Death Eaters and He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named - all about the dark side of the world of magic, the history of films and characters, and many, many interesting magical trivia.

I want to give

Boxes for sweets

If you are organizing a children's party, then it is customary to leave small gifts with souvenirs or sweets for little guests. The boxes can be made in the form of the main characters of the Harry Potter film or in the form of a suitcase, a parcel and a cage with an owl. See templates and master class below.

Potions


Image source: www.kinopoisk.ru
Potions making is an academic discipline at a school of magic that studies various potions, decoctions and infusions, methods of their preparation and the properties of individual ingredients.

What to gift:

Board game

An exciting game based on Potions lessons. You collect the necessary ingredients, such as dragon's claw powder, leech juice and dried figs, create witchcraft potions and potions and try to beat your rivals in the fight for the title of Potions Master.

I want to give

Cocktail set

The process of creating magic potions and elixirs in real life is vaguely reminiscent of mixing cocktails. Of course, you won’t be able to prepare a polyjuice potion or a potion of invisibility this way, but something like an elixir of joy, a calming balm, a stupefying tincture and a chatty potion is easy. The main thing is to take into account the age of the recipient.

I want to give

Test tubes

Every self-respecting Potions Master always has a couple of empty vials with him, just in case. Yes, and magical elixirs must be drunk from something (see above).

Divinations


Image source: www.kinopoisk.ru
In divination lessons, young magicians study all kinds of fortune telling, learn to interpret signs and phenomena, and try to look into the secrets of the future, present and past. Fortune telling by hand, celestial bodies, Tarot cards, crystal ball, coffee grounds and tea leaves, as you know, is practiced in our world, so you won’t find anything new or unusual here.

What to gift:

crystal ball

Suitable for those who see signs in everything and have a good imagination, because otherwise it’s not easy to “see” something inside the sphere.

I want to give

Tarot cards

A gift set consisting of a book and the cards themselves. A novice magician-seer will be able to find in the book everything that is possible and necessary to know about the Tarot. And for those who, like us, don’t understand anything about this, it’s just a deck of cards with beautiful pictures.
