This story is part of Gift Guide, our year-round collection of the best gift
ideas.

The wizarding world of Harry Potter, with its dazzling spells, nifty gadgets and
magical creatures, offers a much-needed escape from the real world. And there's
a plethora of merchandise to help make that imaginary world feel a little more
real.

Just in time for Back to Hogwarts Day on Sept. 1 (when, according to the books,
students return to the school of magic to start a new term), here are some Harry
Potter-themed gifts that are sure to excite any aspiring wizard.


Pottery Barn Teen


GOLDEN SNITCH CLOCK

I'd argue the best merch is useful merch. This Golden Snitch clock is something
your gift recipient will likely use every day and is an eye-catching addition to
any display or bedside table. 

$59 at Pottery Barn Teen

Hallmark


THE OFFICIAL HARRY POTTER BAKING BOOK COOKBOOK

The bakers in your life will appreciate this guide on how to make everything
from Pumpkin Patch Pies to Owl Muffins.

$14 at Amazon
$16 at Barnes & Noble
$16 at BooksAMillion

Williams Sonoma


HARRY POTTER COOKIE CUTTER SET

Another staple for bakers: cookie cutters of everything from Harry's glasses to
the Sorting Hat.

$30 at Williams Sonoma

Williams Sonoma


HARRY POTTER INSTANT POT 6-QUART DUO PLUS

It seems more vendors are (thankfully) recognizing that many Harry Potter fans
are adults looking to add some magic to their everyday routines. This Instant
Pot, embellished with a dazzling outline of Hogwarts, definitely checks that
box.

$130 at Williams Sonoma

Alex and Ani


ALEX AND ANI TIME TURNER SPINNER NECKLACE

This one's for the jewelry fans. This Time Turner necklace features a charm with
a crystal hourglass and the inscription, "I mark the hours, every one, nor have
I yet outrun the sun."

$60 at Alex and Ani

Amazon


HEDWIG INTERACTIVE OWL

I understand this is intended for children, but I would not be opposed to owning
this myself. This Hedwig toy features more than 15 sounds and movements to (kind
of) bring this beloved companion to life.

$43 at Amazon

Theory11


HARRY POTTER PLAYING CARDS

These cards feature really cool illustrations of Harry Potter characters
including Harry, Hermione, Dumbledore and Voldemort. You can choose a deck
featuring one of four colors: red for Gryffindor, green for Slytherin, blue for
Ravenclaw or yellow for Hufflepuff. There's also an option to get one deck of
each color for $40.

$10 at Theory11
$10 at Amazon

Barnes & Noble


LEGO HARRY POTTER HOGWARTS CLOCK TOWER

For the Harry Potter and Lego fan, there's perhaps no better option than a Lego
set to recreate pieces of the wizarding world.

$79 at Stockx
$72 at Amazon

Kohl's


LIONEL HOGWARTS EXPRESS READY-TO-PLAY TRAIN SET

Train sets are cool. Hogwarts Express train sets are cooler. This 37-piece set
is battery powered and remote controlled, and features sound clips from Harry
Potter characters.

$100 at Amazon

Hallmark


METAL BOOKEND

What cooler way to hold up your collection of Harry Potter books than with these
fun themed bookends.

$20 at Hallmark

Amazon


HARRY POTTER: THE ILLUSTRATED COLLECTION (BOOKS 1-3 BOXED SET)

Here's a beautiful staple to place within those bookends. This one's a bit of a
splurge, especially given the fact that it only includes the first three books
in the series, but this illustrated collection can serve as a treasured keepsake
and collector's item.

$106 at Amazon
$100 at Barnes & Noble

Barnes & Noble


MOLESKINE LIMITED EDITION HARRY POTTER NOTEBOOK

If the person you're shopping for prefers to pen their own thoughts or stories,
this notebook offers inspiration to unleash their creative magic. 

$28 at Barnes & Noble
$28 at Amazon

Target


HARRY POTTER: COLORING WIZARDRY COLORING BOOK

Coloring books can provide a fun and relaxing activity for people of all ages.
This one features more than 80 illustrations of moments throughout the series,
from Harry's first Quidditch match to the battle of Hogwarts.

$9 at Target
$9 at Amazon

Amazon


HARRY POTTER WIZARD CHESS SET

This chess set will let you relive the Wizard's Chess scene in Harry Potter and
the Sorcerer's Stone -- just without the deadly battles.

$40 at Amazon

Amazon


HARRY POTTER PICTIONARY AIR

Here's another fun game option, but with a tech twist. Use Harry's wand to draw
clues in the air, which other players can view via the Pictionary Air app on
their devices. 

$17 at Amazon

Abrar Al-Heeti/CNET


WOOD QUOTE SIGNS

We all need a little motivation now and then, and these wooden quote signs are
among my personal favorites. One reads, "Help will always be given at Hogwarts
to those who ask for it," and another says, "Don't let the Muggles get you
down." You can hang these 5x7 signs on the wall, or set them on a tabletop. 

$15 at Hallmark

Vera Bradley


VERA BRADLEY HARRY POTTER COLLECTION

Vera Bradley's latest Harry Potter collection includes backpacks, duffel bags,
wallets and other accessories, so you can take the magic wherever you go. Prices
for bags range from around $50 to $160.

$160 at Vera Bradley

Amazon


LOUNGEFLY HARRY POTTER SHOULDER BAG

This bag features an array of fun Harry Potter images, from the Sorting Hat to a
Golden Snitch to Hedwig's cage. 

$70 at Amazon

Amazon


MOBYFOX HOGWARTS GOLD SMARTWATCH BAND

Potter-fy your Apple Watch with this silicone band featuring the Hogwarts Coat
of Arms and a Golden Snitch.

$40 at Walmart
$40 at Amazon

Pottery Barn Teen


TIME TURNER CLOCK

I'm adding another clock to this list because I just got this one and I'm
obsessed. This is not only an elegant timepiece, but it also has an hourglass on
the back that makes it infinitely cooler.

$89 at Pottery Barn

Flying Cauldron


FLYING CAULDRON BUTTERSCOTCH BEER

If you're craving the delicious Butterbeer from Universal Studios or Harry
Potter New York but are nowhere near either of those locations, or don't feel
like making your own, this is a pretty good replacement. It's a bit on the
sweeter side but has that same creamy butterscotch flavor (and is also
nonalcoholic). You can get a pack of four 12-ounce bottles for $14, or a pack of
12 16-ounce cans for $50. 

$14 at Amazon

Amazon


ILLUMINATING WAND

Last but not least, no wizard's collection is complete without a wand. This
option lights up, which makes up -- at least in part -- for the harsh reality
that there's little else a wand can do in the Muggle world. Unless we summon our
imagination...

$35 at Amazon
$35 at Barnes & Noble
