For all of the almost four months Ivy had been at Hogwarts, she still hadn't yet headed down to the playground to have some fun. She'd been working hard, studying up in the library and had finally decided it was high time she stopped working and started acting like the elven year old kid that she was.
Over night there had been a fresh fall of snow over the grounds and that Saturday morning Ivy pulled on her warmest clothes, boots, scarf hat and gloves and ran outside straight after breakfast. She jumped down the steps from the entrance hall and landed with a thud in a knee high drift of snow. She laughed brightly and battled her way through the deep layer of the cold stuff and headed for the playground.
The grounds looked so pretty, all white and twinkling in the pale sunshine. And Ivy skipped, or tried to towards the swings...the amount of snow on the slide probably meant it would be out of the question unless of course she experimented with the fire charms she'd learned in their last lesson...hmm she'd think about it.
For the time being though, she brushed the snow off the seat of the swing; walking through it was one thing, sitting on it was another; and jumped on. Kicking up a shower of snow every time she kicked her legs to go higher Ivy laughed heartily, wondering if anyone else would join her in the snowy fun...a snowball fight could be on the cards even.
