We also scoured the internet to find the coolest items across multiple categories—beauty, home and food—and made sure to include options for all ages.

This set comes with all seven books in paperback form, so they can pick up on all those side plots and scenes that were cut from the films. (P.S. There’s also a fancy hardcover trunk set available if they already have the paperback collection.)

3. Harry Potter Cookie Baking Kit
No movie marathon is complete without some snacks, and this cookie cutter set has everything you'd need to cobble together some tasty treats that even Kreacher would approve of.
