Disney Junior Characters Find Out Bluey Is Leaving

 


MICKEY MOUSE: You guys! You guys! Bluey's going away.
KION: Going away? For how long?
MICKEY MOUSE: Forever. To Australia.

BLUEY: I'm sorry, everyone.

ROLLY: Bluey says she's been dreaming of Australia so she and her family are moving back today.
BLUEY: Wow!

MICKEY MOUSE: Bluey, what kind of questions do you think going back to Australia is going to answer?
BLUEY: What's the meaning of life? Why are we here?
MICKEY MOUSE: I hope you're making the right choice.

VAMPIRINA: I'm gonna miss her...I'm gonna miss Bluey and I...don't know how to tell her!

DONALD DUCK: How are going to go on, Mickey? Bluey was our....friend.

MINNIE MOUSE: And we will all miss you, Bluey, but we know you must do what your heart tells you.

ALL DISNEY JUNIOR CHARACTERS: Bye bye!/Goodbye!/See you later!/We'll miss you!/Bye, Bluey!
MICKEY MOUSE: Goodbye, Bluey! Send us cards about your time on ABC Kids!
BLUEY: Goodbye!

Don't forget to let your child write a old fashioned letter to either Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy, Minnie Mouse, Daisy Duck, Kion, Miles, Doc, Sofia, Bingo, Rolly, the Muppet Babies and especially Bluey to tell them how much they miss them.

Operation Ouch Toothbrush Playtime

 

After seeing this scene in an Operation Ouch episode, I've decided to set up some fun activities themed around dental health for you and your child to do together, from Pre-K Pages. Check it out and get creative:

Haste Ye Remember The Mouse Ears...

 

Disney Junior is sadly leaving the UK tomorrow, including my good friend Bluey :(. But if you're signed into Pinterest, there's a whole range of Disney Junior activities themed around Mickey Mouse, Puppy Dog Pals and of course my favourite Disney Junior show Bluey which you can do with your child to remember the good times they've spent with Mickey and his D.J. gang.

Bluey's Family Have A Sad Announcement....

 

MUM: Okay, when we break the news to the girls, we need to do it in a way that doesn't make one of us seem like the bad guy - we need to let them know that we still love them...it's just that Disney Junior is going away tomorrow, along with Disney Channel and Disney XD.
DAD: Yeah, you're right. But look - it's okay. I'll start the conversation. If they have any anger, it'll be towards me. They can't be mad forever.
MUM: Wow, Bandit, that's very mature of you.
DAD: They always liked you more anyway.

MUM: Girls! Put your toys down for a minute. Your dad and I...daddy and I have something to tell you.
DAD: Girls, your mum and I love you very much.
MUM: So very much.
DAD: You are just the best girls in the gosh-darn world and we are so lucky to be your parents. And that's why...I'm raising your allowance by five whole dollarbucks!
BLUEY/BINGO: Yeah! Woohoo!
MUM: What?!
BINGO: Thank you, daddy!
BLUEY: You're the best dad ever!
MUM: Bandit, what are you doing? Girls - you're not getting a bigger allowance. Disney Junior is going off the air to make room for Disney+.
DAD: What?! No! Mum, why?!
BLUEY: Why are you doing this to Disney?
BINGO: It's the mouse house's fault!
*Everyone begins crying*
DAD: Those monsters!
MUM: It's about time I told them. If you don't have Disney+, then too bad. But luckily Disney Junior has a unique Youtube page that can get you anywhere Disney Junior related, so you can catch up with my favourite daughter and her friends Mickey, Kion, Doc, Sofia, Bingo - no offence, Bingo.
BINGO: None taken, mummy.
MUM: Rolly, Nancy and the others. Hit the link below and check out some of the awesome videos on there, including their superb craft tutorials with the silly and happy music my daughters love so much. There's a Disney Channel themed Youtube channel as well, so click both links and get exploring! We'll miss you as much as Bluey misses Jean-Luc:

When CBBC Rips Off Its Own Shows...

 

Luke, Resus & Cleo Review: The 'Hood: Learn With Bingo

 


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

The 'Hood: Baby Steps & Adventure

 

Baby Steps:
The gang enjoy looking at Bingo and Bluey's baby pictures and find their old baby bootees in the baby box. They decide to use foot painting to recreate a baby's first steps into the world - but Trafalgar's ends in a slip!
Adventure:
The gang set off in their imaginary hot air balloon on a pretend adventure around the world. Using their imaginations, they travel to many different places, ending on the moon where they have cheesy bread balls for lunch!

