Bluey Friendship Card

With this Bluey friendship card, you can tell the ones you love how much you love them! I love this card because inside it's got an image of Bluey, Winston, Hercules, Honey, Coco and Mackenzie, just like they're portrayed in 'Circus'. Print it out and get creative! And remember, no matter how different friendships are, like Bluey with Jean-Luc and Bingo with Lila, it's important to remember that each friendship is one in a million!

Guess Who...Again...

Guess what popped up on CBBC's Breakfast Bites collection on iPlayer...

Scream Street, of course! But please, don't watch Series 2. Watch Series 1, for goodness sake! I'm so glad it popped up on there, it's for more than just Halloween, you know!

Drawing Activity - No Friends

In the short skit 'No Friends', Dixon learned about getting friends the easy way when he discovered Amy was sitting right next to him on the Buddy Bench. Create this poster to encourage others to be a good friend like Amy was to Dixon.

1.Grab your favourite pencils, pens and markers and a piece of paper.

2.Draw Dixon and Amy sitting on the Buddy Bench together. Remember, Amy is a white husky, so be sure to draw her in the style of the Bluey TV series.

3.Write somewhere on the page, 'Friends offer good advice'.

4.Put it up on your fridge or bedroom wall for everyone to see!

Group Activities - Trampoline & Cafe

Children play a variant of 'musical chairs' involving hula hoops and lots of bouncing!

I.B.F.Fs Story Time - How Do Dinosaurs Say Goodnight?

I always like to read this book at night with my siblings, as we always like to know what dinosaurs get up to when they want to go to sleep...

Group Activities & Cakes

The following is a series of group activities I made for Sally and her group. I'll update you as soon as I get them through to her!

The Claw - Children choose a soft toy with a placecard next to it subjecting a theme to a written story.

Tickle Crabs - Children engage in seaside-themed sensory play before colouring in a picture of Bluey and Bingo at the beach.

Markets - Children make their own market day right here in the learning zone!

Escape - Children write and film their own story with characters from Bluey, Scream Street or Tish Tash.

I.B.F.Fs - A Place To Sleep - Children find out animals' habitats and where they like to sleep.

Blue Mountains - Children consider the uses of our hands in everyday life.

Bus - Children recreate a bus setting before setting up some messy bus process painting.

Yesterday, I finally got to bake cakes! The cakes turned out squishy and chocolatey - just as I prefer it. They're so delicious you just can't stop talking about them, in fact I got to have some extra ones just because I had a rough day two days ago. Cakes make everyone's day!

I.B.F.Fs - A Place To Sleep

Luke, Resus and Cleo's quest for a new place to sleep continues! With the help from me of course.

Circus - Circus Train

Roll up roll up to Bluey's election day-aired circus! Meet Coco the acrobat, Mackenzie the lion tamer and Honey the lion as you make this circus train! Instead of doing lions and clowns and other stuff like that, you could do Coco, Honey, Mackenzie and Bluey in their respective circus roles. It'll be a blast!

Work - Five Little Speckled Frogs Sensory Play

When I'm thinking about Work, Bluey's most boring game ever, I'm thinking about how Bingo is portrayed in this episode - she's a frog, and she doesn't speak in this episode aside from the word "Ribbit!" If Loose Parts were to do an activity based on this episode, she'd include this froggy sensory activity with it. Best of all, it's based on a nursery rhyme!
