2nd Annual Hogwarts Summer Fun Challenge


We are so excited to announce that we are planning another round of our wildly successful Hogwarts Summer Fun Challenge! This absolutely free summer program is just what you need to keep your kids having fun and staying busy all summer long. 

Here are some comments from our last year's participants.

"We have been amazed by the creativity and open-ended fun we found in the Hogwarts Summer School assignments each week. It has been so much fun to participate. I loved being able to adapt the activities for the kid's different ages or interest levels,  loved the sweet and charitable acts of service, and really loved getting our imaginations going. "
Brooke

"I thought the challenges were really fun. I loved making memories with my kids and doing things with them that I wouldn't think of on my own. "
Jessica



"We absolutely loved this!! We would definitely want to participate again."
Jaimie

"We absolutely 100% loved Hogwarts Summer School and are all so sad it's over already. This summer has flown by. You helped make it an amazing summer for the girls."
Cynthia

This year's challenge will include all new activities so even if you participated last summer you can still get involved in the fun. Sign up quickly because we will be limiting participation to just the first 50 to respond. 

When your kids sign up for this FREE 8 week challenge, they will be placed in one of the four houses. Then they will be able to earn points for doing activities for each of their Hogwarts Summer Classes. They will concoct their own ice cream flavor in Potions, learn to find a star constellation in the night sky in Astronomy, and play a fun game with hula hoops in Quidditch.

Each week they will receive a new list of options for each class. Then at the end of the week, they will report their scores for how many of the activities they completed. Their scores will be added to the rest of the scores in their house and the competition for the house cup will be on! Everyone who completes a certain number of activities will receive a Hogwarts Summer School Completion Certificate and a box of Official Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans. In addition, the contestants with the highest points in each house will win a handmade wizard wand. All prizes will be mailed free of charge.

Enrollment is limited so sign up for this fun summer challenge today. The competition will begin on June 9th and will end on August 10th, skipping one week for the 4th of July.

All you need to do to enroll is send an email with the names and ages of each child that would like to enter to:
hogwartssummerfunchallenge@gmail.com

We will respond right away to let you know you have been admitted. Then at the end of May you will receive information about the Sorting Hat Quiz that will place you in the right house and instructions about how to begin. This challenge is going to be so much fun! On the blog we will include posts about activities we do as part of our Hogwarts challenge as well as giving you and your kids encouragement to continue. Please pass on this information to any of your friends and family members who might like to join in the challenge with you. You could take turns hosting a neighborhood day where you complete several of the activities together!
