KIDS TRIVIA

Detailed explanation-1: -To do this, Godric Gryffindor used his magical hat – henceforward known as the Sorting Hat – to decide which children should go into which house, and so it has been ever since with a yearly Sorting Ceremony that places each new pupil into their own new home.

Detailed explanation-2: -Legend has it that the hat once belonged to one of the four founders, Godric Gryffindor, and that it was jointly enchanted by all four founders to ensure that students would be sorted into their eponymous houses, which would be selected according to each founder’s particular preferences in students.

Detailed explanation-3: -While the sorting hat will appear in Hogwarts Legacy, you will be the one deciding the house you’ll be sent to. So all you have to do is select your preferred house once the choice presents itself.

Detailed explanation-4: -In the final book, Harry goes on to tell his son Albus that “the Sorting Hat takes your choice into account.” So you’ll never truly end up somewhere you don’t fit. Even if you’re not cunning, but you strive to be (like Malfoy), you’ll probably still end up in Slytherin.

Detailed explanation-5: -As for how the Sorting Hat decides the best house for each young student, it’s said to be based on the strongest qualities of each student, and while it rarely sent students to the wrong house, the Sorting Hat became notorious for refusing to admit when it made a mistake, and always backed its decision no matter what.
