Online Activities
for Lockdown
Social isolation is difficult, but many entertainers and creators are thinking of brilliant ways to keep us engaged from home, and fellow Potter fans are no different.
​
If you find an activity you love that is not listed here, please let me know by email or socials :)
Disclaimer: I have created none of these, I just wanted to create an easy space to find them.
JK Rowling and WizardingWorld.com have created Harry Potter at Home: a fun resource to keep yourself and your kids entertained from the living room.

I was very disappointed that I missed visiting the British Library Exhibition, 'Harry Potter: A History of Magic' in 2017-2018. But now we all get a chance to see it!
Thanks to Google Arts & Culture, the exhibition is re-open for all:

The Audiobook for Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, narrated by Stephen Fry (my favourite narrator), is now available for FREE streaming. Also, check out other free children/teen audiobooks for streaming on Audible Stories.
The Tales of Beedle the Bard Audiobook is also now ready for purchase, narrated by Jude Law, Sally Mortemore, Warwick Davis, Evanna Lynch, Jason Isaacs, Bonnie Wright and Norma Dumezweni.
The Peters Township Public Library has created the Hogwarts Digital Escape Room! Play as an individual or a group, and channel Hermione's smarts, Ron's wit, or Harry's dumb luck!
