Care of Magical Creatures - HW #2

What are a few supplies that you'd need to take care of magical creatures? Better yet, are there any around the house or easily gotten a hold of? Let's ponder this for a moment.... ok, here we go.
  1. Football helmet - must protect the face from claws and teeth (well, to a certain extent).
  2. A bottle of water - working around dragons can be a bit dehydrating!
  3. Snorkle - to help with breathing under water (b/c I haven't mastered the Bubble-head Spell)
  4. A CD of soothing, classical music - because they say music soothes the savage beast
  5. Wellies - caring for magical creatures is messy business, better to have footwear that can handle it

Ok, pop quiz, hot shot! How well do you know House Elves (or rather, how well do I know House Elves)?! Yikes!

  1. Please describe the physical appearance of a house elf.

  2. Kreacher is the house elf of which wizarding family?
    The Black family
  3. What is Hermione Granger making for the house elves?
    Hats
  4. How do you free a house elf?
