CLEO: Have you ever got the feeling that a children's show without any interactive educational meaning can suddenly turn into Dora The Explorer mode?
LUKE: Now we have! Look at this - Learn With Bingo is made in the style of an old fashioned educational film from the 1970's.
RESUS: I have to admit, my favourite is where Bingo teaches you the ABC's.
LUKE: Yeah, it always reminds us of Yakka Dee for some reason - all those montages featuring Dee and her animated and live action friends always makes me dizzy, but this is similar to the aforementioned except it has characters from Bluey in it.
CLEO: Very well put.
RESUS: And about the numbers - Bingo's teaching math instead.
CLEO: Won't preschoolers like it?
LUKE: Nah, they'll like it as much as they love things like Dora The Explorer and Bubble Guppies.
RESUS: The long pauses allow time for the youngsters at home to shout out the answer to Bingo at home.
LUKE: That makes Bingo a child's friend like Bluey is a child's friend too.
CLEO: They also teach shapes and colours through fetching games, much like a mini game show, except a 4 year old heeler hosts and has her three friends and teacher from kindy as her contestants.
LUKE: What about us? We star in The 'Hood too, do we have a role to play?
CLEO: No, we don't star in the episode.
RESUS: What the episode is about depends on who stars in the episode - since it's an episode about learning, the kids from kindy and Miss Retriever all star in this.
CLEO: But still, I think the alphabet part is my favourite part.
LUKE: I agree.
RESUS: Yeah.
CLEO: Hey, look what I've found!
LUKE: Wait, before you click the link...is Learn With Bingo also the alternate name of the Bluey Season 2 episode 'Bingo'?
CLEO: Maybe. Anyway, look at this link. Parents can expand the experience more with activities centered around the original version, just named 'Bingo', including activities about kiwis and problem solving, but not ABC's and 123's and all that stuff about sharing, another important value learnt in Learn With Bingo.
RESUS: Parents! Click the link below and try to find some activities to arrange for your little Bingo wannabe. It's a great way to expand their horizons on learning and to help your child learn and develop:
Look out for more episodes of The 'Hood coming soon!
-Yours sincerely,
Sybil, Luke, Resus & Cleo
I'm loving The Hood and I like the link.
