I have a headcanon that Hermione insists her children attend some primary muggle schooling before Hogwarts, just as she had done. Now, imagine Arthur Weasley attending his grandchildâs science fair, being the ultra proud grandfatherâŚ.and yet also completely geeking out over absolutely EVERYTHING.
Canon
âThat is a volcano, that is a VERY SMALL VOLCANO, how - young lady, how did you make this? Baking soda and food coloring? MARVELOUS!â
the kids would love him.
Never have I ever loved anything more than I love this
All the muggle teachers would think he was being so adorable, âpretendingâ not to know how potato batteries and mini-volcanoes work, fawning over the hard work the kids did on even the simplest the projects. And he comes every year, because after the kids have aged out (âgone on to some boarding school in Scotland,â the teachers say over bad coffee in the break room, âthey didnât seem the typeâ), he gets an honorary invitation to the fair every year, because he never stops making the kids feel smart and good.Â
âAnd this airy-o-plane, it flies by means of a⌠rubber band? Did I hear that correctly? No magic at all? Doesnât flap its wings like a bird? MARVELOUS! What an ingenious method of flight!â *looks around* âYou, sir! With the ribbons! This child deserves one of those prizes!â

This is so wholesome.Â
Arthur Weasley, as the Science Fair attendee we all deserve.
After a couple years Arthur Weasley brings his own ribbons. They shimmer in a way that makes everyone wonder what kind of ink he usesââsecrets!â he tells anyone who asksâbut theyâre beautiful. Theyâre coveted even more than the official ribbons, because they remind you that while he was heaping praise on you, you felt magical.

This is the kind of HP content I signed up for.
