Harry Potter would not be complete without the Harry Potter broom that helped him through many of his adventures in the seven books. As you would already know, it is the broom that serves as transportation for wizards and witches. This will bring them from one location to another. It is also one of the most important equipment, especially for Harry, in enabling wizards to play Quidditch, the ball game that is very popular in Hogwarts, their school. House elves however, do not use broomsticks in the Wizarding World to traverse because they use their power of Apparition.
The Harry Potter broom is the portable, easy to hide and cheap way to fly and travel for wizards like Harry. This is because wizards do not have the ability to fly without their brooms. While the first types of broomsticks proved to be uncomfortable, cushion charm was applied to them to make them easier to use. There were various types of brooms used in the Wizarding World, each one differing in price and capabilities. Some could carry a small child while others could accommodate the whole family. There are different types of broomsticks including Comets and Cleansweeps. Harry himself made use of two great brooms, the first one of which is the Nimbus 2000 which was from Dumbledore as sent through Professor McGonagall and the other being the Firebolt, which was given to him by his uncle Sirius Black. He used both mainly for the Quidditch game and at the Tri-Wizard Tournament.
The Harry Potter broom is easily one of the most magical and useful objects in the Harry Potter movies, particularly for Harry. This made Harry a Quidditch expert, enabling him to go from one place to another, making him able to fly, making it easier for him to fight the enemies, allowing him to run from foes (like the dragon during the Goblet of Fire series) and many others. It will never be the same to have the movie without the broomstick. Today, many toy versions of the brooms used by Harry can be purchased for your kid’s enjoyment. You can even order them via online sites that carry Harry Potter merchandise.
