For any child that simply knows they belong in Gryffindor with our heroes Harry, Ron and Hermione, this simple Matalan Harry Potter costume for kids delivers on all counts. With a hooded cape and matching Gryffindor badge, this costume is easy to pop on top of school uniform, and the addition of the Hogwarts tie, glasses and wand make the look complete. The combination of the reasonable price, along with high quality accessories makes this option one of our favourites.

Boden Hogwarts Crest Dress

For an adorable Potter outfit that doubles as a day dress, Boden have collaborated with the Harry Potter brand to create a whole collection of magical kids' clothing. The Hogwarts Crest Dress is easy to dress up with costume accessories such as a witch's hat, cloak and wand, but is also subtle enough to be worn on a day-to-day basis. We love the versatility of this comfy cotton dress, and kids are sure to love it too.

Wow! Stuff Harry Potter Junior Invisibility Cloak

This isn't just a Harry Potter cloak or costume... the team at Wow! Stuff have created a genuinely functional invisibility cloak that will have kids of all ages in awe. Inspired by the famous invisibility cloak that Harry inherits from his father in the Harry Potter books, the invisibility cloak is known to help our hero through some tricky situations. The Wow! Stuff cloak itself is intricately designed to match the one in the films, and the green lining means it works with a green screen. All you need to do is download the accompanying app to your smartphone, and kids will marvel as they can use the cloak to 'disappear'. This clever idea means that kids and parents can make videos of themselves becoming 'invisible', just like Harry Potter and his friends in the films.

Hermione Granger Costume

For kids who love the Harry Potter books and are inspired by the witty and studious Hermione Granger, we've got the perfect costume idea. This Halloween costume is also perfect for World Book Day or just dressing up at home. Complete with a Gryffindor top, skirt and a Hermione wig, all kids need to complete this look is a wand and some books to carry. It's also available in a range of age sizes, perfect for primary and preschool kids who love dressing up as their favourite witch.

Smyths Toys Harry Potter Costume

For a costume Harry Potter himself would envy, Smyths Toys has created an all-inclusive option for Halloween and beyond. Again, this option looks great added on top of a school uniform, as the robe, wand and glasses complete the look. You could even take it one step further with a drawn-on lightning bolt scar and broomstick.

Once you have this pack, it can be doubled up as a Halloween costume, or even as props for a fun family photoshoot.

Kids Wizard Outfit With Beard

Harry Potter costumes are all the rage, but if your child is more of an Albus than a Ron, this adorable costume is fit for any little wizard. With a beard and wand included with the outfit, kids could even add some classic Dumbledore half-moon glasses to get the full Hogwarts Headmaster effect. If your child is wise beyond their years, and knows a thing or two about magic, this costume could be the one for them.

Hongfago 5 Pcs Set Hufflepuff Robe

While Gryffindor Harry Potter costumes seem all the rage, perhaps your child feels more affinity with a different house.

Like most of our Harry Potter costumes, kids can easily add this on top of their regular school uniform clothes, and simply replace the tie and add the cloak and scarf!
