We LOVE the Harry Potter books in the KiddyCharts household. We haven’t quite progressed to the film stage yet with the kids, but the adults have been enjoying them. There are so many wonderful tie-ins with the books in the toy industry and beyond. We’ve picked some of the best Harry Potter gifts for kids, so you don’t have to trawl the internet yourself.
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them Audio CD (RRP £12)
If you have seen the film, and loved it, and even if you haven’t – you can’t beat listening to the audio book and having Eddie Redmayne read the story to you. This is just as good as the Harry Potter Stephen Fry audio books, so why not pop this in the kids stocking this Christmas too?
Funko Pocket Pop! Harry Potter Advent Calendar, and Pop Vinyl collection (RRP £55)
Something to get a little bit before Christmas is this spectacular Advent Calendar from Funko. It really is just stunning – with a character a day, and the box designed to build a scene, this is beyond perfect for any Harry Potter fans out there. Yes, the price point is high, but we think it is worth it.
Harry Potter Chamber of Secrets dolls
Six of them to collect from the Chamber of Secrets film, these all come with their own personalised wand. They also have a few other little features to help with imaginative storytelling.
Harry Potter real talking Sorting Hat™ (RRP £40)
“Now, slip me snug about your ears, I’ve never yet been wrong. I’ll have a look inside your mind. And tell you where you belong.”
The brilliant Sorting Hat™ from the Harry Potter book comes to life thanks to this gift; four unique responses, allow any young wizards to place to hat upon their head and be sorted into their houses. It moves and talks just as the Sorting Hat™ in the films as well, so where will you be sorted?
LEGO Hogwarts; Great Hall from Harry Potter (RRP £90)
It’s the Great Hall from Harry Potter; not sure we need to say more, other than it’s got moving stairs, you get to duel with Draco Malfoy, and you can discover the changing faces in the Mirror of Erised too. Harry, Ron and Hermione need help to fight the Basilisk and Lord Voldemort too.
LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Express (RRP £75)
Come and join the Harry Potter Express; complete the clock, bridge, steps to Platform 9 3/4 and even a moving brick wall entrance.
