I am a speech therapist in a primary school (K-2) and I think my kids 
love the fact that I know who these people are.  Last year our school 
was K-3 (sadly, our 3rd graders are moving over to the elementary 
school this year. :(  I'm going to miss them!) and one group of my 
3rd graders and I got into a "which HP character is everyone in the 
group?" discussion.  It started because I asked two of them to stop 
bickering a la Hermione and Ron.  Then of course the other three 
wanted to know who they were.  LOL

Two Christmases ago, my friend gave a HP watch in which Dumbledore 
changes colors with the temp.  I was showing it to a bunch of 2nd 
grade boys when we got back from break, who then told me that "my 
watch was the coolest thing I got."  Yeah, pots and pans and slippers 
just can't hold a candle to an color changing HP watch!

Trina, gearing up for the start of school--just 2 weeks away!