The 'Hood Ep.61: Learn With Bingo

 

In this educational episode of The 'Hood, Bingo is your instructor as you learn about letters, numbers, colours and shapes from her and her friends and teacher from Kindy! I have to admit, doing the part where Bingo talks about the letters of the alphabet is my favourite bit in the entire episode. For more alphabet related activities for you and your preschooler, head over to:

What Shall Sir Otto Sneer Do Today?

 

Shall he go to the park?

Maybe.

Shall he ride his bike?

Maybe.

It...It Can't Be!

 

No way! It can't be! Abney and Teal are back on iPlayer? Yes! I've been waiting for this for a long, long time! You pyromaniac Night Garden fans better check it out RIGHT NOW!

Luke, Resus & Cleo Review: Me, You, And Transformers Cybertron: Making Friends

 


RESUS: Why are we on the beach again?
LUKE: We're reviewing Me, You, And Transformers Cybertron: Making Friends.
RESUS: Where's Cleo?
LUKE: Enough questions, you stupid vampire, she's sleeping on the soft sand, and we have to wait for Furaha and Jetfire to turn up so we can see them playing together in person!
RESUS: Now, Overhaul thinks that his love of earth animals have made his entire life, and he talks to Haraka about Jungle Planet, which is depicted as Zubeneschamali.
LUKE: Zubeneschawhat?
RESUS: Zubeneschamali. Some people believe it's a green star in the sky, but some green stars depict the Constellations living in the sky. Hot Shot and Nakona and Upendi and Scattershot aren't getting the focus here either, and neither are Lanka and Allie.
LUKE: Wow...Furaha can fight Koba and try to pilot Jetfire to get him up into the air! What a clever cub!
RESUS: You know, she should become a pilot someday.
LUKE: She can be whoever she wants, she's only four, like Caillou.
RESUS: What?! That whiny little brat?
LUKE: If you compare Caillou and Johnny Test, they're both made by WildBrain, and you know it produces shows for CBBC as well. *gasps* Oh my goodness.
RESUS: What's that?
LUKE: Furaha nearly scratched Thundercracker's optic sensors out! And the scene in the fire realm with Megatron admonishing Koba is a bit disturbing, especially when you see a child being used in a Satanic ritual.
RESUS: They're using him as abuse bait? Those Decepticons...
LUKE: Things get better in the next scene though, Furaha overhears a conversation between Optimus and Vector Prime about how they can become their new family for now until they find their original family. The young cub discovers Jetfire's room!
RESUS: ......
LUKE: And he's got a soft bed, and lots of Nebulos-related attire.
RESUS: This explains why he came from Nebulos - because of his Australian accent.
LUKE: And you know our good friends from The 'Hood, Bluey and Bandit?
RESUS: I thought you'd never say that.
LUKE: The next morning, we see Furaha and Jetfire playing together and happily torturing each other with throwing pillows at each other and tickling each other until Jetfire promises to let her sleep with him.
RESUS: I don't think that's a good idea. Remember the controversy surrounding Noddy and Big Ears sharing a bed?
LUKE: Forget them, sleeping altogether in the same bed is a good thing, isn't it?
RESUS: Oh yeah.
LUKE: Where does the script end?
RESUS: Right at the point where Haraka and Overhaul spend a peaceful moment at the beach, much like when Bluey wanders the beach and follows her mum.
LUKE: I guess our friend Sybil got lots of Aussie inspiration from Bluey.
RESUS: She gets inspiration from other Aussie things too, like the film's composers, Garrangali.
LUKE: This goes for The 'Hood too, and - hey, it's Furaha and Jetfire! Cleo, wake up!
CLEO: *yawns* What did I miss? *gasps* Oh my god, it IS Furaha and Jetfire, and they're playing on the land and the sea. I also heard you talking about The 'Hood.
LUKE: Yeah, tomorrow, we're reviewing tomorrow's work, The 'Hood: Learn With Bingo.
RESUS: Be sure to check in tomorrow for our review on Learn With Bingo!

Look out for more Me, You, And Transformers Cybertron: Making Friends coming soon!
-Yours sincerely,
Sybil, Luke, Resus & Cleo

Me, You, And Transformers Cybertron: Making Friends

 

What's better than Bluey playing with her dad? Furaha playing with Jetfire of course! When Jetfire discovers Furaha sleeping in his bed, the two playfully torture each other with a pillow/tickle fight. Haraka and Overhaul meanwhile spend time on the beach, discussing the peacefulness of the place and how it compares to the roughness of the battlefield.

Hold On, Love Monster, It's Birthday Time!
