Harry Potter Party?

Does anyone have activity ideas for a Harry Potter book 7 release party?





We are, of course, dressing up, having a feast, and playing a "find the golden snitches (aka, decorated easter eggs)" quidditch game. What i want is ideas to use based on classes:





Like, for divination, we are going to read tea leaves and play magic eight ball. For Herbology we are going to make tissue paper flowers. For muggle studies, we'll watch the movies. What else can we do as activities? HELP!

Harry Potter Party?
My daughter says she knows a way of actually playing Quidditch. Before the game, you paint a superball gold and attach paper wings. You hide it before the party in your backyard or wherever you are playing. Also use hula hoops taped securely to sticks as your goal hoops, three on each end of your playing pitch. You will need a swimming noodle for every player, two soft Nerf balls for Bludgers, and a red playground ball for the Quaffle.





Next, get organized for the game. You sort everyone onto two teams. You choose two people on each team to be Beaters who throw the Bludgers at players on the other team. If a Beater hits a player with a Bludger that player has to stand frozen for ten seconds. One player on each team is the Seeker whose job is to find the Snitch, of course. One player on each team is the Keeper, guarding the goals. All the other players are Chasers. The Chasers try to throw the Quaffle (playground ball) through the hoops. Everyone has to "ride" their swimming noodles like broomsticks.





Scoring: Whichever Seeker finds the Snitch first wins 150 points for their team. Each goal is worth 10 points.
Reply:For potions you can make milkshakes





For Care of magical creatures you can play pin the tail on the hippogrif





For flying classes you can get two brooms. Then have a relay race.


You'll have to run with the broom between your legs and hold the broom with both hands. Should be funny to watch for the people waiting for the broom.
