Boggart building and other twitchy activities
* Boggarts? if you're not sure then a word of
explanation might help…Boggarts are the awkward cousins of the fairies. You'll
have read Fairy Stories, we are sure and you will know that Fairies are often
beautiful. Boggarts aren't. And that fairies are sometimes kind. Boggarts
aren't. And that fairies sometimes grant wishes. Boggarts? Not a hope!
But Boggarts are exciting, naughty, lumpy, bumpy,
hairy and stary….Boggarts are fun
