All About Halloween
Urge CBBC To End Its Deal With The Pokemon Company!
Pokemon shouldn't belong on CBBC at all, mainly because of its heavy marketing schemes and cartoon violence. It should belong on channels where we are free to watch anytime, such as Pop and Pop Max. Today, we're going to persuade CBBC to end its deal with the Pokemon Company and get it to stop airing this and all other related Pokemon content!
1.Grab some paper and some markers or colouring pens and draw a picture of your favourite Pokemon in chains (mine would be either Pikachu or Vulpix).
2.Write, 'CBBC, Please End Your Deal With The Pokemon Company!' somewhere on the piece of paper.
3.Take a picture of your plea and ask your parents to share this on their social media accounts. Ask them to tag @PokemonUK and @CBBC!
4.Mail your picture to:
CBBC
PO Box 9989
Salford
M5 0DP
Remember, always refuse to watch Pokemon every Saturday on CBBC and encourage your friends and family to do the same!

The Pool/Taxi/The Beach/Pirates - 4 Activities In 1!
Because Gotta Be Done has done it again, I bring you four Bluey-themed activities in one - this blog entry is themed around The Pool, Taxi, The Beach and Pirates.
https://justdestinymag.com/diy-fruity-pool-floats/ - Bluey and Bingo use unicorn pool floats and water soakers when having fun in Uncle Stripe's pool.
https://www.messylittlemonster.com/2015/02/car-painting-and-car-wash-activity-for.html - Bluey and Bingo love playing with their toy cars, but most importantly....getting messy with them!
https://www.giftofcuriosity.com/ocean-in-a-bag/#:~:text=The%20kids%20started%20by%20scooping,the%20blue%20liquid%20watercolor%20paint%20. - Bluey sees, hears, feels and dreams the ocean every time she goes to the beach with her family.
https://www.mystorytimecorner.com/pirates-story-time-preschoolers/ - Chilli loves telling stories about pirates to Bluey, Bingo and Missy.
Talespin - Help Animals In The Entertainment Industry
Talespin premiered 2 days ago on Disney+, and while I was watching I noticed one thing wrong about how Baloo, Louie and Shere Khan are portrayed in the series, depicted wearing clothes and other unnatural accessories. The same goes to animals in the entertainment industry - every year, animals like lions, apes and elephants are cruelly abused and beaten just to entertain us. You can inform the Walt Disney Company about how cruel they're treating animals in the entertainment industry by informing them, Talespin style!
1.Draw a line in the middle of the paper you are drawing on.
2.Draw a picture of a real bear on top of the page and write, 'He's a real bear'.
3.At the bottom of the page, draw a picture of Baloo and Kit and write above them: 'They're cartoon characters'.
4.Write, 'Disney, please understand that Talespin is promoting the cruel trade of animals in the entertainment industry!' somewhere on the drawing.
5.Fold up the drawing and put it in an envelope. The address for Disney is:
Walt Disney Company
Attn: Fan Mail Department
500 South Buena Vista Street
Burbank, CA 91521

