ScreamBlue Challenge Apology - Dad Hair Day/Dinosaur Face Painting

I'm sorry to say that due to the amount of stress and over-tiredness I suffered from yesterday, I couldn't do Day 6 of the ScreamBlue Challenge. However, the images Mr Heeler posts on his Tumblr account every time a new episode of Bluey airs over in Australia have truly let me see the episodes in person, which means new ideas are on the horizon, rising like the sun over the Pride Lands. This includes one example, 'Dad Hair Day', one of my story ideas based on Sheep Dog, where Dad orders a spell to get rid of his mullet but instead transforms him into a dinosaur! Speaking of, why don't you transform your kids into dinosaurs? This simple face paint tutorial will show you how:

Once you've done that, watch Zoo Of The Weird on iPlayer. Remember to howl along with Carla Black when she gets to the werewolf in her advert! By the way, don't you miss Carla Black? I do...

ScreamBlue Challenge Day 7 - Mirror Mirror & Housework


I was looking for activities based on reflections and I found this fun muddy zoo animal sensory play - perfect for getting those little zombie fingers dirty. Once you've done that, talk with your child about chores they hate and how they can make them more fun. This could lead you to build a DIY busy activity box. You can make signs for your activity box on Canva using Scream Street and Bluey characters, or you can make your own 'Fun Chore Box' designed to make the chore your child hates more fun. You can practise doing said chore by dancing around the house and doing what they most despise!

Watch Mirror Mirror on iPlayer and Housework on ABC iView (watch Mirror Mirror on iView too if you live in Australia):

Curry Quest: 6 Weeks In The Life Of I.B.F.Fs (Ft. Two Worksheets]

It's the day of the school fair, and Luke, Resus, Cleo, Bluey, Bingo and I are having fun since Mackenzie's mum painted our faces! But Bingo and Bluey are also very upset because their father Bandit has gone away on a six-week work trip, so I decide to spread the news to my family.

Also, be sure to check out some worksheets I did, where you have to review the new Bluey episode Sheep Dog, then write yourself and your family into Arthur's Perfect Christmas! I was going to save the Arthur one for my ScreamBlue blog, but...whatever.

Bluey and Bingo love to videochat with Muffin and Socks so they can all draw pictures together. When Muffin won't give Socks a turn, the kids discover what happens when you hog.
