To celebrate the September update of the Oxford English Dictionary and International Roald Dahl Day (it’s 100 years since the man himself was born) we want to hear about the words that your children think should be included in our diverse language. So whether you have ‘fluvlies’ (lovely flowers) on your mantel piece, or you enjoy nothing more than kicking through the ‘tree crumbs’ (leaves) in autumn, or even if you use the ‘lawn lower’ to trim the grass, before spinning a somersault on the ‘bouncoline’ (trampoline), then we’d love to hear from you. The winner will grab themselves fifteen awesome Roald Dahl paperbacks including Matilda, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and – everyone’s favourite – the BFG.
Win fifteen Roald Dahl Books, worth £69.95!
