#HarryPotterBookNight
HOGWARTS SCHOOL OF WITCHCRAFT AND WIZARDRY
Headmaster: Professor Albus Dumbledore
(Order of Merlin, First Class, Grand Sorc., Chf. Warlock,
Supreme Mugwump, International Confed. of Wizards)
Dear Reader,
We are delighted to invite you to celebrate our fifth
annual Harry Potter Book Night on February 7, 2019.
This year’s magical theme is Hogwarts.
Enclosed you will find inspiration and practical resources
that will help ensure your Harry Potter Book Night event
is a success.
This pack is filled with magical games and spellbinding
activities to help you host an enchanting event fit for
witches, wizards, and Muggles. We’ll help you plan
everything–from ideas on decorating your party space to
tips on giving your guests a proper wizarding welcome.
Have a magical night!
It is completely up to you whether you want to stick closely to the activities here or use them
as a jumping-off point. Whatever you decide, there are a few general things worth bearing in
mind:
• Harry Potter Book Night is all about passing on the magic of J.K. Rowling’s amazing books
to the next generation of readers, as well as celebrating with devoted fans. This year, our
theme—Hogwarts—incorporates ideas from all seven magical books in the series as well as
the companion books in the Hogwarts Library collection.
• The activities are intended for children aged 8–10, but don’t worry if you are working with
slightly younger or older children—we’re confident you’ll see ways to easily adapt the
resources in this kit and find there’s something for Harry Potter fans of all ages.
• We’re aware that you might be hosting anything from a group of 30 kids in a bookstore to
200 or more in a school setting. Again, we’re confident that you’ll have ideas on how best to
adapt the activities accordingly. With larger numbers, you could form smaller groups. Or
maybe you could create activity stations for the groups to move through during the course
of your event, where they can work to gain vital house points as they go!
• If you are celebrating Harry Potter Book Night as a school, turn to the bonus section of
this kit, where we have included suggestions specific to a school setting.
• This kit is intended to work for events that are free of charge and encourage community
participation.*
• Please feel free to photocopy any and all pages.

* The kit is intended for events that are organized and run by schools, community centers, libraries, and bookstores and which encourage
community participation. We ask that the events please remain non-commercial in nature. That means, for example, that your Harry Potter
Book Night event should be entirely free of charge. Furthermore, your event and, more generally, the Harry Potter properties, should not be
sponsored by or associated with any commercial or non-qualifying organizations. So, for example, if a business is supplying catering for your
event, that business’s logos and/or branding should not be featured on any materials relating to Harry Potter Book Night and it should not
in any way appear that such businesses are endorsed by or connected with Harry Potter, J.K. Rowling, or Warner Bros. While we very much
encourage you to get creative with your events, please note that we’re not granting permission for you to create and produce any new Harry
Potter–themed goods or services to sell at your Harry Potter Book Night. Any commercial uses of the Harry Potter trademarks and other
intellectual property would require separate permissions. If you’re unsure about a particular use or activity, please get in touch.

SEVEN TIPS FOR RECREATING
HOGWARTS IN YOUR EVENT SPACE
1. HOGWARTS HOUSE AREAS
Create common room areas for Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Slytherin, and Ravenclaw and decorate
them with house colors. You could recreate house crests or use images of each house’s symbol
as decorations.
Gryffindor
House symbol: Lion
House colors: Scarlet and gold
House ghost: Nearly Headless Nick
Common room entrance: Guarded by a portrait of the Fat Lady
Common room features: A cozy, circular room filled with
armchairs and the light from a roaring fire
Hufflepuff
House symbol: Badger
House colors: Yellow and black
House ghost: The Fat Friar
Common room entrance: Near the kitchens, hidden behind a
stack of barrels
Common room features: Decorated with hangings in yellow
and black. A portrait of Helga Hufflepuff, the house founder,
hangs above the fireplace
Slytherin
House symbol: Snake
House colors: Green and silver
House ghost: The Bloody Baron
Common room entrance: Behind a damp stone wall in the
dungeons
Common room features: A long, underground room with
strange water creatures floating past the windows

Ravenclaw
House symbol: Eagle
House colors: Blue and bronze
House ghost: The Gray Lady
Common room entrance: In a high tower. To enter, students
must answer a riddle or question posed by a door knocker in
the shape of an eagle
Common room features: A wide, circular room with arched
windows and a domed ceiling painted with stars
DID YOU KNOW?

H Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is located in a vast castle atop
a high mountain and was founded by two wizards and two witches: Godric
Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Salazar Slytherin, and Rowena Ravenclaw
H Term begins on September 1st and students usually reach the school on
the Hogwarts Express, which leaves at eleven o’clock from platform nine and
three-quarters at King’s Cross Station
H The school motto is Draco Dormiens Nunquam Titillandus (Never tickle a
sleeping dragon)
2. SORTING HAT AND CHAIR

Make your own Sorting Hat by customizing a
witch’s hat. Use painted, folded newspaper glued
to the hat to create the eyes and mouth. On
the night, place the hat on a chair ready for the
Sorting Ceremony.

3. HOGWARTS GREAT HALL FEAST
Harry’s mouth fell open. The dishes in front of him were now piled with food.
He had never seen so many things he liked to eat on one table . . .
Host a feast with tasty treats inspired by the food served at Hogwarts school banquets. Don’t
forget the best part—dessert!
A moment later the desserts appeared. Blocks of ice cream in every flavor you
could think of, apple pies, treacle tarts, chocolate éclairs and jam doughnuts,
trifle, strawberries, Jell-O, rice pudding . . .
At feasts, the Great Hall is often lit with floating candles. To make your own, paint the
cardboard centers of paper towel rolls white and insert battery-operated tea lights into
the top. Use wire or nylon thread to suspend them from the ceiling to give the illusion of
floating candles.
4. PROFESSOR DUMBLEDORE’S OFFICE

Professor Dumbledore is the Headmaster of Hogwarts when Harry first starts school. His
office is a circular space, accessed via a spiral staircase.
To decorate, you could use:
l A large desk or big table with a chair
l Framed portraits of past headmasters and headmistresses
l Fawkes the phoenix (or a pile of ashes, or an egg)
l Piles of books, including The Tales of Beedle the Bard, Fantastic Beasts and Where to
Find Them, and Quidditch Through the Ages
l A shallow dish filled with water and glitter, to represent a Pensieve
l A jar of Acid Pop sweets (or popping candy or lemon sherbets)
l Godric Gryffindor’s sword (use a plastic play sword or make your own from cardboard)
l The Sorting Hat (see instructions on how to make your own Sorting Hat in this kit)
5. MARAUDER’S MAP
Take inspiration from the Marauder’s Map and draw your own map of your event space. Hang
it at the front of the room to show your guests where different house areas are or where the
games and activities are being held.
Alternatively, make your own signs to decorate your space. Here are some ideas:
l POTIONS with Professor Snape l The Room of

l HERBOLOGY with Professor Sprout Requirement
l CHARMS with Professor Flitwick l The Dungeons
l TRANSFIGURATION with Professor McGonagall l The Owlery
l MUGGLE STUDIES with Professor Burbage l The West Tower
l CARE OF MAGICAL CREATURES with Hagrid l Hagrid’s hut
l DEFENSE AGAINST THE DARK ARTS with l The Astronomy
Professor Lupin Tower

l HISTORY OF MAGIC with Professor Binns l The Great Hall
l ARITHMANCY with Professor Vector l Greenhouse Three

6. HOGWARTS HOUSE POINTS BOARD
Throughout the event, why not award house points to participating guests or teams?
You may want to use a large chalkboard, whiteboard, or flip chart as your scoreboard.
7. OWL POST
Write the names of Hogwarts students—and/or those
attending your event—on a selection of cream envelopes and
then suspend them from the ceiling using thread, or place
them on shelves or around a fireplace to create the illusion of
the arrival of the owl postal service. If you have any soft owl
toys, you could even attach the envelopes to their beaks for
maximum effect.

THE EVENT
WIZARDING WELCOME
You can begin your Harry Potter Book Night: Hogwarts event by either printing out or
saying aloud the Wizarding Welcome below:
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
Dear Muggles,
wizards, and witches,
Welcome to this special Harry Potter
Book Night: Hogwarts party at
...........................................................
We promise you a night of wizarding fun
and the chance to discover and share the
magical world of Harry Potter. Please
leave your broomsticks at the door and keep
your wands at the ready!
It’s time to pass the magic on . . .
SORTING CEREMONY
We suggest you begin your Harry Potter Book Night event with the Sorting Ceremony to
sort your guests into the four Hogwarts houses.
If you have a large group, you could have more than one Sorting Hat to speed up the process.
YOU WILL NEED:
• The Sorting Hat (see instructions for how to make one in this kit)
• A container with house names on pieces of paper
• A chair
WHAT TO DO:
Prepare by placing pieces of paper with GRYFFINDOR, HUFFLEPUFF, SLYTHERIN, and
RAVENCLAW into a box or container. You’ll need one piece of paper for each child attending.
One by one get your guests to sit on the chair and place the Sorting Hat on their head, while
they select a piece of paper with their house name from the container.
READ THE STORIES ALOUD

