We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed collects a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page.
1. A magical cookbook that'll have them sipping on gin and (pumpkin) juice in no time. They hate pumpkin juice? FINE! This also contains recipes for treacle tarts, rock cakes, kippers, and more.
2. Ceramic coasters featuring some fantastic HP-inspired designs (including the Deathly Hallows *swoon*) to protect their table from permanent wine glass, coffee mug, and gillywater stains.
3. Uno cards that provide the perfect consolation game for anyone who straight-up sucks at Wizard's Chess. And unless their name is Ron Weasley, it's likely they fall into this category.
4. A 2020 boxed calendar packed with difficult trivia questions, fun behind-the-scenes facts, and vibrant images from the movies that turn every morning into a ~magical~ one.
5. A tapestry backdrop capable of transforming their Ikea furnished living room into the renowned Hogwarts library itself. Note: Restricted section not included.
6. A super comfy pullover hoodie so that every passerby knows where their Alma Mater is. "Didn't get your acceptance letter? Can't relate." —whoever receives this as a gift.
7. A ~birthdae~ cake pop-up card crafted by Hagrid himself. Words and all.
8. A mint- or vanilla-scented bath bomb that acts as an aquatic sorting hat. That's right! They just drop this into their tub to find out which house they belong in: blue for Ravenclaw, red for Gryffindor, green for Slytherin, yellow for Hufflepuff.
9. Harry Potter coloring books filled with gorgeous illustrations they'll want to rip out and hang in a fancy frame (which is great, because every page deserves to be on display throughout their home).
10. A Gringotts Bank coin collection that includes a galleon, sickle, and knut they'll want to bring along on their next Diagon Alley shopping spree — one never knows when their debit card will malfunction and they'll need cold hard coins.
11. A chocolate frog mold for when they're too busy for a Honeydukes run but want some froggy treats ASAP.
12. A Pop Chart infographic poster that's basically an illustrated dictionary for all ~magical topics~ commonly discussed in the Wizarding World, ranging from wands and Quidditch to transportation and structures.
13. A 100% Out of Print cotton tee with the kind of mantra that I would consider having tattooed on my forehead. In a bright, bold font.
14. A drawing guide technically designed for kids, but who are we kidding? We're all children here. This will take their hand and guide them toward the path of creativity and artistic ability, teaching them how to draw all of the main characters in the Harry Potter universe.
15. A quill set that includes a feather dip pen, black ink, and a Hogwarts acceptance letter — because Google docs simply cannot compete with the feel of feather pen against paper, am I right?
16. An insulated tumbler cup ideal for all beverage situations: wine, water, coffee, pumpkin juice, butter beer, etc.
17. An iPhone + Android photo printer with the ability to ✨ bring your photo to life ✨. Prepare for change, muggles. Your newspapers will never be the same.
18. A snowy owl plush because I don't think their school dormitory would allow for a real one. It's a cruel, cruel world us muggles are living in.
19. A Hogwarts library book set complete with Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Quidditch Through the Ages, and Tales of Beedle the Bard.
20. A maze game with only one way to win — snatch that Triwizard Cup before anyone else does! Without being unfairly murdered by Lord You-Know-Who, of course.
21. Bertie Bott’s beans available in a wide array of delicious, not-at-all-disgusting flavors. Banana! Blueberry! Black Pepper! Booger!
22. A Snape-inspired heat-changing mug to add a tear, or two, or several to their morning coffee routine. Always. *begins to sob*
23. A varsity jacket except this is intended more for quidditch than football players. This lightweight layer is available in all four houses (Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, Gryffindor, and Slytherin) as well as a plain Hogwarts style (in case you're unsure of their house).
24. A key ring that's near impossible to catch. Besides being super fast, it plays a mean game of hide and seek.
25. Harry Potter: A Pop-Up Guide to Hogwarts — in other words, all I want for my birthday this year. This gorgeously illustrated pop-up book will make them feel as if they're walking through campus. Broom in one hand, to-go pumpkin juice in the other.
26. A LEGO set featuring 878 pieces (cue nervous giggle) that they're very likely to step on while barefoot. But hey, at least they'll have built Hogwarts from the ground up at the end of all that pain.
27. Harry Potter: A History of Magic, a book filled with original drawings and drafts by J.K. Rowling. Think you knew everything about the wizarding world? THINK AGAIN!
28. A makeup brush set that will infuse magic into their daily beauty routine. Unfortunately, the brushes require human hands and cannot be bewitched into doing your smoky eye...
29. An enamel pin perfect for the bibliophiles of your friend group. You know, the pals most likely to break into the restricted section of the library.
30. A wand pen and bookmark set they'll want in their backpack whilst preparing for their next O.W.L exam. What will they write with? How will they hold their place in that divination textbook?
31. A boxed set of the first three Harry Potter books, complete with larger font and gorgeous illustrations worthy of their own magical museum exhibit.
32. An engraved pencil set for when their quill and ink duo aren't readily available. Standardized testing + these writing utensils = almost FUN!?
33. A Marauder's Map replica they'll want to pack in their carry-on before boarding the Hogwarts Express, folks. Want to sneak off campus at any point? This piece of parchment paper is here to HELP.
34. A magical, vacuum-insulated Thermos capable of keeping drinks cold for up to 12 hours. Plus, this comes with a pop-up straw and carry handle that makes it easy to use on-the-go.
35. Pajama pants sure to ~slytherin~ to your personal shopping cart. These bottoms are so cozy, Voldemort may have worn these in lieu of his billowing black robe.
36. An illustrated book that acts as a guide to the secret twists + turns that make up Hogwarts Castle. PLUS! This comes with a an invisible ink pen in shape of a WAND, people!
37. A lined journal they can hypothetically store a horcrux in. Do I recommend it? Probably not. But it's ultimately up to them!
38. A hand-poured soy candle to fill their home with the sweet scent of rum, spice, and vanilla. Just because they can't sip butter beer right now doesn't mean their humble abode can't smell like butter beer.
39. Spectrespecs you'll get for free with the most current issue of The Quibbler. These bad boys will have them seeing wrackspurts in no time!
40. A chess set they should purchase with caution. The Knights are known to be pretty aggressive, and I'm not sure Ron will be able to save the day. Up to you, though!
41. A woven tapestry they can also use as a throw blanket and a rug, because lord (Voldemort) knows that every muggle home needs some HP-inspired decor.
42. Playing cards featuring gorgeous HP-inspired illustrations: the Sorting Hat, Hedwig, and Scabbers. **takes deep breath** There's also Fawkes, the Nimbus 2000, a Hungarian horntail dragon, the Knight Bus, and so much more!
43. A Quidditch set that makes a more exciting gift than say — oh, I don't know — a Nimbus 2000. This comes with a quaffle, two bludgers, a snitch, and a Quidditch poster for anyone who aspires to be the next Viktor Krum.
44. The complete 8-film collection on DVD so they can see the splendor and bright lights of Hogwarts whenever you damn well please.
45. Or a boxed set of all seven books in the series. Swoon. Sigh. Heart eyes. Necessary. Amazing.
Me @ the fact that I can't just keep everything for myself:
