HARRY POTTER PARTIES!
So, as some of you may know (and most of you probably don't) our family business is a bookstore ( Percy's Books cuz I'm totally into self-promotion). And one of the biggest selling days in book retail (and I bet you can all guess what day I mean *points to subject line*) is coming up and I have a task for all of my F-List.
My mother has assigned me (surprise surprise) to plan the
BIGGEST HARRY POTTER PARTY LIKE EVAH KTHNX!
but I'm finding it hard to come up with ideas so:
HELP ME PLEASE!
We will probably have the run of the whole mall (don't get excited, it's very small, about 15 stores) and will have activities from about 2ish to midnight. I already have a magician lined up and a dramatic readers from the local community little theater coming to read the last chapter of HBP before midnight.
So, my question is: what else would make for fun Harry Potter activities? And prizes! :-D
Here are some of my ideas:
Crafts (make your own wand, origami owls, etc)
A "Quidditch" Game
Human Chess
Trivia Game (maybe like Harry Potter Jeopardy where the categories are Book 1, Book 2 or Charms, Sports, Romance. Something like that.)
Pretty lame I know. So...any ideas on how to really make this the
BIGGEST BESTEST HARRY POTTERIST PART OF ALL TIME LIKE EVAH?
(sorry for blinding you with color but...I'm in a RAINBOW mood today!)

no subject
...or you could just have an aussie on the other end of the line randomly squeeing / booing on the other end of the lin and telling everyone they must buy 10 copies from Percy's books...
hee... or like I said, the coffee vouchers/discount book vouchers etc.
Make 'pumpkin juice' & stuff. Costumes etc. always works a treat. Wandmaking. Pin the tail on the thestral (and seeing as it's invisible, everyone wins!)
Okay, enough crack for me!
