I understand this is intended for any child who is a Harry Potter fan, but I would not be opposed to owning this myself. This Hedwig toy features more than 15 sounds and movements to (kind of) bring this beloved companion to life.

Here’s a beautiful staple to place within those bookends. This one’s a bit of a splurge, especially given the fact that it only includes the first three books in the series, but this illustrated collection can serve as a treasured keepsake and collector’s item. Get the Philosopher’s Stone, Chamber of Secrets and Prisoner of Azkaban.

Flying Cauldron

If you’re craving the delicious Butterbeer from Universal Studios or Harry Potter New York but are nowhere near either of those locations, or don’t feel like making your own, this is a pretty good replacement. It’s a bit on the sweeter side but has that same creamy butterscotch flavor (and is also nonalcoholic).
