It has been 9 years since the last Harry Potter book hit the stands, and this Sunday as the clock strikes 11 :30 pm,  Potter mania will grip the world once again as Harry Potter And The Cursed Child goes on sale in bookstores across India. Well, if you are a 90’s kid, the chances are that you too grew up reading or watching Harry Potter and enjoyed practising magic spells in front of the mirror. Time flies and the once ardent readers turned parents. But what if some of these spells were real in our parenting world, so you could solve everyday parenting issues just by waving a magical wand! Dream no further! KSP gets you this crazy list that you wish were true in our lives! Potterheads unite!
Here are 10 Â Harry Potter spells and charms that parents wish were true!
1. Muffliato– used to distract people nearby (or those to whom the wand is directed) from hearing our conversations.
For all those times when you avoided discussing a topic with your spouse because you didn’t want your kids to know about it , the muffliato spell would work just like messaging your spouse on a private chat without using a mobile phone. Won’t that be just WOW!

It’s not easy working from home when you have kids around, especially when locking yourself in a room is the only way to attend those important conference calls. For all those times, using this charm would be like putting everything in your background on mute and no longer having to face embarrassing moments during crucial office calls.