Promises - Library Role Play Area [For Bluey Recaps & Gotta Be Done]
I know, this activity should've been used if Loose Parts did the Bluey episode 'Library' as part of 50 Days Of Bluey, but I had to include this activity because Bluey and Bingo go to the actual library in this episode, and embarrass their dad by making him act like a toddler in front of everyone, including two dogs voiced by the women who did 'Gotta Be Done'. Make your own book nook so toddlers of your own can read, read, read! And remember - quiet!
5 Reasons To Go Screagan This January
It's Veganuary, a time to be nice to the animals who were meant to be eaten by us. Well, forget it! It's all about taking care of the residents of Scream Street this time! For all of October last year, our friends from Scream Street have been stolen from their parents, beaten and abused and subjected to a life of cruel torture during the filming of Series 2 of Scream Street. You can help them. Not only can you not watch Series 2 due to its disturbing, unsettling content, but you can also do these five friendly things to help be kind to the residents of Scream Street and any other monster that appears outside this place.
5.Create A Poster To Encourage Others To Watch Series 1 Instead Of Series 2. If you're stuck for inspiration, try taking heed from PETA's controversial billboard campaigns, except instead of celebrities you could use Scream Street characters. Examples of headings include 'CBBC Scalds Monsters To Death', 'Watch Series 1 Like It's 2015' and 'Watching Series 2 Kills: Choose Series 1'.
4.Write A Letter To Either CBBC Or Factory Telling Why Series 1 Is Better Than Series 2. It doesn't just have to be hand-written, emails will do very nicely if you're staying at home. Remember to stay true and honest to whoever you're writing to, and talk about the one thing you hate about Series 2 - don't talk about Dr. F and Six, though, because they're my favourite parts of the second series. Find their contacts by clicking the links.
3.Write A Version Of Takeaway Of Terror Centered Around Going Vegan. Sir Otto Sneer is worried about the amount of people harming animals by eating meat, so he sets up a vegan fast food restaurant to get more people eating healthy. However, his healthy substances turn the residents of Scream Street not into rats, but different animals entirely! You can use chickens, turkeys, cows, fish, sheep, pigs or any other animals in factory farms used for food. Check out the original episode on iPlayer for inspiration.
2.Try Vegan Foods At Your Favourite Restaurants. If you can't make it to the restaurant, you can try a takeaway instead. Click here to find the latest vegan food for this year.
1.Watch Scream Street Series 1 on iPlayer. As well as Scream Street, you can watch other monster-friendly pieces of media, such as Monsters Inc, Big Bad Beetleborgs, Young Dracula, the Tish Tash episode 'Interview With A Monster', Scooby Doo & The Goblin King (as long as it doesn't air on CBBC!) and Scooby Doo & The Ghoul School.
With more and more people trying these five steps, I'm close to getting more and more people watching Series 1 in place of Series 2 of Scream Street. Click here to find some more ways to go Screagan this January:

Tickle Crabs - Sand Foam Sensory Dough
Watch out! The Tickle Crabs are coming! Actual red shelled crabs come from the beach, but Bluey and Bingo are tickle crabs that come from the comfort of their own home - turned into a beach! When Bluey goes to the actual beach, she loves the feel of sand in between her fingers. She also loves the feel of sensory dough, too, and that's exactly what you're going to make - sand dough, au naturale! Bluey and everyone in her world doesn't wear clothes anyway.
The Claw - Fun Things Kids Can Do With Their Stuffed Animals
Bluey, Bingo, Chilli and Bandit played their Claw game with a multitude of stuffed animals. Mind you, my favourite part of the game was the very end, when Bluey and Bingo playfully attacked Bandit as Chilli cheered them on. Bluey and Bingo play other games with their stuffed animals too, controlling them like puppets and making them speak in funny voices. Maybe your kids would have fun doing the same!

I.B.F.Fs - Two New Stories - Jervis Bay & Time Travel
I've decided to replace my stories 'Movies' and 'Monster HQ' with two new original stories: 'Jervis Bay' and 'Time Travel'. Allow me to explain - these ideas popped into my head this morning, and now I'll tell you about it.
Jervis Bay
Jervis Bay is the real version of the Scream Street episode 'The Brown Lagoon'. In it, Mr. Watson is stressed out by the previous few weeks, but Mrs. Watsons suggests she, Luke, Resus, Cleo and me take him camping in Jervis Bay. We set off in the family campervan, and it's all smooth sailing when we get to the campsite, until we find our friends and their families are there: Luella, Dixon, Bluey, Bingo, Lila, Muffin, Socks, Mackenzie, Honey and Chloe. It seems like Jervis Bay is such a relaxing place - sit around the campfire, watch for whales and paddle in the ocean! Also, Jervis Bay is based on a real place over in Bluey's homeland of Australia.
Time Travel
Luke, Resus, Cleo and I recieve a surprise package one day - it's a rubber duck, but it's actually a time travel device that can transport us anywhere in time. Doing so, we transport ourselves to the events of four episodes of Scream Street and Bluey: Scream Clean, Magic Xylophone, Nightmare Neighbour and Cafe. This story is inspired by an Ice Age short I used to see a long time ago, named 'No Time For Nuts' starring Scrat.
