And what is cause of the bangs coming from Gred & Forge's room? How 
did they make Ton Tongue Taffey and the rest of their inventory if 
they didn't use magic during the summer?

With the students who are Muggle-born and Harry it's easy to know who 
is doing magic but what about the students who live in the magic 
households?  Magic is used to do almost everything from cooking to 
knitting.  Does this mean once you enter Hogwarts you aren't allowed 
to help with household chores?


Kethryn now -

Well, maybe the reason that George and Fred get away with it is because their parents are magic users?  It kind of makes sense if you remember that Harry got the letter in COS warning him that a hoover charm had been used in his home and that he would be expelled if he used any more magic...so presumably, the MoM cannot tell who is actually the person doing the magic just that magic is being performed.  Maybe.
