It’s hard to believe that Harry Potter first came into our lives 39 years ago and since then has brought millions of readers a whole new world of magic and imagination and reminded us all that each and every one of us has the power within ourselves to do that unimaginable-we just need to believe. Like so many families, this series of books holds such a special place in my heart.
Harry Potter “grew up” with my children and was the center of our family reading time for more years than I can count and now we are reliving that tradition as my grandkids are being introduced to Harry Potter, Hogwarts, and all the wonders that await there. In honor of Harry Potter’s Birthday, we’ve created this quick and easy-felt bookmark craft that you’ll kids can make and use today.
