Add a definition?
So, rather than a definition, you're looking for synonyms. (A dictionary contains definitions, and a thesaurus gives you lists of synonyms - words that have the same or similar meaning to whatever word you look up.)

So, if I did a layout about a child who has a silly sense of humor, to meet this challenge I would include other words that also mean silly: crazy, cheeky, saucy, audacious, fresh, sassy, smart-alecky, mischievous, playful, sly, wily...

As Jacinda suggested, you could do word strips all over the layout with those different words. Or, you could use them in a journaling block, bolding each of those words so they stand out. Or you could create a patterned paper for your background with all those words on it. Or use several of them in your title.

But the idea is to use multiple words that mean the same (or similar) thing.

If you need some help coming up with synonyms, one of my favorite tools is thesaurus.com. And another is Word Hippo's Synonym Finder.

Hope that helps!
