CRAFT Y C HARACTERS
In Roald Dahl stories language is used to bring the characters to
life, and this is especially true in The Witches.
“Miserrrable vitches!”
“Feeble frrribbling vitches!”
“You are a heap of idle good-for-
nothing vurms!”
“Rrrotten rrree-pulsive little children”
“Children are rrree-volting!”

own Witchy words?

Those nasty witches have been at it again! See if you can work out their
boilsome, bubbling recipe and recreate their horrible formula.
THE WITCHES’ RECIPE:
YOU WILL NEED:
Pour in the Catspringer Serum until your
bottle is one quarter full.
A BOTTLE FOR YOUR FORMULA
(we suggest clear plastic)
Then fill to near the top with Oil of
Blabbersnatch, make sure to leave some
CATSPRINGER SERUM space for your formula to fizz and boil!
(water)
Add plenty of Gobblesquirt Snot until your
OIL OF BLABBERSNATCH formula is nice and bright.
(vegetable oil)
Crush or break up your Crabcruncher Claw
GROBBLESQUIRT SNOT and drop it carefully into your bottle. This
(food colouring) should have an immediate effect. Add more
Crabcruncher if your formula isn’t bubbling.
TABLET OF CRABCRUNCHER CLAW
(effervescent tablets) OPTIONAL EXTRAS:
Why not decorate a label for your bottle or
write down your recipe for later using the
template below.
My bottle can hold _____ml
of Formula 86.
¼ of _____ml is _____ml so
I need to add this much Catspringer
Serum.

SUPER SIM If all you have to hand is paper and pencils, you can still write mischievous
MISCHIEVOUS
Messages messages! Simply take two pieces of paper and lay one over the other.
© The Roald Dahl Story Company Limited / Quentin Blake 2020
Write your message on the top piece, pressing down very hard. Remove
this top sheet and destroy it, then pass the bottom sheet to a friend. They must shade over the
piece of paper with a soft pencil to make the message magically appear –
when no one is looking, of course!
If you don’t have much time but do have a white crayon to hand, you can use it to
write a message on white paper. Ask a friend to paint over it with watercolour
paint to reveal what it says!
This activity has been taken from the book Matilda’s How to be a Genius (pages 2-3).
