I was having a hard time finding plates I liked, and then I found these shield plates, which are so perfect, and pair so well with the lightning bolt napkins. We had mini sandwiches and fruit and tea (I was going for sort of a high tea feel), and then cake. I repotted (it would be super fun to let older kids re-pot them themselves, but I felt like that was too much to manage with first graders when it's too cold to be outside) them into these cute little tiny pots, printed up papers about how they are Venomous Tentaculas, and instructed the girls on how to care for them with extreme caution.Īfter all of this, we escorted our future students into the dining hall. I was originally going to do succulents, but when walking through Home Depot I found these fuzzy purple guys that were too good to be true, and were also much less expensive. Next, we did a little Herbology, and I handed out these adorable little plants I found at Home Depot (I can't find it on their website, but here is one so you can see what it is a little better). While some were busy making potions, I went around to the others and cut ribbon for their pets to have collars. I had bowls full of tiny pom poms which they scooped into little glass vials (they loved it) and they made little labels for them. I told them we were going to create some "potions" for our pets, and handed them a recipe card with different formulas they could select from. I wheeled out my other cart full of potions and herbology contents. Next we moved into the living room where the girls sat with their pets. The girls each selected a magical pet, and were given an adoption certificate with their pets' name. (Brigie wanted me to get toads, but (1) I had to stop somewhere and (2) I really didn't think those would be in high demand.) I told them that Eeylops Owl Emporium was kind enough to host a pop up shop just for the party, and wheeled out this cart full of little fluffy animals, including owls, kittens, and mice. I sat them all down and first asked if any of them already had a Magical Creature, and their answers were hilarious. The concept for the party was that the girls were getting a preview of some of the classes at Hogwarts, beginning with Care of Magical Creatures. (and yes, you are right, it would have been perfectly authentic and fitting to have Hagrid's pink birthday cake with green iced letters, but she insisted on white with gray letters and lighting bolts and an owl, so I obliged!) She was SO proud and excited, and it was totally adorable, so I went with some Hufflepuff fun for her party, which involved her most favorite theme: cute and fluffy. I wanted to come up with some ideas that would make all the girls super excited while staying true to the Hogwarts theme, and here is what I came up with.Ī few months back, Chip let Vivi and Brigie take the sorting quiz on the Pottermore app, and Brigie was sorted as a Hufflepuff. (pictured above: details on portrait of B, tablecloths, plates, cups, napkins, flameless candles, floating flameless candles, feather garland)īrigie is in first grade, and according to her, not many of her friends know much about Harry Potter, and quite a few of them just aren't interested. I was really surprised this was what she wanted up until recently she showed little interest in Harry Potter while her big sister has been an ardent reader and fan, but something changed and she has been set on this as her birthday party theme for a few months now.
