Today we're going to meet my rival Sam and his I.B.F.Fs - Clifford The Big Red Dog, Franklin, Little Bear, Rupert and Scooby Doo, but it won't be complete without not letting Bluey's friends get left out of creating imaginary friends of their own. First, make up an I.B.F.F for you (it may be your favourite TV character) or one of Bluey's friends. Maybe you can even design what Tina looks like! Afterwards, it's time to meet Sam's friends one by one. First, it's Clifford The Big Red Dog. Create your very own Clifford, or if you want instead of construction paper you can use red play dough to create a clay Clifford. Franklin's up next, so if your little one owns a Franklin soft toy at home, they can fill in this Franklin-themed writing journal to see what you and your green shelled I.B.F.F can get up to each day. I found no crafts relating to Little Bear and Rupert, but I found these fun colouring pages, most of Rupert's based on Rupert Bear: Follow The Magic. We're focusing on the Nelvana series at the moment, so it's no big deal. Finally, it's Scooby Doo, so print out and make this cute bracelet of young Shaggy and Scooby Doo. If you've got a favourite TV character you appreciate as a 'friend', use this worksheet to explain all the imaginary adventures you get up to together. Afterwards, watch some animated movies based around four of Sam's friends. My obvious choices include:
Clifford's Really Big Movie
Franklin & The Turtle Lake Treasure (watch Franklin's Magic Christmas if it approaches that time of year)
The Little Bear Movie
Scooby Doo & The Ghoul School
Wind down after a long day of making friends in fantasy with two books based on Clifford and Franklin: Clifford Goes To Kindergarten and Franklin's New Friend - I happen to like to illustration at the beginning of the Franklin story of Franklin hanging out with his friends near the lake. Or you can read from this selection of 31 books about Clifford - Clifford's Day With Dad, Clifford's Bedtime and Clifford's Family are my favourites from this list.
Watch A Nightmare On Scream Street on iPlayer and Tina on ABC iView (watch A Nightmare On Scream Street on iView too if you live in Australia):
Zzzzleepy bye-bye, Resus!
