Make Your Own Marauder's Map
By Jessica Jinn
 This is a great activity for young Harry Potter fanatics.
Preparation - You'll need:
- Crayons, colored pencils, markers, pens
- Pieces of parchment paper
How to Prepare Your Own Parchment Paper:
- Prepare freshly brewed (and very strong) coffee, a baking pan, drying rack, newspapers (or paper towels), candle, and sheets of paper
- Pour coffee into a baking pan
- Take sheets of 8.5"x11" paper and soak them one by one in the pan of coffee. (about 15 minutes)
- Once the piece of paper has turned colors, dry it out on a drying rack. Be sure to put newspapers or paper towels beneath the rack to catch and drips.
- After they've dried, you have parchment-like paper!
- For an extra "old" effect, light a candle and very carefully burn the edges of your piece of paper.
Steps - Have party guests follow these general directions of what we do know about Hogwarts on the Marauder's Map:
- The lake is to the south of Hogwarts
- The forest is to the west of Hogwarts
- The Whomping Willow should have a secret passageway
