The Hogwarts Houses

The houses as children

Gryffindor: Always have scrapes on their knees, had a favourite soft toy and got defensive about it, lived for Saturday morning cartoons, would try to get away with not brushing their teeth; did not succeed, tried to make as many friends as possible; sometimes they were too much for the quiet kids.

Ravenclaw: Span around in circles until they got dizzy, criticised the story books they were read, didn't have many friends; but got really attached to that one special friend, liked to collect something, got grumpy if they weren't using their favourite cup.

Hufflepuff: "I'm not sleepy!" *Snoring two seconds later*, couldn't sleep with just one toy; the others would get jealous, easily bribed with treats, liked playing role-play games, had some sort of go-to comfort like sucking their thumb, fell over easily; this only got worse when they were excited.

Slytherin: Had the worst tantrums; I mean full on bawling; kicking; screaming fits, liked animals but felt nervous around them, sang along to their favourite songs in the car and asked for them to be played again a million times, liked to stare at the stars, didn't want to run until they were told to sit still.
