It’s no secret that we’re huge fans of Roald Dahl. I’ve been reading his books with my 5 year old and working our way through Roald Dahl’s Completely Revolting Recipes book too. So far our favourite has been The Twits, my son loved the tricks they play on each other and we even cooked the Wormy Spaghetti recipe – although I refused his request to include some real worms!
I think my children are lucky to benefit from some amazing apps on the iPhone and iPad. I was so excited to hear about a new app based on The Twits called House of Twits and it has kept my children busy during half term.
House of Twits app
Explore the Twits’ house, including the filthy kitchen, Mr Twit’s shed and even the ghastly bathroom. Poke Mrs Twit’s glass eye, feed Mr Twit worms and play tricks to unlock mini games. Beware! Don’t make the Twits too mad or things could get ugly – well, uglier . . .YUCK! PLUS there are loads of secret ways to score Trick Points but you’ll have to find those for yourself . . .
- Choose to play as Mr Twit or Mrs Twit
- Discover multiple games in every room!
- Listen out for Mystery Parcels with extra tricks!
- Cook a disgusting dinner – spaghetti and worms, anyone?
- Sprinkle itching powder on the toilet seat!
There are no annoying in-app purchases or third-party advertising, so you can keep on tricking for as long as you want.
Win 1 of 2 copies of The Twits with scratch-‘n’-sniff stickers:
To celebrate the launch of the new app which costs £2.99 and is available from the App store I have 2 copies of The Twits to giveaway. But these are not just any copies of The Twits as they come with special stinky scratch-‘n’-sniff peel-off stickers to stick on to Mr Twit’s beard to make it even more disgusting!
For your chance to win please answer the question and leave a comment on this post via the Rafflecopter widget. The competition ends on 14th November and the winner’s name will appear on this post. Good luck! More competitions at ThePrizeFinder

October 31, 2015 at 12:58 pmMrs Twit got some pigs eye balls for Mr Twits’ dinner that night. She cooked some rice, then she put eye balls in Mr Twit’s dinner, covered them with sauce and cheese over the top so Mr Twit wouldn’t notice. Mrs Twit had meat balls with her rice instead of eye balls.
