I wrote this book for my course at the North Landing Academy of Magic Arts, and it's been recommended for kids ages 7-12 at-home magic training.\n\nThese potions and spells are not based on any witchcraft, New Age, or esoteric religion lore or rituals. This book is fantasy-fiction-style educational activity material for the young fans of Harry Potter, Descendants, and other books and films of the magic fantasy genre.\n\nIt helps kids\n\n• engage in fantasy play where they are the main character;\n• develop their independent reading habit and grow reading fluency with an easy, 1st-2nd grade core vocabulary (about reading level 4)\n• learn to organize and plan their own activities in advance by collecting and preparing potion ingredients (such as drying flowers, or orange peel, or collecting rocks).\nThe potion recipes and magic spells in this book use only safe everyday objects and substances you have at home or outside (like twigs, rocks, milk, sugar, salt, leaves, etc.), or common fruits and vegetables, like cucumber, apple, or orange. Absolutely no use of fire, household chemicals, or any items you can't purchase at a local grocery.\n\nIn this course we create potions which are not drinks: You sprinkle them around the house or outside. The only exceptions are a couple recipes from the Kitchen Magic genre (for example, fresh cucumber and basil enchanted water).\n\nAlong with magic, we'll learn a few facts of history and science, such as:\n\nWhat is the oldest tree in the world?\nWho invented glass windows, and what were windows like before glass?\nWhat is the Archimedes Principle? Why don't big heavy ships sink?\nWhat do salad and salary have in common?\nWhat is the meaning of Mon in Monday, Tues in Tuesday, Wednes in Wednesday, and so on?\nWho invented paper, and what did people write on before paper?\nWhat is the origin of the words 'paper,' 'book' and 'library'?\nWhat is the alchemical symbol for salt?\nWhere do cinnamon and cloves come from?\nWhat is the Ogham alphabet?\nWho caught the Midgard Serpent?\n...And more!\nI will also address the two questions my Magic Academy students ask me most often:\n'Are love potions real?' and 'Are fairies real?'\nI'd like to warn you, that at the risk of disappointing your child, I have to be honest answering these questions, since this is a school textbook, not a fantasy fiction novel like Harry Potter.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1730793266\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: RDV.1730793266.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Fet, Catherine\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This book is in excellent condition.
