This week the digitally restored and first widescreen release of The BFG The Movie was released on DVD and Blu-ray. I love Roald Dahl books and The BFG was always one of my favourites. It was strange sitting down to watch a film from my childhood with the toddler but he loved it so I will be off to the library to find some Roald Dahl books to read together. To celebrate the release of the film I have a lovely competition for you, where you can win a copy of The BFG and Family Golden Ticket to the Roald Dahl Museum, details below.

The BFG The Movie is available to own on DVD and Blu-ray since Monday. To celebrate the launch there are some BFG activities which your little ones are bound to enjoy which you can download here.

    I always loved the BFG himself – he was so big and jumbly and because I lost both grandfathers at such a young age (so I had no memory of them) – he was kind of like the grandfather I imagined to have! All big and friendly!
