Roald Dahl Day


13th September is officially Roald Dahl Day across the world!

Take the Roald Dahl Day Challenge today, and see how many challenges you can complete


  1. Wear something yellow – Roald’s favourite colour!

  2. Wear one or more items of clothing backwards

  3. Drop "gobblefunk" convincingly into a conversation

  4. Swap a Roald Dahl book with a friend

  5. Talk backwards

  6. Tell a silly joke – Roald Dahl loved swapping these with his kids

  7. Play an "unexpected" prank

  8. Give someone a treat – Roald was a great believer in treats, whether it was a bar of chocolate or a lovely surprise

  9. Write your own revolting rhyme

  10. Make up an Oompa Loompa dance and get all your friends to join in!
(Hmmm... there's at least two people here who seem to think it's Roald Dahl Day every day!)


Roald Dahl's books in our libraries.


The Roald Dahl Day web site has lots of information, quizzes and fun things to do.
