The illuminating version of Harry's wand lights up at the tip, which makes it fun for fans of any age and suits a Gryffindor or a first-time wand owner. Noble Collection makes the official film replicas. It is a good first wand for a child, and it can also sit on a shelf as a prop.

6. A Ravenclaw house pen
A weighty Noble Collection pen with Ravenclaw house styling is a small, useful gift for the house that values wit and learning. It suits a Ravenclaw who still writes by hand, and the listing gives an age grade of 10 and up. It works well tucked inside a book or a notebook.

Jim Kay's illustrated editions put full-color art on nearly every page of the first three books. They are a keepsake for a Ravenclaw who has worn out their paperbacks and rereads the series. The set is a hardcover box of books 1 to 3, so it also works as a family read-aloud gift.

8. The MinaLima interactive edition
The MinaLima edition is illustrated by the studio behind the films' graphics and includes paper pop-ups and pull tabs. It is a collector's copy of book one, which suits a fan who collects special editions and likes to open and touch a book rather than just read it.
Tip: A collector's copy of book one only.
9. The Hogwarts Library box set
The three in-world books, Fantastic Beasts, Quidditch Through the Ages and The Tales of Beedle the Bard, come together in one set. They read like textbooks borrowed from the school library, which suits a fan who wants more of the wizarding world. The listing gives a box set of three paperbacks.

11. An official house scarf
A knitted scarf in house colors with the crest is the classic first-day-of-term look, and it suits a Hufflepuff who feels the cold. This listing is the Hufflepuff version, and the other houses are listed separately, so check the house before you order. The listing describes an officially licensed knitted scarf with the house crest.

13. Butterbeer flavoring for baking
McCormick's limited-edition Butterbeer flavor adds caramel and butterscotch notes to cupcakes, frosting and ice cream. It is a fun add-on to the cookbook for a fan who bakes. It is a limited edition, so stock may change, and the listing is a pack of two 4 fl oz bottles.

The Noble Collection Marauder's Map unfolds to full size, with the printed paths and footprints from the films. It suits a fan of any house and works as wall decor or a prop for a themed party. It is a 1:1 replica, so it is large when open, which makes it a good display piece.
Tip: Plan wall space before you give it.
15. A Platform 9 3/4 metal sign
An embossed Platform 9 3/4 sign turns a bedroom door or reading nook into the way to the Hogwarts Express. It suits a fan who is decorating a room and wants something that is not a poster. It is a metal sign for a wall or a door.
Tip: Check the wall or door space first.
16. Floating candles for a Great Hall ceiling
Hanging LED taper candles with a wand remote recreate the Great Hall ceiling at home, which suits a fan planning a themed room or party. These are unbranded decor, not official merchandise. The listing gives a set of 20 with a 6-hour timer, and both the candles and the wand take AAA batteries.
Tip: They take AAA batteries, so add a spare pack.