Use one or some of these suggested passages to set the scene for your event.
Welcome to Hogwarts
Book: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone
Chapter seven, from page 113 “The door swung open at once” to page 114 “‘Please wait
quietly.’”
Quidditch
Book: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone
Chapter ten, from page 166 “As seven o’clock drew nearer” to page 167 “‘you’ll be joining team
practice three times a week.’”
Dumbledore’s Office
Book: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
Chapter twelve, from page 205 “They stepped off the stone staircase” to page 207 “next second
there was nothing but a smoldering pile of ash on the floor.”
The Marauder’s Map
Book: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
Chapter ten, from page 192 “He took out his wand” to page 194 “They left the room, both
smirking in a satisfied sort of way.”
The Great Hall

Book: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
Chapter twelve, on page 173, “The Great Hall looked its usual splendid self ” and “‘Hope they
hurry up with the Sorting, I’m starving.”’
THE HOGWARTS SCHOOL SONG

Rouse your guests with a sing-along to the Hogwarts school song. Don’t forget Dumbledore’s
instructions: Students can pick their favorite tune and sing the words any way they like!
Hogwarts, Hogwarts, Hoggy Warty Hogwarts,

Teach us something please,
Whether we be old and bald
Or young with scabby knees,
Our heads could do with filling
With some interesting stuff,
For now they’re bare and full of air,
Dead flies and bits of fluff,
So teach us things worth knowing,
Bring back what we’ve forgot,
Just do your best, we’ll do the rest,
And learn until our brains all rot.

Wizarding Games & Activities
QUIDDITCH CHEER!
Ask your guests to form groups of four or five and to work together to come up with a cheer
for their house team.
You might like to pick a tune you know so that you can easily sing along, or your cheer could
be a chant with no tune at all. You can make up any cheer you like, as long as it is loud and
enthusiastic! You might even like to come up with some moves that go with your cheer.
One idea to start you off is to pick out each letter of your house name and come up with a word
or sentence that describes the team. Here is an example for the Hufflepuff Quidditch team:
H. Hufflepuff! U. Under the yellow and black flag we fly!

F. Flying higher than any other team!
F. Finding the Snitch before any other Seeker!
L. Lightning-fast! E. Excited and ready to go!
P. Plucky and brave! U. Unfazed by the competition!
F. Fantastic! F. Fabulous! Go Hufflepuff!
Invite each group to participate in a cheer-off, where each group shouts out their cheer.
You might like to award house points for the loudest cheer, the best moves, and the best
cheer overall.
HOGWARTS HUNT
Hide the following items around your event space. Beside each item is a note suggesting how
you might like to craft the object.
Make sure you ask your guests to leave each item where they find it so that everyone can have
a chance!
• Dumbledore’s copy of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them by Newt Scamander (a
book wrapped in brown paper with the title marked. You could write “Property of Albus
Dumbledore” on a label inside)
• Neville’s Mimbulus mimbletonia (a succulent in a pot, with small red baubles hanging down
—to represent boils)
• Hedwig (a soft owl toy)
• Harry’s Firebolt (a broomstick with “Firebolt” written on the side)
• The lost diadem of Ravenclaw (a tiara)
• Fang’s collar (a large dog collar)
• Trevor, Neville’s toad (a soft toad toy or a plastic toy)
• A Golden Snitch (a ping-pong ball
painted gold, with paper wings
attached) HOGWARTS HUNT CHECKLIST

fluffy ball with googly eyes attached) q Neville’s Mimbulus mimbletonia
• Puking Pastilles (draw and cut out a set q Hedwig

side and purple on the other) q The lost diadem of Ravenclaw

Give each guest or team of guests a copy q Trevor, Neville’s toad

tick next to each item as they find it. Or,

if you made a “Marauder’s Map” of your
q Arnold, Ginny’s Pygmy Puff
event space, make copies and hand them
q Puking Pastilles

COLOR IN A HOUSE CREST

and gold for Gryffindor, yellow and black for Hufflepuff, green and silver for Slytherin, and
