Happy Birthday Avrianna ~
Many of you know that I planned a Harry Potter Party for Avrianna's 8th Birthday. Here's how I planned it, coordinated it, and how it worked out. I hope you enjoy the pictures and information. Maybe you can use some of my ideas for next Harry Potter Party!
Many of you know that I planned a Harry Potter Party for Avrianna's 8th Birthday. Here's how I planned it, coordinated it, and how it worked out. I hope you enjoy the pictures and information. Maybe you can use some of my ideas for next Harry Potter Party!We held the party downstairs so as her 15 guests arrived they had to get out of the Muggle world
Going through the brick wall ~ I bought a red sheet and took a black perm. marker to make the bricks
To get to 9 3/4 train station
Once through the they entered into Diagon Alley
To get their capes, wands, and
The dry Ice was a HUGE hit!
From there they all had to get sorted into their Hogwart House

Lightning Bolt scars
I used black eye liner ~ very easy to wash off so I didn't make any parents upsetLightning Bolt scarsThe dry Ice was a HUGE hit!
From there they all had to get sorted into their Hogwart HouseI purchased the hat online and it works like the magic 8 ball....shake it, flip it over, and it will show you the letter for what house you are in.
The Slytherin House
The Ravenclaw House
The Gryfindor House.....I can't believe only one shook this house :)
The HufflePuff House
I covered our pool table and used that for all the kids to eat their pizza n drinks. 
Here's Avrianna's Cake I designed and made .....The Quidditch Game Field
The cutest Harry Potter in the house ~ but I'm partial :)
I made sensory boxes for each kid to put their hand in to find the cockrotch. I turned the lights down low and they had to show me the bug so I knew they were actually putting their hands in the box ~ LOL
Which were peeled grapes that were in soaking in oil.
Mooshie Brains
Was a brick of Ramen noodles soaking in oil
Fat ~ The grosses by far, YUCK
Was bread and cut up latex gloves soaking in yogart and oil.
After everyone did it I turned on the lights and had them guess what they thought it was and then I showed them :)
I had them bobbing for apples :)
The Scavenger Hunt for the missing Snitch
First off I read off that the snitch what stolen and there were clues to point out where to find it.
The First Clue stated ~ "He took her life before she knew it, in the Master is where she'll stay. Watch out as she'll scare you right away"

The First Clue stated ~ "He took her life before she knew it, in the Master is where she'll stay. Watch out as she'll scare you right away"That sent them upstairs to the Master Bathroom
where they found Moaning Myrtle hanging on the toilet.
The clue on Moaning Mrytle is "So much to learn with magic Potions and what needs to be said. But be very careful as you'll lose your head"
Which sent them back downstairs to the "Potions" room
Under the skull was another clue that stated
"Hagrid says music lulls Fluffy to sleep. Find the Notes ~ shhhhhh don't make a peep"

Her clue was. "Now find your hearts desire but best beware You're requested to enter through The Devil's Snare.
So downstairs to The Mirror of Erised
Each child had 3 seconds to stare at the mirror to see if it told them "their hearts desire"
I then went last as they didn't see anything and said......"Oh I see it"

"If it's the snitch that you seek. Find the Monster Harry Potter books and take a peek"
Avrianna has the whole collection of Harry Potter books in her room and back upstairs they all went. To find......
My home made Monster book of Monsters that ate up the clue into pieces
Once the clues where put into order it read
